Can someone accurately explain GameGate in a sentence?

I've been reading different articles about GamerGate, and I am starting to think it isn't a real problem.

Just a bunch of women complaining that they are being portrayed as weak and helpless in video games.

But there are plenty of games which don't portray women that way.

So I am led to believe that this isn't a problem and just a form of extreme attention whoring for ugly women who can't be cam-girls.

Q: Can someone accurately explain GameGate in a sentence?

A: GameGate is not a thing and neither is GamersGate, perhaps you mean GamerGate which can be explained in an additional sentence if you wish.

That's what they said a month ago, and a month before that. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Ah Thanks India.

A gamergate (pronounced /ˈɡæmərˌɡeɪt/) is a reproductively viable female worker ant that is able to reproduce with mature males when the colony is lacking a queen.
