Paint Ball?

I have been asked to go do paint ball this week-end, but don't know whether or not to go. Isn't it mainly a guy thing? I'm a girl (and not a young girl!). Should I go or stay home? Could I get hurt?

Update:

Every single answer was GREAT! I can't pick just one... I want to pick them all!! So I'm going to put it to a vote. Good Luck and thank you all so much!

I AM going to go on Saturday! Wish me luck.

    I went once and enjoyed it. My two girl friends didn't though. We went with a bunch of guys, and they're monsters on the field. I recommend wearing long sleeves and long pants, cause the balls kind of hurt when they hit you. I was more surprised than hurt when I got hit.

    getting hit with a paintball does hurt sometimes!! I have had bruises all over my back! It is very fun but you may have to deal with some pain! The worst is getting hit in the back of the head so i would suggest a full helmet instead of just a face shield. If you can take it, go and i am sure you will have a great time!!

    It might hurt. The part that hurts most is getting hit on fat, or soft tissue. If you are athletic, and adventurous, go ahead. If you are like me and prefer to not have to run from flying, hard pellets, just watch.

    I'm a longtime paintballer and often there are girls playing. Give it a try and if you like it then go back. If you don't, then no one can fault you for not having tried it.
