What the fuck are you on about.
I'm not telling you theoreticals. At 1st level, D&D is incredibly basic, and designed to be so that even largely retarded players can still learn how to play the game if they actually want to.
But, we're not talking about someone who actually wants to learn. We're talking about the classic wife/girlfriend dragged to a game because she knows how much her husband/boyfriend cares about it and she feels obligated to spend time with him. She wants to pretend she shares interests with him, wants pretend to be open to new things, etc.
It's no different than the girlfriends who go to sports games, except those girls are happy that they are not going to be quizzed about anything more difficult than maybe who won the game. With D&D, even something like "Roll the d20 to attack" is a lot more information than they're willing to commit to, because even remembering which die is the d20 is brain space they're not interested in wasting.
This isn't a male/female thing though. Guys get dragged to things by their girlfriends/wives too, and they need to pretend they care and pray there's not going to be tested on it later. No matter how much you love someone, going to their 3rd cousin's wedding and then being asked to remember what both the bride and groom's names were two weeks later is going to be a struggle. Having to remember which is the d12 and which is the d20 two weeks later is roughly the same challenge for people who just don't give a fuck.
