genuine question: how does watching vtubers with a boyfriend make me a cuck if they never mention it? i watch plenty of male streamers who have girlfriends and no one cares, so why is it any different for vtubers? ones who dont do gfe i mean

My take is: they do GFE? Then having a bf = viewer cucked. They don't do GFE? Then having a bf = not cucked but you are still watching an anime girl with a bf; imagine watching anime where you can't self-insert as the harem lord. You're just there paying for condoms so what's the point? I'd rather watch something else at that point.

>ones who dont do gfe i mean
If they both don't do GFE and you don't form a parasocial connection with them, it doesn't.
However, if they're exploiting a parasocial connection with a substantial portion of their audience and you're clearly aware of that, but you still support them, you're at the very least cuck-adjacent.
If the vtuber openly admits to not wanting that sort of thing, is open about relationship status, etc, it's not.
The fact is however that it's not the case for most vtubers.
Also, a lot of anons here are either too heavy handed or not heavy handed enough in how they define GFE, and often times do so just to make reality align with what they want to be true. When a person says a vtuber "isn't GFE", if the person is a fan of said vtuber, or is an open antagonist or proponent of GFE, their opinion on whether that vtuber actually is GFE or not is questionable in its validity at best(at least on its face). It takes somebody with a neutral attitude towards GFE and no investment in a particular chuuba while still being familiar with what GFE entails to be capable of actually, accurately concluding whether or not a chuuba is GFE or not.

i don't get it either anon, i separate the character from the roommate too
like yeah, artia is my oshi; exactly artia, not her roommate, not her past lives, not her future lives, just artia. i don't care that her roommate used to be super racist against whites, or if she supports chinese politics, or if she coordinated 100% of the chink attacks on coco, it was her roommate, NOT ARTIA. Artia said her channel was just a place for fun lighthearted entertainment, not politics, THAT is the artia that that's my oshi.

in that same way, if rushia is my GFE chuuba, she acts 100% like a GFE on stream. she doesn't talk about boyfriends, she doesn't hint at boyfriends, because rushia is single and therefore mine! it doesn't matter if rushia's roommate has a BF or not, because ROOMMATE=/= CHARACTER.

>Same here ever since the time of Kizuna Ai..
Also since Kizuna Ai, I stopped watching them because they were an uninteresting fad until they started making vtubers I could gachikoi for.
Vtubers were genuinely uninteresting. They were an anime. And anime can be fun. But it's a passing fancy. I don't want a passing fancy, I want something real. GFE made vtubing real.

It's not about literally paying for condoms. It's like when you have a girl friend and she just uses you to listen to her ranting about her bf: it's not a bad thing to do but why would you do it?
>>24545938
I'm the anon you responded to. I watch them for entertainment too of course but now the entertainment alone is not that important. I like the concept of hanging out with a pure anime girl. I stopped trying directly with 3DPD as expecting them to not be degenerate dickless men is just impossible nowadays so at the very least an anime girl shouldn't be like that.

If someone uses you just to rant their problems out I wouldn't call that a friend. One thing is to listen to someone's problems and another thing is to become the problem dumbster so that friend can live their life freely after dumping their shit on you.
>>24546208
In this case, by definition, you are also a cuckold but the thing is you don't really know so it's not like it's your fault. Everyone can be a cuck but if you let it pass after it happens then you should be laughed at. If you leave her then at the very least you showed you have self-respect.

Because this is /vt/ and its users refuse to pick up a dictionary and read the actual definition. Also more likely they don't SC because "muh condom/multimillionaire funding". Even more so likely that they don't watch streams and live their pathetic little lives trying to antagonize actual viewers. At the end of the day, you watch what you want. Whether or not they have a boyfriend, I couldn't care less. If they make me happy and laugh with their entertainment, I'll fucking fund their future child's college tuition while the bottom feeders continue yelling into the void on this site.
