Why do men treat women gamers bad? I legit want true honesty here (open up)

Hey there, I'm a gamer from Texas. I have a legit question I really want to know. After encountering so many rude remarks flirting, or even observing fellow female gamers yelled at/cat called...I really wanna know why a lot if you Lads don't like women? There would be times nothing would happen and yelling name calling and harassment would arise. Almost all of the times the lady gamer werent doing anything and the male would pick at her. Either being sexual or really aggressive. I noticed male gamers would get super mad when she would try to defend herself as if she had no right to defend herself. Then there are the few sweet guys that are super quiet guys. Only 1% percent out of 99 percent. Just tell me a simple sentence of what your attitude towards women is, in the gaming community. Is it Jealousy? Nervousness? No contact with women? Or you just don't like women gaming? Thanks.[spoiler]im watching he honest ok....[/spoiler]

  • For me, it's when they use gaming to have thirsty people for attention or profit instead of legitimately enjoying gaming of any kind. This is especially apparent when we see female streamers that only play FIFA or Call of Duty, having webcames set up just to see their boobs and receiving over $1000 donations because of their looks. Few streamers and YouTubers actually provide content without having their looks controlling their channel, such as Ms5oooWatts, Laced Up Lauren, lolRenaynay, and so much more. Sure they're beautiful women, but that's not their focus; their focus is on the game that they're playing. A huge controversy covered this point with Smash Bros. Icon Sky Williams addressing this situation, but then blew up to a huge scale argument with other female streamers such as Kaceytron and previously mentioned lolRenaynay, being covered on websites such as Kotaku. Men have a prejudice outlook on women that play video games because we're unsure if they're saying that to gain attention rather than being dedicated gamers. Not to mention the countless controller selfies with women being almost being naked with a controller covering their tits all across Instagram, Facebook, generally any social media outlet has these people that do this.
