:snerk: games devised by girls as misunderstood by boys

Just read in Empire, one of the 'movie truism whatsits' by one of their staff : 'The rules of Quidditch make total sense to the boys of Hogwarts, even though they were devised by a girl.'

And now I'm reminded of the Eddie Izzard sketch about trying to figure out the rules of things like hopscotch when a child, (girls' games being arcane with no discernible rules to the outsider, ie boys) and, of course, my own school playground experiences. Hmm. Anyone for Bumper Car, skipping with two ropes and added actions?
