Gaming Widows
According to this nifty article there are groups of individuals who have dubbed themselves "game widows" who due to games such as WoW, Everquest, Final Fantasy 11, etc have "lost" their mates.

Now, I'm not a specialist in the assessment of sexual orientation and I don't have any knowledge of the soft-science involved in assessing addiction.

I don't think that would matter.
Some of the Vendor Trash at Gen Con was gross. There was one girl who was a faery / nymph / demon or something...and if she was supposed to be a faery she was an ugly tree faery.
the people who do no about things like addiction - say that one cannot be addicted to video games - at least in any medical scene.
for what its worth
But what do soft science people say?
in this case, what do you mean by soft science?
Were you talking about clinical addiction or "social" addiction?
Hot funk, cool punk, even if its old junk
Its still rock and roll to me
but... I was talking about VENDOR TRASH, Jay.
not just vendor trash.
