stockportguy86 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 As it's International Women's Day, I've always wondered do females play Football Manager and do they enjoy it like their other half do?. I think if women love FIFA game they might love FM too seeing as they love football so much like we, males do too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wkdsoul Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 One of the best tactic mods on FMbase was a woman TheBetterHalf, if i remember right. Great football mind and clear posting of the game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
First Name Last Name Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 There's at least a few girls/ladies/women on these forums and that would indicate to me a good number playing the game without posting here. You never usually know of course, because our profiles don't have a gender field but one way to find out was that every year there used to be a new "Can we have women's leagues in the game" thread and that would bring out the sexist comments which would generally lead to one or two posters "coming out" as female. I miss those threads - not for the sexist comments of course. They were never going to get SI to add women's leagues (SI have criteria for when they will deem it worth the effort), but the threads showed that there was at least some interest so hopefully the devs were keeping it in mind. It's been a good few years since the last thread and in that time there have been changes made to the game that, just IMO, were a waste of time. I'm not saying female players should have been in the game by now but perhaps the editor should have been capable of adding women's leagues, less work for SI and the ability for the community to sort it. Anyway, sorry to sidetrack. Simply, yes, women play the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenco Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 As it's International Women's Day, I've always wondered do females play Football Manager and do they enjoy it like theirother half do?. I think if women love FIFA game they might love FM too seeing as they love football so much like we, males do too. I'm sure there are women who play the game who have male partners who don't even like football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
