Why do women love DND so much?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNNBjVmNbQI

Everyone who posts in this thread will get their ass raped by me

>>96219036 (OP)
In my experience, they don't. They like making characters, they like playing improv theater, but they hate playing D&D as an actual game. It's complaints and frustration every time the rules don't just let them narrate their fanfiction.

In fairness, this also applies to like 50% of the male player base too, but with female players it's like 80%.

>>96219054
Nobody cares about your fetish faggotry.

>>96219067
D&D has only itself to blame for its "theater kid" audience. It's who they market to, to great success unfortunately. Luckily you can always just play good games instead of D&D.

Fantasy is one of the most popular genre's amongst women. DnD is one of the most popular works of the fantasy genre. It's not all that surprising.

>>96219723
Warhammer sucks even more. At least with DnD you can play homebrews.

>>96219036 (OP)

Women with autism think like guys and develop niche interests. They actually care about stuff like history unlike normie women. These types tend to hate the creepiness/staring from the LGS denizens so they'll usually play with a university club or private group of friends.

The other main group of women attracted to niche nerdy hobbies are BPD girls. They love the insane amount of attention and gifts they get by being the queen bee of a group that's overwhelmingly guys and a handful of less attractive women. BPD women are life-ruiners and best avoided but if you're an inexperienced sensitive guy you think you've won the lottery when you meet one("wow, this girl likes death metal and DnD AND she asked me out first!").

>>96220395
Imagine, for one second, that you have a hobby you like because you like it, not because you just want to jump on a bandwagon.
You love that hobby, everything about it, and you want to share that joy with as many people as possible.
Newer people enter the hobby. They want things about it changed. They keep complaining, either about things that you like the most about your hobby, or things in your hobby that don't actually exist.
You love everything about your hobby, and having these things changed would lessen your enjoyment of it, and you try to tell people that some of the things they're complaining about don't exist, and a lot of the things they don't like can be ignored.
Their response is not cordiality, but shit-flinging to make you look bad.
Now there's enough new people in the hobby to overwhelm the people who once enjoyed the hobby, and you're being excluded for the way you enjoyed it. You're a villain for liking it the way it was.
There are ways you can still enjoy the hobby, but you have two choices: enjoy the old way with a small, secular group who can't be replaced if anything happens, or "enjoy" the new way and lie to yourself.
Then, as you see discussions about the hobby, you see history revisionists flipping the script on you, and making exaggerated strawmen to shit on you.

How would that make you feel?

>why do women love inserting themselves in spaces dominated by lonely men who will shower them with gifts and fight for their attention
It's a mystery

>>96220509
Just stop playing 5e, or D&D in general. Play good games with good people that you like. The general trend of the "industry" has absolutely fuck all to do with what happens at your own table, or even the tables at your FLGS.

For fucks sake, gaming has literally always been by and for small groups of likeminded people to get together and enjoy themselves. If you ever played a game before the year 2010, or 2025 for that matter, you would know this.

>>96220691
Keep indulging in your retarded fantasies of victimization, the rest of us will be playing games.

>>96219067
Having braved the wilderness of online play back in the early days of 5e, can confirm. The vast majority did nor know the rules and were extremely hostile towards any encouragement to learn said rules. For them it was all about play-acting and drama, not about trying to play a game with rules in a strategic or tactical way. Their enthusiasm levels cratered every time combat started, especially if they wern't allowed to make up shit to bypass the rules or make themselves look super awesome. Shit like expecting to be able to talk a 100+ HP enemy into killing itself because they have high Charisma, or thinking that because their character is fighting a rival, they should be able to shrug off damage because "this personal" and they're "that determined to end this bitch". (These are actual things I have witnessed.)

Also saw a TON of characters who were basically between the ages of 18 and 24 and SOMEHOW more competent, knowledgeable, and badass than characters with decades more adventuring experience. I have never seen a female player play a "grizzled old veteran" character where this would make sense, unless early-20s is considered old now. Thus applied even when playing races that live centuries like elves.

>>96220894

That's just PCs.

>Also saw a TON of characters who were basically between the ages of 18 and 24.

Last group I played with had a woman in her 30s. Her character was an 18 year old elf girl. Originally the character was presented as 16, by the way, but the DM made her up it to 18 because people felt awkward about bringing a teenager into combat.

>>96219845
This. This is so correct. I'm an autismo woman and I hate the shit that normie bitches bring into the hobby. They don't get it, they don't get the guys in it, and they never will.

