Gamer Girls: Defined
A lot can be said about gamer girls, and we’re going to explore the topic. Why? Because we love how gamer girls are so much more involved in the culture than they used to be. We think that their style and skill should be celebrated. If you’re reading this and you are a gamer girl or just wondering what the heck we’re talking about, then this is for you.
A gamer girl is more than just “a girl who plays video games.” You’ll see what we’re talking about as we dive deeper.
A gamer girl is someone in the gaming community who can hold her own among all the rest and is ready to beat anyone who challenges the idea that she’s only in it for attention. Gamer girls are hardcore because they’re constantly proving that they belong with the gamers and can bring just as much skill and style as anyone else.
Gamer girls have been around since the 80s and are an incredibly important asset to this culture. One might even go as far as to say that they’re vital, as they have been changing and improving gaming for years.
The History of Gaming and Gamer Girls
As we mentioned, gamer girls have been in this thing for a while. Not only have they been around playing the game, but they’ve also actually been shaping coding, art, and the business side of gaming as a whole. It all started in the 1980s.
Around that time, video games were becoming more and more popular. Most probably have the misconception that men were the only ones who were in charge of creating and selling the games, but that’s just not true. From the beginning, women have been heavily involved with designing, marketing, selling, and writing about video games.
We look up to women like Carol Shaw and Dona Bailey for having such a big role in video game production. After all, the games we know and love today wouldn’t be here without Centipede or River Raid. Speaking of the games we love today, we want to share what’s trending right now, and it’s all thanks to these gamer girls of the past.
What’s Trending Right Now
This might be a loaded topic because we all have our favorite games. However, no matter your personal opinion, some games are statistically higher on the rating chart than some others, and we want to highlight those. Take a look; you’ll either see one of your favorites on the list or be inspired to try out something new.
Call of Duty: Warzone
Number one on the list may be no surprise. We’re sure everyone has either heard about it or has played it themselves. Warzone is a battle-royale edition of Modern Warfare, and it is the game to be playing right now, either by yourself or with others. Careful; you might not be able to stop playing once you start.
Minecraft
Well, we know you’ve heard of this game. Minecraft has been going strong since it was released by Mojang in 2011. This is one of those games that’s popular among crowds of many ages. Build up your city, gather resources, and get ready for combat all in one game. There’s a reason Minecraft has sold over 176 million copies!
Fortnite
No game list would be complete these days without Fortnite. Like the two listed above, this one is popular with many different ages and personalities. Fortnite has gained immense traction in the gaming community since 2017 with its awesome multiplayer and creative qualities.
Grand Theft Auto V
The last one we’ll mention has to be this popular action-adventure pick. GTA is addictive to play, with its options to play in first or third-person, running around on foot or in a car evading the police. There’s just something gripping about the action and chase that this game allows.
The Qualities of a Gamer Girl
You probably have an image in mind when you think about a gamer girl. Think outside the box! Gamer girls are often just seen as girls who sit in their chairs playing girly games, but that’s not the case. Gamer girls are awesome and should be seen as such!
If you’re a gamer girl, you’re invested in the conversations about games, and you know what you’re talking about. Gamer girls know all about coding and will do anything it takes to win the game. You’ll know and appreciate all of the beloved old-school games and were greatly affected by Pokemon, just like the rest of us.
We could talk about these qualities forever, but we also want to note some things about gamer girl style. From oversized hoodies to sexy lingerie, we love the e-girl-esque style qualities that gamer girls usually have.
Gamer Girl Style
At Moeflavor, we love sharing about any style, but we especially love gamer girl style. This style can differ from person to person. It often contains a mix of e-girl, punk, and grunge. If you’re thinking baggy t-shirts and hoodies splashed with your favorite characters, then you’re thinking right.
Gamer girl style is similar to e-girl style, but we think it’s a little more comfy and attainable for every day and for, well, gaming. Gamer girls can be seen sporting oversized tops with colorful pants, beanies, and a choker to top it off.
Here’s a list of what we think makes a gamer girl’s outfit:
- Oversized graphic t-shirt or hoodie
- Plaid skirts or pants
- Colorful bottoms
- Beanies
- Chokers
- Chunky platform sneakers
- Studded belts
- Chains
- Fishnet tights
And that’s only what a gamer girl wears when she’s not sporting some edgy lingerie, but we’ll get there.

Our lingerie and clothing styles are designed for those who are as obsessed with anything waifu-inspired as we are. You’re definitely going to find something you love and won’t want to take off, but we’ve got a couple of pieces in mind to start you off.
Cyber Black Bunny Set
As if the name didn’t say it all, this set has just the right amount of spice and edge with its shiny latex and strappy bra and thong. Our Cyber Bunny Set comes complete with a bra, underwear, wrist cuffs, skirt, shoulder top, and bunny ears. This set will make you feel like taking on the metaverse.
Sheer Succubus Bodysuit
This is a throw-on-without-thinking kind of piece. Because it’s a bodysuit, you won’t have to worry about keeping up with multiple pieces. We also think this is a great option for bringing out a killer mindset, both in the gaming world and out.
