Woman sparks fierce debate after naming the LEAST attractive hobby for men: 'It's weird that so many dudes don't understand this'
A female right-wing commentator sparked an outcry from her audience after admitting she finds a certain hobby popular among many men to be repulsive.
Liz Wheeler, 35, claimed to speak for women as a whole when she declared of the pastime in a tweet: 'Beyond red flag. Like dealbreaker zone. It's weird that so many dudes don't get this.'
She further shared a bar-graph meme - though the data represented was not based on any actual study - that displayed the hobby as the worst-ranked of 'least attractive hobbies for men according to women,' with less disliked options including collecting figurines, magic tricks, online trolling, and even gambling.
But, even after acknowledging that the graph was a 'joke' - and insisting she thought it was just a 'meme' - Liz stuck to her guns on her opinion that the interest was a turn-off for women, and that everyone who thought otherwise was 'totally wrong.'

The hobby in question: playing video games.
'And obviously we're not talking about Pac-Man or Tetris or an arcade game once in a while,' Liz added in a subsequent tweet, seemingly instead referring to the many more immersive and time-consuming video games that are notorious for eating up hours of one's day.
The backlash was swift, given an estimated 60 per cent of Americans indulge in gaming regularly, according to data collected by Statista.
'That's fine. We'd rather play video games than deal with modern women,' one man hit back.
'But men don't really care about your list… lol,' wrote a second.
'It's weird that so many chicks don't get that men don't care what you think. Women whine about being single, but all they do is complain about how perfect a man must be,' a third chimed in.
'The thing is though, most men shouldn't have to define there hobbies based on what women find attractive. There are tons of things women are obsessed with that men likely find unattractive (Taylor Swift and Astrology come to mind).
'Men often just move beyond those and accept that people can like what they like,' a fourth contended.

Countless men responded to Liz's original tweet, defending their love of video games as an inoffensive hobby, with at least one man claiming he'd choose gaming over 'modern women'
In a follow-up livestream addressing the backlash to the original tweet, Liz stood her ground - though never produced hard data to back up her 'observation' that men playing video games was a reviled by women as she claimed.
'First of all, the reason that this meme is funny, and the reason that it hit home, is partially because it's true,' Liz argued.
'It is by the way the most epic ratio that I have ever faced,' she further admitted, referencing the low amount of 'likes' her original tweet received in contrast to the responses pushing back.
Still, she argued, the volatility of the responses didn't negate her original point: that women find gaming unattractive.
'This was never intended as a personal insult. Video games, even if you like them, shouldn't be your identity,' she added.
'If you feel that I have somehow shanked your identity - which I haven't - that's on you, because part of your identity is with video games,' she went on.
'An observation of human nature, a cultural observation, that women just don't like when men play video games - we just don't find it attractive - that's just an objective observation,' Liz summarized of her subjective opinion.
'It's not even me saying it's how women should be. It wasn't even a comment at the time on whether men should or should not play video games.
'It was just an observation that, actually, most women feel like this, and most men don't understand why women feel like this.'

However, many women also spoke for themselves in the replies to the tweet, claiming they take no issue with their male partners' gaming - and sometimes even join in
However, the multiple women who spoke for themselves in replying to the original tweet complicated Liz's narrative.
'I love playing games. Waiting for the new Space Marines. Fired up COD Cold War Zombies the other day for nostalgia. Nothing wrong with games — or any hobby in healthy doses — especially when you can do four player family co-op,' one woman wrote.
'Nah, video games are cool. Men have a lot of crap on their plates, and if a guy takes care of business in every other arena, why the hell shouldn't he play video games?' a second agreed.
As a third woman pleaded: 'Gamers, please ignore her. I personally would rather him be in the privacy of his own home doing whatever he needs to decompress from a hard day at work than be out at a bar getting drunk any day of the week. And if that includes gaming, so be it.'
