I really don't know! But, honestly, I'm not very good talking with females in general (yeah, shyness). So I suppose that it's logical that I haven't met a lot of female gamers lol. When I was playing WoW (I quit, it was like a drug... :P ) it's true there were a lot of female players in the guild (at least they said they were females haha), but I've never actually met them so, I don't know.

I think part of WoW's structure forces socializing, esp. when end-game content is concerned.  You have to communicate in-raid, spur of the moment, so you quickly get over shyness (I can sympathize to a degree...though, I'm simply more jaded/closed to relationships...I'd imagine its easier when you simply don't let that part of your mind surface), or you quickly find a new raid group that works for you.

Yeah when your raiding at times with a group you know and connect with then tis always a good laugh on teamspeak regardless of gender, but I actually have joined pugs with some of the girls from my own guild and they'll join vent/ts but keep their gender quiet if the leaders or loud kids in the groups seem to think the whole game is a sausage fest it's just easier to not shock teenage boys with the thoughts that some of the people they're communicating with are female, could knock the keyboards off their laps :D
