Hi guys,

Someone knows the origin of this quote from Gary Gygax?

"Gaming in general is a male thing. It isn't that gaming is designed to exclude women. Everybody who's tried to design a game to interest a large female audience has failed. And I think that has to do with the different thinking processes of men and women."

Thanks!

Looks like it's from a 1998 interview, reprinted here:

Looks like it's this Richard Branson issue:

Check out the listing photo that shows the table of contents. Gygax is mentioned.
