Probably means they didn't take into account the fact that boys were just blasting people in online games whereas girls drowned themselves in social media? I reckon it's nothing to do with actual gender and more about what those genders spend their time doing online.

As a girl who spent time in MMOs before social media was even a thing...

it was all the casual misogyny. Girls can't go to (online) games for a release, it's misogyny everywhere.
