>>37118954Well, there's also the type of people (like myself) who are simply uninterested in male collabs, yet aren't unicorns because we don't consider ourselves to be in a relationship with the streamer. That's more gachikoi territory in my eyes.
I mean, I won't deny that I have certain feelings for my oshi, but I know there's never going to be anything between us. The important part is not generating involuntary feelings of jealousy by having dudes on-stream.
IMO, it goes like this:
- Schizo larp unicorn: People who demand their oshi still be a virgin, having never talked with any male before, and is 100% committed to them/chat. (Possibly insane, false-flagging or just trolling.)
- Actual unicorn: People who consider themselves to be in a long-distance relationship with their oshi. Demands that they stay out of relationship for their tenure, and no male collabs.
- Gachikoi: People who have strong feelings for their oshi, and strongly dislike male collabs. Under no illusion that they're in a relationship.
- CGDCT enjoyer: People who harbor no strong feelings for their oshi, but still prefer no male collabs due to atmosphere reasons.
Ratios here are probably something like 5/15/40/40% respectively.
There are people between categories obviously. The point is that collab beggars tend to paint every one of them as the larp unicorns, when in reality they're a tiny minority by comparison to the rest of the collab dislikers. (It's sort of like saying all right-wingers are nazis, or all leftists communists.)
