Ya, I get the funny looks, etc. when I go gaming at our local RPG spot in
town.  There are only two of us "wimmin" regulars there, but it's gotten
easier since I started gaming with the group her husband runs.  We still get
profuse apologies whenever one of the guys starts swearing or plays some
music they think we'll find offensive . . . most of the time, the repeated
apologies irk me more than the "incident," though.

BTW, I used to kick my boyfriend's ass in Magic and Jyhad!  ;-)
