It's more profitable to let them hide it on Patreon, slider.

These two exclude each other, you don't get customers by hiding your goods.
I think its Vampire Knight, avoid it because it's shit
As far as I'm aware, any 'important' corporation is incapable of acknowledging any media writer if their writing doesn't fit whatever political schema the company is pushing at the moment.
Black Bird, that's the protagonist and her love interest. They fall in love and live happily ever after in the end, OP is the love interest expressing his lust for the protagonist. Written by an adult woman who loves that sort of thing.
...
Reminder that Black Bird won an award in Japan because japs are in love of their culture so even if the plot is exploitative trash, the judges hoped the teen girls could learn a little about Japanese mythology while schlicking
All the positions for overly horny comics have been filled.
>exploitative trash
You mean dreamy, fulfilling romance.
Women having their schlick material of preference is important too.
But there's no comics in the US that cater to women like Japan has. SJW shit doesn't cater to women, you see how it failed.
I never said it was equitably filled
>mfw smut shoujo manga is trash and vanilla hentai for dudes is better🙁
Which means there's a void in the market, thus it's not filled.
Hentai for dudes does not satisfy me. Not romantic enough, the dude(s) don't care about the girl and are never loving enough, when hentai writers try to make a loving it's always too saccherine and bad and dull. Smut shoujo for life, that's the only hetero genre that hits all my right spots.
The US has these things in their culture called "expectations". This is bad for minorities, homosexuals, and women since, being historically oppressed groups, they are held to high expectations. They can't just make fun comics, they have to make important, CULTURALLY RELEVANT comics. Doing otherwise shames the sacrifices of their ancestors.
White men, on the other hand, are held to no expectations, so they can do whatever the fuck they want.
I am struggling to find an argument to refute this.
>White men are held to the expectation that they should repay the sins of the past
maybe? But not really, since rich people get out of that shit anyways.
Murican girls don’t want Shojo, they want dykes and yaoi.
yeah, that's why Twilight and 50 Shades sold like shit
So how do you propose we cater to this market?
>tfw Blavvk bird entered the top ten for best selling manga in the US during its print run in 2011
Shut up incels and sjws, let the ladies enjoy their comics in peace.
>not romantic enough
Gay or girl
Not that user but I think it's too late. Women were always viewed as an important market and they quickly got into the business despite Japanese bullshit while comics and cartoons have made immense efforts to create and maintain a boys club. The 2010s try to shake things but everything is so corrupted and broken than we got shit like Steven Universe.
>girl prefers genre for girls that caters to girls over a shitty genre for men that does nothing for her
Stop the presses!
>Not romantic enough, the dude(s) don't care about the girl and are never loving enough

Yes.
>Shit women in their 40s bought
Get with the times old man.
Teenage girls also really liked twilight.
And the fanfiction audience that propelled 50sog was also largely made of teenage girls.
So what you're saying is, women of all ages loved it.
hopefully not prepubescent girls
also #notallwomen
May I ask what exactly do you read. I'm assuming you read Black Bird?
Because basic storytelling isn’t really a thing in most American comics. Yea Forums saying that battle shonens are powerlevel trash is fucking hilarious when 90% percent of their industry is dedicated to it.
Try putting out a comic about an Obsolete Messiah whose only purpose in life has been for a full sacrifice of his life to find out just how much society runs on dunkin.
For smut and romance and masturbation aid material? Smut shoujo.
Because our women have the creative capacity of children,
I was referring to specifics. Titles that you enjoy.
>prepubescent girls
Those are children.
I was specifying little girls as opposed to little boys because we already know that little boys probably don't like twilight/50sog. And we already established that a disturbing amount of teenage girls did like them.
I'd rather not, my tastes are not up for your questioning. I asked you please respect the fact I don't need your opinion for what I enjoy, please do that and stick to the topic.
Prepubescent children tend not to be interested in smut and romance, yes. Sexual attraction is a thing that comes with puberty.
TMI
>I'd rather not, my tastes are not up for your questioning. I asked you please respect the fact I don't need your opinion for what I enjoy
After sharing this Also not samefag
Nip women are based though
That's why I said that little girls aren't likely to be interested in twilight let alone 50sog, thankfully.
though there are some really trashy parents out there and it wouldn't surprise me if some moms tried to introduce this shit to their kids.
Moms judging their teenage daughters old enough to read smutty romance novels is nothing new.
Keyword "teenager".
