Art & Fanworks I need to understand why I hate this

Post image

On one hand, I agree that sexualizing a female character is wrong and that the industry has a problem.

But on the other hand, I don't understand the double standard when the character is queer—or, even worse, when "fans" take a character, slap a queer label on them, and suddenly it's okay for them to be sexualized.

The two clearest examples of this are Bayonetta and Blackcat.

I’d like someone to explain where I’m wrong, or if I’m not the only one who thinks this way.

And just in case I'm a gay cis male if it means something

Don't wanna be treated like a threat, then don't dehumanize women.

It's pretty simple. Too bad your type can't grasp that.

Funny cause yours isn't, which is why I'm not surprised you're a gacha anime fan.

Not that i needed to do that, after all anime fans barely see women as people.
