>>2550066blogposting but as a black woman, representation is nice but at the end of the day it never mattered too much to me. (For ex. I related more to Princess Daisy as a young tomboy than I did any black character on TV.)
That being said, i've never been the kind of person that HAS to see someone that shares the same physical traits as me to know I can do something. But I think that's rare in human beings to not need that kind of external validation.
Most people are visual creatures like that and need to see it, which is why we have this whole dumb topic that's been lasting for years.
No. 2550095
>>2550083I feel you,
nonnie. I'd rather see different kinds of women than the forced diversity we've been getting in the last decade. A tomboy princess would be more awesome. Also, I love princess Daisy's colors. It's interesting because I've grown up in the cosplay scene for the last 20 years now and black women cosplaying has never been an issue, but recently more people are focused hard on it. I just want better written women characters in general.

>>2550095fr its so weird. I cosplayed as L and another black friend of mines cosplayed as Envy from FMA back then and no one gave a shit that we were
POC or w/e, we all just cared about the source material. I never had that insecurity that I couldn't cosplay as my fave character because we didn't share the same race/gender like I see now in the cosplay community.
This weird hyperfocus on race etc. has actually divided us a lot more imo than unite us.

>>2550651Responding to say this. I view race bending for "representation" the same as when dumb "fans" horribly mischaracterize because "it's my headcanon". If you truly love a character, you wouldn't change them in a way that disrupts the fundamentals of what and "who" that character is meant to be, even down to the design essentials of what makes that character physically themselves. If you "need" to redraw a character as a different race than what they are, or if you "need" to rewrite them in a way that's objectively stupid compared to what the source material is actually telling you just so you can "digest" and like the character, you're not a real fan. You're just in the fandom to fuck around. It is for that train of logic that I also personally believe that 99% of coomer artists are not real fans of the movies, shows, books, comics, and games they make porn of. When 90+% of them cannot even get the physique of the character accurate to what they're meant to appear as, I'm going to have a difficult time believing that they truly have respect for the media itself.

These losers fly into a rage whenever they see a woman who reminds them of their shitty relationship with their hentai addicted moid who makes them feel like they’re not good enough for having huge anime girl tits and they try to frame this insecurity and intrasexual competition as some kind of retard version of feminism.

And if all big titted women are pickmes who enjoy the attention anyway, like you claim, then how does it affect you in any way and why do you want to ‘save them’?

>>2553421>m-muh representation?Ironic of you to call me underage when you’re bitching about representation as if women with big tits can’t just check any anime or manga ever for representation. I don’t know if you’ve ever read josei or adult manga for women, but the femc is almost ALWAYS oversexualized with gigantic tits wearing sexy clothing. The average cup size in Korea (in the case of the mentioned manga) is an A or B cup as far as I’m concerned. If anything there’s the opposite issue, where the readers are so insecure about their body they must imagine it as an idealized pornified version of themselves.
Anyway, I never once shamed women with big boobs unlike the anons here who have said degrading terms for women with small boobs like a scrote. I made fun of fatties, who cares? Being fat is a gender neutral trait and a skill issue. Also the woman in the original screenshot you defended is a pickme who uses slurs such as cunt for female characters. This typology of yumejos are always massive pickmes so I’m not surprised

>>2553502I personally think the way Haesoo is drawn is beautiful, as well as Taeha. I didn't sexualize her, because I have no interest in doing so. They are both gives exaggerated characteristics (large boobs for Haesoo, massive shoulders for Taeha, both have very young looking and beautiful faces) so it's not like some fat ugly bastard stuff with a hideous shittily drawn male character and a pornified female. Taeha is meant to be beautiful and idealized looking too. Some coomers probably will hypersexualize Haesoo but hey, coomers sexualize everything, so who really gives a shit.
It's an 18+ manhwa with adult themes, it's not meant to be read by tweens. It would be a problem imo if Haesoo was presented as some brainless bimbo pickme with no depth, but she's actually given a lot of depth and isn't made out to be a one dimensional slut at all. People who are seeing her as a smut character are just projecting onto her imo.

Even Ib is more fun as a game because at least in there you can fuck up in different ways to get more than one ending. Story-based games need to get used to having more than one ending and way to play the game. MW doesn't do anything with itself other than basically say "look at what a piece of shit Jimmy is".

>>2553389You might get booed and heckled for your opinion, but I agree. The way Haesoo is drawn feels a little off to me too. No other woman in the entire manhwa has her proportions. I have noticed that some korean shojosei manhwa tend to give the FL comically huge boobs as a visual marker of how she is supposed to be the superior woman. Meanwhile, the male characters like Taeha and Mincheol all have similar, balanced proportions.
I remember reading another manhwa "Your Majesty Please Spare Me", where the FL had this ridiculously huge monoboob. It looked especially wild next to all the other female characters, who were drawn normally. It is not even just about the art though. What really kills the experience for me is how these stories treat every single woman who is not the FL.
Almost without fail every other female character is written as some jealous, bitter bitch who exists just to make the FL look good. Haesoo's coworker was actually sweet to her at first, and then out of nowhere she flips and turns into a bitch. Then there is that other retard who sleeps with Haesoo’s ex-husband. The ex is actual trash so I can overlook this instance. Even in the flashbacks, every single woman is horrible to Haesoo just because Mincheol has a crush on her.
It is hard to take any of this seriously when the entire cast is just there to prop up the main girl. Feels less like a story and more like straight-up wish fulfillment.

