She didn't say that roleplaying was male _dominated_. Roleplaying
games are "male" in the sense that "The Destroyer" ("Remo Williams")
series of novels is "male"... written by males for an assumed-male
audience. That some women might read them is a minor blip... it's
men's action-adventure. Roleplaying games are the same... they're, by
and large, men's action-adventure.
So the paradox is, she's a woman who enjoys men's action-adventure.
(Gaming, at least... she has derogatory things to say about "The
Destroyer". But then, I don't care for them either.)
