having been here for a few days now, i am curious to know why there are so few girls here in the npo. i would love to hear opinions on the matter, or the reasons behind it...unless the boys here don't know, and it's yet another reason that "girls are so hard to understand." anyway, i like what i see here, so if you all don't mind, i'd enjoy staying on for a while.
hail francos! hail the npo!

I think it was because they insisted on potpourri in the bathrooms and pastels for the walls.
In all seriousness I really don't know. It is male dominated for sure here but there's no reason why capable women wouldn't rise to the top.

well, i'm not a fan of pastels, and i am of the opinion that as long as the bathroom is clean, one doesn't need potpourri. besides, plug-in wall fresheners are so much less of a hassle.
perhaps females who wind up here are intimidated by the enthusiasm and fervor and militarism that is so predominant here, so they opt out. it's a rare one who likes to be tossed in amongst the boys to fight for a firm place to plant her feet, and esteem from those around her.

There are few girls/women in most places...it's not something solely representative of the NPO. I know part of the probem is that testosterone driven guys like me pay more attention to someone when they find out they're a girl

Not many girls play the game. I would like to see more women take control of regions and orgs in here...as long as their not like Pope Hope.

Kind of funny lol, the first three members of the Sardaukar Confederacy (the first region I founded) were women But there's an easy answer for your question aila... LR wants everyone to herself, so she eats most of the women. There, I said it.

I think most of the time females arnt into gamming. So there is like 50 men to every 1 woman. But gamming chicks rock!

Ok I almost sounded normal in that last post. So just to let you all know I have not been snatched by A bunch of goat milkers and had my brain switched with the brain of a manatee! I thought I would let you all know something a little crazy about my self.
I used to be a platypus.
But I got better!

There's another level to this question too though... why would any sane woman join NS? with our insane ratio of men to women, chances are, most of the men you'd end up talking to are either morbidly obese or typing in a bath tub
