P. 111-130
- Gamer/girl. Strategies for negotiating femininity in the gaming field of Twitch Italy Video game culture developed as a male territory, where female presence has always created strife. The present article offers a reconstruction in four phases of the conflicts surrounding female gamers in order to frame the current situation.

The research explores the negotiation strategies deployed by female streamers to assert their right to a full citizenship in the field, focusing on two dimensions: managing femininity and contrasting toxicity.
