I do a lot of studying and playing video games. =\

But if you want to do something more typical... make me a sandwich?

Making Sandwiches is a brilliant hobby!!! I'm a a student of the 'Scooby Doo' method myself.

Not making you one though, all for me!

Gee sounds like Robin Hood . What's laserquest?

[Dryad]

Laserquest is the same as lasergame. (Just recently discovered that. *proud face*)
It's like paintball, only without bruises, or actual aiming. Lazorgunz!

[Metamorph]

I used to go to LazorQuest all the time when I was around 10! I much prefer paintball even if it does hurt when you get shot. I like anything that gets adrenaline pumping.
Currently though due to lack of money Ive been playing guitar, video games and cycling. As soon as I have some money again I plan on going to the snow slope (Xscape for those familiar with it) to learn to snowboard and go on a huge shopping spree!

Quit a while ago I found a book, Girls Will Be Girls,
http://www.amazon.com/Girls-Will-Confident-Courageous-Daughters/dp/078686768X
I don't know if I agree with all of it but I found it interesting. This thread reminded me of it and I thought I would post a paragraph from it.
========================================================
Provided in an enjoyable was these early against-the-grain gender experiences help create a well balanced brain that is better equipped to handle the range of tasks and challenges the brain will have to contend with all through life. This concept can be expanded to many areas. Young girls need to be spending time in all of the areas that they are not as hardwired to choose early on of their own accord:

Gross motor tasks: skipping, riding a bike, climbing
Spatial tasks: puzzles, tangrams, carpentry, orienteering
Strategy and problem solving: team games and sports, checkers
Risk taking: doing anything that takes a bit of courage on a particular girl's part.
This can range tremendously by individual.

If you have a 20 percent girl, then she needs to spend more time on:
Fine motor tasks: painting, drawing, tying, zipping
Auditory tasks: books on tape, rhyming, reading poems and stories aloud
Sequential and detailed thinking: hidden word puzzles, jigsaw puzzles, putting things in order, alphabetizing
Connecting with others: cooperative play, volunteer work

My current hobbies are:

Reading fantasy/sci-fi novels;
Playing guitar;
Watching TV; and
Playing disc golf (but only because my spouse likes it).

I played WoW for a year and then I quit.  Every once in a while I buy a video game, but I don't finish it.  They don't hold my interest anymmore.

I used to table top RPG, but it's been a while.

I want to write novels and record songs, but I can't summon the motivation.

It's pretty boring all around, but I'm going to have to find something to do when I run out of novels to read, and I'm getting there.  I stopped reading for about ten years, and now I've been reading all the books I missed, but I'm almost caught up now.

But the guys in that pic are still wayyy creepier

Horseback riding. I don't think it's been mentioned but when you start competing it's so much fun (just don't go overboard) and it's not just for girls, I compete in Team Penning, sorting and working cow horse and I just love it, there nothing like it.

[fluffynuf]

Kite Surfing and Parakarting also still like a bit of cross country cycling and now and then Radio Ham

[Saskia]

we can do anything we like.
I love my cat, cooking, shopping for clothes and shoes, but I also love riding my motorbikes and have 4 of them in my garage. Don't like video games but each to their own.

[Raven]

In my opinion girls just as well as guys can have any hobbies they would like regardless of gender. I know pleanty of girls who likes to play video games and some other choice things. It depends on the individual basically in my opinion.

[Mr.Rainey]

Whatever it is girls do, I am not really sure XD

I guess hang at the mall and shop. Thats all I can think of but do whatever you wanna do don't let your gender ID hold you back.

[Cruelladeville]

For me its outdoorsie stuff, so horses, boats and boots for walking hiking....

Cycling too..... i also luv playing tennis....

In the winter gym figures highly... as does movie collecting, concerts and music...too...

No different to many folks in fact....

[Jillieann Rose]

Anything they want to do. 
I love the same hobbies I have always loved.
But now I have to add shopping.
Maybe it's not a hobby but an addiction. 
Also I love to go birdwatching and nature walks especially with others.

Well, if you are into guys, doing hobbies and activites that mainly attract guys is a good way and place to meet them! Guys love girls that like to hike, ride a motorcycle, play video games. Do what you like!
