I'm kinda reminded of a friend of mine. He has a friend who
is black, but he wasn't sure of what exactally was 'politically correct' to
call him. So he approached his friend with the question of what was the
'correct' way to refer to his race. His friend told him "How about 'human'?"

My point is that men and women aren't stereotypes. Granted, movies and TV
state otherwise, but people are people. The best female character / male
player I'd seen was played as a regular human being (Ok, she was elven.)

>Oh - I have met nice girls that like to Kill - well atleast be really nasty.

This may explain the female paintball players I'd seen (and the nicknames!
Hellfire, Rambette, Hellcat...).

Come to think of it, the women are usually nastier than the men! Yeesh!

"It's not like talking with people. With people, anything can be said and
nothing matters. Words and words and words. You go to a party... people
sit around and say things. Anything. Just to talk. Put forth views and
debate them. Sometimes you get a new idea. Sometimes something changes"
