I love discussing politics, medical issues (my profession), science/paranormal and sports. I think what drives me is my need to constantly engage in learning.

I value a stimulating conversation and critical thinkers, even with someone who has a differing opinion. I embrace a challenge, and am extremely competitive.

I have never met a gem who doesn't like to discuss issues and gain knowledge. I'm guessing it's partly due to mercury ruling our minds.

This probably why I get easily bored with people who can't carry an intellectual conversation and intrigue my mind. It's not that I believe
I'm some sort of rocket science. It's more about real substantive communication.

I'm really, really good at all games, for some reason. It pisses people off, and I've been banned from game nights before. LOL.

I'm really up on news and politics, but have to limit my exposure to both because I can get so worked up that it affects my nervous system and my moods.

I LOVE games. Video games are ok, but I love card games, board games, drinking games, sports...oh yea.

I don't enjoy mind games. I prefer being straight forward & honest. But if someone wants to play mind games with me, I teach them how to play...and I play to win.

I keep up with news, politics and the entertainment world. Love it all.

I get bored easily, so I'm always looking up info about something. The internet is the best invention ever! lol

Not into video games its just waste of time. Chess I used to but gets bored when I stay silent and focused for hours. Got masters in economics and business so you can imagine what am interested in. Loves an intellectual debate but hate arguments. Started own emerging market hedge fund this year and that's not for wimps.

an politics/international relations/security studies here too. 😄 I also love history, political economy and always looking up for the latest news, mainly in the Middle East, cause that region is the one where the crap is coming from nowadays. 😄
Games, not really, especially the war, battle, aggressive ones. I just find them childish and ridiculous; like soccer. 😄
Mind games? Anytime.
Debates? Oho, and I usually win.

Is intersting to know what a bunch of Scorpio or Cancer women would talk about. 😄 😄

Geminis are very curious and need a lot of mental stimulation. Games provide some of the stimulation and news/politics, besides being great to know anyway, really play into a gem's social nature. So yes, guilty on all counts. And I think there's nothing wrong with that!
