Puzzle games and girls....

I have yet to touch my new and shiny x360, my girlfriend is on live all the time....

Women are attracted to different games than men. Especially the puzzle games like Bejeweled, Zuma, Tetris, Quircks/Puyo puyo, Puzzle Bobble. What is it that makes these games more attractive to girls and other genres far less attractive?
Does it have something to do with the different natures of the female and male mind? Do women like to tidy up and collect more then men do? Most puzzlers need the player to have an intrinsic drive to tidy up/make less of a mess. Are puzzlers more neurotic? Do puzzlers have more of a problem with chaos than non-puzzlers?
Probably has something to do with the fact that women are from Venus and men indeed from Mars….. quite in interesting subject matter from a psychiatrists point of view by the way…. ;) won’t bore you lot with the details…. ☺

Off for a nice round of MsPacman on my gp2x......
