As tabletop gamers, we should strive to be as inclusive and welcoming as possible to everyone wanting to join in on the hobby. Making our tables more friendly to women, LGBTQ folx, people of color, persons on the autism spectrum, and persons with sensory or physical disabilities can make a huge positive difference in the way we interact with others at our tables. Tabletop gamers have a stereotype of gate-keeping and unfriendliness towards these folks - let's break that stereotype as often as we can, and encourage others to do the same.
