You got that in one. As a female gamer I find it incredibly difficult to play the damn game when people bother me with "omg omg is that a girl?" "omg what are you doing out of the kitchen," etc. comments. What I have found that works for me is to play well, and find/build a community that wants to focus on gameplay and not immature antics.

Why is a 21 year old looking at 15 year old teenagers profiles?
Also, Validation of what?
When you say "met"....
A friend of mine wore a Princes Leia bikini to a Fancy Dress party before, and I don't think she is a huge Star Wars fan.....who cares? Her Husband (at the time) incidentally went in a Wookie costume.

lol, you joker
there are a lot of female gamers out there! the ones that give a crap about gaming are the ones that don't call themselves "princess" or "sexy" whatever -- they play the game, not the people.
And this is why I use mumble/TS when it comes to playing online with others. I tend to ignore the chat in game and just focus on VOIP.
If you want to play games, cool. Grab a headset and lets play.
If you want to make a big deal out of playing games for whatever reason, please at least be decent at the game and stop going on about it!

My partner is a gamer, more so than me! And she gets stick from time to time simply for being a girl... She often fears making it public that she is a girl in games like GW2 or what have you. Simply as it can be a bit odd.
She has one guy who creates new FB accounts just to stalk her and message her (if I ever get hold of the little ****, keeps threatening to top him self if she doesn't respond. Wish he would just do it already). However, on the flip side are attention whores who use the industry to their advantage. Such as streaming.
My partner wants to stream playing LoL as she enjoys the game and finds having someone to talk to/narrate her gameplay too is fun, as do I. Hence we watch each other play games. But the sad truth is, even though she is creepily good at LoL, it won't matter unless she gets her boobs out on cam in a tight tshirt. Not going to happen.
Basically, nerds are creepy and obsess over 'gaming chicks' simply because they see a bit of bust or a tonne of makeup on a chick. Poor lads wouldn't know what hit them if they stepped out side to a bar these days.
Also, nothing makes me laugh more than my partner in LoL screaming over "WARD YOU STUPID PLEB!!!", followed by a quivering reply, "uhh, you're a girl?".

Boom, read my post, exactly that and I see it first hand. Gaming nerds can be damn creepy and crazy at times.
Glad I'm a 'normal' gamer.
There's a huge difference on twitch between 'real' girl gamers and the ones who are in it for the money.
The ones with cams over 25% of their stream with it aiming down their top are there purely for the $$$$ as they can make more on twitch then the proper 'adult' cam sites.

I've wanted to stream for ages, since I did a scary game one, I really enjoy people enjoying the stream and having a laugh with me as I play a game. Sounds daft. But yea.
I'd never do it for money, simply as what's the point? I've no idea how current big streamers expect to carry on this 'career' for another 50 years?
It's a part time job if anything, but should never be taken to a serious level as your main income. In my opinion.
I sometimes stream whenever I'm planning on doing moderately entertaining things in a game to show it off to friends as it happens, I don't think I'd fancy ever taking it up seriously though.. Would end up spending more time on making sure it was good compared to just playing the game.
most no; must just want to have fun......I mean yea I'd love to be able to call it quits on my job and just do video game videos
and going to start streaming regularly different games.....If I make some money off it; sweet......if not doesn't matter as I'm still having a blast recording
*437 videos later and counting*

If you wanted to get into production then doing your own show could be a start
