>when
I honestly feel like I've been unlocking words of power my whole life like the dragonborn and I just unlocked the "just send it" words. I used to think "when" as well and it was just another form for my fears, for the mind killer.
Suffice to say I'm not really that worried for myself, just for you.

>parasocial is bad!!
I'm so glad you mentioned this because I could talk about this passionately forever. The short is that I don't care, if people love you enough to give you something, you should give something back to them, even if they'll like you more.
Besides, with streaming, the relationship is collectively reciprocal, is asynchronously interactive, content is partially created by the audience (rather than being produced outside its direct contribution), and has no intermediary between the creator-consumer. An intermediary between the consumer and the creator is obviously not necessary for a relationship to be parasocial, but it's a pretty big indicator.
Therefore, it's just plainly inaccurate and immature to say that all streamer-viewer relationships are parasocial, when most aren't.
Most streamers simply lack the total absence (or near absence) of reciprocation required for a relationship to be parasocial. -- Although I'll admit for the non-critical aspects there can definitely be significant overlap between the two groups otherwise, some overlap less shallow and face-value than others, but this is why we have the term transparasocial.

>what made you want to appeal to cbdct
/cbdct/ was very nice to me about my vocaroo and the response wasn't just positive, it was extremely over the top. Disbelief it's actually you singing, is a more than nice compliment I feel.
>unicorns
For unicorns, I can sort of understand where female unicorns are coming from, and if I would make fun of a male for paying for content of a female where the content is the female flirting with other people, then I wouldn't turn around and invoke the same thing. There's a bird named after the former kind of thing.
It also seems in general that there's literally no guys who naturally appeal to unicorns completely, there's always some sort of compromise female unicorns have to do, and I think that's really sad honestly. At least male unicorns have options, and I couldn't imagine what it's like to not have that choice.
I guess it's just a respect thing. You should love, respect, appreciate and try to give back to like they give to you.
>women
I like women, and I've flirted with cute guys on the internet (as a joke obviously) but I'm straight. I just have no interest in collabing with female streamers, *especially* female VTubers, and doubly so when it comes to the idea of dating them.
I would date my viewers.
I wouldn't date a female VTuber over my audience.
Really simple.
>most of the popular male tubers collab with women
Most streamers in general can't even respect the relatively large subgroups in their audience, like female unicorns. Almost none can stop themselves from taking things they are given for granted either, so what popular males do with women doesn't concern me much.

It's really simple and I hate to admit it, but most men are just terrible, we have no self control, no dignity, no determination and no will. I would stay pure for my audience though and *enjoy* doing it.
