Twitch star Pokimane is hitting back at critics who are trolling her for “pushing 35” and demanding to know when she plans on having children.
Imane ‘Pokimane‘ Anys is one of the most popular streamers on Twitch. Over the course of her ten-year career as an entertainer, she’s racked up over 9 million followers on the platform and has been instrumental in shaping the online broadcasting space.
Being famous is no cake-walk, though, as she’s had to repeatedly fend off comments and assumptions from critical viewers — the most recent of which revolve around her age.
In a November 2025 stream, Anys called out viewers who constantly bring up how old she is, especially in relation to potentially starting a family.
Pokimane slams trolls obsessed with her age
Anys is currently 29 years old, and will turn 30 in May 2026. Because of this, some trolls have filtered into her Twitch chat to make fun of her age and demand to know when she will start having children.
“You know, people who come in and go, ‘Why don’t you have kids yet?’ Stuff like that? Someone said I’m ‘pushing 35.’ That’s six years away!” she remarked.
“I find it really odd, because I don’t think there’s an issue with not even wanting kids. But I actually want kids.”
The streamer went on to joke that these trolls are “uterus-watching her,” comparing it to the term “pocket-watching” — when people jealously take note of someone’s monetary status via their possessions or outward appearance.
“Why do you care if there’s a baby in my uterus? Shouldn’t you go get a partner and worry about their uterus?”
Pokimane is far from the only female streamer to get hit with such insults. In 2024, popular content creator Valkyrae shut down a similar remark after a user on X said she was “expired” after turning 32.
