I’m sick to death of girls saying “These girls aren’t even on my level… if she showers to play “video games” she isn’t a real gamer chick -.- FUCK SHOWERING TODAY!” (direct quote from the “gamer girls” tag), because you’re just degrading the people who take pride in the way they look. It’s actually really common, though - oh, you wear make up and take pictures of yourself occasionally? NOT A REAL GAMER, I’M MORE LEGIT THAN YOU BECAUSE I DON’T PUT ANY EFFORT INTO THE WAY I LOOK!

No. Girls can be both, it’s entirely possible. Just because she’s pretty and she might be vain/poses with her controller half-naked, doesn’t mean she doesn’t play games. It also doesn’t make her less of a gamer, or less of a person.