I was just curious.
Nobody is ever "just curious" on Yea Forums.
I feel like romance comics are a hugely untapped market in America. Even normal western girls like shoujo once they’re exposed to it.
I mean we already know how the plots would be.
>Cute girl with no personality gets treated like a piece of meat by a smug bastard until she falls for him and he reveals he’s actually kinda nice 5% of the time
I just wanted to read smut shoujo.
Please stop derailing the thread.
Are you that insecure about the mangas you read?
I tried getting into shoujo for the romance fluff, but every single one I read had some weird/disgusting pedo romance between a school girl and either her teacher or her 30 something uncle. Furuba, Gakuen Alice, Kodocha, Yona of the Dawn, etcetc. Even one of my favorites, Penguin Brothers, had that shit. So I've gone back to just reading western webcomics instead.
>Rich people get out of that shit
There's your answer user. They're rich who happened to be white. Black and privileged people get away with shit, too. Look at Jessey Smollette for an example.
Its even worse of they're the most privileged class in the world and complain about how oppressed they are. I.e. Upper-middle class white women
I disagree with the greentext, but regardless, what's funny is the US had a booming romance comics market in the immediate postwar period. It all went to shit with the implementation of the Comics Code in 1954, publishers of romance comics self-censored the content of their publications, making the stories bland and dull and boring women didn't care about them anymore. That's how US romance comics lost their readership and market.
I feel like history now is repeating itself with comics and sjws.
>not romantic enough
Stahp
An ideal male romance is meeting an attractive girl, fucking the shit out of her, and living happily ever after together
An ideal female romance is meeting an attractive & cool guy, getting miffed about his rudeness, going back and forth with increasing attachment, him opening up to you, then suddenly being a huge dick, then another girl gets involved and you compete for him, then he chooses you, then you bang, then misunderstanding and drama, then he admits he loves you, then you live happily ever after.
>when hentai writers try to make it loving it's always too saccherine and boring and bad and dull
>mfw Yea Forums have better shoujo manga discussion than Yea Forums
>but every single one I read had some weird/disgusting pedo romance between a school girl and either her teacher or her 30 something uncle
Like shounen, shoujo is filled with trash and finding a good one is like finding a needle in a haystack.
My favorite ones are Our Precious Conversations and Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun
Those aren't smut.
Not the insecure smut shoujo manga reading user and we started talking about shoujo in general.
The thread is specifically about smut shoujo though, please stick to the thread topic.
>what's funny is the US had a booming romance comics market in the immediate postwar period.
Any notable examples?
Wholly irrelevant because women don't read comic books.
...
t.Fat bald man
And it evolved to shoujo in general, autist.
en.wikipedia.org
BTW
>[G]irls simply outgrew romance comics ... [The content was] too tame for the more sophisticated, sexually liberated, women's libbers [who] were able to see nudity, strong sexual content, and life the way it really was in other media. Hand-holding and pining after the cute boy on the football team just didn't do it anymore, and the Comics Code wouldn't pass anything that truly resembled real-life relationships."
Sounds interesting, I'll have to check those out.
Romance is emotional smut. Not into porn.
No, you tried to derail it. This thread is about smut shoujo and why the US market does not cater to the women who want to read it, unlike Japan.
American women are making the stories they want to create...on the Internet. The modern female content creator has already realized that visual comics are a dying medium, reserved only for already established legacies (Marvel and DC), children's works, and the occasional runaway hit like Saga.
The internet offers much more freedom in terms of acceptable content and possible audiences, and this fact is true for all content creators.
Fuck type of shoujo are YOU reading, nigga?
I meant notable examples as in old titles pre-Comics Code.
>Romance is emotional smut
That makes no sense, smut is sexual content. No sex = not smut.
Nobody cares you're not into porn.
>No, you tried to derail it.
What? Did I say I don't want to name smut shoujo titles like a moron?! Also not the same 💢
Do your own research, nigger.
>on the Internet
But webcomics are 99% boring bland badly drawn ugly shit drawn by mentally ill tumblrinas with gender issues.
>Reee I'm trying to find recs for porn and you're ruining it for me reeee
You know you can always go browse /h you tard
This
Actually we're trying to find solutions to the lack of smut comics for women in the US market.
It's pretty damn common in Shoujo. Probably as common as a tournament arc is in a Shonen manga.
She reads the popular/most well known ones.
