There has to be a distinction made between casual mobile video gaming and console or PC gaming. Stats would suggest 50% of gamers are indeed female. Whereas that figure reduces significantly when you ignore mobile platforms. I believe Snowypooch is referring to console PC gaming.

We don't have to make this political, but since you went there...
Maybe the reason women stay away from MP games is that they get exposed to the worst of the "get back to the kitchen" mentality of certain types who think that women have no place in "male" spaces like video games, sports, politics, the workplace, etc.

I've never heard the "get back to the kitchen" mentality in, like, say, the last fifty years, so I think that statement is absurd.
