Awkwafina on How Gaming Has Gotten Her Through 2020: "It's a Way to Unwind"

"I think that's a total misconception," she said of the idea that men like gaming more than women. "That's speaking not just as an observer of humans, but from my own personal experience, the people that have beat me the most have been women. It's not right to say that girls wouldn't be good at video games. It's those stereotypes that prevent us from wanting to pick up a Nintendo Switch. What I find now is it's definitely not just for men. Clearly. Most of the people I play with are women. I think there is something to be discovered about that. I don't think that women should feel held back because they're a female gamer. It should be for everybody right now."
