Is it normal that I love programming, math and video games?

The laws of supply and demand stand you in good stead.

Virtual high five for you! I used to be a big gamer-chic, but I stay so busy anymore that I hardly have time to play.

And I didn't get to take the programming classes in school because they always redirected me to some other class I didn't ask for as an extra credit.

Take solace in the fact that your school is better than mine, take advantage of your epic skillz! ^_^

Hello new computer science/game design employee.

Tech nerd . Dont feel bad you will be rich one day and Im sure there is a technerd boy that needs some love and a smart female .

I've never understood why programming is so associated with males. I also don't understand why men wouldn't want to hang out with girl gamers. There was a post on here only a few days ago where I said the most fun I've had was in a group with just me and four girls.

You sound like your a nerd/ sexy beast

Hell, I would love to know a girl that kicks ass at video games! lolz why wouldn't guys want to hang out with a girl like that?

Normal. Play Minecraft, and your life will be complete.

I most certainly am a girl gamer. Over the years though I haven't played as much as I use to but I still most certainly enjoy them. I mostly like nintendo but I also enjoy playing games like Little Big Planet, Worms and Uncharted 3 multi-player with my brothers on their PS3s.

I've also beaten my brothers at a lot of games in the past and they play a lot more than me anymore.

Yeah, it's normal.
I have about half the interests that you have, I'm a fucking nerd and if I ever get a hold of comic-con tickets, I might die.

As long as you don't masturbate over them you are fine.

Sometimes I think girls post things like this because what they really want is a load of guys who think girls who play video games are the pinnacle of hotness to comment on how cool and sexy the girl must be and how lots of guys would love to get in on that. Luckily I'm not one of those guys.

Anyway, you are in a minority because culturally and I'd suggest biologically women are less likely to gravitate towards academia involving pure logic. But if you're not being accepted socially by guys either, I expect that is less to do with your interests and more to do with your social interaction. There could be a variety of reasons.

The best perspective to hold on to is that you're not so weird and wayward to be unappealing to everyone - there will be plenty of people out there who'd like to be friends with you. Perhaps the problem is the social circles you move within don't have those people, even if they are focused on programming, math and video games. Perhaps you need to look outside your circle (maybe outside of school even) to find new people a little more receptive towards you :)

Of course it's normal. Why reinforce the stereotype that women can't like video games, programming and math?

I would follow you into The Rift m'lady, just say the words and I'm yours.

They can't handle your awesomeness, Period.

It is very normal. So guy's (like me) actually find attractive. ;)

I program games to I would love a girl with the same interest Ive allwayse loved games and programming and math I'm creating a new game but I love girls that like to do those kind of things relly I created a game for my gf lol but I don't get why people don't like you maybe cause you kick there ass in games XD men don't like that or atleast most don't