No. 2553863
>>2553743Tbh her and her boytoy's looks activate my neurons so it's more like a "hot couple I'm rooting for" aspect for me. Also I actually like the poverty orphan ex husband and his rich younger gf, they make me laugh at how ill suited they are for one another but he has no option but to stay with her and change himself if he wants somewhere to stay. After being used to bossing the FL around, he has no power in this new situation and I want to see where it goes. I also thought it was so sweet that his younger gf
hugged him when he confessed he was an orphan who lived in poverty and was scared she'd reject him for not being manly enough or something. And I like how sorta-psycho the FL's boytoy is.I actually hard agree that the flower shop coworker girl was written weirdly, even for a fan like me I was like "uhh okay. I guess if it was going to be anyone to create conflict within the story the only option was her because the supporting cast are so limited because the FL doesn't go out." Kek. So I just rolled with it. I guess if the Coworker Character was a male he might be aggressive towards the FL instead and be like "you should respect your husband!!" because he'd be automatically intimidated by a hawtie like the FL's love interest, but with a Female Coworker she would have attempted to get on the LI's good side by "warning" him? Which has the double effect of "the supporting cast think he's hot so the audience can tell that he's hot" (tropes that the comics industry does often with their opposite-sex casts e.g. "all the boys want her" "all the girls want him") and fulfils the "The LI only has eyes for the FL when he inevitably rejects the side character" trope. So if my assumptions are correct I can see it from a "comic writer" point of view even if it doesn't make total sense as a reader.

because for some reason he's not hafu anymore? I don't get this plot point but whatever aside from the hideous mullet. It's especially true with how he looks in the MGS3 remake trailers where he's in his late 20s or early 30s. Obviously Snake looks less realistic in MGS2 because of the limitations of the PS2 and he looks better as Pliskin, his bandana gives him a very unflattering resting bitch face. Snake as a young adult looks like this so we'll never know his true potential.

>>2554257I’m most familiar with JP fandoms and troonery is basically nonexistent in fandom outside of a small handful of canon trans characters, and even then JP fans tend to treat those as crossdressers lol. The most you usually see is furanari or cuntboy, or genderless characters since JP doesn’t need to use he/she like English does.
The female side of JP fandom tends to be very strict about fanworks that contradict the canon series, ie NSFW, non-canon shipping fanart, AUs, etc, and a lot of JP fans will avoid tagging/using searchable names for that kind of fancontent the first place, or hide it on poipiku/other private sites. A lot of JP fans consider drawing fanart of characters with pride flags to be disrespectful to the original author as well since it’s not like the author has given approval of their characters supporting lgb or tq rights. JP fandom just doesn’t have the climate for troon HCs to take off.

I find it hard to believe anyone has a problem with seeing large-breasted women in anime or other media because they obviously exist in real life. The problem is they're almost always drawn in a sexualized way because men can't stop themselves. It doesn't have to do with having a small waist either, there are real life women with small waists and big boobs, just look at Marina. Plenty of women have thicker thighs, butt, and hips, and can tell when a female design is simply a woman with a bigger lower half and when the artist is sexualizing it. If there's a lot of emphasis on overflow or jiggling or drawing the body part in detail or making it just huge in relation to the rest of the body, you can tell that someone is getting off on it. Unfortunately male artists seem incapable of just depicting a normal woman with big boobs without also making her breast boobily everywhere. I would hope female artists can at least have more variety but nowadays you can't be sure anymore.
>>2554341D cup just means you have a 4 inch difference between bust and underbust measurement, but the shape of the boobs really affects how 'big' they look. For most women, D-cup or even DD isn't some comically large size like men think. A lot of women also wear the wrong size or use an outdated bra sizing method. That being said I don't know if double Ds on a small frame will appear "pretty small".

>>2554782A thorn in MW's fanbase is how immature they are. They went through that meme where you censor Jimmy's name because he's such a piece of shit and everyone hates him, but that's so retarded. Even as a meme, it's retarded because it demonstrates the implied inability for fans to properly discuss Jimmy because he's the antagonist. This gets amusing when you consider that despite Jimmy being a narcissistic, sociopathic, misogynistic, cannibalistic rapist, he still gets mogged by any other game antagonist if we're talking about evil. William Afton from FNaF is a child murderer who killed at LEAST six children. William is objectively more evil than Jimmy, yet nobody censors William's name because despite William being the bad guy, Fnafags get more serious when they try to talk about the characters and wtf is going on in the plot.

>>2554888Anon, what? You know what? I disagree you. MWfags censoring Jimmy's name arguably contradicts the narrative the game was trying to make about how to respond to sexual assault cases. If you can't mature to discuss sexual assault, the drastic effects it has, the nature around it, and what kind of people commit it, that's pretty much being like Curly because we know him to be a fence-sitter who would rather "pacify" the subject instead of actually confronting it just to make "everyone comfortable". The devs outright say that Curly was in the wrong for not communicating with Anya enough. For not doing something about the situation enough. For not fighting Jimmy's influence enough. The game acts as a criticism on rape culture, including the aspect where people would rather just avoid confronting it even in conversation. When you avoid talking about Jimmy, and avoid talking about the sexual assault when it's time to discuss MW, you are (in a sense) being a coward just like how Curly was. And as for your point, what kind of point even is that? Can't you say the same about murder in that case? And why are we blaming media for faggots chimping out IRL? Come on, anon.

