I don't know what number I was expecting, but 75% is pretty significant. I don't mind having hard data even when it backs up a common assumption.

We pretty much know the gamer demographic in general skews male. Like so many things, men and women are often predisposed to different activities. Whether this is a product of nature or nurture is anyone's guess, but the only thing these particular articles seem to service is the SJW agenda. How often do you hear about the gender disparity of nurses, child care workers, or makeup artists? How about loggers, firefighters, or shoreworkers? I'm willing to bet the answer is never - because it simply doesn't matter.

If you want to be a gamer, the only hard requirement is that you like playing games. If you want to be an ESports fan, the only hard requirement is that you like esports. There is no real barrier to entry. Those that want to do this sort of thing will. Regardless of their gender.