>come up with info about how USA used to have good romance comics
>doesn't give examples of titles
You're useless nigga
Just shut up if you got nothing relevant to say.
>we're
Fuck off user
>reading wikipedia links is hard
Holy shit you're retarded
>Just shut up if you got nothing relevant to say.
You
So? Do you think most shojo is actually well written? Because it sure as hell isn't.
The point is that women creators have more freedom to make what they want to make on the Internet, not on the print market.
It's almost as if women like it!
>Do you think most shojo is actually well written?
I think a comic is well written when it delivers to its readers, tumblrina comics don't do that which is why even on the internet they stay small and obscure.
Smut for women is slash fanfiction, harlequin novels, and shipping. There isn't a 1/1 equivalent for heterosexual male porn. If you want smut comics for women in the west, go ahead, but get ready for a lot of weeping cocks and two or more hot men angsting over each other.
In fairness primitive shoujo from the late Meiji era and early Showa era was very tame. Tame as in “male love interest only shows up at the last chapter for the dutiful confucian heroine to blush at and shyly look away from as he rescues her from peril”. No touching allowed. Even handholding.
Smut shoujo exists and it sells extremely well in the US and in Japan, your post is wrong.
Yeah, and that shit is boring, which is why what includes sex women find sexy is what sells and not the other crap.
Smut for women isn’t smut for men
For men it’s about immediate visceral gratification. Blowing the payload all at once.
For women it’s about building up sexual tension until it explodes in a storm of ecstasy.
For obvious reasons.
You know what else sells really well in Japan and America? Yaoi/Shonen-ai. Slash is fucking huge in female run fandom spaces.
Very true. But then consider demographics. What a 7 year old wants to read isn’t what a 17 year old wants to read.
Burger romance failed because although sexually mature girls all enjoy buildup. They feel blueballed with no actual payoff.
Like when you ghost a chick just as she’s becoming excited with you.
Amazingly enough the two women-oriented genres manage to coexist in Japan and cater both to their market.
It's only in the US that "hurr only my shit is allowed to exist".
7 year olds are children, we're talking about women here.
Honestly this. Hentai has gotten about as bland and stale as pornstars just going through the motions. Not to mention the studios putting out work are mostly shit. And of course none of them have any western release so they're all censored these days.
I think guys tend to not realize how important a romantic angle plays in this. Your Twilight and Twilight copycats play on female insecurity. The plain jane who the hunky, mysterious loner is drawn to. The one guy who's bad to everyone but this one special outcast. The dickbag with a secret heart of gold, etc. It's emotional foreplay.
there isn't really a void in the market, just a lot of false demand. You see this with a lot of demanded hypothetical products (especially things that would be aimed at a niche group of consumers, instead of the general populace).
You have to look at the revealed preference (what people actually buy/click), not merely what they say that they want. For instance, with coffee, most people say that they want a strong dark brew; but their revealed preference (what they actually buy, given multiple options), is that they really wanted a milky sugary brew. Women say that they want their razors to be as sharp as men's razors (which are usually the same exact blade, positioned at a more aggressive angle in the cartridge), but then, when women cut themselves shaving, they blame the razor and swear-off the brand forever; men blame themselves for the cut, and keep buying the same brand.
There are thousands of western NSFW comics by and/or for women. If they really had a near monopoly on this supposed vast demand, they would be extremely popular, as demand would greatly outstrip supply. Instead, they have middling success. It is the same for most "porn for women" in a visual medium (although porn in literary form, slash fanfiction, erotic novels, etc; are overwhelmingly female oriented).
The fascinating truth is, even though there is a lot of female-oriented porn that most women haven't seen yet; many women actually enjoy complaining about a supposed lack of female oriented porn, more than they like supporting porn creators by consuming female oriented porn. That is the revealed preference.
Kek. You reminded me of one hentai where a boy and girl see porn as kids, and grew up being discriminating critics of different porn until they decide nothing meets their artistic standards so they make their own together.
Bingo. Emotional rollercoasters are what make pussies wet. Guys tend not to grasp this because they only notice either the highest highs or the lowest lows and think the interest lies there and only there.
>western NSFW comics
The only western NSFW comic I ever saw with attractive art is Starfighter. Literally n = 1.
All the rest is ugly shit with ugly art. I can see why that shit is not having any success.
You need attractive art to attract readers. Manga gets this. When will the West learn?
But american romance comics after the Comics Code were still emotional rollercoasters, they just killed the sex.