>>96219054
i'm ready daddy

They like the playacting

>>96219067
Are you sure that it's not them that are really playing the game the way it was intended to be played since at least the last 20 years?

>>96221847
Not that Anon, but at that point just play FATE or a game that was actually designed for play-acting instead of being 300 pages of combat rules.

>>96221832
are you short, fat, old, and ugly?

>>96221948
At some point a person must realize they are in a minority and not blame those who are playing the game the popularly conceived way.

>>96222030
Really says something about how shit a game is when most of the player-base would rather completely ignore the rules than play the game as designed.

>>96222072
Maybe, but it's a systematic problem, not one you should really be blaming individual players in the group about. They're just doing what they have perceived and observed what the game is "actually about" for the last 20 years.

>>96222090
It is 100% the players' fault for continuing to try a ram a square peg into a round hole instead of just moving on to a game that actually does what they want. Don't make excuses for retarded people.

>>96221847
No matter how long an interloper who changed things manages to cling on to power, they cannot change their nature. A thing remains what it was created to be, not what faggots who captured it turn it into. Your shitty retcons and fanbase invasions don't get fucking tenure.

>>96221467
>18 year old elf
Actual kid. They become “teenagers” at, like, 60.

>>96223048
You think play-actors actually give the slightest shit about "lore". If they can't even read the rules, there's no way they're reading the other stuff.

Funny thing, it's not just autism, or at least female autism often has a more direct physical cause. A lot of girls with PCOS and other reproductive issues tend to develop male interests. One of the biggest sci-fi nerds in my school when I was a kid was this cute blonde girl and she mentioned once that she had cancer or something when she was little and had to get a hysterectomy. It's scary to think how much humans are just another kind of animal enslaved by biology.

>>96225250
Reminds me of some discussion a while back about tokenism. Somebody mentioned that black doctor with severe autism from Chicago Med. The problem with a lot of "woke" media these days is less that there are so many people who aren't part of "white, masculine civilization" participating in its institutions, but that there's no sensible rationale given for it. Logic dictates these people would all be fundamentally broken in some way. When a person puts their energy toward pursuits that are not typical of their race or sex, it follows that there's some reason that energy cannot get to where it would normally go.

It's gay work that no one has posted the name of the bigtitted plainface wench in the OP or the sexy twisted midget downthread

>Why do women love DND so much?
I remember a time when if the girls ever found out you were a "D&D nerd", that made you a social pariah unable to ever get a date. Christ Almighty, I was born in the wrong time.

>>96226627
Same was for Warhammer too. Or if you liked Marvel or DC. Oh yeah and the worst thing was if you liked anime.

>>96221467
>the DM made her up it to 18 because people felt awkward about bringing a teenager into combat
your group is a bunch of pussies. Mos YA fiction is about teenagers going into combat

>>96225641
Less "cannot" more "didn't". I don't play tabletop because I'm some frustrated athlete making do. I happen to prefer tabletop to real adventuring (or the nearer equivalents) down to ordinary random variation. I'm not "fundamentally broken" because of it either. Life requires variation for adaptation. In nature, that'd be all about trying different beaks for different nuts and stuff. In humanity, our species-wide prosperity means serving a lot of disparate needs and so a lot of disparate people are required.

>>96219845
>BPD women are life-ruiners and best avoided but if you're an inexperienced sensitive guy you think you've won the lottery when you meet one
I worry I'm vulnerable to this myself. So far the girls I tend to have crushes on are this type of overly sweet quirk chungus types. How do I know if they're the ones that wont cut my balls off?

>>96227011
You don't worry if they might, you calmly ensure they don't. Relationships are about compromise but that includes firm and reasonable boundaries.
>but what if they cheat or leave or wah wah
They're allowed to. And you are in turn allowed to leave them when the relationship no longer brings you (or her) joy and wellness.

You can't guarantee perfect behaviour, you can only communicate and model it. If you're worried about them controlling you, decline to be controlled. If you're worried about fidelity, assess coldly what you think the risks are and choose to trust or not accordingly. Jesus, I'm the first to say that relationships aren't easy but they really are simple.

>>96219036 (OP)
Though its bullshit, they get to bully socially awkward nerds and warp them with no repercussions.

>>96227087
So it's like every other area of life?