>you're being a coward!! This game is a criticism on rape culture (ah yes I suppose that's also why the devs are ok with rapeporn of anya the rape victim)Are you talking about the devs telling antis to calm down and not send people death threats over dumbass shit like Jimanya? How is telling people to not send death threats the same with fetishizing rape? Jfc, grow up.
>?? You seem to on par with the same reading comprehension and intellect with the moutheashing fags you are seething aboutYou want to insult my intellect and reading comprehension? When you're the butthurt fag who couldn't even argue how talking about murder is drastically different than talking about rape, blames video games like a boomer, and thinks telling people not to alog is the same as being a rape fetishist? You are a retard, you don't understand the game you're defending, and no amount of "zomg you're immature just like them" is going to magically trick me into believing that you're some high IQ intellect on video games and "muh comprehension" when you come across as a fag who needs TV Tropes to walk you through anything you find. Nice job avoiding the point of what I'm saying by the way, that censoring Jimmy's name goes against the narrative the game is trying to tell the audience. Amazing debating skills coming from a person who so knows wtf they're on about.
>also have you just considered that majority of that fanbase is underaged? Thus avoids wording out uncomfortable topics?Then guess what? Maybe they shouldn't be playing the game if the topic is too serious for their age? Fandoms shouldn't cater to children if the source material isn't designed for children as the audience but for a person who swears that
I lack intellect, it's strange that I have to be the one to explain this. And by the way, you specifically said
>the latter can be encouraged by said media if it depicts it as something that has no consequences.This is how I know you most definitely never even played the game despite defending the fanbase so hard, because the direct consequence of Jimmy assaulting Anya was Anya becoming pregnant, realizing that he wouldn't escape responsibility since they're in the middle of space on a mission that will take at least nine months, with living evidence of what he did to her–followed by trying to crash the ship, which then led to everyone's suffering and death. So Mouthwashing does depict Jimmy's actions being followed by the consequence of his inability to be a responsible human being. So tell me why you're acting like it's so hard to discuss MW's sexual assault if the game makes it very clear that what Jimmy did was not just disgusting, but the whole reason for why the game's plot takes place? You need to simply admit that you are too immature to talk about characters in a productive way, too immature or even just stupid to figure out what the story is trying to tell its audience, too immature and
definitely retarded to confront discussions about sexual assault if you have to blame
video games for why scrotes do it in the real world, utter lacking in nuance for thinking the devs are okay with rape porn for just disagreeing at antis sending death threats at anything that makes them uncomfortable, and bluntly the wrong type of "fan" to be in any fandom if you think watering down discussions just so all lurking children will be more comfortable in a space that isn't meant for their entertainment is going to do wonders for the audience the media is actually meant for.
In short, you are exactly the kind of imbecile I was talking about when I decided to shit on MW's fandom. The kind of "fan" who likely never even watched a gameplay and has the gall to talk about "muh media literacy" at anyone who makes them mildly upset about it.(infighting) No. 2555060

>>2560459>They often have pedo dog whistles like "anti-c" in their bio too which is concerning to me, because it implies there's so many open pedos in their spacesIn the Shayna thread (of all places) this topic was briefly touched on a few years back. The dog whistle is "I do this to cope with trauma" (in reference to pro-ship media involving rape/pedo shit/incest). She resposted an underage incest kink twitter account named bunniecunt or something, and another
nonnie pointed out that the account and all their mutual were minors larping this disgusting shit. They were all girls regularly interacting with adult moids larping as corpsehusband, and most of those interactions were oriented around Hannibal/normie husbandofagging/You/all the usual suspects when it comes to fandoms who are insanely perverse but use pro-ship to defend it by crying "I consume this and larp it as a coping mechanism for things that happened to me" from the girls, and the groomer moids sperging "this freak is bothering kids about their fandoms um pedo much?"

Otherwise why would you have sex? Kek.
Like, idk, what you want to hear? I honestly always write in my personal fanfics and put in my fantasies stuff like the characters saying things such as how they feel (depending on the context) how much they like my character, describing sensations that are new to them (say, the character your character is fucking is an anime guy that has never touched someone in his life, everything will be new to him. Or the character is a guy that has never touched a woman like (you) and is surprised by how her body feels) or they say stuff they want the other to do like "Hey don't fucking Jack Hammer me" or "Not so fast buck-o".

They literally start shrieking and pulling their hair out if you are into vers or switching. It is so annoying how they claim kweerio ships are superior to straight stuff, but then they are just weirdly obsessed with making one person the "man" in the relationship.
This shit is getting more and more prominent in both yaoi and yuri fanbases. If it is yaoi, then the bottom is likely a cuntboy. If it is yuri, then the top somehow has a dick. And the way they express their horniness for top and bottom characters is just equally bizarre. If it is someone they have collectively decided is the bottom, then that character becomes the "wife" everyone wants to impregnate. If it is the designated top, then they want that character to fuck them senseless. Why does this even matter if both characters are of the same sex.

I can't grasp why it is a very specific kind of person who does it, or why there's so many of them, because in my mind toddler shows shouldn't have a wide range that spans to 30+ year olds bringing up their CV in debates about them.

