In your country, is there more boy or girls gamers ?

i think, about 70% - males

Why the hell does it/should it matter? People have different hobbies, and we all have the right to enjoy whatever hobby we choose....doesn't matter what sex, gender, religion, etc we are.

-Error 404 girl not found-

All I know, whether adventurer or adventuress, deep inside we are all little princesses.

I don't know any girl who plays something more than just Candy Crush or Just Dance.

If they take into account Candy Crush and Farmville, they should consider taking into account and this frog.

We are all gamers at the end of the road right? is it matters if you are a girl or a boy? ._.

considering games are the commoners/peasants and cultural scoundrels most favored past time activity
and since males are worse commoners/peasants/scoundrels (usually), and i know more male ones
than female ones (esp. in das boundaries of mein Land) i'd say males BOOM !!!11eleven - science

Gender shouldn't matter.

In Poland? Women gamers? They are minority! xD

Studies show that 83% of people make up 75% of all statistics to fit 100% of their statements.

Surprising statistics...

We must define our terms first. Who is a gamer? Is it just a person who plays videogames? Or is it a member of a game (sub)culture with it's own system of values, slang, celebrities, important historical events, etc?

I lean towards second. My mom, sister and niece play games on mobile devices regularly, but I don't consider them gamers.

have more KappaPride ^^

Don't know, I'm a proud lone gamer u.u

ps: probably male gamers are way more common in my country, and most of them know quite only FIFA.

As always, you can't tell if there are more male or female gamers unless you actually define gamers. There are several ways to do so, including:

• consider "gamer" anyone who ever touched a game, even just a facebook game or a trivia game. This is what usually people who do these researches do. That's why they come up with ludicrous percentages, while our personal experience dictates that World of Warcraft/Call of Duty (insert any MMO/FPS title) is mostly a sausage fest.
• consider "gamer" anyone who defines himself a gamer. That would be probably a fair method, unless people would define themselves gamers because it's "cool" (10 years ago it was actually the opposite).
• consider gamer anyone who plays "serious business" titles on "serious" hardware. That again opens a can of worms, as a console owner would consider a PS4/XB1 the ultimate gamer machine, a PC purist will consider a next-gen console as a toddler's toy.
• stop doing pointless researches. I mean, you don't do statistics on fishermen by packing those who work on a ship for a living and those who go fishing once a year on vacation in the same group, and say "hey, even if you think otherwise, 50% of fishermen are qualified lawyers".

You have 5 unactivated games :

Adventures of Shuggy

You must activate every game you win on the Steam account linked to SG.

Gamer girls is myth..

Ah hello statistic nerds.

I once dated a girl who played WoW and turned out to be really bad in bed.
So I set out to see if the hypothesis 'all WoW-playing-girls are bad in bed' istrue.

According to my current sample size(p=2), the hypothesis is true.
Actually I need 2 more volunteers for a 95% confidence level at interval 50.
Volunteers are welcome.

Fror now, just to be sure: Don't date a girl who plays WoW.

protip: date Iranian girls.

I don't really care what statistics are.
I'd refrain for saying one way or another, 'cause simply we can't really know. I know more female gamers than male, but my statistic sample is really small and is biased because I spent more time with women. The other thing is that I don't ask everyone I know if they play games, I usually find out by accident. There are probably plenty of people who play games (I intentionally don't use word gamer now), but I know nothing about it, let alone know their preferences and gaming habits. For example, I was really shocked when I found out that my 15-year old sister and her friends (female friends) spend free time playing CoD and other shooters. She watches a lot of other games on youtube (she loves The Forest for example), but her stupid parents won't buy her new pc (with the current one she can play flash games at most :<). The twist is that she is a person who I'd never expect to have any interest in games (let alone games like e.g. Outlast) - she is sociable, in the way that usually annoys me, you know, instagram, facebook, being "in love" with members of some boysbands.
Another thing is that there is no firm definition of gamer.

I don't think there's a single country in the entire world where the gamer population is predominantly female. It's just not possible. Video games are more beloved by men. It's just a fact of life.

i've lately decided that everyone here on SG is a lady (not a girl mind you). so, my country is 1% of the users here... and i have not idea how many people play games where i'm from.

Female in game world???? They do not exist !!!
Jokes aside , when i was playing wow out of 30 people raiding there was only 5 girls. Well in mine guild at least :)

My new female coworker knows a surprising amount of games and played most of them. Plus, she is hot, single and isn't dumb. I'm not sure how to react in a situation like this.
