"Rude and gross": Pokimane hits back at viewer's holding female streamers attractiveness against them

sportskeeda.com:

Imane 'Pokimane' Anys hit back at viewers for holding a female streamer's attractiveness against her and making a big deal about it compared to men on the entertainment circuit.

Despite being one of the most popular streamers in the industry, the Moroccan-Canadian personality isn't a stranger to hate-raids. However, she has served as an advocate for women in gaming and hits back at misogynistic comments now and then.

A portion of the community recently bombarded her with sexist comments because Pokimane received a two-day DMCA ban, as opposed to Disguised Toast, alluding to a month-long ban for a similar incident.

Here's how she responded to the comments during one of her recent streams:

Pokimane further explained her stance by reiterating how several male entertainers have scores of female fans who find them attractive. But if being attractive doesn't discredit their work, then why is that the case for female streamers, she derided.

As already mentioned, Pokimane has hit back at sexist comments on numerous occasions. She lashed out at viewers suggesting they only watch her streams because she's attractive.

While Poki believes it's completely natural to find someone attractive, she stated how female streamers are looked at through a very narrow frame of reference, which often escalates to derogatory comments.

Pokimane has had enough of such scenarios where she has had to defend herself and her content just because she's attractive.

There were instances in 2021 when several from the community accused her of boosting her Valorant account because she's a female gamer.

However, Pokimane ended such comments with a mind-boggling clutch ace a few weeks later.