No. 2564144
>>2563899Two motivations for this that I've seen (beyond basic bad taste/immaturity and being a creep), is there's a bit of a fascination towards looking back on kids content and then 'analysing' (read: re-framing) them from a more adult or 'mature' perspective– you used to see this a lot more as edgy analyses/theories designed to make a piece of media more deep or whoa (eg 'coma theories', where the show is ackshually taking place in the mind of a sickly/dying child, or 'x piece of media is totally taking place on post-apocalyptic Earth', and other 'x is really depicting y' meta etc), but now that a large crop of fandom active adults have been through tertiary education, they instead tend to force media to fit their academic wheelhouse rather than creepypasta-tier shit. I think the simpler the media, the easier it is to be retarded about it as an adult, because, if you're so inclined, you can fixate on, over think, and fill in the gaps far more freely than with anything more complicated or with the actual subject matter you want to talk about.
I also think part of the appeal
is that you're one of few adults in a sea of children enjoying the show– not for the usual creep reasons either, but because you'll have little to no competition in being a big name fan or having the most well-regarded and engaged with meta etc. Even if you're spouting absolute nonsense, a lot of kids will just be happy to see something they like being taken seriously, and will give such an adult a lot of positive engagement with their posts. Adult and teenage fans into more mature media/media for their age demographic are generally more experienced and confident in what they like, and so won't just fawn over any old post and may even react and interact negatively to it. People into little kid's shows, in my experience, tend to either be literal autists (good for them), or people who cannot handle being 'confronted' or 'challenged' by simple fiction, they absolutely can't handle actual people doing the same.
(of course there are also just freaks out there that get off on corrupting innocent things or things for innocent audiences)

>>2563941>Gumball>Regular ShowAyrt I would go as far as to say that both of these examples, despite being kids cartoons, are of more substance and therefore more worthy of autistic over-analyzing than Sofia the First kek and yet you will never see people do this because that type of person aren't drawn to them (quite possibly for that reason)
>>2564137Ayrt but even in the case of adults who grew up watching Sofia the First or shows like that it still doesn't make that much sense to intellectualise it. It's not even like adults who are super into lego or Thomas the tank engine for nostalgia and just let it be what it is.
>>2564144>people who cannot handle being 'confronted' or 'challenged' by simple fictionI believe this personality trait shared by people who love toddler shows is the exact reason why they're also almost always echo chamber tranny faggots who sperg out when they're disagreed with. I will never forget the days when mild as milk takes on The Loud House were enough to send a lot of people into a chimpout so severe that it required days of clucking to eachother reaffirming that all their opinions are true and correct as therapy to get over the mere idea of an opposing opinion.

dandadan discourse is appearing on the tl again and i’m so tired of this shitty shounenslop series and its fans trying to convince people that it’s not fan service at all. how do even so-called “woke” girls and women defend this garbage and are fans of it?
>nnooo trust me bro female characters going through sexual situations drawn in suggestive angles explicitly is for the plot, it’s supposed to be shown in a negative light!!!!!
keklmao, not to mention momo is underage. not to mention the author is a moid. not to mention japan has always had a huge culture of sexualization of girls in both anime/manga and real life. not to mention 80% of moid anime fans are degenerate coomers who masturbate to hentai that looks exactly like this.
fans will try to say that dandadan is targeted for school boys aged 12-18, like that ever stopped adult moids from consuming it as well.
there are ways to effectively portray sexual abuse in a respectful and serious manner and dandadan is far from it. i trust it even less since the author is a moid, who probably gets off to drawing these. it’s so retarded seeing fans act like this is a good faith portrayal of a serious topic. i’ve seen coomers draw literal porn of this scene alone, it’s obvious that moids are supposed to get off to this scene but they can pretend that it’s a “sad” scene or some shit.
i haven’t read dandadan so i don’t know what other cringe sexual scenes there are that try to pass off as muh “serious and sad sexual assault scene that is totally not fan service for moids”, but i know the arc about that mother and her daughter, and how the mother sells her body to provide for them but her daughter is still kidnapped by yakuza and is never seen again, so she kills herself. yet another scene that i don’t trust moids writing about. wouldn’t be surprised at how many moids (including the author) got off to that whole story, about a woman being degraded sexually. the kidnapped daughter too, on 4chan /a/ i saw moids talking about how the daughter was definitely raped and killed by the gang members. yes, the place infested with lolipedos, so i can imagine they get off about joking what could’ve happened to the daughter.
but dandadan fans will swear that these cheap, corny, poorly written sexual plots are “deep” and totally serious

Fanfictions can be good, but definitely not the vast majority of them because most "writers" can't be bothered to properly digest the world and characters of the source material. Most people just write based on what they WANT the characters to be, instead of writing their stories in a way that could actually pass as the media creator's "what if" for the plot. 90% of characters written in fanfiction aren't written like how they are, but as clones that might as well be skinwalking what the fic writer is thinking about. If you ship yourself or an OC with a real person, that's dehumanizing and cringe regarding the person you're writing about. 'x reader' fanfics exist because teenage millenials and zoomers got too lazy to just make a reasonable OC. 'x reader' fics are a contradictive genre because it's really written as "character x author" since there's no way for the author to predict and write how the entire audience would act as individuals in any scenario. The only aspect of it that's "x reader" is merely when readers find the fic and may enjoy it themselves. Combined with almost nobody on Ao3 having an education in writing that's beyond a high school level and 'x reader' fics really being just the author shipping themselves with a character and shoving their kinks into the sex sequences, 'x reader' fics have to be the most objectively difficult to write if you're making it a challenge to not let it be bad. You have to be a literary genius to somehow write a 'character x reader' fanfiction GOOD.

