Thought's On LI Sexuality Headcannon ?

[hib]

Just Saw A Drama Explode On Twitter When Just Looking For Fanart On Head Cannoning Otome Characters Guys ! It Devolved Into Homophobia / Transphobia Name Calling Cesspool , It's Twitter , What Do You Expect ? ? ? ? It's Crazy , So I Want To Know Everyone's Thoughts .

Mine Is Just I Don't Like It And I Just Don't Care , Just Block It . . .

I Don't Really Even Think About Sexuality Or Gender Identity In This Stuff Unless The Story Revolves Around It , I Just See Characters As MC - Sexual LOL ~
I Don't Like LI X LI or Any Non MC X LI Shipping In Any Romance Games In General , But I Can Move On With My Day Ignoring It . . . . . . . . .
Honestly , It's Only A Problem When It Goes Into The Game And Changes The Genre , But Fans Should Be Free To Share Opinions Together .
My Only Rule Is Tag Your Stuff Properly , It Will Stop A Lot Of Fan Wars . . . . . . .

The quoted post about that harmless question was the first one I saw. I read through their replies and was like ??? even itchio games caught a stray for no reason ??? then it all spiraled and then a lot of tweets about it appeared on the timeline. It honestly doesn't bother me, people can headcanon what they want. Personally haven't ever thought about LI x LI shipping but whenever I see posts about it, I just go, "Ooh that's cute. I can see that." But that's really it lol, I just move on after seeing it. I still find it wild that such a niche community like ours gets into a fight almost about everything. I mean it is increasing every year but still small enough to recognize most active people within it

aslong as it doesn't hurt people, i dont see an issue with sexuality hcs?

i dont see why this should be discussed in the open. otome games are gxb for the player, aka a woman, to selfinsert into, so why would you fantasize about which character actually loves men as well? i just dont see the appeal
and mind you, this never happens with galge. probably because galge players know full well that all girls are attracted to the protagonist/the player only

I think Twitter's a weird metric for drama because the average drama there is something like

Person A: hmm what if <character> was <transgender/bi/gay/poly/etc>
Person B: well, they aren't.
Everyone: Oh yeah?! Well, then why aren't they??? So you hate women AND minorities!

I don't know why this particular discussion keeps getting repeated. I'm not going to say that galge communities are drama-free, but the drama there has VERY different points of discussion.

galge communitys main (almost only) concern is lack of r18 titles being released with each passing year. which is valid unfortunately, because everything is either a gacha or censored to the bone
