hello,
I actually am no active scener, I never went to a party, I never released something. I seldomly post something in here. But i Do enjoy all releases, look at videos & photos made at big parties & stuff.

The problem is I really miss the female part in the scene, I almost never see them in photos/videos. I have never heard of a female demogroup. Are they really absent or do I look in the false places ?

How's the ratio girls/guys on parties ? Like my faculty 2/100 ? or somewhat better ?

(you know anything under 3% is measurement error :)

1/100 is more sensible i guess.

also, squirrelz, powerpuff girls, to name a few (both dead, i guess). there is exactly one competent female coder (that i know of), and that's sole/xplsv. there's a couple of good female graphicians (mostly goth girlfriends of nerdy sceners, though). and a couple of female hangaround sceners.

also, does it matter? i guess more variety would make the scene more interesting and cozy, but hey, what do you expect with a hobby that's all about computers. go to a bar for girls.

Don't forget Clary/Drifters as a coder and both Ayame/Network and Mermaid/Scoopex as graphicians.

me a competent coder? :-$

I would like to improve enough to be called that :D

* Posted by psenough Monday 11 April 2005 - 20:17 
more then 3 demos with more then 3 effects each == competent coder ;)

so now you know :)

You never see them in photos ??
Well, i'm not a scener too, because i never release a prod (yet)
But I usually see girls in demoparty photos, (i.e. Leia) i'm sure she's not alone, but like skrebbel said, they don't seem to be a lot - from extern -

if 3D-buzz is a party, or something relating the BP, it's not me, i'm not really a scener (i would like to be one)
if 3D-buzz is a forum or something else...maybe...

wasn't there a site that optimus made with only female sceners?

* Posted by Bugo the Cat Tuesday 5 April 2005 - 11:26 
I smile everytime such a subject pops up :)

If you are so horny about them you can still read those articles and check an old portion of my site in fortunecity servers (with lot'sa spam). Then again, the site doesn't exist anymore, I think I have abandoned the project a long time ago. I even lost my contacts I had with few of them cause I was probably too annoying :(

I've been a scener since the late 80's and much has happened in the last years. I went to Dreamhack Winter 2004 and The Gathering 2005 (we released prods at both places). Before that the last party I went to was The Gathering 1997 :-D.

There are many more girls at the parties now. Why? I think it's because gaming and chatting has made computer nerdery more accepted in general.

I looked around to see what the girls were doing and they fell into three categories:

1. Heavy gaming
2. Heavy chatting
3. Hangaround to their scene or gamer boyfriend

I think this development is nice although more girls as active sceners would be better.

@chip273:

There are very few girls in the demoscene - but a LOT of queens. =)

There are several more girls active in the scene, but wisely enough, they're not always very interested in being very high profile sceners.

I can briefly mention: Delilah, Radiant, Darcy, Gabi and a whole lot of swedish girls (svenskjäklar).

I guess girls in the scene get a lot of unwanted attention. Which I can perfectly understand.
