Illustrator, concept, and comic artist from Brazil Camila Torrano, a fan of video games like Resident Evil and Silent Hill, made this funny “Gamer Certificate” comic regarding the ridiculous lines of questioning and accusations of being “fake” that girl gamers often face. There is also a Portuguese version of the comic here and here’s what she had to say:
“Unfortunately, even in these days, girls are still subject to mocking and disbelief when they admit to liking Videogames. When a girl says she likes a game in particular, lots of guys make fun of her, saying her passion is not big enough and question the depth of her knowledge, her playing skills. And hardly a man goes through the same “questioning”, after all just for being born a male he surely knows his games.”
