Gaming and Social Life

What the hell has gaming done to my social life?!? Well honestly in my opinion I think it has made it so much better! Some might say that we gamer's are always staying inside not getting any physical activity, meeting people, or eating healthy foods .

It is one thing that is true "we" don't get a lot of physical activity, but it is millions of us! "We" are all different groups of people; some work out, some don't, some eat healthy, some eat junky (most). I know that a stereotype for a gamer is that "we" always eat nothing but junk which is very true, but does that take our social life away? No. As a gamer I feel like "we" have a lot more leverage when it comes to being social!

"We" have conferences that are specially advocated by gamer's and designed for gamer's. I personally am consider to be a very sociable person. I attend some of the conferences to meet these people that I either play with online or that I either follow on Twitter or Facebook. The community for gaming has grown tremendously from the 80s! I do take it very offensive when somebody wants to talk about gamer's in a negative manner because I am one of those people! Understand that "we" do it better!
