It made me think about what makes these things “manly,” what makes them worthy, what makes them important when there are things like starving children in Africa or wars fought overseas.

Here's one simple idea. PLAY WITH HER!

(And not just in the rated R sense, either ;-) I've come up with the 5 current games that I've played with my the women in my life and they represent what I think is a good way to include her in your favorite hobby.
