So, what’s /vt/‘s opinion on men who use female rigs or whatever? Is it creepy or just whatever? Here’s one example I found.

I personally don't prefer it but it's not tranny shit so it's fine. If they go too far trying to act like a woman during it, or try to trick their viewers or whatever, then I'll shit on them, but otherwise it doesn't matter. A good example of the opposite is Inuyama Tamaki. Norio sensei doesn't ever really try to act like a boy during her streams, so it doesn't make me want to blow my brains out when I watch.

Zentraya or whatever his name is from vshojo is a good example of what not to do.

I hate nothing more than clicking on a cute girl in the thumbnail and hearing some guy in a discord chat with three of his bros.
It doesn't really creep me out because whenever I've come across it it feels like the same thing as playing a female character in an RPG, but it pisses me off. You can tell the difference between a guy using a girl because he like the look of the model or its an artist's distinctive avatar/OC and a genuine tranny.

I'm a less than 2 viewer average streamer who can't stream right now and I've debated coming back as a vtuber. Debated if I did whether I'd be a babiniku or have a male avatar.

Same rules more or less, I don't care if they're not using it for a shit purpose. I don't watch them though because they can attract a weird crowd (like the >What's your pronouns? type) and because I like watching dudes with dude avatars and girls with girl avatars.

I see no problem at all with dudes being dudes.
As long as the person is not actually pretending to be a girl like some mentally ill schizoid it's all good.

It's based. Or rather I'm based. I make a lot of art and porn etc. My avatars are simply vehicles for my expression, and not 1 to 1 analogs. I've used a male avatar based off me before and people would still call me a girl lol, now I just use a girl avi. There seems to be a lot of people in this thread with weird sexual hang ups. I can assure you male or female the idea of ever having a relationship with us is purely illusion. Regardless I have been paid hundreds of dollars to tell people I love them. I was once paid a few hundred to simply speak with a person and provide them comfort. At one point I was paid 250 to listen to some submissive hypnosis audio tape. I make it very clear these are transactions of course though. For the babis lurking as long as you're a good streamer there will be plenty who watch and simp for you. Though if I'd had one complaint it is the huge ammount of thirsty guys and surprisingly girls. I'm no prude and I'm super sex positive but it's really degrading sometimes. I was once talking about getting laid off recently and it was meat with nothing but horny responses. And took me re iterating a few times before it sunk in and they all became quite supportive. The beginning was the worse. The mass of ammount of weirdly rapey comments people think are romantic is strange. The constant requests to meet up etc. I think it all is a balancing act, if I was a femboy model it would be the same, if I was a girl it would be I think 10 times worse which is scary to think about. I will say I haven't hear the phrase "I'm not gay but-" be said so much.

It's just whatever. Some people put women up on a pedestal for whatever reason, either worshiping or hating them. Women are humans too and just as disgusting and abusive as men can be. The idea of being creeped out is because you notice something is not what you think it is supposed to be. For the more adult and well developed individuals it's pretty obvious that they're nothing like their character even if they're men or women in real life.

What is more creepy? A normal guy chilling and using a female model or a female con artist and drug abuser doing a weird baby voice with their anime model to play into some weird online fantasies to farm the easy money?

To me the second one is far more creepy and repulsive. The first one is just a bit weird because of the voice and model mismatch. There are a lot of different types of vtubers with different reasons but people tend to make more excuses for obvious grifters and groomers if they can do certain voices.

But do they really aim to trick you? Why would they try something so blatantly obvious? I mean if they would want to hide their voice they could just get a TTS device to do the voice like Zentreya. It seems more like "wanting to be a cute animu girl" and this is as close they can get to it. And chat sometimes buys into it.

Basically was the same(at least when I stopped watching, I dunno if he's gone full tranny now), but that character he's vtubing as was just a static png. I assumed the character was his waifu and that's why he had it up.
He was just seemed like a regular dude who speedran games I thought were interesting.

I just watch his latest stream and he's alright. Nothing wrong. Dude just seems to love Verniy or whatever.

Got no issue whatsoever and am subscribed to several JP babis. I wouldn't be interested in them doing ASMR but other than that I'll watch them as much as any female chuuba. If I ever became a chuuba I'd want to use a female model which is part of why I don't bother. Nobody wants EN babis, I'd just get lumped in with trannies and I can't be fucked with dealing with that shit

I know they exist and they're usually based but are you sure you aren't just looking at trannies?

Of course they're not trannys.
Do you even think a vtuber from vshoujo would even doubt to expose zher whole vtuber personality on the fact that they're trans?
They'd fucking 2837% use that on every single title and thumbnail.

Only two babinikus I watch is pic related and Itou Life.

Reason why beatmario went for babiniku is because the only cutest thing in the world is his wife, which his avatar is based on.
