As for content creators , we find data quite similar to the previous ones. According to the latest published study from July 2022 (that I have located) that collects this data by gender, almost 80% of the creators were men and 20% were women .
In our article about the 20 Twitch streamers in the world we can see how there is only one woman, Imane Anys ( Pokimane ).

I guess I'm not the only one who, every time she logs on to Twitch, finds herself facing two very different sides. On the one hand, the real protagonists of the platform, the men, who seem to be at home (and they are, in fact). Chatting with their audience, making music, art and, above all, playing video games of all kinds. They have also left their homes to do wrestling events, in which other streamers get into the ring to fight, and even ring the bells, via streaming, as is the case of Ibai Llanos.

While, on the other hand, we find women who, in most cases, are seen sucking microphones or in underwear dancing, playing sports, sunbathing, doing ASMR or, directly, making sexual content.
It's funny because from what I've been researching, Twitch claims to implement policies to avoid sexual content. The main rule is to avoid full or partial nudity, as well as the exposure of intimate areas of the body, including the use of transparent or excessively tight clothing that marks these areas. There are certain exceptions to these rules, such as in situations where a baby is being breastfed or in broadcasts from the beach, jacuzzi or pool , as long as the rules on the coverage of intimate areas are followed. Buuuut , it is the platform itself that has created the ' Pools, Hot Tubs and Beaches ' category. This section contains broadcasts where women predominate in beach, pool or even rooms with a jacuzzi -even if it is not used-. As can be expected in this context, the women in these streams are in swimsuits, bikinis or lighter clothing that cover the minimum allowed, doing sports, sunbathing, dancing, bathing, etc. Judge for yourself!
