"However, one key difference in the study--which collected information from more than 2,000 US adults this summer--is that men (15 percent) are more than twice as likely as women (6 percent) to call themselves 'gamers.'"

There you go.

Would you call yourself a "gamer" if all you played was fucking Candy Crush and Angry Birds? I don't think so.

"GAMES ARE SEXIST THATS WHY WOMEN DONT PLAY THEM"

"OH THEY PLAY THEM

UH

WOMEN ARE JUST AS SEXIST AS MOST MEN ANYWAY"

And what types of games do women tend to play?

Super Smash Bros.? By herself? I don't fucking think so.

There's also a study that shows that the PC market specifically is pretty much a 50/50 split.

But whatever

Literally what

I couldn't have been more clear.

Girls do not play the same games as guys do.

Girls are far less likely to play games that denigrate them than guys are.

This is a problem.

Where's your proof for all this?

It's common sense. Ask any girl what her opinion on women's representation in games is. I swear, do it.

Some of them will say they don't care--they're misogynists. They betray their own gender.

Which is why saying that women play video games just as much as men do is extremely misleading.

Everybody already fucking knows that a woman designed Bayonetta. I'm sick of people saying this like it's a fun fact.

Am I supposed to be impressed by that? That just means that the designer of Bayonetta is a misogynist cunt.
