Women and games

WomenGamers.com is the best site I know about women and games (Game Girl Advance is good too, but focuses less on the female aspects of gaming). Their content includes interviews (with Jane Jensen for instance), reviews, and various reports on the industry. I can't think of any site containing more industry commentary from the female perspective, and I (as a man) found I could read it without feeling guilty, embarassed or annoyed.

Personally, I am interested in developing games for people instead of for men or for women, but I think it's both positive and important that there is commentary from a broad variety of points of view. It will improve the quality of the games and the health of the industry.

(Update: No pun intended in "broad variety of points of view" ;) Merci Stéphane.)
