Back in the day, I was the Wise Old Man (early 20s) who dungeonmastered for a bunch of high-school boys in the Nashville Science Fiction club. I was careful to put several traps into my dungeon which switched genders on their player characters, and used the results to do some consciousness-raising on issues ranging from menstruation to rape. I take no real credit for the fact that one of those kids is now a multiple Hugo-winner (8 nominations, 3 wins, I think) who handles women characters pretty well. -- Michael J.
