It's more fun with a wide variety of players to choose from!

Another:

While most would relish thought of doing it with two females at once, it just ain't very likely to happen in real life.

or an extension:

How many female SE IV players does it take to screw in a light bulb? Both of them

10 (tasteful) Reasons why Space Empires IV is like sex:

1&gt; You lay in bed at night thinking about it.
2&gt; It's good for quick sessions, but much better if you're at it for hours.
3&gt; There are loads of websites where you can talk about it and download pictures.
4&gt; Everyone who does it thinks they're really good at it.
5&gt; People who are really good at it tend to achieve high reproduction rates.
6&gt; You can play on your own but it's better with another human.
7&gt; It isn't always easy to find someone to play with.
8&gt; People are constantly inventing new and interesting ways of playing.
9&gt; You can pretend to be a pirate if you want to.
10&gt; Your girlfriend won't let you do it as much as you'd like to.

Suggestions welcome.
I thought of some tasteless reasons too but I didn't want to post them.

------------------
"Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?"
"Uh, I think so Brain, but how are we gonna teach a goat to dance with flippers on? "

12&gt; Just because you have the bigger weapon, it doesn't necssarily mean you're a better player.
13&gt; It can be frustrating for other players if you pull out before the game is finished.
14&gt; It's a good idea to make sure a certain amount of time has elapsed before victory conditions apply.
15&gt; You have to get past all sorts of defences before you can "drop your troops off"

------------------
"Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?"
"I think so, Brain, but if they called them sad meals, kids wouldn't buy them.
