gaming Does playing video games make one a loser?

If you're enjoying yourself, that sounds like a win to me.

Maybe those people feel pressured to behave and act a certain way, and thus don't play video games despite wanting to. If that's the case, they're the real losers.

Since the elementary school there always were at least a couple of dudes in my class who enjoy games as much as I do. So, I think you just met wrong people, I bet guys who harassed you had a range of interest ending in gym, cars and girls. I mean if you really enjoy gaming, you will find your people sooner or later, I know there's a guy on YT who found really pretty girlfriend because he was reviewing Skyrim mods

Of course not, no more than playing any sport or non-video game makes you a loser. Generalizations like that are never correct anyway, there's always exceptions. But the vast majority of people I know who play video games aren't losers.

Iv been called a loser in the past because I enjoy video games

Before 2010, I think so. Then AGDQ happened, and now gaming is completely okay and actually beneficial!

People that play video games professionally can get a lot of money. People that just play video games keeps the industry going. Anyone else that enjoys video games (like me) are technical nerds. I am a nerd, not a loser.

Why would it?
