"Well it's just a matter of time, 50% of gamers are women in some places so there's only so long testosterone driven marketing will hold out. Eventually we'll either see booth babes fade away or booth beefcake join them. :-)"

"I figured it wasn't malicious, the spirit of it all seemed in good fun. Personally after the last E3 I was thinking "why aren't there Booth Beefcake?" I mean Booth eyecandy is just the nature of the convention industry (from Car conventions on down.) So they aren't going away but my logic was "I'm a heterosexual man but what about the heterosexua women gamers or the gay gamers?" I figure we need to diversify in this day and age.
Your questions weren't nasty or cruel and you seemed to be genuinely friendly with them. So I thought this was funny, didn't think it was excessivley cruel (thought as I said it seemed like hitting kittens with a baseball bat at times when things went down hill, just my god they were helpless!) All in all I think it was good fun. But jesus, Star Wars? Were they just throwing out crap at random or did they actually believe this?"

"Funny but I almost feel sorry for the booth babes, it's like watching some one take a baseball bat to a kitten. That being said an encyclopedic knowledge of video games does not a genius make nor is that what they are hired to do. Plenty of cute female gamers and stupid male gamers out there. But this did make for decent comedy."
