I don't get why grown men play games either. I can't play games for more than few weeks for past 8 years. I tried to get myself hooked on WoW - no result. Diablo 3 - sorry, no. Skyrim - bored. Fallout 3 - bored. New Simcity, bought the game, couldn't play it, it's dull and broken.
All of them are based on simple game loop. Shit just repeats itself. Do this, do that, repeat. All of them have perfect strategies, paved ways, borders and limits, it doesn't let you be creative or go your own way.
The only game I can think of that is somewhere close to my ideal game is Minecraft.

Read Everything Bad is Good for You, it presents a very compelling argument about vidya games providing cognitive exercise.

I don't see any point posing that argument simply to make women interested, though. And the OP is asking about gamer guys being "bigoted and ignorant" and then segues into how they don't get out of the house. Whatever the fuck she means by "bigoted and ignorant" is a complete mystery and I don't see anyone asking her to elaborate...

... Maybe she's just meeting guys who would rather beat Shadowmere to death with a club than put up with her shit.

It's a bold move by gamers. Let's see if it pays off.

I think it depends on the gamer. I don't game nearly as much as I used too, but always had girls over. This was pre-redpill, and I didn't understand that they wanted to play with my dick and not play little big planet, oh well lol.

Gaming isn't the problem, not knowing game is the problem.

I did not play video games until highschool when I needed something to do that wouldn't get me hungover or burnt out for my sports.

Video games can help with stimulation and mental quickness. I'm not clear in neuroscience, only psychological anthropology, however there is a built in reaction and quick thinking used in some games. Some people can not do this and they suck at video games for it, some people have a natural skill for video games and I felt like I was one of them.

FPS games were my thing and I loved it, do not play them anymore but I plan on getting back in to it a bit.

Just like reading books and studying, you can do it too much and some people will just never be good at it. But for most, a little variation in mental activity is a great thing and will contribute at least a little bit when used in moderation.

I love video games and my chosen career involves them, but they are far from the only important thing in my life.

I've sorta lost my interest in gaming, but you're doing it wrong if you are justifying your personal hobbies and interests to women, I know successful high status men (being objective not sycophantic) who game and to be honest, when you consider how much time women spend on social networking sites, gamers have nothing to be ashamed of.