American women ditched them because they were too boring.
I..are you trying to say slash is the only thing allowed in the US? Slash is heavily fanfiction centered. I can only think of one or two examples of a series pandering to a female audience with slash, and that's mostly queer baiting.
You want western shoujo porn, but that's not really what female western spaces tend to create.
>are you trying to say slash is the only thing allowed in the US?
I'm under the impression that's what you are trying to say. I am looking at the top ten selling manga for the US market in 2011, while it was being printed, Black Bird - a smutty shoujo manga - was right there.
>female western spaces
Those are riddled with sjws though, that try to shut down anything they don't like as soon as they get whiff of it. Look up the shitstorm they kicked up with any popular female-oriented title. My ideal is the Japanese market.
>My ideal is the Japanese market.

Hi tumblr.
This is the most successful yaoi webcomic in existence.
Not a coincidence fat western sjw gendershits hate it while the author, a woman, gets invited to Japan because the Japanese love it.
LONDON unless gay
Good thing you're in the minority then.
Keep telling yourself that.
Coin Flip: Heads
Bullshit. Women aren't making headway into professional comic industry because there aren't enough of them to put in the work. The term fujo exist for a reason, and that's because there are enough Japanese women nerdy(autistic) enough and dedicated(obsessed) enough to put in the huge amount of sacrifice and work into making good comics and animations. You don't get to where CLAMP is if you want to maintain a "work life balance".
US mentality is a plague at all levels, work life balance is also why american comics are ugly shit while anime is beautiful
>pretending most porn in existence isn't made for men, both straight and gay
Okay sweetie
Women that prefer porn for women and don't like porn for men are not a minority among women.
Western women usually stick to fanfiction
Anime is made by sweatshop workers and most of it is the same ugly bug eyed moe women in every series
manga/light novels is pretty much the same
Yeah it is, otherwise you'd see "porn for women" in equal amounts to porn for men.
Bless Hamletmachine, she's a diamond in a sea of shit.
I know exactly what you mean. I love hentai, but sometimes the stories are just to dumb or boring for me to even care, yeah the art can be 10/10 but jezzus are the characters dull. I understand the focus lie on the female in hentai, but would it kill them to not draw fat bastards or npc as the guys every god damn time.
Hentai tend to also dive right into business, which is perfectly fine. But for me to really enjoy and get into it, I need that build up, I want the teasing, I yearn for foreplay. Which smut tend to be better at presenting. Also not only are the girls cute but the guys are hot in smut manga, which is a win, plus the romance is really important for that extra spice.
That's why when I draw smut I want to present all these ingredients, the anatomy and detail you find in hentai, blend with romance, then throw in a cute female lead and hot guy who both have personalities into the mix and I present you my freshly baked comic, for all my like-minded degenerates to enjoy.
Porn for women is called yaoi, smut, shoujo, erotica.
>I need that build up, I want the teasing, I yearn for foreplay.
You want boring garbage
>Queer
>fat western sjw gendershits hate it
Huh?
>yaoi, smut, shoujo, erotica
All completely niche outside of Japan and certain parts of the internet. Even the dedicated yaoi board on a site as big as Yea Forums is slow as fuck compared to even hidden boards like /trash/
This really just boil down to personal taste. You call it boring garbage, but I like it! :D
then, if the demand is real among nearly half of the population, and not just something that you and a few others like a lot; the Starfighter artist should be flooded with high-dollar-value commission requests, and enough patreon bux to hire a team of assistants for her next comic.
I think, one of the reasons there isn't more porn for women, is the reluctance of women to pay for it. Whereas, I see the most ridiculous, most uncommon fetishes, have lots of art. I assume it's due to a handful of mentally ill men, with bizarre sexual urges, and no financial self-restraint.
If the demand for female-oriented smut is as large as some say, it obviously isn't being expressed in ways that create a market for it. It's not like smut artist hate women more than they love money.
It falls to basic yaoi tropes, seme/uke, questionable consent to sex, usual stuff
It's not queer at all, it's a woman writing out her "no means yes" sexual fantasies between two men. Dark dude seemingly forces sex on Blond dude in the first chapter, turns out Blond loved it and the story unfolds. Appeals to straight women, offends woke tumblr genderqueers who really like to use the word "problematic".
Souce?
I remember when women would try to strike up a conversation on /y/ about their favorite yaoi manga and anons would bitch and hiss the thread into 404 because they didn't like hearing people like Junjou Romantica.
