When I was in college, I worked part time in a video game store and the same basic thing happened. Not as much as when mom’s would drop by, but if an actual gamer girl would enter the store, a hush would fall over the room.
What happens when a female leaves a comment on ChurchMag?

Classic.

She gets a nice thank you email from Eric Dye. : ) But nerdy-techy-geeky worlds are male dominated, it’s the truth. It’s hard to break through the tech-talk, super-hero, 8-bit wall of guy nerds. It’s even worse when you are an ‘ahem’ more MATURE female.I get totally dissed. I am going to meet with several MATURE women tonight to talk about how, why and where to start blogging. Think they will feel a little intimidated to enter this digital area? Yes – but they are willing to learn, and I say more power to them.
And thanks again for email acknowledgement you have sent for every comment I have made at ChurchMag. I know it is an automatic reply that is sent to everyone,but it’s still appreciated!

I’m a girl and I comment here. I guess we’ll find out. Personally I think you guys are okay with males and females commenting. Great post.

I always feel sorry when a girl joins a server and starts talking on her microphone either people freak out and are overly cool to her, or they sexually harass her using language i’m sure their mothers do not know they are saying.
Eric Dye says
Right. I think? You’re comment sounds like SPAM, Eric. Maybe I need more coffee …

The same thing happened when I walked into the car lot and asked for a 5-speed. One salesman only spoke to my husband, after we clearly told him the car was for me.
Another salesman on another lot made me so irritated. My husband knew the look on my face; the guy walked RIGHT PAST the 5-speed and I stopped – 10 paces ahead of me by then, he said to my husband, “I thought the car was for HER…” I saw my hubby step between me and the salesman, as if to protect him…I turned my back and went to the car, without a word, leaving the salesman standing there wondering what just happened, and my hubby started to tactfully negotiate an exit for himself with the guy.
OK, I read here all the time. I don’t remember posting. So, your point. 🙂

P.S. But I still drive a 5-speed…

#WINNING!
Living in Italy, EVERYTHING (or very, very close to it) is 5-speed.
