While we're talking about Girl Gamers and the hostility they face, can we put this meme to bed? There is no "expectation vs reality", and forcing geek girls to conform to only one standard is how the shaming terrorists win.

Gamer Girls take all shapes and forms, and it's time for us to stop knocking each other down. "A house divided" and all that jazz.
