Well, let's look at a specific example of what Peterson and Tondro
describe as “misogyny “ from 1975's Greyhawk. Greyhawk was the first
supplement ever produced for D&D. Written by Gary Gygax and Rob Kuntz,
the same Rob Kuntz who claimed slander above, it was a crucial text in
the history of the game. For example, it debuted the thief character
class. It also gave the game new dragons, among them the King of Lawful
Dragons and the Queen of Chaotic Dragons. The male dragon is good, and
female dragon is evil. (See Appendix 1 below for more.)
I quit reading at this point because the author clearly hasn't a clue about
Babylonian mythology and therefore isn't credible.
