Anecdotes from me indicate that most women playing F2Ps are free only players because their significant others play and they want to share their hobby or whatever. There are those glorious ones that pick up a game and go bananas just because they wanted to, but they're far more rare. I was just wanting to know if the actual stats matched my experiences.
Man, I don't even know where to begin on this one. First, let me burst your assertion with this question: What if the woman's significant other is also a woman?
I play games within and without the guild alongside female players who are every bit as passionate and obnoxious as male players can be.
But as we continue to carve out the general and overriding notion that women are equal to men, why would gaming be any less different than other topics? The "rare" ones you mentioned are not as rare as you might think, in spite of your personal experiences. I think you have to broaden your horizons to include all gaming genres, not just the ones you're interested in.