/y/ is slow because all the women have left long ago.
[Area] claims to be female, and her NSFW comics have the pacing of something that I think a female author/artist likely devised.
sauce?
>Starfighter artist should be flooded with high-dollar-value commission requests
graphtreon.com
28th in the Adult Comics rank, Earnings per month not published but Graphtreon guesses $3K - $8K per month. That's not bad money at all.
>hire a team of assistants for her next comic
I don't think she's interested. She likes to curate her comics herself, I would guess she's the type that prefers to work alone. She's already working on her next comics.
>anime looks good; all anime looks the same
>comics looks like garbage; all comics looks the same
>anime bad: comics good
This is your brain on progressivism.
More people like HamletMachine creating content, less tumblrinas throwing a shitfit when a girl likes (insert problematic title here)
Oh you sad faceblind moleman
It comes down to how so many western women hate tropes, specifically those tropes influences.
The story is fiction, it's meant to be self indulgent trash and appeal to those girls who have similar fantasies, but those fantasies dont work in real life, so their influence is problematic.
Take Labyrinth, it's made specifically as a fantasy for David Bowie fans, specifically young women, this is seen as problematic because the young girl is 15/16 and David Bowie was a grown man, the gap is seen as problematic despite many young women that age having that fantasy of David Bowie, because to western women it comes off as influencing underage girls to seek adult men.
Now the fantasy is totally safe, the young woman is safe, even rape fantasies are still 100% safe because the fantasy is a controlled situation, and the fantasy only becomes a problem to western women when it starts to influence those other young women in how they find men in their lives, those men arent controlled fantasy, but they may still seek out men based off those fantasies.
Stuff like Twilight or 50 Shades of Gray, controlled fantasy but only became controversial because of their popularity and influence, they arent good relationships to try and replicate, they are fantasy that cant work in real life.
Young women are stupid and easy to influence, so western women tread carefully on the subject of romance, tropes and self indulgence.
>unironically using the word problematic
Kill yourself and take your bullshit with you.
>western women tread carefully on the subject of romance, tropes and self indulgence
You mean sjws try to kill anything good and fun for men and women alike.
Sjws should all be killed. The porn ban was the best thing tumblr could do it to itself, the site commiting suicide was the chemio that cured the cancer.
I'm just stating how they view the subject matter
I think it's bullshit that self indulgent fantasy is so heavily guarded for western women BY western women, but it's not like I cant see where they're coming from.
Girls want men like Loki, but they shouldnt seek out men like Loki, but they still do.
>You mean sjws try to kill anything good and fun for men and women alike.
Pretty much.
If it has the chance of negatively influencing someone to doing something stupid, its seen as problematic and shunned.
Rather than teaching those people to not fall so deeply into fantasy to the point where it influences real world decision making, it's seen as better to destroy that fantasy before it becomes a problem.
What is the western female author equivalent of Kodomo no Jikan?
>:ponder emoji:
>it's not like I cant see where they're coming from
I am a woman user, I can't see where they're coming from because unlike them I am intelligent enough to tell reality from fiction.
What other girls do is not my problem, their stupidity is their problem and ultimately their responsibility. They should be taught to tell reality from fiction or they should shut up and fuck off. I don't accept being deprived of something I have no problem with just because other people are dumb and stupid and should have been aborted.
And this is why US comics are doomed to die while Japan thrives, because Japan doesn't listen to those oppressive retards who want to keep the iq low rather than educate the masses.
> says the words "doomed to die"
whelp, time to fucking kill myself. no hope left besides shitty webcomics.
The numbers are out there user.
>no hope left besides shitty webcomics
Not true. There's still manga.
I'm a woman too, user, and I know how stupid other women can be, and other womens stupidity should be our problem, but unfortunately it is, because their stupidity is in mass, and has influence.
Media is already pretty shit when it comes to anything aimed at women and it doesnt help when those women make it worse for the rest by going full retard over whatever new fantasy is gaining popularity.
Whether it be making a fool of themselves in public or actively seeking out dangerous men, they're influencing how media takes its steps in how it indulges womens fantasy, those stupid women are our problem.
>shouldn't be our problem*
>unfortunately it is
No it's not. Responsibility is individual.
>has influence
Pfft. Fuck that crap. Mock them, shame them, bully them into killing themselves like they should. Responsibility is still individual.
