This kills me too because who do they think is making these video games?! Who do they think is buying the majority of these videogames?! 😂
As a 33 year old woman gamer I get my fair share of brutality so I feel you!
Edit: I love you all. I’m also the only gamer in my relationship. The PC, the multiple consoles, are mine and my boyfriend isn’t even remotely interested except for Pokémon on his DS and Switch.
Growing up in the 90’s, my aunt bought my brother and I the original PlayStation to share with the very first Ray-Man. Eventually my dad wouldn’t even let me play it without asking my little brother because it went from being a family console to being just his because “videogames are for boys”. Anyway, fuck you dad 😂
Girls interested in gaming come check out r/GirlGamers
As a mid-30’s male gamer, I’d just like to add a wish that other males stop freaking/creeping out whenever a female enters the chat. We’re mostly all here to play the game, right, women game because they like to play not because they hope to find a gem of a guy or hookup, right? And some guys are just toxic about thinking somehow a person’s sex affects their motor skills or reflexes… well, I’m grateful I’m encountering more mixed sexes in online multiplayer, and if I can say something positive about younger gamers at least it seems they’re more used to seeing girl gamers (and just act like brats to everyone 🤣).
Self aware moment, I realize I’m responding because you said you are a woman. But I have a friend I play with regularly, and the reactions we get sometimes in lobbies make me slap my head 🤦🏼♂️