>>2564633I really wanted to like the show/manga (read up to the current chapter) but yeah no these are obvious fanservice scenes that just make it worth dropping. I like the premise, I like Momo and Ken as protags and a couple, but the pantyshots and shit are so fucking annoying. Even when there's a character later in the manga who
was blackmailed into sending nudes to her gym teacher, who the group beat the shit out of it still feels exploitative and obvious (she has big oppai titties bc of COURSE).

>>2564633One interesting difference between male and female fans I have observed is that female fans have no problem with pretty and attractive female characters and protagonists. We just don't want them to be constantly sexualized. On the other hand, men will literally avoid series with pretty boy characters. Like Lies of P for instance, I have heard moids saying that they refuse to play this game because they don't like how the protag is a pretty twink.

No. 2567142
>>2566803Tbh I think it just comes down to the type of moid (and, conversely, female) fan. Some skitz out over same-sex characters being attractive (often equating 'attractive' with automatic sexualisation, too), others get pissy if they're not attractive enough (with wild standards as to what that even means). Even with your Lies of P example, my male gamer friends just happily played the game and only commented on the MC's appearance in reference to him looking similar to an actor (but 'if he were actually pretty' kek). I also know female gamers who will not touch a game if the female character options
aren't feminine and attractive enough, and will bitch when we play a certain game that there's only one such lady to pick (the other female characters being too masculine, ugly, or practically dressed), and other women who complain bitterly about attractive female characters existing (regardless of how they're dressed or treated). It's not so cut and dry, I guess I'm trying to say.
Also, sometimes I think anons here just need to stop inflicting psychic damage on themselves by giving any of their time to the most bottom-of-the-barrel and brainrotted moids around, who usually aren't even part of a fandom, let alone people who were ever going to buy or play whatever game is in question because all they're really dedicated to is being a reactionary sped with delusional standards (every 'omg she's so ugly, needs ten pounds of makeup and plastic surgery STAT' post about a female character) that enjoys poking a fandom to get attention, usually from a female playerbase (moids who comment on LADS who neither play it nor really give a shit about it beyond stirring up and harassing the women who do).

However, I gotta point out that the male characters

>>2569548AYRT they're actually all very normal women who are independent and happy being that way (some of them are into the girlboss nonsense and ascribe to Feminism Lite, where only the appealing/empowering platitudes exist), their preferred form of escapism just seems to
exclusively be to have a pretty/hot/fashionable/flirty/attractive female character to embody. I'm not even knocking those things, it's just a little disheartening to hear them criticise female characters that
don't embody them (or, at least don't in the most obvious way possible to them), especially when the men I play the same games with don't do that.
Also, these all are actual women I know and hang out with irl, not secret moids/troons or whatever. Doesn't matter if we're playing a hero shooter or a ttrpg, they always interact with female characters the same way (they even get miffed with me if my dnd character isn't a pretty elf or whatever like theirs is kek, and question why I even draw women who aren't 'pretty'). They are critical of male characters too btw, it's just not the same kinda sting to hear that as 'this woman doesn't fit in the box of acceptability I have for women in my head, so she is bad and unwanted'. Thankfully this is all in regards to fiction though, and usually not directed towards NPCs either, just PCs and protagonists.

So no, not attracted to them.
I don't get those reactions to butch designs either, especially when they can't be dubbed a case of 'draw a man, call it a woman', because all it does is further emphasise that what women can be and look like fits into a very narrow bracket and that their greatest value is sexual attractiveness. I'm not interested in seeing that pushed for fiction or real life, which fiction (and discussions surrounding it) can be the training wheels for.

FNAF is like Yume Nikki in that you have to come up with your own conclusion if you want any answer for what the hell is going on. The difference is that you have to make your own interpretation for Yume Nikki because Kikiyama never wanted it to have a crystallized meaning. It's a weird game and whether it's even supposed to mean anything is up to the individual. Scott thought he could have something going with there being five murdered kids who possess animatronics with a killer running around and eventually getting murked by a bunny suit. But he gradually started adding more details when he noticed his game getting popular, realized that lore-baiting was a solid way to hook in viewers, threw in random details that still has fans scratching their heads, and retcons that don't even make any sense when you look at what the games tell us before Sister Location. Scott doesn't really know what he's doing. He lost his own plot years ago, which made it into one of the most horribly written franchises of all time. That's the hard pill to swallow for FNAFags.

Unless a character's race is clearly established, nonhuman characters would be the race and ethnicity of their voice actors IF they were drawn as people. But I make an exception for Darwin because having his human form be a black kid would be extremely awkward considering he was bought and sold from a black alley salesman.

