Where does the premise, that gamers don't do well at life, come from? Is it statistically evident? Hard to look at a bunch of subjective poll answers before establishing if the premise of the questions has any grounding in reality.

Interesting. I don't think any trans woman holds that belief though. I think that's something opponents to trans identities repeat as if it were fact to score points. But it's actually a very progressive gender deconstructive
