Uh oh...

>1. How many of you of the list are women?

Not me... (BUT WAIT, it gets better!)

>2. How many women does everyone out there have in their posse?

Three outa three for quite some time!   I've read almost all the responses 
and not one has responded with an all female posse.  Yes!

>3. What character types do women players prefer?

Currently, we have the aforementioned Saloon Gal (..who is more than she 
appears...), a Pink, and a Huckster (who's a kid, too...)

>4. Any women Marshals?

Yes!  My wife marshalled our game for a few sessions (and for the first 
time ever!).  Unfortunately, she ran the Harrowed Moon trilogy -- perhaps 
one of the most difficult adventures for a new GM to run.  We had a blast 
until we had a new player (a man...) try to bully his way through the 
game.  Munchkin power gamer boob!  Grrrr...

>5. What are the playing styles of the women out there?

About as varied as you'd image.  One is a gun-totting, kill em' dead kinda 
gal, while the SG is very much into character interaction.  My wife, who 
plays the child huckster, is just psychotic.  Sigh...  :)
