Maybe. You would have to pay me a lot of money to get me to play Quake. But I have more male friends than female friends, too. When I was growing up, my outspokenness turned people, both men and women, off, and I think it still does. For years, I have been the only working woman in our neighborhood - until a couple of months ago, some people bought a house at the end of the cul-de-sac, I think the wife works. One of the next door neighbors spent a long time explaining how the wife is the jewel of the home and does not belong in the work environment. It doesn't take much from me other than polite disagreement for people like him to be offended. His wife is now afraid to talk to me.
