A lot of it is misogyny, especially in the case of so called titty streamers that are really just women wearing normal clothes (leggings, tops with midriff) and then being hypersexualised.
However, I also think some of it's because in a lot of cases these people are shit at the games and not very entertaining. At the start of it I remember certain 'titty' youtubers were using fake gameplay. Their content is more based on sexual parasocial relationships. It doesn't really belong in the same space as a bunch of other entertainers.
Twitch is a cam site. They can't be mad they have cam girls
Or that cam girls score higher in the scale of what gamers brains want to see.