>those women make it worse for the rest by going full retard over whatever new fantasy is gaining popularity
No, fuck that crap too. Women who express their love for whatever are not doing anything wrong by expressing their love for what they love. That's what women in Japan do and it's not a problem to ANYONE. Women should be free to freak out over whatever they like as much as they want, and those who don't share the interest should be mature enough to shut up and fuck off to their own circles and leave the women alone to live and let live LIKE THE JAPANESE DO. Are the Japanese inherently superior? That's the impression I get with your retarded reasoning that women should be harmed and punished because "hurr I don't like that". Kill yourself if you don't like that, you won't be missed.
>making a fool of themselves in public
Nobody is making a fool of themselves in public by fangirling over whatever content that appeals to them. You should kill yourself for thinking so.
And the women who seek dangerous men do so because of shitty parenting and daddy issues, but amazingly those never "influence the media", huh? Kill yourself tumblr cunt.
What I get from this thread is we need to silence sjws for good and encourage talented women like Hamletmachine to create the comics THEY want, not the sales-tanking turboturds shitty sjws want.
There's more variety in comics than in manga. The last time manga had any variety in visual and storytelling was during their version of the Underground Comix movement, "gekiga".
Did they all go to /cgl/? That's the most roastie filled board now other than /soc/
>There's more variety in comics than in manga
Hahahahhahahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahhahahhahahahhahahahahahahahahahahah
OP is a tranny, I think.

You could do the opposite and read josei which is usually older OL type and teen boy.

How am I wrong
Some people in this thread have answered the fucking question: while manga in Japan is pretty mainstream and diverse, it's been fucking forever since actual comics (no other media properties based on comics) have mattered in the US.
The very niche you mentioned is taken up by romance novels for older women and YA novels that are really just romance novels for younger girls. Some have abandoned "official" books to just read and write a lot of horrible fucking fanfiction that is also just shitty romance novels and fap material.
Which is the thing, there's nothing wrong with horrible, stupid, incompetently done porn and smut. The Internet is full to the brim with garbage that's just great because it's just there to choke the chimp to. And that goes for women and girls who have plenty of that crap already, including importing really shitty yaoi bullshit that's the same as OP pic related which is the same as romance novels which is the same as fanfic. Tons of women pandering crap porn like there's a fuckton of male pandering crap porn around.
Is there a problem with retarded bullshit that's nothing but pandering to men or women needing to masturbate? Fuck no. Do I think there needs to be some movement to make more of it? Not really. US needs to stop being such fucking prudes but otherwise, there's no lack of shit or mediocre brainless porn for males and females alike floating around, Suzie is perfectly capable of googling a few words and spending the next decade doing nothing but fapping to homo Voltron pandering crap if she wants. The next step of "letting women create what they want" (which is already happening) is making more homo pandering crap extolling the beauty of effeminate crying men fucking while dealing with their feelingz and striking a blow for gay rights through porn of gay men, so there you go, your wish is coming true. Have fun.
>Do I think there needs to be some movement to make more of it? Not really.
So you want the US comic industry to die? Because what's being published right now is not selling and selling what the public likes is usually a good way to make money. It doesn't have to be the only thing you publish, but if you want a US comic industry to exist it's something you should definitely consider.
>The next step of "letting women create what they want" (which is already happening)
I can't agree with that. There's still sjws killing anything they don't like, even if a woman created it.
Why the fuck is this thread still going when it hasn't been Yea Forums related for hours and dozens of posts? Mods, would you kindly prune this shit?⚽
Starfighter is a webcomic by a western woman. How is that not Yea Forums related?
What do you mean?
Comics featuring dreamy homosexual twinks have never been more available.
>hurr one post mentioned comics so now this thread is Yea Forums related
They're written by men though. Faggots, if you will.
How sexist of you
>So you want the US comic industry to die?
No, but the US isn't Japan. Comics never flourished to that same degree in the US, and now, traditionally print shit has a fuckton of crap to contend with making the idea of that even happening seeming more unlikely than ever. Even if comics did nothing but pander starting tomorrow morning, how would they fare against video games, social media, and YouTube videos + endless FREE time wasting shit, not to even mention a billion tv streaming services you can watch on your phone? I won't pretend to know the answer but it's a little more complicated than just the content.
