I wish this idea caught on to a larger portion of society. There's a dating site that has questions you can answer and see what a potential match has answered, one of which was "are computer games childish?"
An unfortunately large portion of women (ages 30-45) who answered that answer "yes" :(
(I'm not looking for men so I don't know how they respond, I wasn't trying to be sexist lol)
think about the parents of 30-45 year olds and how they might have raised their sons vs their daughters, and also the clear pandering to teenage boys in videogames 20 or so years ago. there's your answer.
thankfully both are changing with time. there are reactionaries who want to stop this change on both sides, but they will fail just like they failed before.
