I think thats kinda sad, and a reflection of the commonly held belief that video games are a waste of time.
My sister, who I love dearly, does look down on me and my husband because we are gamers. People seem to think (at least in the US) if you still enjoy video games you have not really transitioned into adulthood (no matter if you hold down a good job and pay the mortgage).
Some of my gamer friends who are single men don't tell prospective girlfriends that they play because many of them would not date them. Don't people realize that a gamer is the perfect mate? You always know where they are, you have an instant hobby you can enjoy together, and most importantly men who are gamers are usually (there are exceptions of course) really respectful and kind hearted. I wish people would just get over it..........
