>>16528743the vtuber women (and their male handlers) who started this are doing it to appease the gross otaku nerd males that are the ones dropping their paychecks on them to enjoy temporary happiness from a cute anime girl acknowledging their existence, They are making a product that is widely popular with men. It's the outsider women that want to see these "anime girls" change to their standards is the problem. Women love handsome anime boys and don't see a problem why they shouldn't regularly interact with the anime women. I don't know any healthy regular men who prefer watching male anime streamers over women unless they're actually gay, which is funny because I've been noticing a pattern where people defending male vtubers call people "gay" for not liking/wanting anything to do with a male vtuber, this is a common type of insult women do irl, insulting a man's sexuality and masculinity, and I'm going to make the bold claim that these are the "women invaders" who are currently present in the fan base, trying to change the established culture.