>>2572791That's what I don't like about shipping. Shippers are generally stupid. Most of them don't care if the ship makes sense. They're just horny dumbasses who think two characters who would most definitely not have chemistry somehow would just because their brain thinks it's "aesthetic" or whatever. They can't even write the ship in a setting or a plot divergence where it can make sense. They mostly just draw shitty memes and art for it and when they do try to write it, it sucks because fanfiction is generally badly written. The only time I will take a fanon ship over a canon ship is if the source material fumbled so bad that its canon ship doesn't obey its own writing, but that's rare. Yeah sure fans can ship because it's fandom and "muh creativity" but it's still a concept that runs generally unintellectual when you look at what the source tells us about the characters vs. what faggots THINK they got right about the material. This goes for heterofags, yaoifags, and yurifags. Most ships are stupid, and the worst part about shipwars is their implication that fandoms have to revolve around such stupid takes of who belongs with what when there is so much more you can do in a fandom. I think that's what I hate the most about shippers. They devolve fandom to their pornrot and braindead humor that characters with absolutely zero romantic chemistry would and should totally fuck and get married because "I don't care! Asuka would totally fuck Rei even though Asuka would never touch a woman like that in her life! Guts would totally be a bottom for Griffith, a man he canonically doesn't fuck with!". Dumb ships imply that the person doesn't understand character dynamics enough, which strikes me as a person who doesn't keep up with what the source material is actually telling them. This is a branch in mischaracterization, and people who don't care to get the characterization right every time they interact with the source material do not rub me as real fans.
No. 2573474
>>2573082There's definitely people who get way too extreme about it, but for most people, fandom is like playing with dolls. They take characters they like and put them in situations that canon doesn't explore, and shipping is just one of many ways to do that. What would the point of fandom be if people just focused on the same things that canon already tells us about?
Putting two characters together doesn't instantly make them ''ooc'', it just makes things not line up with canon anymore, and that's fine, as long as people are aware of it. The one thing that I will say is annoying is when people make this about characters' ''sexualities'', which is not the same as pairing two random characters together. I mostly enjoy m/m and f/f ships, but I don't really insist on sexuality headcanons that line up with my ships. It's just for fun, and in a lot of cases I know it's not what would happen in canon, but in the end it doesn't really affect my enjoyment of it.

Calling her a lesbian just to ship her with the other band members ignores her canon characterisation in favour of making her a toy to play with for HCs.
> expressing disappontment over yet another series shoving in unneeded straight romance is perfectly valid.Thinking that something is “unneeded” just because it’s designed for a female audience who happens not to include you is incredibly childish. I thought you guys were all about female empowerment and women-centric stores? This film is just that, but here you are whining regardless because it was never about feminism for you.
> I think you just have a problem with lesbians, or women that just have 0 interest in menAs I stated, yuri is fine. But himejoshis are not a special class above being called out for hypocrisy, not when they spent a month building up to the film daring anyone not to appreciate the female characterisation, only to ignore it themselves because it didn’t have the romantic lesbian undertones THEY wanted. This being despite the film having some of the most fun female characterisation I’ve seen in animation in a while backed by an artist team led by majority non-TIF/TIM women.

Am I the only one who thinks this insistence on lesbianism for xyz fictional characters is… regressive? Misogynistic? Idk. It feels similar to troonshit in a very specific way. Like, you have to fit an lgbt stereotype to be of good moral character. I’m not sure if I’m explaining myself correctly.
Most young women are heterosexual. I think they should be allowed to have favorable representation. But all of these fandom activists insist that if a woman is likable and around other likable women, they have to be gay. Otherwise, there is something “wrong”. Insert endless whining and callout posts about it.
I don’t want to sound like “heterosexuals r opressed boohoo” but I don’t think this sends a good message to young girls. It’s just reinforces toxic heteronormative stereotypes. You can’t be likable and heterosexual. There’s no such thing as moral heterosexuality.
It would be far better for young women if they saw good examples of female characters/ heterosexuality portrayed in media.
Feels like we went from “shit female representation in shit het relationships to” “good female representation, no heterosexuality permitted”.
I’d really like to see better het female representation. As the largest demographic of women, obv it’s going to be far more helpful.
I know heterosexuality irl is fucked, because of moids, but it would be a good idea to show women via example what it could look like ideally. Raise their expectations, encourage them not to settle.
I know I’m onto something when every rare het parting with a good dynamic are called “lesbians”, every decent het male character is called “babygirl”, “wife”, etc.
No. 2574343
>>2574284At this point I’m convinced women are so conditioned to accept misogyny as the norm that they interpret misogynistic oppression as queer oppression. They either don’t process misogyny as the issue, or are too afraid to point it out, and hide behind more “safe” grievance politics. The only
valid way to point out the issues with a typical female upbringing is to present it as gayshit. They just reassign misogynistic oppression to qweer opression.

>>2574341There's nothing wrong with yurishipping for fun, but there's 100% a mentality in terminally online fandoms that het is bad and boring. It reminds me of "wahhh fujoshis are fetishizing gay men but if you are one yourself that's so
valid and cool". The end result is lots of fandom women pretending to be bisexual / lesbian or being socially conditioned to troon out because they like men "in a gay way". I think it's because teenagers see being gay as a fandom and want to be understood and be special and unique and different from other people in a meaningful way.
Most people are het and end up with the opposite sex. It's not evil or boring or shameful to be a woman attracted to men and I wish super online teenage girls would know that. I also don't think heterosexuals are oppressed. It feels more centered around misogyny and shame.
No. 2574753
>>2574657> I think it's because teenagers see being gay as a fandomI think this isn't talked about enough, but yep, the terminaly online LGBT/spicy straight and "queers" have an extremely fandom-like view of gayness and "queerness", and a lot of them might as well be doing RP. The obsession with colecting hyperspecific labels is like a teenager making a Mary Sue OC that is a half vampire quarter kitsune eight mermaid space princess with an angel wing+demon wing combo and heterochromia and a sharingan. The obsession with flags (especially the pinterest aesthetic colour palette ass ones) is also extremely fandom-y (ironically, I'd compare this to millenials taking a pottermore quizz and then obsessing over hufflepuff or whatever memorabilia), and their focus on "discoving your identity" being so separate from any irl importance/being such a self made issue is very roleplay-like.
I don't think it's surprising that fandoms in general have become infested with these types.

