The Bitch Herself


I'm in college, the time when you should be establishing yourself as an adult, finding your character as an individual and setting the right course to success. Sounds like a good time to play video games to me!

Let's get this out in the open right now - there's a stereo-type that exists that girls can only play healers, and some say, actually make better healers. The thought being both that its easier to watch health bars then dps and that girls have a more nurturing nature. For a long time I resisted playing a healing class, maybe because I sub consciously didn't want to vilify the above. However enough time spent looking for a cleric/priest/druid /inserthealshere and enough groups broken for the lack of one convinced me otherwise. Easy solution to the looking for healer problem - be one yourself. This axiom has driven me game to game.

I'm female, I play healers, and I'm still in school. Next?
