>what is gaywashing
Making cannonically straight characters into gay or lesbian these ships are mostly forced and don't go well
Mostly done by straight and or "sapphic" girls under the pretext of "there's not enough gay/lesbian ships so they have to force them"

applies to historical figures as well, bram strokes has been meme'd into being a closeted self hating gay man cause he apparently sent sexual and romantic letters to Walt Whitman. but if you look them up, they’re not sexual and he explicitly writes the line “You are a true man, and I would like to be one myself, and so I would be towards you as a brother and as a pupil to his master.” he was just a massive fanboy

Parappa and PJ have been getting this treatment a lot for a while, all because of the one time in the second game where they LARP as a couple just to play along with a "romantic" exercise show they saw on TV.

In that stage they do a lot of "romantic" things together, such as hugging, holding hands and summoning flowers out of nowhere as part of the LARP, but near the end of the song there's a cutaway visual gag where Parappa takes it a little too far and attempts to kiss PJ, but fails.

People have been using this scene and stage to claim that Parappa and PJ are bisexual and gay respectively, nevermind PJ's actual reaction being that of disgust at Parappa attempting to kiss him, that both canonically have girlfriends and that the creator for the series has confirmed that Parappa literally only has romantic or sexual feelings for his girlfriend, Sunny.

fans think isabela is a lesbian because she doesn't show interest to the only male character who wasn't her relative in the movie… who she was forced to be with in an arrange marriage by her grandmother. can't isabela be a woman that doesn't want to enter a commitment set by others and doesn't seem interested or in a rush to be in one. I was also glad that her supposed male love interest was cut out of the movie.

i don't mind her being a lesbian but its the fans that shoves this supposed fact down in everyone's throat that ruins the idea for me.

I think this is one of best examples what the thread is about, i guess. most characters i know are just gay for some or most ships. other than that, they can still be straight and certain fans won't turn rabid by the idea.

I'm all for disliking certain slash ships (Bakudeku for instance is retarded) but the fact that anon clearly made this in response to the tranny thread is putting me off. The false equivalency being created between trannies and gays here is uh… something alright.

Also what counts as "gaywashing"? So if a character dates someone of the opposite sex in canon, is it okay for someone to ship them with the same sex as long as they say "bisexual" instead of "gay"? Are gay ships okay in general as long as people don't insist it should be canon? Like what are the rules here OP?

No. 200412

>>200402
Are you retarded? Obviously it’s referring to people who insist characters who are canonically straight are totes “gay” it’s not even about shipping it’s mostly about people headcanoning characters as gay when they’re not. If you don’t like the thread don’t read it, no one is equating trans degeneracy to being gay but it is a common theme in fandoms to scream and cry about X character being totally gay.

Sherlock and Watson have to be the most gaywashed pairing of all time.

People say Abe Lincoln was gay but I have no idea if that's true or not.

Oh an they randomly decided that Seven of Nine from Star Trek Voyager is "canonically bisexual" despite never indicating that in the original show (that I know of anyway, I never watched the entire show).

To be fair with Sherlock Holmes and John Watson I've seen guys from a century ago publishing articles about how they're 100% sure either one of these characters is a woman and they're married to each other, and iirc Sherlock was kind of based on Oscar Wilde because he and Doyle were friends and liked each other's books. So it doesn't come from absolutely nowhere and even homophobes thought the two characters were more than friends.

Point still stands, I dislike that people automatically make Meta Knight gay and are really adamant about him being some shy uwu gay soft bottom and get pissed if you don't like that or pair him up with a female. They straight up turn a badass commander and swords man into some lobotomized uke. I also dislike depictions of Susie Haltmann being a lesbian just out necessity due to the lack of female characters in Kirby especially with Fransisca because she already has Flamberge and they're already heavily implied to be a thing.

No. 200535

>>200393
Something similar happened with Brave. I think it's a consequence of Disney being too wishy-washy to include actual gay characters, so whenever one of their films lacks a romance, crazies online assume the main character is "queer coded." I honestly think that's really reductive, this idea that we always need an "explanation" for why a female character isn't looking for a relationship. Women shouldn't be defined by their relationship status, regardless of their sexuality.

The idea with Merida is that she likes freedom and adventure. That's literally all they were trying to communicate by having her avoid marriage. Not saying that means she can't be gay, what I'm saying is that focusing on her sexuality misses the point of the artistic choice to make her single.

>>200541
Imo some episodes were really good but a lot were just kinda boring. Most episodes were just kind of like a regular crime/detective show, which I'm not into. But that's probably a more faithful interpretation of the original stories I guess. Sometimes the mysteries were really good and sometimes they were predictable. There were episodes with an overarching plotline which I found more interesting, but the series was just too long for me.

