I think part of the issue today is either commercial pressure or peer pressure to have kids grow up too fast. Back in my day kids of both genders played games together up until the age of about 10. Most of the games were coed.
Then the girls started doing “girl stuff” which was boring for us boys and we lost interest in the girls. A different kind of interest sort of came along several years later. What was good about the situation was that these were the same girls we played games with as kids, so we didn’t have to play games with them as adolescents.

“Thorny Staff of Godly Power”? Yep that’s going in my euphemism collection, right after “Wand of Watoomb”

“Arcanery?” Assuming the word intended was “arcana,” I’d expect that the machine would know better, unless it wanted to coin a new word.
