There are many other sources as well, all based on scientific research, talking about the differences in men and women's brains.
That doesn't mean women don't like 'that sort of thing,' but it means that men react more strongly to looking at females in a sexual sense.
Also, please lets not bring the 40k innuendos into this. It gets out of hand awfully quickly. My friends and I have experienced this.

This happened. I was recently playing this guy. His GF walks in. They talk while playing, I introduce myself to not seem awkward.
Next. They start to "Play" a little witheachother. Grabbing crotches, Honking boobs. It eventually goes to a full makeout to where the guy is sitting down and she is grinding on him.
Basically sex with clothes.
All I could say, Flabbergasted was "Um, I rolled a 6 to pen"
They got kicked out, But not before the store manager took pictures. He says it was for the wall of shame, But Im not sure. The only pics are of them dry humping.

That story is amazing. That would be a surprise for the gamers who were walking in at that moment.

getting kicked out still counts as a win for the opponent in this case.

I was playing a game with a friend and some guys waked in who I'd never seen before. They set up on the table behind us and started playing a game themselves. Me and my friend got half way through the game when I felt something brush past me (The part of me older guys in there mid 20's shouldn't touch...) quite slowly and deliberately and according to my friend I jumped at least 2 meters in the air. It turned out that the person behind me reached between my legs to get his case. We all laughed (Well I went red and laughed nervously) and carried on. As he was leaving he stopped at my table, cryptically and creepily complemented my 'Wave Serpent' (I didn't have one on the field) and left. I looked at him at the window and he winked at me.
That was very awkward (Confusing, Creepy, Possibly Paedophilic) considering him 14 and he was 20 odd. Now I see him in the club every so often and nothing like that has happened, but I still turn red when he keeps eye contact with me :S

The spoilered content ahead is the Black and White Space Marine Story. DO NOT OPEN IF YOU HATE IT.
WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
Spoiler:
There once was this Black and White Space Marine on a Black and White Bike, and being the hero-type person that he was, he wanted to marry the commander's daughter. So he went up to the palace, and the guard naturally inquired "Who goes there?"
To which the Black and White Space Marine replied: "I'm the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike and I want to marry the commander's daughter."
"Not the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike?"
"Yes, the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike."
"OK, pass."
So the Black and White Space Marine proceeded up to the commander's chamber.
"Who goes there?" asked the commander.
"I'm the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike and I want to marry your daughter" replied the Black and White Space Marine.
"Not the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike?"
"Yes, the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike."
"OK, if you complete three tasks, you may take my daughter's hand in marriage" the commander told the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike. "Your first task is to slay the dragon on Xylon III".
On the Black and White Space Marine's way out, the guard once again asked, "Who goes there"?"
To which the Black and White Space Marine replied "I'm the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike and I want to marry the commander's daughter."
"Not the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike?"
"Yes, the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike."
"OK, pass."
The Black and White Space Marine then proceeded with ease to kill the dragon and six months later returned with the head of the foul beast. On his way into the palace the guard inquired "Who goes there?"
To which the Black and White Space Marine replied "I'm the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike and I want to marry the commander's daughter".
"Not the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike?"
"Yes, the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike."
"OK, pass."
So the Black and White Space Marine proceeded up to the commander's chamber.
"Who goes there?" asked the commander.
"I'm the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike and I want to marry your daughter" replied the Black and White Space Marine.
"Not the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike?"
"Yes, the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike."
"OK, if you complete three tasks, you may take my daughter's hand in marriage" the commander told the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike. "Your second task is to climb the highest peak on Desgrus Beta".
On his way out the guard once again asked, "Who goes there?"
To which the Black and White Space Marine replied "I'm the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike and I want to marry the commander's daughter".
"Not the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike?"
"Yes, the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike."
"OK, pass."
The Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike easily climbed the mountain and returned 4 years later. On his way into the palace the guard inquired "Who goes there?"
To which the Black and White Space Marine replied "I'm the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike and I want to marry the commander's daughter."
"Not the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike?"
"Yes, the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike."
"OK, pass."
So the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike proceeded up to the commander's chamber.
"Who goes there?" asked the commander.
"I'm the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike and I want to marry your daughter" replied the Black and White Space Marine.
"Not the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike?"
"Yes, the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike."
"OK, if you complete three tasks you may take my daughter's hand in marriage" the commander told the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike. "Your third and final task is to swim across the acid lake outside the palace."
On the Black and White Space Marine's way out the guard once again asked, "Who goes there?"
To which the Black and White Space Marine replied "I'm the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike and I want to marry the commander's daughter."
"Not the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike?"
"Yes, the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike."
"OK, pass."
Once again the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike easily completed his task and returned to the palace for the final time.
On his way into the palace the guard inquired "Who goes there?"
To which the Black and White Space Marine replied "I'm the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike and I want to marry the commander's daughter".
"Not the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike?"
"Yes, the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike."
"OK, pass."
So the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike proceeded up to the commander's chamber.
"Who goes there?" asked the commander.
"I'm the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike and I want to marry your daughter" replied the Black and White Space Marine.
"Not the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike?"
"Yes, the Black and White Space Marine on the Black and White Bike. May I marry your daughter now?"
"OK."
You know, it had been over 15 years since I'd read that...
I hadn't missed it. -.-
To return to topic though... Hmmm.
Most awkward gaming experiences? Nothing all that horrifying really.
There was a game where our local idiot tried to make the same shot three turns in a row, without movement by any of the pieces involved, when he was out of range on the first attempt. The really awkward part about that was hearing a few months later that he was winning tournaments at the FLGS a bit down state.
There was... Games Day US 1995 I think (maybe '94, it's been a long time), where someone's significant other had gotten reasonably dressed up and was making regular circuits of the open gaming area, basking in the attention. It wasn't awkward for me so much as I felt vaguely embarrassed for the hobby as a whole that having a reasonably attractive woman walk between the tables was enough for most of these poor loveless bastards to stop literally everything that they were doing, drop dice, minis, drinks on the floor, and generally make fools of themselves. Fortunately we've got more women in the hobby these days so it happens less often, but still...

