... the avatars of the first two responses to this thread are both funny and make me unsure if they're a joke or not. =D Because all I can imagine is the wide eyed Klingon saying, gruffly, "I'm a lady".

Anyhow, there are definitely some women playing the game, but I'm not sure that there are a bunch. My wife does play from time to time, and there are a few more well known ladies here on the boards. In fact, there was actually a thread where quite a few chimed in a couple months back because a similar question was asked; you can probably track it down if you're so inclined.

I do agree that these kinds of space sandboxes can lean quite heavily towards being mostly men-folk, and on the surface ED doesn't appear to be much of an exception in that regard. But you are definitely not alone, if that's if your worry!
 
If there are, they are smart to hide the fact from the stupid little boys who populate most of the gaming world.

Aye, though I find games like this to be a bit safer than FPSs or MOBAs in that regard. Seems like most of the people I see in ED and similarly complex simulation style games tend to be a bit older, and hopefully would have aged out of such non-sense. Of course, some people never grow up and just become creepy old men, but for the most part I'd venture that a game like this would be one of the less stressful to play for most folks by way of how the community treats you. (Edit: Nevermind, I was wrong)

And if not? Then I'd certainly hope FDev's in game and forum moderation teams would come crashing down on the offending parties with a vengeance. Games like this thrive on a tight nit and welcoming community, and it would do more harm here than somewhere like WoW or CoD to build a reputation for having the community make such disgraceful displays.

Here now, I am certainly not little....

I don't have beautiful toenails like my Klingon lady-friend, but I do have very hairy hands.
And a beautiful bonnet.
 
I think on Match.com (Meetic group), you will certainly find the soul mate.

:D

Just a plain old human male of north european descent. Though, today, I do identify as a Krait Phantom. Tomorrow I may be a Cutter, unless I am feeling like a Corvette. My daughter plays. So that is at least one person that plays Elite Dangerous that I am sure is female. The rest of you are ships to me. We are all just ships in this game when it comes down to it.
