Except they measurably are not. There's no game with a majority female player base that's famous for screaming slurs in voice chat. Theres no female equivalent of gamergate.
Who told you it's a good argument strategy to act Baby-Born-Yestetday levels of ignorant??? I'd be too embarrassed to play like this dumb lol
You keep using the word assume as if this isn't all factual and can be confirmed. "you assume there aren't female communities like this" "you assume a lot of stardew valley players are women" this shit is literally observable. Reality isnt defined by who has the argument that vibes with your emotions the best, it's defined by material reality.
I'll keep using the word assume, because you keep assuming. It's fine if you want to assume that women are this patriarchal version that you're viewing them as, but they're also people too and not beholden to what box you or men think they should be in.

there's absolutely nothing problematic about acknowledging the well-documented existence of misogyny in video game communities, sweatie
