What you fail to know, is that dames isn't exactly exclusive to females. My fiance and I have played with men (yes males of the human race) that are members of dames. While their inclusion might be on some sort of special basis (family members and such) this renders your question invalid. But I'll answer the best I can. And the answer is yes I believe that while being a group of primary female gamers their group conducts their selves in a tasteful manner and my exclusion from the group is done in a respectful manner. They don't condem me for being a male they just choose to play with members of their own gender. I find nothing wrong with that. After all it would make me a hypocrite considering I'm a member of DOD. pretty much the polar opposite of dames. Do you find anything wrong with an all male group of father's?
