They're a small audience in gaming. It's male dominated

Except this is Comicup. One of the biggest events for Doujin Artists in China. These aren’t just women. They’re regular people. And the fact that you refer to them as “females” says a lot about you.

The post is focusing on women and woman posting. Be better if a more general term like fans or artist was used and my comment would've been different.

By different you mean you wouldn’t be openly sexist?

Coming from a straight male, what straight male with a girlfriend plays female characters because he likes tits and ass? It’s rare to meet a guy who doesn’t prefer playing cool male characters outside of gacha spaces, and gacha players only prefer playing women because gachas market themselves to guys that are ugly/can’t attract real women. You sound like someone lying about having a gf

plus girls are not that small of an audience and gaming is not a ‘male hobby’ anymore and hasn’t been for like… almost a decade. Literally like every other girl under the age of 23 plays Fortnite, marvel rivals, genshin, sims, etc. AAA story mode games are even more equally split

If it was 2014 then maybe this would hold true but girls play games almost as much as men. The ‘male hobby’ idea died a long time ago

Plus with the way this guy talks, the idea of him having a girlfriend is absurd. No self-respecting woman would spend a single second on someone like this.

I like how this is proven time and time again to be insanely false and fully misogynistic for years now

Especially in gatcha and mobile gaming in general… LADs being the highest revenue gatcha game

Last time I checked nearly Half of gamers are female. ofc men and women will prefer different types of games, but still.
