From cozy simulation games to high-stakes action titles, female Twitch streamers are dominating every corner of the platform—and redefining what it means to be a gamer in the process. Today, we’re spotlighting 20 of the most popular female gamers making waves on Twitch, as well as on other social media platforms and mainstream media! 

Whether you're looking for your next favourite creator or curious about what it's like being a woman creating engaging content in the streaming world, you’ll find inspiration, insight, and entertainment from these top female Twitch streamers. Plus, we’ve sat down with @bobajenny for an exclusive Q&A about her journey, her community, and the future of women in gaming!

An Interview With Jenny (@bobajenny)

What got you started as a streamer, and what do you enjoy most about it?

I started streaming on Twitch in 2020, since I was unable to work during the Covid-19 lockdowns. From there I was lucky enough to create a very positive-centered community. What I enjoy about streaming the most is to hear stories and engage with like-minded people all over the world.

As a woman in a male-dominated space, what are some of the biggest challenges you've faced, and how have you navigated them?

I have gotten a lot of support from my male associates from Twitch, sometimes the amount of effort you put in can be minimized due to the fact that I am a woman, there is still a stigma around that but it's gotten a lot better over the years. The majority of the time, everyone is super supportive of each other, that's why I love Twitch so much!  

In your experience, do you think the online streaming community has become more inclusive for women in recent years? Is there anything you'd like to see change?

Yes, Twitch has done a lot for women on the platform, there is even a Twitch Women's Guild group as well. The women on Twitch (even myself) still receive misogynistic comments here and there, but over time, there has been less of that. There is definitely more enforcement on hateful comments, Twitch has been monitoring it quite well.

Are there any women on Twitch who inspire or motivate you? What is it about their content or approach that you admire?

There are so many wonderful female gamers on the platform, I really admire women who can create content that is for everyone, especially QTCinderella. She was able to create an award show, as well as many engaging events that can draw people of all genders and ages, and honestly just being entertained during those streams! Twitch has gotten bigger and it's now more than gaming, so it's really nice to see different ideas from different content creators!
