It's not simply women as i've seen some men doing this as well. Twitch has become a place that I quite honestly don't like to frequent anymore because of the constant "tipping" and shout out messages. They were alright at first before they became mainstream, but constantly sitting through DING DONG DINGALING DINGY "$50 obtained - Hey Stephen, what did you think of so-and-so?" has become very tired and is ruining the overall experience.
It's quite clear that many people on Twitch are no longer streaming simply for fun, but for primarily monetary reasons, which is why both women and men are dressing or acting provoactively on stream. Ever wondered why Angry Joe doesn't put out nearly as many videos (Reviews) these days? One night of streaming can net him $500+ dollars for doing zero editioral work, which makes his life easier hence no need to do a large burden of work.
Now don't get me wrong, i'm not attempting to put people down for trying to earn money. Kudos to those people, and if I was in that situation I probably would do the same thing. Afterall I play a ton of games and why not make a few bucks doing it? However, the constant tip messages with over the top sounds and shout outs has ruined the site (at least for me). That type of stuff would be better served for the end of a stream after the primary content is over.
