Why is it if a woman games on twitch she is branded an attention seeker?

[StormMistress]

Like honestly it doesn’t matter if you want to stream for fun, you love to game or anything. Just being a female twitch streamer instantly brands you as just an attention seeker by so many people. Why is this and why does it happen mainly to women and not men? Most men who stream arnt branded attention seeking. Yet you just have to be a woman and all of a sudden your streaming boils down to just wanting attention.

[Crafteroon]

That is quite a generalization. And let's be clear, playing games doesn't "brand" anyone. How they behave, how they treat their community, what is the focus of their streams (actually playing games, chatting with community, reacting to others), that brands a person.

Everyone likes to play comfortably, but if your clothes don't really cover skin, and your webcam isn't focused on your face, chances are you have prepared yourself with others claiming you as attention seeking.

There is a vast difference between a female gamer streaming on twitch and a female "gamer" making everyone aware of their Only fans account while streaming on twitch.

Because many are. Look at the most successful female streamers there. Either titties streamers, or drama streamers.
There aren't many women on top who are there to play. That's the reality of it. I'm following a couple of them there, who are really interesting, but they don't have nearly as many viewers as those with tits out, or those who live off of drama.
Women there are seen as attention seekers because they've set it like that, and made their fame out if it. It's sad but they're the ones who choose it that way.

twitch is full of guys that are simps for literally any female that exists on the platform. Twitch streamers typically have "no simping" as a chat rule, but the ones who don't are usually leeching off of it for subs and bits and donations. That sweet, sweet Streamlabs money.

Then you have the ones that straight up ARE attention seekers. Can you think of any reason other than attention to sell your bath water to simps? Those are the ones that Twitch sure does love promoting.

TL;DR

Stereotypes, that's all

[Ez-Bri-Z]

Iunno, I haven't run into that problem but I also don't wear clothes that are meant to expose my breasts just to get viewers either.

There are ways to spot a girl Twitch streamer that's doing it for *THAT* kind of attention. Even girls can spot them.

Exaggerated, but not that far off. Lol.
It's OK for girls to be gamers and streamers. I've seen enough of them that are genuine gamers.

[jasco]

Well a lot of people say female streamers usually only get the amount of subs because they show their tits or something. So they aren't doing it for fun or the love of the game, their doing it for attention/money. Personally do as you wish. I don't really watch streamers that often

[Cowboy6666]

I don't judge a lady on that tbh.
I appreciate kind, straightforward ladies who are genuine and honest with me.
You seem that kind 😜

[StormMistress]

Naw Thankyou ❤️

[Cowboy6666]

well you are my crush here already <3

Because whether it's her intention or not, being an average or attractive female streamer beings her a severely disproportionate degree of attention relative to men doing the same thing. Any attention men get is overwhelmingly because of some ability they bring to the stream. Women don't need that to succeed in that space.

[jahaims]

Because there are tons that do it for attention/money and it gives everyone else a bad rap. I would go as for to say most are wanna be egirls trying to bait simps into giving them money and they aren't gaming because they enjoy it.

[skyeee_]

honestly i dunno. but i just love how the actual attention seekers are ignored (i mean the ones who do some explicit shit and still get away with it. if anything they're still making money)

[TallAnon]

Every streamer is an attention seeker, female or not. Women being treated differently is obvious in a male dominated space, but it's pretty common nowadays, so people don't care as much anymore.

[Dargil]

Don't worry about being branded. It can't harm you.

[Caunsos]

If your streaming on twitch you are seeking attention. The hole point of streaming is to have viewers.

[Anonymous]

It’s because literally the only reason they gain such a huge audience is because they’re hot, and not for any other reason.

[Subarugirl]

Because a lot of men just see women as sexual object and get upset when they don't fit that mold.

[anylolone]

Everyone streaming is branded an attention seeker.
Attention is the fun of streaming.

Stop the fucking bullshit.

[Zenit93]

Because 90% of popular female twitch streamers have their tits out.

[Anonymous]

I don't know where liberals find the people they refer to. Unless you're referring to the women who deliberately wear incredibly skimpy clothing and then go on cam, almost nobody says these things.

[motownplayer2000]

Well is she there to play games or to subconsciously or subliminally promoting there onlyfans page?

[Godsvengeance]

All streamers are attention seekers, regardless of sex.

[Shy_Steve]

I'm not sure, I don't really know much about Twitch but I think Female gamers are cool.

[SignedAutographs]

People are on there to make money. They need the attention to make their money

[TsAubreyKate]

Blame attention seeking Fake Egirls who stream for money not for the love of gaming

[Daniela1982]

"Twitch" Is that a combo of "Twat" and "bitch"?

[Slartybartfast]

Twitch is litteraly attention seeking..

[AvaOneLasTime]

Viewer stupidity and stereotyping.

[rabbitzzz]

Its one of the ways they get into your nerves.

[Fromdusktilldawn]

A"thot". Its like onlyfans

[vald9inches]

Its usually from incels and jealous boys

[CuriousMufuxka]

Because it's usually a titshow?

[mr2inches]

I don’t think that’s always true

[msc545]

Doesn't make sense really.

[JesseJayNeak]

Because Twitch is a porn site

[Anonymous]

Cause the women have their tits out

[Anonymous]
