Women in the streaming community often find themselves in positions far from ideal. This is not a good sign, considering it’s now 2022. Pokimane has had to deal with her fair share of problems that she faced as a content creator and streamer. In 2021, Pokimane even posted a tweet about people’s attitude towards women in gaming: “It’s bouta be 2022 and people are still mad about women in gaming?”
