Your Princess Is In Another Castle (HelloGiggles)

“GIRL GAMER” – where did the term come from?  In this article, I take a historical look back at where the possible gender shift began.  I know a lot of dudes are on my fan page, and I’d love to hear your viewpoints on this.

Guys: did you play Atari/NES/Sega with girls growing up?

And Girls: were you just as oblivious to the male-advertising as I was?

Some of you may not be old enough to remember 80s gaming (or may not have been alive *gasp*) – either way, let me know what you think.

**Every Friday, my gaming culture column “Level Up” appears on Zooey Deschanel’s lady-friendly website HelloGiggles.com**  So check it out, comment and share!
