Why women seems more interested in roleplaying in their hobbies and IRL?

Yes, their 10000 waifu simulators definitely do not exist and men definitely to not dominate table top role playing games. /s

I do not think this is the case. What women get interested in games like Dragon Age, Mass Effect and The Witcher is the interpersonal relationship part. The really heavy fantasy role playing aspects seem more to be dominated by men.

I grew up with a bunch of D&D and WoW dudes, it's hilarious to me that you think men don't enjoy living fantasy lives.

EVERY woman I know that plays the sims actually spends more time throwing in the cheat codes, dressing them up and designing houses. Very little time actually spent “playing” the game.

As for reading? Men look at porn, women tend more towards reading it and fantasize in a very different way than men. It’s a far more cerebral experience from what I’ve been told.

TRP tells you shit obviously. Men don’t constantly seek out their own personal power fantasy or expressions of dominance no matter how contrived?

Every time a guy goes to the gym he is fantasizing about the life he is going to have when he gets a little more fit.

humans fantasize. It’s our imaginations and creativity at work. Male or female we are in a perpetual state of attempting to live in or acquire a fantasy.

More or less is not the same as different.

We're not more interested in that stuff, both men and women want lives and fantasies in which they are the protagonist and great and wonderful things come from them and to them, just when you see us being interested in that stuff as a male it catches your eye more than it does when men are interested in it AND you feel more motivated to ask why.

I can't wrap my head around the idea that women like any kind of RPG. RPGs to me are Dungeons and Dragons and Final Fantasy and shit like that. Women hate nerdy shit and that includes that nerdy shit.

They liked The Sims because it let them manipulate and ruin people's personal lives for their own enjoyment, which is basically the equivalent of Grand Theft Auto for men.

all fantasy is for women and children, anyone who likes it is a woman

Look at urban fantasy novels as well as fantasy.

Women want sparkling vampires and werewolves chasing them for their...love. Or the Outlanders series where British chick goes back in time and falls in love with a rugged Scottish lord.

Dudes want shit like the Dresden Files that deals with a magic private eye that gets mixed up into cool dude shit like the mob or werewolves trying to tear them apart.

Men playing fantasy war games is still a passive activity.

Lame. I thought this would be about sex role playing.

TRP tells us women like to think that their life is a movie and they're main heroine in it. And it seems like women enjoy thoroughly imagining fantasy lives.

Which is projection because alot of red pilled guys seem to think life should be more like porn where the hot cheerleader just sucks the nerd off. Elliot Rodgers is a good example of this.

For example, it seems like women en masse way more interested in Sims

Im sure you're trolling judging by your username, but this this still needs to be address men were paying Belle Delphine for her bathwater and are MARRYING THEIR BODY PILLOWS!

I can't relate. I enjoy crafting, shooting/killing things, and XP in RPG games. Exploration as well. I played Fallout 4 for a while and I could care less about the "interpersonal relationships". I absolutely hated it when one of my followers would want to talk to my character (which was a male) when I was trying to go somewhere or do something. I would have used Dogmeat as a follower more often, but he got in my way a lot while I was stealthing around. The damn dog would literally walk in front of my character when I was sneaking into a room or hallway.

One of my favorite games is Monster Hunter and I enjoy the battling of the large creatures and crafting armors/weapons. Cutting off tails is really satisfying.

Male and female RPG's are totally different markets in 2019. Women who smell like old milk play Final Fantasy. Men who smell like older cheese play The Witcher. In both cases the only real difference that separates the markets is the aesthetic and not much else. Women want glamorous soft boi's with a dark side. Men want hot women who don't play games(Except Yennifer I guess, but she's kinda grandfathered in).

Though I'm not sure if RPG women are a good indicator of women as a whole. More of them want to fuck this guy than this guy or this guy. This guy may as well not even exist. But given that the most popular options for men were also weird aliens even though the devs put in a woman like this and gave her a body with so much TNA it caused Stevie Wonder to see again I think gamers are just weird. Chad and Stacy better watch out because their asses are going beta the second we find E.T.
