In my (extremely limited) experience, 100% of the people I know playing Baldur's Gate are women.
I suspect it's more of an HN thing. The site is overwhelmingly male-presenting. There may be more women than it would appear, being carefully neutral about using any kind of female-coded language, and content to let the assumption be that they're male.
If you look into any of the threads on gender topics, very few women talk about their experiences. With good reason, I think: those threads are often very hostile to women.
- whiona 3y agoAh, I see. I had barely heard of this place before I was informed that my blog post was up here and that’s why I got a huge spike in traffic. Unfortunate to hear.
- jfengel 3y agoWelcome. It's a reasonably good site, all things considered, compared to the horrors of more general social media sites.