>Just say you hate het and move on.I never denied that, though? I'll automatically skip any piece of media that gets marketed in a way that makes it clear that hetero romance is a big focus. And so I end up feeling disappointed when a series could otherwise be good, but they decide to randomly add romance that nobody (besides you, apparently) asked for.

What makes it especially irksome is that hetero women are the majority, yet decent representation is virtually nonexistent outside of some peanuts thrown here and there. This is being
treated like a minority, this is just misogyny. I’m tired of the world being so moidcentric that being oppositional and disrespectful to women comes before everything. Het women aren’t spared from feeling isolated just because most moids are heterosexual too.

You anons are never getting the het representation you want because it's a problem beyond fandom. Heterosexuality is the default, and heterosexual sex is depicted as something a man takes away from a woman or something done to a woman. There is no female sexuality, women have no real power or are equal to men in the bedroom. It doesn't matter what a woman has achieved or created, a woman having sex with a man makes her devoid of any redeeming quality and even her humanity altogether. When a woman agrees to have sex with a man, because that means she agrees to be seen and used as meat, it's a funeral to her dignity, integrity, worth and fragile state as a human being and a celebration for the patriarchy. This is how you end up with rape fetishes so they don't have to bear responsability, trad leaning pickmes that are transparent about how sex is a service that they must provide, pickmes who are hypersexual to "gain control back", polilez and women who just give up and end up trooning out because being a woman is too exhausting. And i know you will say "but it's fiction it can be anything you want" and i agree, but very few people think like us even if they swear they don't, so we never get the media we want. I guess it begs the question, who controls the culture? The people behind the media or the people watching it?

I was scrolling through the tag of a fotm yaoi ship and came across this. Who is the target audience here? It is absolutely half-assed and lazy, she just put on a lingerie and called it a day. I seriously doubt moids are checking yaoi tags. Are women just pretending to like it? The tag is already filled with vomit inducing cuntboy shit, and giving attention to stuff like picrel makes the tag even more unbrowsable.

>>2576214I think it can just be plain insecurity too though, especially since animation in general can have a dismissive reputation of
only being for children, rather than a medium anyone could enjoy, so these kinds of fans over-correct by trying to hype up anything slightly mature or grim as making it not some great shame to be watching it while not also being under 13 years old. That insecurity is, of course, an expression of immaturity too (and buying into the aforementioned stereotype + that media for children can't also be thoughtful/sad/scary/intense/violent). Just enjoy stuff kek
I feel like you do see it a bit less (at least as a defensive argument, maybe not the 'omg this is a kids show???' hyperbole) now that things like anime are more mainstream, and I've noticed that it can also be dependent on cultural stuff or how sheltered someone is– some people have really low thresholds for what makes something for kids or not.
No. 2576371
>>2576027These days most fandoms will unfortunately have trannies, unless the series tries REALLY hard to filter them, which is easier said than done. One way to (somewhat) accomplish this would be media with a huge language barrier, or media that just doesn't have a large western following in the first place. Of course, this obviously makes it harder to engage in fandom, as most of it ends up being non-english speaking.
I have a fujo ship that gets a lot of content and I don't have to worry about troon shit, but at the same time most of it is japanese and it's very niche on the western side of fandom,
plus nonas here probably wouldn't be into it anyway. So they definitely exist, but I would honestly recommend just ignoring western fandoms of things you're into and sticking to asian artists for fan content.

They still haven't put any confirmed gay characters in the books to appease them, though, (supposedly because they don't want countries like Russia banning them, though a similar dragon book series called Wings of Fire has a canon lesbian couple and it's doing fine afaik) so it seems performative.

I feel like all the ero scenes are definitely jerkoff fuel for degenerate scrotes and a projection of Scaji's fetishes, and if it weren't then there wouldn't be HCGs of the particularly disturbing scenes to begin with. But on the other hand, even the most disgusting otaku moids I've seen have been grossed out by some of the hentai scenes. VNs like Maggot Baits or Euphoria rely on visual stimuli to feel disgust, Subahibi HCGs (namely the ones that weren't purely made with fap material in mind) rely on the psychological components. They are dependent on context to feel the exceptional discomfort the game is so good at evoking the feeling of.

No. 2578986
>>2578983It CAN be a
valid way to cope, though. A common fantasy of abuse survivors are things along the lines of standing up to their abusers, imagining if they actually had power and could fight back, imagining having a secret weapon to shock their abuser with to get away and feel satisfied, etc… it's no different with rape
victims, and writing it is a good way to get it out of your system, similar to how journaling is good for that very reason.
No. 2578994
>>2578991As I said, it's a good way to get it out of your system. Unresolved trauma leads to rumination, but how are you supposed to even resolve trauma? By talking about it over and over and over with a therapist who only looks at your pain through a clinical lens? But what about sharing it with people who may have similar feelings to you? Connecting to other people through your pain? Slowly realizing it wasn't your fault or that you can still be loved as you write it out and realize you want the characters you're projecting onto to have a happy ending, and subsequently, yourself as well? Even in rapefic that just seems like glorified torture porn with no catharsis, there's still the element of "look at me. look at the fact i'm hurting. it's nasty, isn't it? look me dead in the eyes, and don't ignore me" which can be cathartic in the sense that most people will want to ignore you're hurting.

victim blaming where people blame the
victim for having PTSD after the attack and daring to burden them with their emotions. But with the anonymity aspect of fanfic, that danger is gone.

