CommissarMega posted:You don't have to 'mean' anything, nor do I think you consciously meant anything, but referring to peoples' sexuality as a 'gimmick' is kind of gross, dude. You could have said :facepalm: i wasnt referring to sexuality as a gimmick, i was referring to a type of manga, which includes the entire broadband of sexualities! I know there's bl stuff too but its been far eclipsed by girls love, and besides theres burrito's wonderful BL thread. And ally posing is straight, cis people try to say whats queer or not, im pretty sure

Aurora posted:you could also just apologize for your choice of words ??? I didn't -make- you misunderstand me. I'm sorry if you have some trauma in your past that causes you to react to things beyond what other people expect, believe me I get that whole-heartedly. And I'm sorry if it caused some pain for you. But I don't have control over your brain so ultimately how you respond to things is entirely under your own control. Ultimately I was commenting on the lack of het trans stuff that I could find, and qualifying that with my own observations about this thread. That's it. Assuming 'gimmick' is a remark on you (in the broad sense here) is an overreaction, and honestly I have no idea what calling lesbian sexuality a 'gimmick' is supposed to mean, anyways. Could y'all please tell me where your minds are going there? Recs would be nice, but people have asked in the past and nothing has really come of it, unfortunately :/

Xun posted:ooo is this a "im sorry you're offended" non apology in the wild?! If you wish to interpret that way, that's your prerogative. Certainly not what I meant, but whatever. You do you. To me, intention is everything and if you believe differently thats just a philosophical difference; it's just the way I am. Y'all are admitting I didn't mean anything by it anyways so demanding an additional apology seems a bit egotistical to me, but again that's just my interpretation. I have apologized for it, and again, I will take responsibility for what I do, not what you (the general you) do. skaianDestiny posted:You do know what gimmick means right? And how it's usually applied in a derogatory fashion? And certainly it's kinda funny that people are resorting to citing one particular meaning of gimmick as if its the only meaning and the end all be all, and ignoring the fact that I was using an informal (if apparently incorrect) definition for it. I have certainly never seen it used in a derogatory fashion which is why I was asking about it! I did in fact apologize for using the word, and I'm certainly not asking for an apology from anyone, so chill out and quit hyperbolizing. And tbh im laughing at the whole "I'm going to withhold the stories I know because of how you're reacting". Oh no!  And wark, I already follow the BL and shoujo threads; I even mentioned burrito's wonderful thread (And yes, it doesn't get nearly enough love)  Also look, I'm not looking for a fight here, nor am I trying to insult everyone but insulting me isn't a good look, and I admit I'm getting defensive here. And people are being over-sensitive. They took what I said out of context and reacted to what they were -imagining- I was saying, rather than ask me what I meant behind my choice of words. It takes two to tango, so acting like their actions are immaterial is what I mean by egotistical.Cuntellectual posted:I don't think intent entirely matters, like how would you feel if someone asked if there were any good tranny manga?  Contrary to what you say it does! If they used that word to hurt then gently caress them but if it was out of ignorance then so long as they understand what the problem was and change their behavior that's perfectly fine to me. Here's my final bit: I am sorry people felt hurt, but I definitely didn't intend it to nor do I still understand how people got offended. Again, like I said I was saying the threads gimmick (as in what it is about) is more on the yuri side of thing, which is no problem at all; I love most of the stories posted here (the hornier stories aren't really my jam). Parsing that as saying lesbians are gimmicks is very very  , and while I'm pretty sure it isn't really the case it kinda makes me think people are looking for things to get mad at. I don't understand it, but I don't understand people in general so its a wash lol.If you want to respond, please pm me, we've all poo poo up this thread enough as it is. Anyways I'm gonna go play some FF14 so peace y'all (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Homora Gaykemi posted:i was pretty bad in ignoring why people were upset with Daiquiri just to jump in on something else with my post yesterday and i understand entirely why people are upset with them because their words really are bad and play into a lot of homophobic and misogynistic ideas even if they didn't mean them that way. i want to apologise for my part in being lovely and dismissive yesterday. i'm sorry. I'd PM you but you don't have them so..  (BTW if you check my profile you'll see it says I'm a woman, so she pronouns are good) I'm still not clear on just how saying that this thread tends towards yuri is 'bad' and can be interpreted as homophobic or misogynistic? Same with the word gimmick. Have people been called gimmicks in the past? What does that even mean? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills here. Speaking of Still Sick, has that been dropped because it got an english release? It's been 3 months

