Negative myths about games debunked

This is an excellent article from (Henry Jenkins - MIT) - even if I only say that because it supports my own experience and instinct (plus bias!). Games do not (by-in-large) cause violent behaviour (except in play), I don't have to be a young male to play them, and they don't desensitise me.
So, I'm off home to not kick the dog and listen to my wife's woes as I play WoW as my ususual female wood-elf (like) character and I try to exterminate tons of wild animals (online of course).
