GFE, much like being "seiso", is a brand commitment. It will give you a boost in both superchats and viewerships, but it will also severely limit the things you can do, and then you can't go back to how things were.
It's very easy to say " who cares about the incels" but if you brand yourself as a retro vtuber and stop playing retro games your audience will be equally mad (and if you want someone to send you death threats. be a Minecraft streamer that starts using god mode)
If you get tired of the gig and then decided to do a boyfriend reveal you might get your own personal schizo, which is why burning your unicorns after your brand has been established is the most dangerous way out.
Ironically, this also happens to anyone that changes their niche as well, which is why that Niji had to fake his own death to get out. Crazy people do crazy things for crazy reasons.
Then there is the issue where other vtubers will attack you for doing GFE out of sheer crab bucketing. They will pressure you to collab with males ( "homobegging" as /hlg/ calls it) and to cut your "parasocial" audience disguising it as concern. This might end up isolating you from the group.
Therefore this is not something you should consider on a whim. Clearly analyze the pros and cons if you really want in. I would still recommend GFE if you want to practice your acting skills and you are willing to commit to a character for a long period of time. Being the "perfect girlfriend" can burn you out if you don't enjoy playing characters.
Your audience will be more forgiving of current boyfriends yabs via dox than you telling them you don't like whatever stupid thing they are really being nerds about like Bionicles or that your political views doesn't match exactly 99% of theirs. (Actually, the last one is pretty fucking dangerous in this business for anyone so it is better to skip politics altogether).
