New York .

Many posted longform accounts using the platforms TwitLonger or Medium to explain events that may have occurred years ago.

this is dumb.

Checkmate gamers you all sexual harass women because these 100 women self described themselves as harassed. See video games are bad parents, we’ve been telling you for years!

Incels.

portilho Why do some people still think games are only for boys? Bruh look at LuluLuvely she's probably better than you in Apex.

Tbh, a lot of these stories seem fake others are true, but glad the actual victims are coming out.

Toxic masculinity. There is an elephant in the room but no one seems able to point it out.

This has been going on for years since the early 2000s. My daughter and sons would even go to tournaments, and we had to stand bodyguard because of the language and anger if she was winning. Other girls were in tears with the male anger and dominance.

The nice thing about multi-player computer games is if somebody is giving you a hard time you can usually shoot them in the head or chop them into little pieces with a buffed up battle axe without breaking any laws.

Computer geeks know what sex is? 🤣

Breaking: A large percentage of gamers have no idea how to appropriately talk to women. 😂😂😂. Sorry to the gamers out there, could not resist.

I was shocked when I started playing games online how many people have slept with my mom

Haha, sure. gamergate

BITCHS SUCK AT VIDEO GAMES SO WHO CARES

Not in the least bit surprised by what Ive heard some kids saying to girls in these party rooms. Nothing short of disgusting.

Unfortunately due to the overuse &/or lies regarding this issue I find it incredibly unlikely, I acknowledge there might be a few victims. The majority, nope! We live in a victim mentality where everybody feels like a victim of the newest hot button topic put forth by Leftist MSM

Wait, is anyone still surprised? I quit MMOs and multiplayer games for a reason - got tired of hiding my gender to be taken seriously.

Kahit saan naman nangyayari yan. Women should learn to protect ourselves as much as we can.

What industry doesn't have this problem?

How about the misconduct of coordinating a coup against the president on starwars chat rooms.
