lesbian relationships designed to please the male gaze first
Can you name more than five anime/manga where this actually happens that actually get played from in dw rp?
Spoiler: You'll still be wrong in most cases.
I mean why is there so much opposition to the idea that women who may in fact be lesbians themselves
Because these "lesbians" seem to have no issue immediately assuming that the players of female characters they don't like aren't lesbian.
Because these "lesbians" then make homophobic arguments (such as that non-butch girls cannot be gay, or that "proper girls do not act that way", or arguments that 1 lesbian among 100 characters is "unrealistic" and should therefore "not be allowed")
Because these "lesbians" oddly only make these arguments on f/f couples, and seem to have no issues with equally bad or worse situations in m/f or m/m couples. ASOIAF has all the issues people claim "neckbeard animes" have, ten times worse in most cases, yet ASOIAF players do not get these attacks. For the record, I like ASOIAF, but it's ridiculous that it doesn't get attacked, yet much more harmless stuff gets attacked.
Because these "lesbians" have the strange habit of turning out to be straight girls when they anon fail or talk in game chat. Concern trolling to protect homophobia is very common. Have you ever heard of planeocracy? They bullied several people that played non-sexual, non-male gaze aimed F/F out under the pretense of "protecting lesbians", and the person behind it later went on to make statements such as "I don't support homosexuals" and "I am christian, so it is unfair to call me homophobic just because I don't agree with homosexuals getting anymore rights" in public.
That's why. DW RP has a history of concern trolling and outright homophobic bashing towards people that play F/F.
You may be the one unique snowflake that has better reasons, but sadly, if you chose to air your grievances like the homophobes do, it's pretty difficult to tell that you're not just another whiny homophobe that is butthurt about lesbians existing in their game.
