It existed before they co opted the phrase as a girl that would join a male dominated hobby for attention not in a purely sexual way (like the left ONLY thinks of) but because they're one of the few women there so have to compete less for attention so can have more fun.
Being an attention seeker ain't bad, it's just the actions you take to GET that attention that can be the issue.
the difference is an actual interest in the hobby as opposed to it only being about attention.
As an example, there's a youtuber, gab smolders, slightly lefty on political topics, has a lot of girly games in her selection (nancy drew, stardew valley, etc), but she actually enjoys the games, as opposed to acting like it's all about getting attention on her.
her format's a bit long-form for my tastes, but she's fun to watch sometimes, as opposed to say the stereotypical twitch thot who's trying to figure out which orifice to shove the controller in to get the most bits...
