Girls and Games

I've noticed that "women as lesser" applies to video games too. Which isn't fair really, because if you were in this room right now with all us girls you'd understand we're very good at video games. All sorts too! We've got Mortal Kombat, Guitar Hero, Super Smash Brothers and all sorts of things... Video games are meant for all sorts of people. Not just boys. I mean, duh, its just moving some character around on a screen with a controller. Is that so hard? Can anyone gender be better at hand-eye coordination? And if you're technically speaking, women would be better since our minds scientifically move faster than boys and can process more at once than boys.

Basically, its a silly stereotype.