Endorph posted:A 'gimmick' implies something false or performative. Someone's sexuality being a 'gimmick' is therefore implying it is false or performative. People did not appreciate having things they sincerely enjoy, because of their real lived experiences, be referred to as a 'gimmick.' Saying this thread trends towards yuri isn't the problem. Ok, thank you. I have not heard that particular definition before which like I saw before is only one definition of many; all I have ever known gimmick to mean is a thing something is known for. I enjoy yuri, and I certainly never referred to it as something false or performative. That's stupid. Also, can we -please- keep this to PMs in the future? We've shat up this thread enough as it is. Also I've only ever been travelling sideways

Julias posted:Can I ask all of you to stop stiring up this dumb drama and move on? Instead of hurling insults and wishing awful things to befall each other? This goes for you too Watermelon Daiquiri, you got really defensive and instead of apologizing you have doubled and even tripled down on everyone else being in the wrong, even when you've come around to understand why people felt hurt by the things you've said. That's what I already tried asking them, Julias, and I am trying to move on. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

I'm going to take that seriously because its a fascinating subject, albeit no where near even tangential to this thread (ok maybe music mangas might mention it somewhere idk) Pink noise is where the power spectral density (density being of course a value per other value like mass density) is inversely proportional to the frequency. This part is cool: In the past quarter century, pink noise has been discovered in the statistical fluctuations of an extraordinarily diverse number of physical and biological systems (Press, 1978;[7] see articles in Handel & Chung, 1993,[8] and references therein). Examples of its occurrence include fluctuations in tide and river heights, quasar light emissions, heart beat, firings of single neurons, and resistivity in solid-state electronics resulting in flicker noise. General 1/f α noises occur in many physical, biological and economic systems, and some researchers describe them as being ubiquitous.[9] In physical systems, they are present in some meteorological data series, the electromagnetic radiation output of some astronomical bodies. In biological systems, they are present in, for example, heart beat rhythms, neural activity, and the statistics of DNA sequences, as a generalized pattern.[10] In financial systems, they are often referred to as a long-term memory effect[specify]. An accessible introduction to the significance of pink noise is one given by Martin Gardner (1978) in his Scientific American column "Mathematical Games".[11] In this column, Gardner asked for the sense in which music imitates nature. Sounds in nature are not musical in that they tend to be either too repetitive (bird song, insect noises) or too chaotic (ocean surf, wind in trees, and so forth). The answer to this question was given in a statistical sense by Voss and Clarke (1975, 1978), who showed that pitch and loudness fluctuations in speech and music are pink noises.[12][13] So music is like tides not in terms of how tides sound, but in how tide heights vary. Pink noise describes the statistical structure of many natural images.[14] Recently, it has also been successfully applied to the modeling of mental states in psychology,[15] and used to explain stylistic variations in music from different cultures and historic periods.[16] Richard F. Voss and J. Clarke claim that almost all musical melodies, when each successive note is plotted on a scale of pitches, will tend towards a pink noise spectrum.[17] Similarly, a generally pink distribution pattern has been observed in film shot length by researcher James E. Cutting of Cornell University, in the study of 150 popular movies released from 1935 to 2005.[18] Pink noise has also been found to be endemic in human response. Gilden et al. (1995) found extremely pure examples of this noise in the time series formed upon iterated production of temporal and spatial intervals.[19] Later, Gilden (1997) and Gilden (2001) found that time series formed from reaction time measurement and from iterated two-alternative forced choice also produced pink noises.[20][21]

I just found an excellent heavy story about a gay boy struggling over reconciling his sexuality with Japanese society-- trying to 'act normal' and not hate himself for being gay-- as well as the disparity between the relative popularity of BL/GL/Yaoi/Yuri vs real life homosexuality. He loves the sex with his (much) older lover but he wants to seem like a 'normal' high school boy and get a girl friend. Obviously, he has difficulties in that aspect, and the angst is just so delicious. (The title in reference to a classmate buying some BL that he runs into. I think the implication is: due to his self disgust, he thinks she will hate him if she knows he is gay, unlike the gay people in BL stories) https://mangadex.org/title/34732/she-likes-homos-not-me This is a really good example of the self-hatred:  This is in response to mentally chewing someone out for blatant homophobia And his face here is just so wonderfully cold; I love it

I was more commenting on the fact that nothing but 'homo' was used than if being used at all. Like, there were many times where it would sound much better and less awkward to just use 'gay' rather than 'homo'.

Yes? What else is flirting but subtle horniness? Also if you'll remember I very specifically said I didn't remember what I was reacting to at first and only speculated that was the cause given my asexual nature and general adversion to most forms of relationship things.

It also has the mc say 'actually you should use gay instead of homo, but w/e' to his (girl)friend which kinda gives a justification for the constant. homo. use.