>>96226879
If it makes you feel better, I only played two sessions with those people before leaving. For numerous reasons beyond just the constant drama-whoring.

>>96225250

That's really interesting from an evopsych POV. Like infertile women becoming the tribe's shaman or a tomboy huntress or something. Whereas most moms are insanely boring people who can't talk about anything but kids(though I suppose the alternative is worse, you always hear about moms leaving their kids alone so they can go party or gamble etc with tragic results).

>>96227011

I think the easiest way to clock BPD women is the way they overshare and view people in stark black and white terms(you're either her savior or a horrible monster). So you meet this vivacious girl who seems smitten with you and the first time you hang out she's telling you all these horrible stories of how her exes all abused her and her friends all abandoned her for no reason. (She'll be telling the next dude about how you abused her).

They have really bad impulse control and one-track minds that fixate on things(but unlike a nerd/autist they will discard these things quickly). So maybe she'll run out and get a new tattoo even though she just got fired and money for rent etc will be tight. Or she'll be obsessed with getting a ferret and then lose interest in it after a couple months. Many will have a distant city they want to move to, eg if you guys are in Michigan and she won't stop talking about going to San Francisco.

>>96227542
I never understood the whole city obsession. My sister wanted to go to California for years so she could visit the beach every day. Last time I visited her for two weeks in July, she didn't go to the beach a single time despite it being the middle of summer.

>>96227944

It's weird how people seem to expect a party van to roll up to their house or something and clearly they'd have the social life they want if they lived in a bigger city.

I think boring people won't admit to being boring and wanting to stay home and watch TV, even to themselves. So they'll complain about being bored and then reject any kind of proposed activity.

>>96226627
Don't worry, they are not really into it. Ugly femcels usually gravitate to geek hobbies. They just crave the attention and social validation. I'll never let a woman sit at my table, it's a sacred gamer's haven, not real life tiktok.

>>96226627
If you were a 2010 zoomer you'd still be called a nerd, just not to your face, and would never be able to get a date because of it. They just learned that they don't need to bully you out of a social life, they can extract value out of you first, and then bully you out of a social life.

>>96228007
Seconding this. There was a girl in my college D&D group a few years back who would constantly whine about how she wanted to go DO things and all the guys she dated were boring or had hobbies she wasn't into. One day I asked her what her hobbies were besides D&D and she couldn't come up with an answer. Turns out all the guys who like to go hiking or sightseeing or whatever are prooobably dating girls who already do those things.

Correct, it's not only better for the species but for the individual child that women are like this. It's just frustrating for guys who have mistakenly bought into the idea that their romantic partner is supposed to be some kind of cigar-smoking bro who shares all their hobbies and interests. No! Marry a boring hoe who likes knitting and reality TV. The only "guy interest" she should be enthusiastic about or it's a dealbreaker is fucking; if she doesn't want to choke on your dick it's a waste of time no matter how good a mom she'll be.

>>96226879
Someone in their 30s should not be reading YA fiction, let alone roleplaying it.

YA fiction is just women's version of grown men still watching anime made for teen boys.

>>96228046
That might just be you bro. I was in highschool in 2010 and I'd regularly chat about our respective campaigns with the one of the girls in my history class. It never did any harm to my social life and I definitely can't think of anything she got out of it except attention (and it's not like her appearance didn't guarantee I'd be giving her that regardless).

For the beginner I’d say a girlfriend is supposed to be some one you like spending time with. That’s the basis of any healthy relationship, that’s the foundation on which you will build something more together. If instead of joy it’s grief you get from spending time together it’s time to go your own way. Otherwise you’re building a relationship on a toxic foundation and what you build will only get worse. You don’t owe random girls you date or call girl friend much. They aren’t wives, mothers, or business partners. You don’t owe them shit. Bail on them when it gets bad.

>>96245696
>You don’t owe them shit. Bail on them when it gets bad.
This is easy to say but emotional entanglement often makes it hard to execute in practice, especially for Anon's type of defenseless, most likely romantic nerd.

The sad truth is that becoming emotionally calloused and cynical increases your chance of a successful relationship at the same time as making it worth a great deal less to you. This is the horrible paradox women's lib has created.

I mean, I guess that could be a problem, but how are you finding any you're attracted to? I've met all of two people in the last 40 years that A. were not physically disgusting and B. did not have a repellent personality.
And I didn't even have any kind of great bond with these two, but like, fuck. Attractive people are extremely few and far between.
