Not after Gamer-Gate, no.

Christ no, I'm a grown ass man.
Are you?Christ no, I'm a grown ass man.
.I am as much a "gamer" as I am a "reader" or a "viewer". I don't see the point of discussing it at all.
Yup. That's how I see it.Dear lord this is one of the dumbest fucking things to come out in the past few years.
If you play and like games and it's your hobby, you're a gamer.
Gamer is not a dirty word.

So? This comment just makes you sound insecure. Grown ass men can listen to music, watch movies, and play games, right? Unless I'm missing something as to what being a gamer actually means lol

People who have to reinforce that they are an adult just prove they aren't there yet.Sure, why not.
Are you?
I don't define myself through whatever media I'm consuming.

It's been the most enduring hobby I've ever had. I'm 35.
It's the only career I've really ever known.
Most of my friends are from the industry or are heavily invested in games and the culture.
In many ways its the glue that allowed us to become friends and have other shared interests.
It's something in my life that has always made me happy and continues to make me happy.
I do many other things but i simply couldn't imagine life without video games even though i take great pleasure in traveling, spending time with friends, eating out etc...
labeling any person to an activity can be limiting. To me it's something special as it's given me a job, friends and something i choose to actively spend my free time doing.
A happy life to me is a successful mixture of many things but if that makes me a "Gamer" then sure, i don't hate the term but i don't feel it's entirely accurate.
A "Gamer" could be someone who just plays COD and FIFA.
That's my small opinion on the subject [/QUOTE
I agree with this man. I'm a 35 year old hubby, father and employee. I thoroughly enjoy getting up at 4am, an hour earlier than I should, to start my day with good coffee and some game time. Gaming is my hobby, not what defines me.
