Do Girls Play Games?



"I know it sounds stupid but I never met one or heard of a girl that plays video games. Is it because the gender gap in the gaming industry? like there are not many games with a female protagonist, the only ones I know is Bayonetta and Lollipop Chainsaw which both of them target male gamers because they have a LOT of fan service. Are there any female gamers out there? And is it true that the ones out there are ugly and fat?"
                                                                                             boy's words.                     
No, please don't get me wrong. Ain't going to make any controversy here. peace yo! I just wanna discuss bout this. So, do girls play games? Yeah girls do play games. There are a lot of games for girls out there. Barbie games, princess games.......




But the real question is, "do girls play video games?" or is it only boys conquer the video games? Well as we'd already known games can be played by everyone, either male or female. 

I read that about 31% of gamers are women. The average gamer is about 30 years old and has been gaming for 13 years. And I think, not to sure, but I am pretty sure I read that 17% of the gaming community are boys aged 17 or younger. I could be wrong though. So about 31% are women, 17% are boys 17 and younger, and 52% are men ages 18 and older.

I think those statements are convince enough to answer that question - do girls play video games?

Let's proceed to the next point, "is it true that the ones out there are ugly and fat?" Lol there are also fat and ugly gamer boys, so what's the problem? Sorry if I'm being emotional :')

As a conclusion, girls do play games. And you can go on YouTube and you'll find a lot of gamer girls who are actually really attractive.

  2. Hmm. Agreed with girls playing video games. Me also play counter strike, need for speed and other games. Not all girls will play such cooking games, or barbie games. Everybody has their own interest to play what they want. So, don't be surprised if the girls play dota and so on.