>>2575652As a "proshipper" my belief that anyone should be able to draw and write whatever they want extends to women only, especially since purity culture primarily affects women.

If that's how you're defining it then yeah you're right it's not possible to make a man who is sub 5'0 without looking like a child or a weird looking midget who doesn't conform to the typical proportions of a handsome man, because that literally doesn't exist at all, it's not an actual physical possibility. inb4 you sperg about 3DPD again but yes this not being proportionally possible irl also means you can't draw it and have it look natural in art either.

I am loving how Death Stranding 2 is pissing off people by daring to have some actual feminist messaging. I was shocked this actually came from kojima of all people. One of the messages literally appears to be "men should protect women and children, not victimize and oppress them" but woke gendies got mad because a game with the themes of life and death and species extinction has, oh no! procreation and babies and female biology, you know, the basic biological facts of the matter, as a theme.
For characters like Rainy it was their choice, and they were artificially inseminated, and characters talk about it being wrong to be forced into it or enslaved. It is actually quite nuanced about motherhood and women if people took off their staunch tumblr anti-natalist goggles for two seconds.
They made a game that both triggers male anti-woke bro gamers who think female character = fanservice and were expecting metal gear tier fanservice from the game for some retarded reason. Also christian men mad about the women and children only society that protects themselves from men, especially the exact kind of men they are (and probably also the fact they were artificially inseminated, because it goes against their religion that demands women only sleep with moids to have children kek)
The only questionable moments I noticed are when the guitar douchebag moid constrains tomorrow in a questionable manner, but A) That is in-character for that moid and B) He is immediately flipped off by fragile for it. People talk about the barefoot thing but most normal people don't see feet and instantly think of sex. It isn't exactly portrayed as titillating anyway. The clothes look like actual clothes people wear. Nintendo games for children sexualize the female characters more than this game does. So basically moids are mad this isn't porn and has an actual message, and gendie libfems are mad this game acknowledges biological sex and how women are oppressed due to their sex and where babies come from so they have to pretend it is just feet porn. Or they're mad about the concept that women need to be protected, which is just true unless you live in a delusional fantasy world.
If anything that ending makes me sad because of how moids will never actually protect women and children that way. Moids are only protectors like they should be in fiction.

>I like that new character but it did somewhat ruin the balance from the original game.Yeah Atlus games have that issue where the add on characters always feel like they're add ons and you can tell that they weren't originally planned, adding a sudden "is it okay to be in love with a man who looks and acts exactly like a woman???" plot into a game about a guy cheating on two extremely different women feels kinda out of nowhere.

I'm watching DBDfags lose their minds over Springtrap being in the game but I don't give a fuck about that. I don't give a fuck about Dead by Daylight.

>>2582991>what parts of the FNAF fandom do you engage with?I mainly engage with the theorizing aspects of FNAF. Because Scott is a lore-baiter who wrote this damn franchise to still be so vague with what
exactly is going on, a lot of details can be left up for individual interpretation. I like to look at details in the games themselves, as well as look at details other fnafags picked up so that I can form ideas about things like remnant, how possession works, and even wtf was in that locked box in FNAF4. The box thing, I'm still thinking about. I also love to look at and compliment FNAFanart from artists on different platforms. I hate PinkyPills' take on what the Afton family looks like, so I completely ignore any art that replicates the way she designed William (a Tim Burton Peter Griffin). I hate it when people act like their headcanons are THE canon (I hate GameTheory's overconfidence for this reason), but I do like it when fans create their interpretations of the lore and how the characters are BASED on what we see from the games. I keep PJ Heywood's improvised idea that William and the Aftons are English, but I also do like the concept of William being American and talking in a sophisticated yet mostly monotone voice. Some memes, I do think is funny like when fans make fun of William rising up from the dead for the 1938473596858th time so that the next game can have him as the antagonist.
>How do you keep things fresh when the franchise has moved on from that chapter of the story?Again, playing the games, coming up with my own theories and sniffing around for details and "based" takes that other fans come up with. When slacking off at work, I like to draw different versions of William and Michael on a little notepad that I stash in my pocket. I absolutely don't like the amount of gendies that flocked to this fanbase, that shit is annoying. I like asking myself hypothetical questions about the characters, like what brand of cigars would William most likely smoke? What music would Michael listen to? What was William's relationship like with his wife?
>Sorry if this sounds like an interrogation kek. I'm missing the old gang myself.It's cool. It makes me take a little breath when I remember that this game is about to be over ten years old now. Ten years, can you believe it? Every child who liked this game when it first came out is an adult now. Qualified oldfags of the game.

>>2578973I agree, honestly. It's not even like coomer fanart, where moids will go out of their way to show everyone their gross fetish. Most of the time you can completely ignore fanfics you don't like just by using the tagging system. I don't think the authors necessarily have a right to complain about being
judged (and if they're not smart enough to use an alt, that's on them) but overall it's not a big deal.

>>2580963I know Kojima is a coomer but he is a thousand times better than the average Japanese man when it comes to women. The Boss is one of my favorite female characters in fiction.
