There is no such data, get over yourselves. Male monkeys spending more time with wheeled toys is hardly empirical evidence for *why* women "tend" to play certain genres.
You can make jokes and deny psychological science all you want.

I am not denying that it isn't popular among certain political ideologies to deny anything about innate human behaviors or tendencies, especially when gender is involved, since gender is become increasingly at the forefront of some people's ideological focus. But the science is science, whether you want to join the ranks of climate change deniers and anti-evolutionists, that's on you--and of course, one may as well almost need to deny evolution, because sexual dimorphism is in many, many species on Earth, and to think the cosmos as a matter of principle would deign to intervene for humanity and insure complete behavioral and psychological parity while having enough genetic and hormonal differences to produce different bodies but not slightly different brains.
Brain lateralization studies also show that men and women do not appear to even process information in quite the same way. The implications of this are exaggerated (as is the notion of right brained/left brained people) but it is still real enough.
I'm not attacking anyone and I haven't said anything bad directed at anyone specific, neither am I trolling. If I was directly insulting anyone Raze would've told me and edited my post. I gain nothing by insulting people.
Of course you didn't directly insult. You did something intellectually dishonest that gives you plenty of plausible deniability. There are plenty of ways one can insinuate, mislead, or pretend in discourse to make others look bad while appearing on the up-and-up. One of those ways is deliberately mischaracterizing someone said (or meant) something to make them look bad.
I'm still waiting for you to show us where anyone here even insinuated that one gender or another should not like or play particular genres of video games. I'll just plainly state what you did--you do not believe that there are differences in behavior between the genders or sexes; so when your opponents on this issue offered an explanation incompatible with your beliefs, you responded in a way that pretended we were shaming or implying that women shouldn't play certain types of games, or that there was something wrong with women that did so. It's a polemical technique meant to bias people against your opponents. You made that assertion about us; all I'm asking is that you back it up, since that's a charge made against people that doesn't paint them in a favorable light.
