This is not a reality. If they even get close, guess what? It Rockband, Guitar Hero and Tetris. Or some Bejeweled knock off crap on some website. Especially women around my age. If they touch it at all. There's still a general stigma about video games that it's meant for "kids" or someone "lower" than they feel they are without actually thinking about how they entertain themselves. Because generally, playing video games is still "a waste of time" over just sitting there and watching TV or reading a book. As if it makes a difference at all...:roll:

I am a girl. And I love videogames. Besides sex, it is my favorite thing to do. And read. but gaming comes first. I do not like Rockband, Guitar Hero is ok, and Tetris is a classic. My favorite video game is Okami, along with Ocarina of Time, and Shadow of the Colossus. So please, don't generalize females like that. I'm not a feminist, nor do I want to sit and argue about it, but there are some women out that they enjoy real video games. And just for the record, I do not look like a man. :P And, I'm not shocked to find that some men spend more time on their consoles than with the real world. Your console can't nag, and argue, and annoy the p*ss out of you. Well, for 360 owners, the latter is quite possible. But either way, that's not all men. My boyfriend would have sex with me over video games any day. Over anything. lol, You tried to prove a point, but that didn't prove anything.
Of course he would have sex with you over a video game anyday... he's human. He does what feels good. Video games and sex both feel good... but the difference here is that video games, like you said, do not nag. Not only that, but you can get lost in video games... you can't really get lost in sex. There isn't a story to sex. You do it and you're done.
It's not like during sex he's thinking "Gee... this is fun and all, but I sure can't wait for her to start telling me about all the things I do wrong!"
Generally, I don't think men prefer video games over women, they just prefer the fact that they can use their console whenever they want without having to worry about commitment, and contrary to what you may think, I doubt your boyfriend's any different.
I'm not here to judge.... I mean he's with you because he likes/loves/committed to you, I'm sure, because there are people like that out there, but using the fact that he likes to have sex with you as a basis for claiming he's different from the men who prefer video games over women is... lol, wrong.
Ha, I didn't really mean to write it that way. I wasn't trying to say my boyfriend is like all men, or not like all men, just that he would rather do something with a human than with his ps3. I read, a lot, and sometimes I prefer reading to real life. Because I agree, you can get lost in video games and in reading. I guess I'm just confused, because my sexual life is so different than what you are describing. I can get lost in sex, and I use it as a way of escape more frequently than video games, because it's a phsycial satisfaction. And as far as there being no story, have you not heard of BDSM or role playing? You can turn your sex life into something akin to a video game. I guess it just depends on one's level of commitment. And please, don't think I'm stereotyping by saying this: most of the men that I know personally do not put as much commitment and effort into their sex lives as they do to the latest RPG or shooter. and there's nothing wrong with that. You should put effort where you want to, but with video games that effort is satisfying one person: you. Whereas with sex, your lack of effort is hurting someone. Unless of course your partner doesn't care either way either. And for me, sex isn't just over when it's "done", because there is an emotion level of sex that stays with you. I'm not talking about one night stands here, or hook ups, I'm talking about sex in a relationship. Even in an open relationship. I agree with what you said though. However, in some relationships, you can "use the person" whenever you want, just like your console. :P And he doesn't really play video games as much as I do anyways, so sex is a better option for him most days.
