Recently, one popular Twitch streamer, QTCinderella, issued a challenge to others in her male-dominated field: name 100 women. Via a statistical analysis performed by another content creator, Xenoxygene, here is how that turned out.
Xenoxygene analyzed the performances of nine content creators who participated in the challenge. They listed 900 women, though with a fair amount of overlap, meaning that the real total came out to 550. On average, it took streamers 27 minutes and 28 seconds to extract 100 women’s names from their brains. Among them, the single most popular was Hillary Clinton, who everybody named. Michelle Obama, Sydney Sweeney, Taylor Swift, and Pokimane also fared well. In terms of categories, most women named were celebrities (30 percent), musicians (18 percent), streamers (13.3 percent), politicians (6.9 percent), YouTubers (6 percent), writers (4 percent), historical figures (3.6 percent), adult entertainment stars (3.5 percent), TV personalities (3.3 percent), or athletes (3.3 percent).
