Real Girls Gaming
It seems the gamer girl stereotype has shifted, where once we were unbearably unsightly; we now seem to be naked. When I became aware of this strange trend, I laughed, since I was sure this wasn’t the case (being of the gaming in clothes persuasion). But my search for attired ladies playing games only managed to support this odd nude gaming moniker (found so many images of naked ladies tangled in controllers). Though all these ladies are beautiful (clearly not unsightly) and have lovely breasts (who doesn’t like boobs!), it felt a little unbalanced. We really don’t all play naked.
Thus my quest was born! To collect as many images of clothed ladies actually playing games (not just posing with a controller).
That’s how it started anyway. It has since morphed into anything rah-rah women gaming, but the prudish part is staying!!
Know of something that would fit right in? Send it over or tell me about it.

Ashley ‘ladyinsanity’ Soriano , 22, started turning heads with her FPS skills when she competed in console shooters such as Call of Duty and Halo, but now she’s making waves as a StarCraft 2 competitor after winning the latest Iron Lady Bronze to Gold Mousepad Challenge. She tore through both the winner’s and loser’s brackets to the grand finals, where she faced her fellow teammate S4KuR4 for an intense rematch, during which ladyinsanity managed to even up the series then seal the deal with a 2-0 victory after S4KuR4’s subsequent forfeit.

You guys are aware that Scarlett was born a man, and not a woman. So therefore not really a "girl gamer" ???

In her own words [via]:
“Okay, to stop all this speculation - it is true I am MtF transgender, and I kinda expected this reaction. I have never tried to bring attention to myself for anything other than my play, so I don’t feel like this should be a big deal,” said Scarlett in her Reddit comment.
As far as I am concerned its her prerogative. She identifies as female therefor fits perfectly. Just makes me want to post more pictures of her wins. <3
