I haven't posted on here in awhile. I've just been lingering in the shadows, haha. But I've been pondering this a bit lately and was curious of other people's opinions and experiences. Some of us magicians pride ourselves on our sleight of hand and the technicalities of things. Does that...

Hello there. So I'm fairly new to the forums here at Theory 11. I've been hanging around here for awhile but i haven't really participated much. But, I thought I could start by asking for some advice. It's no secret that it is rare for girls to be magicians. Which, in turn can make it...
