It's a serious point.
Considering that people can be totally douches to female gamers, they will tend to keep their anonymity among people who behave similar to the kind of people who act like that. Even if they wouldn't act like that.
You don't see many people casually bring up their gay to the guy in the trucker hat and confederate flag jacket for example. Chances are that dude is just another guy and not homophobic at all, still, not really worth the risk.
Ask most women who play games and they can probably tell you more then one horror story about how they lost a gaming buddy after revealing their gender.
