I see you don't particularly care, either.

If you did, you would have asked, and not needed the word "probably"
in your next sentence -- you would have *had* an explanation and
been able to evaluate its coherence.

So if you don't care, why are you talking about it?

Which would be a large part of the reasons we don't have a coherent
explanation of why girls like certain games.

Another large part would be that nobody bothers to ask.

Oh, we have plenty of ideas. If you were paying attention, you might
have seen them. What we *don't* have is a definitive *answer*, which
is why we're discussing the ideas.

Evidence supports a conclusion. Since you didn't state a conclusion,
it wasn't evidence.