Oh god. Let me sperg on this for a moment. Labyrinth is not a sex fantasy of David Bowie. Labyrinth was a story about a teenage girl on the cusp of young adulthood coming to terms with this on her own terms. The ballroom scene specifically is set up to be sexual, foreboding, slightly menacing. Adults in masks and provocative clothing. Sarah's dress/makeup is overdone, not age appropriate. It's an adult world that's enticing, but it's too much, too fast. Jareth represents that sexual part of adulthood she is too young for. The junkyard is the childhood she's outgrown, a comforting, but static, memory. Something she needs to step away from. Jareth was never an endgame for Sarah.
Because of this, Brian Froud was dead set against the dance party ending. The only reason why it ends with a dance party is because Henson fought hard for it.
They can make what they want on the internet.
Businesses have no need nor obligation to give them special treatment nor appeal to them.
Epic bait. The average number of sexual partners in the US wouldn't be 7 if there were any expectations.
Diamonds and drugs
This is a pretty badass scene. Why won't women embrace comics that inspire real empowerment like this?
>the "camera" angle and zoom change between different frames
that's a big part of why it feels like seinen. of course there are exceptions, but female manganka are often pretty bad at a lot of the fundamentals of comic layouts. it's a characteristic of older shoujo manga to have ever frame on a page be a full or half body shot from the same angle.
Were it not for that busybody Wertham. Man was 1950s North America that fucked up?
Whats the source on that
Also do you have any recommendations
Feminists and queer mafia and academia and media and many other business interests want to control the narrative when it comes to women's bodies and thoughts and feelings.
Letting them have an actual voice that isn't manipulated by the aforementioned absolute scum is bad for business and bad for their ability to control and direct society.
>letting women
who the fuck is stopping them?
The patriarchy.
The patriarchy meaning other women and this vague enforced sense of helplessness and inability to do anything without being told they can by queers feminists media academia and business types.
That and they don't have too.
Society coddles them and men are forced to change things for them to make them for things for them as well.
It's the same answer as always. Comics are niche in the US, and porn/smutt comics even more so, why anyone would expect a large quantity of smutty comics is beyond me.
Still, if you know where to find them, and cheesy romance comics are on your radar, you know where to find them since the pool is so small around these parts that people pass around the same comics and artist over and over.
But smutty romance novels are still a thing and still are somewhat popular with women, and if you ever stopped by the book section of a Walmart you'll see an entire isle of nothing but, "Girl fucks Death." "Girl fucks Cowboy." "Girl Fucks broody college guy." "Girl wants to fuck businessman but he's married to his bitchy wife." "Girl fucks Highlander."
To be totally honest with you, it's just business. All those other people are only allowed to even say anything if it's either in business's best interests (in their opinion anyway) or if they're very wealthy/rich kids, and those groups mostly come from the wealthy.
It's not deep at all, and not sinister either. Just "we want even more money" and "we only care about our (rich) kids who should be able to do whatever the fuck they feel like doing." It's not neccesarily bad at all though, it's just pretty shallow and standard as fuck capitalism.
Disney wants PC "family friendly" G rated shit that appeals internationally and globally to as many worldwide demographics as possible because $$$$$. They're okay with gay stuff now? Guess why. It's because all the younger demographics (lifetime customers) of all the countries with money (except for Saudi Arabia) are cool with gay stuff and want to see it, yes this includes young Chinese, other Asians, etc. too. Young demos not okay with gay stuff are poor, from poor countries (Middle East or Africa, and the poorer, the less liberal even in many of those countries), they have no fucking money so big companies don't care what they want.
Also their stinking rich kids are gay, women, whatever. They have $$$$ and promote what they, the wealthy, want.
I'm not even saying these things are bad per se though. And it's not "da Jews" either. I'm saying you're just overthinking it. Outright SJW shit is the wealthy soapboxing a lot but the much more mundane and low key socially liberal shit: get used to it. People with money are at least outwardly socially liberal and PC and younger generations with cash mostly are genuinely much more socially liberal and secular than soon to be dead (obsolete) customers and penniless third world Islamic radical terrorists starving to death or blowing themselves and others up.
The whole thing is fucked up for lots of different reasons, but not the ones /pol/ thinks.
Definitely more than one post talking about Hamletmachine ITT.
Manga competes with all that yet it's doing great.

user...
Gays don't sell in any of those countries.
Not really
It doesn't even sell in this country without spending ungodly amounts of money on PR and constant nonstop gaslighting in every corner of media and in schools.
And women STILL can't sell an action movie no matter how hard they try. And they have been pushing need no man vaguely gay action bitch erstatzmale future debtslave for two generations now.
