>>42426638>>42427333Professionalism is disappearing from Western streaming culture. The obsessive focus on blame and insults is just extremely unnecessary. Nobody needs to focus on the section of the audience that are mentally challenged, and nobody needs to focus on the personal issues of the streamer. It's just not worth paying attention to for anyone that has a functional life.
In this regard, it's not just girls, but the entire Western streaming culture thriving on drama and/or close personal interactions that really contrasts with Japanese streaming culture that mainly focuses on business/professional social distance.
A cute Japanese girl that you're not close with, but isn't a stranger either, is very attractive and offers an appeal different from cute girls in the West who either care too much about themselves or too much about some haters, making them change the streaming experience because of their own personal issues.
The Western audience is also part of the problem. They believe "Affection" means "Interaction," when in reality affection can be shown in many other different ways that Westerners dismiss as "mindreading attempts." If you consider context and habitual behavior, it's quite possible to receive "affection" while also remaining at a professional distance.
Examples:
>I really like how you've been working hard for us lately. You usually stream for 2 days a week, but I notice that you stream for 4 days a week recently. That must mean you really care about us and I respect that.>You haven't been streaming recently, but I noticed that you've been acting a little different in your previous streams. The specifics are none of my business, but I'll let you know I can see there is a problem. You will tell us about the problem? That means you really trust us, I respect that. Both the streamer AND the audience need to remain professional, but it is too "cold" for Westerners to adapt to because their society is mostly "warm."
