"So long as you stick to traditionally feminine roles, anyway."

Native [American] cultures considered gadening a male sort of thing. That was to sustain an entire village/group, though, rather than something more recreational as this. Wouldn't mind seeing something like Comuter Mama or Electrical Repair Mama, but those activities are patently more dangerous IRL, both for the kid and whatever they set their hands (or worse) to. Whatever happens from here it's gotta be within the realm of "kids won't be easily killed by this, mostly because their parents will definitely be familiar enough with it."

I guess "women's suffrage mama", "civil rights mama" and "Global Economics mama" were canceled due to budgetary constraints...

Still at least these games are reasonably well made, I'd hate to think that women were being profiled by sub standard gameplay, that's just adding insult to injury right there

@BlackDS: funny, but true. I see no reason why there could not be a doctor mama given the success of doctor simulation games, or a lawyer/detective mama given the success of the PW series. But that would ask for her to step outside the house and it's immediate vicinity. >__>

Still, I have played Cooking Mama, and it is fun, albeit rather shallow. It would really help the franchise if it did go beyond it's rather "girly" roots.
