The Dredge Tank. For posting all the low tier reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else. Got some bullshit from Reddit with 2 upvotes and want to share, post it here.

This community was created with the purpose that Rule 8 fans will just block it.

The rules are literally The Dunk Tank's rules, just without rule 8.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

It depends on the poll you’re looking at, but men make up a little over half of US gamers,

Being serious for a second, polls that say that are kinda bunk, but for a different reason than the pic in the OP. It's kinda like asking about the gender split of "movie watchers" - it's a useless number because it's too broad to tell anyone anything about anything. Individual genre and platforms tend to have very different splits than the roughly even split for all games. For example, women are huge in the mobile gaming market, big in MMOs but a smaller percentage in console and PC gaming, and a small percentage in FPS games, that kind of thing. I'd be curious what the breakdown looks like for a PS5/PC horror game - it's almost certainly not 95/5 but it's probably not close to 50/50 either.
