Wife loves acdc best.
Quoted from the_pin_family:Glad you said something mike, I tilted the wrong post. Correction made. My bad.
No problem my friend.
Quoted from pinbill_blocked:Appearantly no women on pinside. No suprise there.
You made that comment when the thread was only one hour old. I would think that is a little premature. Give it a day or two.
Quoted from hassanchop:the topic says "Ladies of Pinside (if there are any)...." so i was waiting for the Ladies to answer.
but no, i only see guys...
so isnt there any ladies here???
You need to read a little closer, maybe time for a new set of glasses. I saw two respond, blonde and butterfly. There are several more.
My wife will never come to Pinside. I asked her and she did respond with "Why?.". I told her and then she told me what I already knew, NGG. She has tried a few games on the others but only plays NGG.
Quoted from absocountry2:ou need to read a little closer, maybe time for a new set of glasses.
went out to buy them. then i did read the tittle again and it still reads like a call for ladies to respond.
anyway, the profile page does not show the male/female option so we have no way of telling.
My wife also likes AFM and RFM, because the martians moving are funny
I've seen the same crazy thing repeat itself over the years-
2-3 ladies join the site and post in forum
and then one guys starts posting boob pics
and another has to out do all the other guys and gets the topic closed
makes the ladies feel uncomfortable so they leave and never return.
This one guy I remember posted 50 pics of SG girls in one topic not too long ago
I'm sure we lost a lot of cool ladies because of him and his antics
Quoted from hassanchop:i did read the tittle again and it still reads like a call for ladies to respond.
I did not mean the title, I was talking about the posts. If you read them you can tell that Pinmike (Guy) was sending a message to Blonde. That is actually a female post. She says husband and Butterfly is a female as well. I should have pointed that out. Some things can be missed.
Quoted from bellbrand:I replied, I see from the posts thus far there are 3 of us who are on pinside..
Lisa
Dang, see I missed that. There are three. See what I mean about stuff getting missed!
I am female. My hands-down favorite game is WH2O.

I only discovered Pinside a couple of months ago, and while I have not read anything yet that is going to make me leave and never return, I do agree that the pictures people post here and the way women are often talked about does make me uncomfortable and less interested in visiting and participating in the forums. I don't think this is a particularly welcoming environment for women.
GFs past and fiancée all loved Scared Stiff and thought it was funny. My daughter liked it too. Sold it though. Fiancée and daughter both love Tron. And Diner.
Flamethrower, I hear you. Sometimes, I think if the ladies here posted a bit more often the "boys will be boys" post might diminish somewhat. Keep the faith. Don't leave. Team up with Phoebe!
Quoted from Butterflygirl24:Not true sir!!!
My fave is Bad Cats...followed by AFM, Barracora, and Star Light...I could go on...Phoebe
Wow, can you talk to my wife? Bad Cats is one of my all time favs, she HATES multiball (BONUS!!!!!) but I can't convince her on the game!
You one baaaaaad cat!
Quoted from absocountry2:You made that comment when the thread was only one hour old. I would think that is a little premature. Give it a day or two.
yes sir. point taken.
Wife and girlfriend don't like any of them....Especially my Playboy,They always rip on that one!! haha!!

Bad Cats doesn't have MB...that is the one thing I think would be cool if it did have...if Ralphie's dog house could some be the lock...you light it, and then somehow the programming could be adjusted or fixed so that after you lock 2 balls it starts MB and spits them out...but that would require some kind of subway type tunnel for the balls to go back to the shooter lane...
Posts about women are sometimes a bit skewed...but I don't mind pics of women and such... Just let them roll off you and go on...besides us girls can turn the tables and post pics of hot guys just like the guys do... turn about type thing...LOL!! No biggie just keep flippin'
Phoebe
Quoted from 6S3NC3:Wife and girlfriend? I wonder what they do when your playing
They don't get along so there's nothing happening there...
Quoted from The_Gorilla:I can't believe I didn't even notice that.
TG,Your eating too many banana's..Haha!!
Quoted from Atomicboy:She absolutely hates CV, TZ and JD and keeps telling me to get rid of them haha.
My wife hates TZ as well, even more after I installed the FF speakers. She would love to see that game go, just because the sub rocks the foundations of the house. Also, she can't get anything going and doesn't understand the rule or care to learn them. TZ is not for the casual player.
We need a new thread for which pins the ladies hate, of course those types of threads always stir up a lot of ill feelings and drama, so maybe not.
My ball bowler is the number one machine at party's. But Tales of the Arabian Nights is the run away choice for pinball among the ladies.

Hi Phoebe,
Is there any chance you could rate all the machines you own, when you have a chance? You have alot of uncommon titles (or at least older games with few ratings) and i would like to see what your opinion is on some (if not most) of them. Thanks in advance, even if you don't go ahead with it.
My renters came over today and played JP. They are around my age (late 20s-early 30s,) female, and loved it. Of course, that's the only option I have right now, but there was lots of "Oh my gawd, the dino ate the ball! That's freaking awesome." They are living in my former tiny house, and after seeing the new digs and pinball machine, this has been designated the zombie apocalypse survival house. My husband said he wouldn't mind 3 females around if need be.

Flamethrower:
On behalf of most of the men here on pinside, i would like to apologize to you and other women who are or would like to be on pinside for the behavior that makes you uncomfortable, especially for the misogynistic expressions of domestic violence in the guise of humor. I wouldn't want to have my wife or pregnant daughter subjected to such miscreants on forums or otherwise.
Boys will be boys, and that's all some will ever be unfortunately.
