A
female gamer who enjoys playing games and regularly does so. Female gamers vary widely between the extremes of 'casual' and 'hardcore' gaming, and may be interested in any genre or type of game. They may have a particular game that they specialize in, or may play a variety of different games.
Girl gamers are most often noticed in FPS games as they're
rarer there, rather than in MMOGs where there are many female players.
Girl gamers may also pretend to be male in order to avoid comments about their gender while gaming, which can make girl gamers seem even rarer. Girl gamers may also be difficult to notice outside of a game, as girl gamers often talk about things besides games while they're not playing them.
Girl gamer can also refer to any girl who plays games that are though to be more popular with males, for example Dungeons and Dragons.
