XTINA GG: Pixel Warrior, Gender Pioneer—Meet the Nonbinary Dynamo Reshaping Gaming Culture
Episode description
XTINA GG saw a Craigslist ad one day about streaming for a [now defunct] startup, and that's how their streaming career started. At Polygon, the leading platform for video games and entertainment content, XTINA runs point on the company's social media platforms and appears regularly on Polygon's Twitch streams and longer form YouTube videos.
You may notice that XTINA is referred to as "they." XTINA goes by she/they pronouns, which may sound confusing, but hear in our conversation how they experienced genitalia dysmorphia as an adolescent and eventually decided on their nonbinary identity.
