Paradox four: roleplaying is a male game.

Not half as much as either model railways or going to prog-rock gigs. 
More women are into roleplaying than trains or music in 11/17 time that 
nobody can dance to....

Returning to the subject, it's been my experience that roleplaying 
*isn't* totally male dominated. Most of my FtF roleplaying is at 
conventions nowadays, and games without at least one woman are the 
exception rather than the rule.

OTOH, there's currently only one woman in the 12 players in my two Kalyr 
games, but there are five female PCs. Then the one woman player is the 
one playing the munchkin combat monster.
