Why?

Is it because of my usual serious demeanor?

Hmm...I guess that's a part of it. I've always despised them myself as well, so it's the perfect storm of amusement ;p

My best friend likes them too, and I usually make fun of her, so who am I to discriminate based on gender lol

I never was into sports either. Also, I thought video games was stereotypically a male interest as most video games are geared towards a male audience? What video games are you playing?

I suppose you could view it as one of my few male interests, but really (much like Annabel's jeeps ;p), its more a form of escapism.

I play JRPGs, some interactive movie type games (Heavy Rain-type) also some Civilization on PC.

From what I've read, its not at all uncommon for people with gender issues to be into this kinda stuff. Makes sense. Anything to escape from one's body for a little while. Immersion can be a useful distraction.

I don't play video games nearly as much as I used to btw....but I still do from time to time.
