Is twitch just another form of prostitution?

Maybe something is wrong with me, but I've never watched a game stream ever. I don't just get it. I can understand watching movies, or a video where something is being talked about. But how does it make any sense that people sit and watch other people play games? I used to think that the main draw of gaming was that you play them yourself.

Baffling.

Yeah indeed, what's next?  Watching people playing football/Rugby or even running? Maybe even worse let people pay to watch it....People can't be that stupid right?

I know you are trying to be smart with that post of yours, but its rather silly you trying to make that kinda connection. 

Not everyone can run, play basketball or play football competitively. In the very same way not everyone can play street fighter at the level required to play it competitively. I watch soccer because  I am supporting a team.  I watch basketball cause I'm supporting a team then later in the day I go to my local court and play with my friends. I watch evo cause I want to see the best of the best play fighting games then later I jump in and game with my friends. I would even watch some game videos because I'm trying to see where to find that item. 

That's very different from sitting down and watching someone else play an entire game or chunks of it as your primary way if experiencing that game. If you can't see the difference then I'm sorry and I guess you fall under those people I don't quite understand.
