This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Kinda answered his own question there, didn't he.

You see, the steamer depicted may not be the exact subject matter they're referring to. They might have just googled female streamers, or loaded up Twitch and looked for the first girl on camera and snapped a screen shot.

With all that being said, I understand the appeal of wanting to watch something that you think is pretty. Hell, that's the entire reason I played cyberpunk as a female character despite being very cis, and male.

For 90% of game play my gender doesn't matter. Until cutscenes where I get to watch my avatar interacting with others.

Outside of cutscenes, I'm looking first person, so what difference does it make?

Obviously women have long hair, and that can get in the way, making it harder to see. You don't want hair in your face when you got to fit that piece through the side precisely, making a last second rotation to fit lest you end up with a hole on your stack

Male Loneliness Epidemic is mostly just broke teenagers trapped in the suburbs who haven't figured out their girl peers are just as lonely, broke, and horny as they are.

As soon as they crack the code, they're at it like jackrabbits

We been trying to go backwards ever since the first life form split. Some are more motivated than others. The hive mind explores every potential ctrl+z for mitosis... Put it back! Stop! No, go away!... Lone star the barbarian just wanna get merged n go home.

We're all just animals under the surface. Human exceptionalism is a fallacy. The hormones are just as much a part of you as any conscious thought.

The stranger thing to me is why this type of performance is a thing people watch in the first place. I do not mean that in a judgemental way at all. I am more interested in what it says about the nature of entertainment and human social behavior. This seems like a glitch in the meaning and value of tribalism. The potential benefit is very limited. The person performing has obvious returns on investment. It is the others that I question.

Loneliness meets parasocial relationships
