That meme is not even true any more, they're permanently stuck in 2015 gamer culture. It's just obvious they don't know any women, most of the ones I regularly talk to play many of the games they consider "real", they're just not into gamer culture because 1) most people aren't anyways and 2) because these communities are toxic af for women. Same reason women prefer single player games or at least never reveal they are women, the moment someone figures out you're a woman in an online game you get 50 dumbasses awoogaing on you.
