I'm not really surprised. If nothing else, it goes to show you that gamers really do come from all walks of life.
This story has been around at least two months and debated about on at least two other gaming forums. I thought maybe the content or profanity filters had stopped the story from having a thread on here.

Its very likely completely real.


The Game Store that I work at is in a Mall. The same Mall has a HOT TOPIC and a store called Tortuga that we nickname "The Pirate Store". The "Pirate Store" is basically two booths from the Ohio Renaiisance Festival going in together on a retail spot in the mall.

All three stores have quite a considerable overlap in regular customers we share that frequent all three places.

Many of the young women gamers that frequent our store could sit in with that group in the video and fit right in - fashion-wise, conversationally....and in other ways too....

I read the guy's blog a bit before the video went up. It's interesting stuff.

Why do so many people automatically assume that porn actors are only interested in porn? That's just their day job.

A day job that shall-we-say some of them didn't exactly always dream of. This is an immersively escapist hobby (that easily enables elements of empowerment fantasy for those who crave them) first and foremost, and all aspects of the sex trade are full of people who fit our prime demographic.

I think some people assume that if you play rpgs that you don't get laid.

I have been in a lot of games where the sex got very graphic. Sadly I am sort of used to it, although I try to be good about it in other groups. Graphic RP, I don't see a problem with. It's when the players begin to live vicariously through their characters that it gets weird.

In my GGFH (Gaming Group From Hell) I used to get into a lot of graphic stuff with the GM at the time. He was my very first GM and I didn't know better. I thought that's how these things are done. Later on I found out he had been telling his friends that we were having sex regularly. That was a shock to me because I had no idea. Later when I left the group, he told his friends we broke up.

To say that was upsetting would be an understatement.

But, on the other end, I've actually met some people in the porn industry and they were all very down to earth folks, so it doesn't surprise me in the least. I remember that I met a couple because I overheard them talking about their D&D characters. It was a fun conversation to have and pretty funny too. We all were totally getting our geek on. It was so cool.

Yeah, that's always a problem. There isn't a problem with sex in your RPG, it's when your only outlet for sex is your RPG.
