All the biggest streamers in the world from NICKMERCS to TimTheTatMan are all straight dudes. They make great content, sure. They’re good at what they do, they’re definitely entertaining, and it’s clear why they’re incredibly popular. But there’s still a group out there rarely seen in the upper echelons of Twitch, and that’s its LGBTQ+ streamers.
The media gives these larger streamers an even wider audience when they show up in scandals, such as Dr DisRespect and his recent ban, which ended up on media giant ESPN’s site. Why not take a moment to shine a light on a different Twitch community? A community with little to no scandals and streamers committed to making positive change in the world. It’s time to sit down and watch some LGBTQ+ streamers, support them, and help them grow.
Updated January 14th, 2021 by Christopher Fain: Twitch is a great place to connect with gamers, musicians, and more. It’s also a place where members of the LGBTQIA+ congregate and discuss their favorite things. With the politically-charged mess that runs rampant in the world these days, it’s nice to settle down on Twitch. It’s a great way to support the community, especially its members of color, even if going out and marching isn’t an option.
The LGBTQIA+ tag isn’t always the best place to start when looking for someone new to follow. It can be very overwhelming to find the content many seek out, especially if they’re new to Twitch.
