Are video games only for men?

AngryMan writes "This BBC item asks "Are video games only for men?". The article is covering the launch of new game consoles by the three big manufacturers, but, bizarrely - though unsurprisingly - turns it into a 'gender issue'.
"...the Entertainment Software Association says makers have failed to come up with mass market products the helps (sic) encourage women to play "
WTF? If you want to play, play, if you don't, don't. If you have an idea for a new game you'd like to see, promote it. What is the problem? The article asks "What do you think? Are too many games aimed at young men?" The page provides a place to post your own comments."
