Why do all of you gamers in your mid-to-late 20s feel the need to advertise that you're married...

... and have kids, etc? I don't mind if you're 25 years old and a streamer, or if you're 27 years old and want to ramble about the immaturity level of the average player. But these threads are always prefaced with "I'm a dad," or "I have children of my own."

Why even advertise the fact that you're married? Is it because you want to have the cute title of "I'm a dad but still a gamer and can still have my fun?"

By the way, I am also in my mid twenties but don't plan on getting married for another 10 years. I want to enjoy the last few years of my youth. I have the rest of my life to be "old."

They might see it as very important to them or a core part of their identity? I am in my 20s and neither married nor a parent, but I can understand someone feeling they are milestones and something to be proud of. edit: If it's prefacing threads complaining about maturity, I'd just guess they felt those achievements helped them grow. I don't know lol.

Probably the same reason you announced that you aren't married; you just felt like it.

And you know that how? It was to let them know that I'm in the same age group as them and not some bitter, angsty teenager.

So, you established your lack of children and your age in order to demonstrate the demographic you come from, then.

Seems like much the same reason they establish their parenthood and marriage, to me.

many gamers are desperate to get people to believe they are not virgins.
