I actually have an idea for what I'm going to be playing tonight. I took a nap earlier and dreamed of a tall narrow house atop a wooded hill with a narrow driveway curving up the hill to the back of the house built in the Sims. And, ya know what, I think I'm going to fire up the Sims 4 and recreate that house from my dream!

Well, not ALL the video games I like are violent.... err... just most of them. Lol. Besides Sims 3 and 4, I also like BeamNG (kind of a car physics simulator, racing game, and open sandbox game), Automation, and Thief Simulator... which is a game about crime, robbing people's houses, but you actually immediately game over if you try to kill someone.

Back in the beginning of my relationship, games we liked came up. And my boyfriend showed me a game he loved playing in his teen years on an old computer in his old room.
"Carmageddon", that was an extremely violent game, which luckily did not have the graphics to show how violent it actually was.

This might be a little "sexist" to state, but while girls/women may play violent video games from time to time, it's usually a thing that boys/men usually partake in. While female gamers usually tend to stick with less violent games. Now I'm curious about statistics...

Definitely the case in my household.

Well... that didn't take long... lol

"Not surprisingly, boys have been found to be significantly more likely than girls to play violent video games in many studies (e.g., Kasumovic, Blake, Dixson, & Denson, 2015; Olson et al., 2007), and the effect from gender is notable as being a substantively powerful predictor as well (Olson et al., 2007)."

Although this one is a little more surprising, as I figured the numbers would have been at least a little closer...

"A study of freshmen at UCLA found that 80% of female respondents stated that they play less than 1 hour of video games a week , while only 35% of male respondents could say the same. In terms of hardcore gamers, those playing more than 20 hours of video games a week, 87% of these a male and just 13% are female."

I was about to say, I guess that's where the stereotype that gamer guys lust after gamer girls come from, because they are far an few in between. But with mobile gaming being significant, I figured that the numbers would be higher from women that regularly play mobile games.

But yeah... definitely similar here. As while the sex poll indicates that it's 3/4 men users and 1/4 women users on this site, I have a feeling that it's actually MUCH less, and the poll has likely been corrupted by catfish men pretending to be "zoo women" for personal gain.

This might actually have merit. Even if more females are starting to play video games, mobile platforms might very well be the "big" "console" for females.
But, I have even been hit on while playing Word Feud, so those kind of guys are pretty much everywhere.

I would imagine that most users have not even made a vote in those polls. People just here for the porn are likely not partaking in any polls.
And we don't need a study to know that an extreme majority of the porn consumers are male.

Even my mom, who is definitely NOT a gamer in any traditional sense, likes playing Words With Friends multiple times a week. And, while it's basically an advanced board game for mobile devices, it's still a virtual playable game, a video game. There's also stuff like Angry Birds and Candy Crush which are basically time wasting games you can play on the toilet to pass the time.

I still remember trying to get my mom to play GTA Vice City... it was like handing advanced alien technology to an 17th century farmer. Lol

Could be... although one of the first things I did here was answer pretty much as many polls as I could and replied to all the ones that I felt I could contribute something to, to quickly add some posts to my count at the time. Still though, I'd imagine the ratio is probably closer to 1:10 if not even higher like 1:20 for women/men. Not what the poll indicates in the slightest. But perhaps those that actually answered the poll are more likely to be the users that actually contribute to the forum instead of just lurking porn... who knows? Even then the numbers seem way too high.

We do have tens of thousands of users with no posts at all or just posts in the porn section.
And those are likely 49 out of 50 times men.
I don't have any empirical data to support this, but.... eh, heck. Brb.

Update!

Well, turns out that I was a little off in my estimation, but not by much.

Fascinating that porn consumption increase for women while they are seriously dating, to decrease when they snatched the guy and are engaged/married.
Maybe search for inspiration while seriously dating to increase the chances of a proposal?
