The thing I really hate about this fandom is how you thundering chucklefucks can't even wank properly.

You are so fucking obsessed with your zombie undead drama from 2008 that I bet I could pick up a YGO character, right now, app them into a game with more headcanon than canon in their application, play only for shipping and go as wildly OOC as possible, RP smut like I'm cybering Yahoo chat-style, and no one would say a thing because the two of you who would even remotely give a fuck would be too busy stroking your hateboner to what Qu and friends are doing today.

I don't get this fandom. I'm one of the anons who has brought up the thing about how a lot of people seem to only focus on guy/guy, and I wasn't even involved in fandom back then.

Prove it.

Namedrop these RPers you've seen who only play m/m.

Right here.

hope you know you'll never get a response to this lmao

If you mean general fandom discussion? Then I wholeheartedly agree, but I'd say that discussion tends to veer towards shipping in general far, far too often for my tastes, so I avoid most of it. Annoying, yes, but that's fandom for you.

Roleplaying, on the other hand... I don't see it. In fact, most people LJ/DW-side are terrified to play ships at all because of wank just like this.

Either way, I know this thread's not going to go anywhere noteworthy, so I won't bother posting anything other than this. Have fun.

RP, fandom, whatever. The fact that no one considers that these guys might like girls or even be bi and that all I ever see is m/m stuff being discussed and treated like it's all that could exist just bothers me.

please point out to me and everyone else the unwritten fandom rule that says people who like m/m ships all hate het, or think the guys can ONLY be gay? or hell, anything that points to this other than you making wild, unfounded assumptions based on the prevalence of m/m in YGO fandom. i mean, since you've obviously never bothered interacting with any of these players you're complaining about, you wouldn't know if they like het or their opinions on character sexualities anyway.

like i said upthread. you don't bother actually asking, you just skip straight to the complaining. but your tears are so delicious, so feel free to not answer and continue crying about it anyway.

and by upthread i meant last post. ugh.

when i was in this fandom i had a couple of friends who thought the guys could only be gay and hated all the het and girl characters

they also claimed to be heterophobic so they were pretty much dumbshits anyway

i'm pretty sure dipshits like that are the vast minority, at least among the fandom that rps on dreamwidth. they exist, but not usually around here.

not saying those sort rp on dw (though my ex friends rped on im and lj/gj back in the day) but my god they were ridiculous with their bs

well thank god for small favors that idiots like them are the minority here i guess

anyway i ended up breaking off my friendships with both of those fuckers because they were legit batshit and their hate boners towards anything romantic outside of gay men including stuff in real life made me want to puke after i grew a brain and realized how shitty they were being

Pretty sure people like that are basically shunned in this fandom these days broski.

or maybe they all just moved to fanfiction.net instead of roleplaying

also i wonder if the anon with the boy's love hateboner would be bitching if people were playing het in the fandom but it was loli

food for thought

Wasn't there a huge shitstorm about this exact same thing a year or so back though? About a GX character that dared to be straight instead of going for their "destined" and "canon" "love interest" Juudai?

I don't remember all the details but the reaction that it got sounds like what they're talking about.

i remember a lot of shitstorms, brosis. about both that character and the entire rest of the cast he was in. looking at this thread, if he'd been around now, he would've gotten the same reaction if he had gone gay anyway.

point is, you can't win either way, so why even fucking worry about other people's ship preferences? just do your own thing and stop complaining about people who do theirs. for both the people playing m/m and the people playing/wanting to play m/f.

and i still maintain op would rather twiddle their thumbs and sling shit instead of actually talk to people who would prove their hasty conclusions wrong.

I play my characters as bi in memes/dressing rooms, look harder.

Whenever I post in a shippy meme or dressing room I mark it OTA because a) none of my characters have a canon sexuality and b) I'm willing to play just about anything.

this this this this this

Yeah, it's not the same distribution of people, usually, so you can't generalize like that.

I still don't see any names, either.

Wrong. The fact that no one considers that these guys might like girls or even be bi and that all I ever see is m/m stuff being discussed and treated like it's all that could exist just bothers me. If you're thinking about what happened in confusion those HK subs had given people who didn't have the resources or the knowledge of translation, then yes, some shippers were pretty misguided. Get your story straight.

There are those of us that have been in the fandom for years and know this fact.

I DO play a het bi-curious male and have been playing him like that for years. Dig a little deeper, you might be surprised. I wonder where you get your sources from and fanfiction doesn't count. Most that write those stories are picking up where some of those that shipped them years ago had outgrown.

Wait, what's this about the HK subs now?

These were the subs that were translated from Japanese to Chinese back to Japanese so everything that was put into English became mistranslated and screwed up. Reading them read like some kid just threw up words on the screen.

They are inaccurate subtitles and most of them, especially Battle City and anything after as ships and thought of as canon when it's not the case. The mistranslations caused a lot of interesting and otherwise inaccurate interpretations of canon which is where most of the ships came from.

The op anon probably didn't know this which is why I pointed it out.
