Women over 18 made up a whopping 36 percent of the gaming population, followed by adult men at 35 percent. Teenage boys, who are often stereotyped as the biggest gamers, now lag far behind their older female counterparts, making up just 17 percent of the gaming demographic. (x)I still get hate for this. Keep sharing it!Isn’t this that shit “study” that includes ever touching candy crush or farmville as a sign of being a “gamer?” Why yes, two seconds of reading the source shows it is!Boy hoes in the notes big mad that farming strawberries or playing some games on your phone doesn’t really make you a “gamer”, lol. These are the mean girls who say “I’m a gamer uwu” and bash on actual female gamers, saying we only like games to please dudes and that we should “just accept our womanhood.” You know what gaming is not just for boys and most boys who think gaming is just for them and that girls need to stop is bullshit this reminds me of a SVU episode in which male gamers kidnapped and r*pped a female for either making a game or being a female gamer it was horrific My point is male toxicity like this that only males can play and girls should be making you a sandwich? Is sick Girls can play and boys can suck it because their is a lot of pro female gamers who can totally pig your pig ass Most of the hostility towards me gaming came from other women. My aunt gets constantly on my case for gaming saying if I continue “acting like a man” my husband will cheat on me. My classmates excluded, humiliated me, and saw me as less of a woman for playing games. My teachers told me to start “having more feminine interests” in order to make friends. My mother openly sneered at my gaming and it took years for her to accept me. Ten years later I see the classmates who bullied me playing Pokemon Go and Candy Crush and calling themselves gamers saying “we girl gamers can totally kick your asses.” Never mind the fact that they have no regrets for bullying me. We all are well aware that girl gamers exist. In fact, we make up 40% of gamers. It’s just that there’s a big difference between women who play games and women who CLAIM to play games because it’s woke while sneering at women who actually play games. And it’s fucking exhausting as someone who’s been playing games, who’s seen fellow girls in gaming, who’s seen the diversity IN GAMING for fucking DECADES. Because it’s always used to do some ‘oh we’re taking over gaming now, get ready to do what we want now!’ from the asshole mean girls who are trying to force their way in, and STILL want to pretend people like us don’t exist and never existed in the first place. I don’t want you here and I never wanted your fucking smug condescension, OP! I DO NOT NEED SOME TWENTY SOMETHING GUY TELLING ME I FUCKING EXIST, YOU GOBSHITE.What’s weird is that when people bring up the whole “Male Hostility towards Women” in game it’s always the ‘alpha frat gamer going on about bitches, and get back in the kitchen and girls can’t play games and…” All these articles don’t bring up the inverse of this… which before I would probably call “Attention chaser” but now thanks to the updated lexicon, I’ll just call them what they are. Simps. I’m sure people know the guy I’m talking about. The one that will help carry you in league rankings, the one that organizes raids in mmos, the ones that give you a point/time card to help keep up with a game. “Oh those sound like just being nice”. I mean to a point… and then it comes off as creepy or thirsty. We’re talking “Let the girl get first drops” or “Hey guys help carry Sarah through this” and on and on. Weird they always talk about the “Bitch get out” stance that’s supposed to be everywhere in gaming but they don’t want to talk about the thirsty creepy doormats. Just saying that seems to say something. -- source link
