@BruceWayne,

in the videogame industry as a whole, yes females are under-represented though it is getting much better.

In the Choices games specifically most stories require you to play as a female.

I don't want to get too into it, but it is a sad symptom of gender stereotyping...these romance games are still heavily geared to women when I think boys and men should have the opportunity to indulge in them as well. Nothing wrong with men wanting to do something feminine. Likewise, in the videogame industry action etc games that are more masculine are too often targeted exclusively to straight men.

I just think, it's 2018 and there's really no reason why new games and developers can't target men AND women. Why risk alienating an entire demographic? Just my opinion.
