      <![CDATA[@2 - Geek Girl Con works hard to be inclusionary for all kinds of women - colors, shapes, sexualities, genders, dis/abilities,  parental status or whatever. What "ad bs" are you referring to? I bet they'd want to know about it if it's sending a weird message.

      <![CDATA[Independent of the fact that it matters, Geek Girl Con is also just pretty cool and you should go. It's the only con I bother checking out the vendor tables at, for one thing.<br />
<br />
@2, last year's schedule featured a bunch of gaming content, sure, but also a lot else. There was pop media content of all sorts, books and comics and TV shows and webseries, and if that's not your cup of tea - it's not mine, really - there were also a lot of social-issues panels that were related in some way to topics considered "geeky." There were a couple of panel discussions about online harassment and bullying, a seminar by an attorney teaching other women how to negotiate, and an appearance by Violet Reign and Phoenix Jones. The latter was actually a pretty interesting event even if you're not a fan of Jones, because it was as much about her domestic violence prevention campaign as it was about their "origin stories."<br />
<br />
The thing about Geek Girl Con is that it's actually Geek Feminist Con by a name that's less threatening to some people.

      <![CDATA[I have been a dork forever. This actually appeals to me, except for the ad bs. I sit in bars and read books, comic novels too. I dont expect to look like Rogue, but I sure as hell don't want that advertised to me. Do guys get advertised that they should look buff like batman or wolverine? I am 35, 5'4, and a 135 lbs. I don't look like the girls they portray. I don't pick up a console. I am not a gamer. What would be there for me? or are girl geeks just girl gamers?
