Want to know how sexism around video games effects me? Heres a new way that came into my life today-
I was informed that I know little to nothing about video games and that’s why I shouldn’t be on Game Grumps.
I play video games daily. Every day. I would even venture to say that I play more video games than half of the Game Grumps cast - but I am the one being singled out?
The amount of hate that I get from the Game Grumps community is insane. I have never been approached by an unhappy fan EVER in all of my con appearances and such, which leads me to believe this is just a “vocal minority” thing.
I can understand people saying “well, shes just not funny”-Everyone has a different sense of humor - and I am NEW to this! All of the guys have hundreds, if not thousands of episodes on me- I can only hope to achieve 1/10th of their skills- these things will come with time.
First and foremost game grumps was a show about friends hanging out and playing video games - when was being funny a prerequisite?
I don’t believe anyone on Game Grumps deserves the hate we get. We make a show for fun, to have fun. Why make it about something else?
