I have a suspicion that there are way more men in the world than there are women. People say that there are roughly equal numbers, but it certainly does not seem that way. When I was in school, there were only about 3 girls out of about 200 students in my department. At work, most of the people in the company are guys. And in the SEIV community, it's mostly guys. I go to the gym and it's mostly guys there. Everywhere I go, it's mostly guys! In my estimation, the ratio of males to females in the world is not 1 to 1 but somewhere in between 10 to 1 and 100 to 1.

I think you may be right!!! Ever seen how many women work in Land Surveying? Must be some kind of government coverup.

I guess the 4x genre isn't very attractive to women. Why? Who cares, women are beyond the comprehension of mortal minds.

My wife is from Roswell, and I understand her.

Nah, girls don't care about strategy games in general. They kind of have their feet on the ground, if you know what I mean. I've tried a zillion times to get my wife to play, and the only ones I got her interested was in Caesar 3 and Simcity 3000. Who knows, maybe girls are not capable of abstract thinking... .

My girlfriend often gets really hooked on soap operas. For a while now I've been toying with the idea of getting "The Sims" to try to draw her into gaming...

I prefer to avoid generalizations about why women appear to avoid this game; however, in my particular situation, my girlfriend has a VERY low tolerance for micromanagement. Not to mention that she prefers a somewhat faster-paced game (not first-person-shooter twitch-game fast, but faster than SEIV).