First time I went into a GW shop, I had no idea what it was.
I saw Games on it, so though it was some generic LGS.
I got 4 pairs of eyes looking at my funny when I asked where was the Shadowrun rulebook and if they had any left. They mumble something about miniature, I wasn't paying to much attention at that and left to get my Shadowrun book somewhere else.
Fortunately a month or so later, Dawn of War came on the computer, and I suddenly got wise as to what was GW all about.
First time I walked into a GW about 24 years ago I asked if they had any battletech minis... I don't remember the exact response but it was similar to, "Where's your mom and dad?"
My beautiful wife wrote:Trucks = Carnifex snack, Tanks = meals.
I'd love to see someone walk into a GW these days and ask 'Huh, so is this like a rip off of Warmachine?'
That would probably get very awkward very fast, but it would be the fun kind of awkward.
Fafnir wrote: Oh, I certainly vote with my dollar, but the problem is that that is not enough. The problem with the 'vote with your dollar' response is that it doesn't take into account why we're not buying the product. I want to enjoy 40k enough to buy back in. It was my introduction to traditional games, and there was a time when I enjoyed it very much. I want to buy 40k, but Gamesworkshop is doing their very best to push me away, and simply not buying their product won't tell them that.
That reminds me of when I was getting into the hobby. I walked into a Wizards of the Coast and asked them if they had any Battlefleet Gothic. Fortunately(?), they gave me directions to the nearest GW.
Redshirt at Warhammer World sold a bag of Mk.V Assault Marines to me for £20. He pulled the bag off the shelf in a terribly distracted manner, cast a quick glance over the resin and declared that he wasn't entirely sure on the price. He was happy to sell them at £20 (despite retail being £36 IIRC). Paid for the goods and turned around to walk out of the store with my girlfriend and 17 year old sister.
Sometimes it pays to take a female friend, sister or wife out to the local GW store.
Never was an issue for me since I don't play MTG but an LGS I used to go to held huge tourneys on Saturdays. One rather well endowed female would always wear as low cut a shirt she could put on without falling out of it and would have her IPOD with her. Just as the game would start she'd jam the IPOD into her cleavage leaving the poor schmuck across the table who has never seen boobs up close drooling and distracted.

I would love to see that! Hell I would pay to see that
Oh man, once in a GW store the staffer asked what I was building/painting at the moment, and I answered honestly (Warmachine). He got so nervous and uncomfortable I almost felt sorry for him. Almost
