The trick is they define “gaming” to mean angry birds and handheld stuff. By their reasoning, I’m a gamer. (Played Angry Birds a few weeks ago.) When you go see who is making all of those gaming rigs on YouTube, you see what “gaming” actually is. And it’s 90% male.https://twitter.com/tictoc/status/1080860735817875463 …

45% of U.S. gamers are female, yet women make up a very small portion of the esports player pool due to toxicity and other barriers pic.twitter.com/dGFu8i2HXR

  I consider it pretty "toxic" to lie about figures over and over again, purposely skewing the definition of the term "gamer" until it literally means your grandma playing snake on her mobile. Oh and then implying she isn't playing CS:GO due to ppl being mean. pic.twitter.com/MXjYXfu1X3

  I’m not buying you played Angry Birds a few weeks ago. No one has touched that game in 5 years outside of a 2 year old.

  Candy crush does not qualify you a "gamer". Last i checked the gaming industry was booming

  My son has a gaming PC and goes hard core with friends about 10 hours a week. My daughters we have to take away their phone, tablets, and even xbox because they would be on them playing games non stop. My girls even have fortnite swag in their rooms. Whose the gamer?