No. 200578

>>200566
Eh, I don't really like long series anymore, especially after getting into so many manga in middle school that aren't even over yet, so maybe I'll check the first season if it's self-contained and see how I like it. I remember it being praised compared to Sherlock BBC on tumblr because "muh white males" and "muh queerbait", and sometimes because of Moffat saying stupid shit. I never watched the 3rd season of Sherlock BBC because people posting spoilers before I could even watch any of the episodes on TV. Anyway, some adaptations are gayer than others, it really depends, the gayest I've seen are the Ace Attorney spinoffs and then the movie with RDJ and Jude Law but even then nothing is ever confirmed and it's mostly played up to attract fujoshi t.fujoshi

That could apply to the character people want to troon out as well though? Characters don't go around declaring their sexuality or sex, so saying 'they don't say they're straight so it's not gaywashing' doesn't make sense if you are against transwashing. Also, characters date opposite sex in text. Gaywashing would be saying they're gay, rather than bi (which is pushing it if they're only portrayed as being interested in the opposite sex). If you don't like the thread, hide it? There has been many funny and embarassing instances of gaywashing recently, like a lot of the novels which are straight fanfiction of couples or events (Demon Heart based on a supernatural shipper wanting Destiel to be cannon and getting shutdown, Peyton Thomas' South Park FTM fanfic, etc) and actual harassment (Supernatural actors wives receiving hate/show love interests).

It's funny that if a character shows no interest in the opposite sex, fandom will say they're gay because of the lack of interest. If they're obnoxiously hitting on women at every chance, they'll say the character's gay because he's "overcompensating".

No. 200670

But a character is also assumed straight if they show no interest to anyone. A lot of this thread just seems mad that their favorite character could be viewed as a lesbian or gay. Their sexuality can't be proven unless stated by the author, but also, it does not matter because they are not real.

No. 200671

Dunno, I'm fujo-lite but I assumed this was for cases where people will insist X character must be gay and melt down when straight ships of them get posted, even if those are canon love interests.

I'm not well versed in these terms but I would assume that "gaywashing" meant that the company or whatever decided a character was gay for woke points despite it never being hinted at in that character. also I don't think it matters if a character is canonically straight, as there are characters that we're explicitly showed are attracted to the opposite sex (pic related) and the fandom will still ship them. does it really matter what fandoms do? people write incest fanfiction and shit like that all the time

Every single character gets this treatment no matter their background, story… My husbando is a basically an incel whose entire character stems around being rejected by women and some twitter fujos still have meltdown if you imply anything other than him being crazy in love with the male protagonist of his story. I don't think it's worth getting upset over because it applies to every single character because of twitter, fandom culture, identity politics… It still hurts if you self ship to have people tell you your boy wouldn't love you back because he's "gay".

I tried thinking but I really can't remember any character that was popular for self-inserting but also turns out to be gay. The only time I've seen that a similiar reaction from fan boys is when Killua from HxH is interpreted to be gay for Gon, since he's also an edgy character popular with young male readers, because he's an assassin with lightning powers and shit. But it's not like he's canon gay and they're kids anyway.

Sexuality headcanons are not inherently tied to shipping though that’s the thing, the two can exist separately from each other and they do.

That's a weird amount of goalpost shifting. If you're talking about those "x character is a bisexual!!!" twitter bots then fair enough, it's cringe and I doubt anyone here disagrees. But it falls under the scope of general woke virtue signalling nonsense created to get a reaction out of r/TumblrInAction posters while it's pretty obvious this thread is about people being assblasted over ships in particular. It's no use acting as if ships aren't a way to assign a headcanoned sexuality on a character seeing how a heterosexual one probably wouldn't be romantically invested in a same-sex relationship so all this talk about "I'm not mad about ships I'm just mad about gaywashing!!!" thing sounds like a contradiction.

I know the western Fire Emblem fandom is cancer, but I always laughed when soft WLW types tried to claim Faye could just be a "comphet lesbian" or whatever. I love femslash and all for that kind of thing, but Faye is a very one-note character and her personality revolves around a guy. There are so many other characters you can pretend are lesbian/bi if you want girl/girl shipping so bad. Then again, a lot of girls on Tumblr pretend to be lesbians while obsessing over guys, so maybe she's the perfect character for them to project onto.

Literally almost all the girls ger kidnapped and need to be saved and this OC donut steel made specifically for the remake literally just exists to metaphorically suck Alm's dick and nothing else (and it's only metaphorical because she keeps getting friendzoned over and over again).

