Topic: I don’t understand vtubers

I don’t understand why women will use a virtual avatar to pretend to be an anime girl on a livestream. Like what if I did that as a western guy? What if I showed up on a livestream as Homer Simpson?

it's like building a character to feel parasocial about, instead of yourself. the invasion of privacy that the biggest streamers face is pretty notable, and vtuber models are kind of a layer of defense between the streamer and the audience. that and you can design them to be featured in pornography, which people love. good pornography is most of the reason hololive took off.

I don’t know what hololive is. Maybe this sounds narcissistic on some level, but honestly, I feel like I don’t want to be perceived as sexual because whenever an ugly woman is attracted to me it kinda creeps me out.

hololive is/was a vtuber label that popularized vtubers as an idea.

Standards are important. If you only go for what’s immediately available you’re wasting your time. Women see that and don’t respect it. A mediocre catch isn’t a catch and they’ll cause the same volume of headaches and problems. Why settle?

Women feel the same way about ugly men
