Cute things and games

Alright I'm one of the girls that's completely guilty of doing or getting things in games because they're cute/look good. I'll sacrifice a tiny bit of stats just so I don't have to wear a hideous shirt. I am color coordinated in my raiding gear. In the end if no one wants the item, I'll ask if I can have it because 'it looks pretty'. I will squeel at a small pet and want one even though it serves no function such as a bunny to follow me around.

Yes, I am one of the girls guilty of playing at times just because 'it's cute'. Is this such a bad thing though? Some guys who are the more 'hardcore' players may criticize girls for their indulgences. The creators of most games fail to tailor them to female tastes. Guys get their eye candy with girls and skimpy armory. What do girls really get? Usually nothing which to speak of. So guys, especially guys that play girls, let me have my little bits of joy because until all gear looks nice or my little pet is actually functional, that is how its going to be. Me, I'm staying color coordinated on my raids.
