Dont get me wrong, everything you mentioned is absolutely terrible and should never happen. But none of it is unique to female streamers On everyone's least favorite infamous imageboard, they're obnoxious with death threats. Get into a discussion and get into a disagreement? "kys". Post something someone doesn't like? "kys". It's obnoxious and such a lazy response and comes off as an admission of defeat. So yeah, it's not a girl thing, it's an internet thing. The girl identity does exacerbate the issue because on the internet, you're anonymous and you have no reputation. What gives people a reason to listen to you is the ideas and content you bring to the table. Girls, by admission of their gender, gain a advantage in building their identity just by disclosing their gender, an extreme minority in these communities. So guys are generally going to be hostile to that notion. That being said, I'm immensely proud of my Fire Emblem community as it's fairly balanced in gender (well, more so than most titles) and my community is civil, helpful, and rather close knit. Hearing about death threats is unheard of. --- imgtc.com/i/4HgTl0ebzq.jpg imgtc.com/i/60CWP2Gtlg.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

I don't envy women in general, but definitely not female gamers.

Why would anyone think female gamers = easy mode when gamer status alone puts you in the most oppressed class?

I agree that it's a bit harsh to label anyone who's hurt and lonely as toxic (would be nice if people had that same consideration for me in the past TBH), but it only takes a modicum of self awareness to realize that women as a whole aren't evil and out to get you because a twitch streamer didn't return your feelings after donating.

CapnMuffin posted...This is really accurate. Nerd culture produces some of the most fucked up little shits. Nerd culture is, by definition, not mainstream. Only certain aspects of it have caught on with the public. A lot of the stuff that we talk about is unknown or unpopular to the general public. You think that your average frat boy has ever heard of Planescape: Torment? Or reads comic books? Or knows of anime outside a select few series? --- I make a topic in Final Fantasy 12 to ask if Tifa!

I mean nerd culture is certainly more mainstream than it used to be with the advent of the internet and social media, but that somehow hasnt made it any less ... toxic and unwelcoming if you arent part of the majority.
Its very isolating and alienating. Im just some random woman and I dont really feel like I can connect with people over my interests due to the toxicity and not really knowing others into the same stuff irl --- uwu SW-0239-3946-8686 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Well said, but that doesnt excuse ruining someones reputation or sending threats because youre a lonely boy online. It just doesnt which is more or less what Im talking about You're both right - but with the reputation ruining stuff - there just needs to be a bigger stigma against online harassment and digital vigilantism.

Yeah its obvious that harassment isnt taken seriously online. Youre right about digital vigilantism too.

I don't know who that is. Could you elaborate?STPeach is basically the person that began the entire cycle of hate female twitch streamers get. The only reason she became popular is because her streams would constantly feature fake nip slips, and she would always angle the camera in such a way that either her cleavage, cameltoe, or ass would be visible to the audience. This attracted a lot of young boys and foreveralones which skyrocketed the popularity of Twitch. She then went on to receive thousands upon thousands of dollars from donations explicitly by using her physical image and playing games and having no idea what she was talking about. --- I've grown. ...

I agree with most of that as well as far as people who are genuinely manipulative and exploitative, but entertainment by default isn't inherently exploitation, even if it is suggestive in nature.