I liked the game as something to play with my brain turned off, but I don't take it seriously because it's clearly written decades ago and not much changed in the remake. I can tolerate Faye as a unit, but she's such a garbage character that not even pretending she's secretly a lesbian or bi will save her, it's actually insulting to lesbians lmao. Nothing more gay than a girl whose entire personality satellites over a guy, right? Like I said I do tend to enjoy femslash content but some (most, even) characters are not suited for it. Some people are just straight. Western FEfags tend to be super hypocritical about what content is "acceptable" anyway.

I actually have been told by people who actually played Gaiden that Echoes is even worth in terms of story and female character. Celica is Gaiden is pretty much normal and needs to be saved from Alm once because her army is too weak against the ugly cult giy whose name I forgot, but in Echoes she willingly follows the cult guy's instruction like a dumb bitch AND she gets a brand new big brother who saves her even before that. Gaiden is a very simple story, Echoes is more detailed but the new stuff makes the story stupid instead of simple. I think the whole "Faye is comphet wlw" headcanon is because the fans saw her act like a weirdo and were so creeped out in their subconscious they tried to find a good, plausible reason for her behavior and that's the only thing they could come up with. I'm giving them too much credit but let me.

No. 204227

>>204223
No, you're right, I used to follow some corny "WLWs" who did that, and they did see it as a way to salvage her character. And I'm all for that, but it personally doesn't make sense to me. I'd be more able to believe someone like Sonya is lesbian/bi since she's one of the few women in the game that doesn't end up married with a million kids, I'd rather Faye either be written out of the picture since she's a tumor on the cast or at least be a woman with a backbone instead of making sexuality her personality in a different way (changing it from "Alm" to "lesbian" isn't an improvement).

Michael and Trevor from Grand Theft Auto V were absolutely ruined by tumblr and twitter. Trevor has his LifeInvader (in-game satirising of FaceBook) relationship status set to "any hole is a goal" and is heavily hinted to have sexually assaulted a male character and only seems to use his attraction towards men as a threat, or to wind them up. Michael has a wife and is spoke about as a serial womaniser and his therapist even implies a sex addiction with hookers. They canonically try to kill each other but oh, Michael said "fuck you" to which Trevor replied "I think that's what you want to do" so it's totes canon. Rockstar posted some fanart to their FaceBook back in 2014ish that had Michael and Trevor kissing (it was a collage) and fans literally said that proves it's canon. To this day I can't work out the logic behind that, the closest you get to "confirmation" is that an actual artist for Rockstar entered an art competition and drew a guy who looked an awful lot like Trevor getting a blowjob from a guy who looked an awful lot like Michael. But still, it's not exactly hard evidence, just some fujo employee taking a little artistic liberty for her own personal work.

I don't even need to look at the OP to know that a teenager wrote this post. "Queerness" was not a social contagion in the eighties like it is now. Back then, when gay people formed social clusters, it was because they moved somewhere with more of a gay community. People came out and then formed friend groups with other gay people. These days, it's stylish to be ~kweer~ so when one teenage girl does it, so do all of her friends. People didn't do this in the eighties because being gay wasn't a fun fashion statement, it was dangerous. Robin and Will are probably the only gay people at their high school because they're closeted in a hick town in the eighties. That's not "bad representation," it's a realistic portrayal of the social conditions at the time. Also teenage trannies weren't a thing back then period.

Steddie and Byler shippers are the most toxic, obnoxious little brats, I swear. If you don't ship the same garbage they do and want it to be canon, you're "problematic." They're all exactly the same teenage Aidens who flit between fandoms shipping the most popular gay ship in each, lecturing everyone else for being offensive. I say this as someone who ships gay shit myself (Harringrove is my own OTP, but I never had delusions of it being canon.) They're the same shitheads running around in the OFMD and Amphibia fandoms, which I'm thankfully not part of.

Someone please get these "ackshually it IS realistic to have literally everyone be gay" brats off the internet and on some grass. God I hate Aidens.

The legbutt politics and "representation" obsession have done so much damage to fujo communities for real. What happened to just enjoying character dynamics and having ship wars based on those instead of all this virtue signalling pissing contest over which pairing is "better representation"?

I think it has mostly to do with the fujo-on-fujo infighting that went down in the mid 2010's. It suddenly became fetishistic and bigoted to like two guys together or have a preference for m/m at all, so girls either had to troon out and "become" gay men or couch their desire to see to dudes fuck in "just wanting good LGBTQIA+ representation!". You can't say you just want ManA and ManB to get together because you think it's cute/hot/like their dynamic anymore without being labeled as some kind of Westboro Baptist-tier bigot.

There is no straight explanation for that ending, anon.