You are essentially trying to dress up what I said as a positive and failing at it.
Why?
Because you're wrong about a lot of stuff.
You still gotta let people know you're selling either to make a profit.
No because I've never heard of it so it doesn't sell or have any exposure.
The art says nothing to me and looking at that page I'm not interested in the plot or characters .
Disney has also been losing money like a gambling addict trying to appeal to woke genderqueers, while Twilight and 50 Shades of Grey made billions.
>The art says nothing to me
That's why there's dialogue. They're talking about ballet.
Young generation Chinese, Japanese, Indians, and South Koreans are mostly either pretty neutral, fine, or positive towards gay stuff. Some older groups still censor things there but even a Nightmare World like China actually has a policy against LGBT, the older generations just try to avoid saying anything about the subject altogether for now. A big part of it is no religious tradition that cares much and they have other bigger problems. Also remember China censors fucking everything like ghosts and straight kissing and crap Americans don't understand being censored.
Also plenty of women lead things do extremely well in those countries. Just not neccesarily the American capeshit you think is the be all and end all of women. Blonde American women are not the only important people in the world, which may suprise you!
Historically women have been drawn to written erotic works (in part because they aren't as visually oriented as men). The burgeoning romance comic market was snuffed out by the comics code so any women who would have liked a steamy romance comic only had romance books as an alternative. Romance novels now still make brisk business and sell well but they exist alongside a market of fan goods and original stories disseminated across platforms like AO3 and Wattpad. These are women and girls who are already used to consuming eroticized content in novel form because that is what the paper book business sells. They're not used to consuming smutty comics by comparison and are less incentivized to make their own.
Regardless at the end of the day its a lot easier and faster to write your own smutty fanfic stories than it is to make a comic. Comics take a long time to make, the female market isn't accustomed to it, and most don't have the skills to make something good. Japan has much better art education in lower grade levels than in the US and thus are often better skilled at younger ages than their American counterparts. When people say there aren't smut comics for women because women won't pay for smut that's untrue, smutty romance novels are best sellers and people totally pay for smutty fanfiction. I'm less confident in saying that women will pay to support female pornographic comic creators because it takes more time to create less content and the audience might be overly used to the 'value' of novel formats.
Definitely something to be said for this too. It sucks but its true. Women can't just make fun stuff about flawed people. As someone who knows a fair amount of aspiring female creators (and I'm female myself) its annoying as shit. Its moralizing from another angle, I hope in the future there is enough space for shitty problematic slash and uplifting stories about women with good life lessons and all sorts of interesting stuff in between.
Women are too busy fighting the patriarchy to make good comics.♨️
The dialogue says nothing to me either, the page layout does not impress me or stick out in any way, it's all pretty forgettable. Plus I don't care about ballet.
You know what, can someone point me towards some western romance comics that were sabotaged by the SJW/Feminist/Gay mafia?
Because right now I"m with, , user. No one's stopping anyone from creating these kinds of comics, it's just few people are actually capable of actually doing so or even want to since comics are seen as kid shit. Even so, mobile games like Choices and Episodes are full with I guess interactive romance visual novel stories that are popular.
>The dialogue says nothing to me because I don't know what en pointe means
Well duh.
Whenever a popular porn manga for women (shoujo or yaoi) gets released on the western market though, women love it and have no problem buying it.
I know what it means. I don't care. It's not a topic I am interested in.
If you don't hide that your selling drugs you cam lose your job, selling your ass in prison instead.
Gay as a fetish is only cool in those countries. Even then it's something they are mostly ashamed of.
The ones who enshrine homosex almost always have decaying societies with negative birth rates and a huge upcoming conservative backlash brewing.
LGBT does not sell in a major way.
As for "women lead things and do extremely well".
Not the kind of women that are pushed in america. Ass ugly, androgynous, or just unbelievably gay or whorish chicks doing a bad job of being male while hating men is the norm here.
Actual feminine characters are considered evil and triggering. Also straight up action heroines do not sell at all. Not really.
>this comic is about a topic I'm not interested in, therefore it's bad
You should've just said so from the get-go.
Oh yeah, I forgot the part where the Disney corporation has no power or money while those women authors have bought up companies and services all around the world and control fucking everything.
I don't even like Disney as a company, but come on. And fuck, whether it's stupid or not, those authors sure as fuck sold those stories as being about "female empowerment" (because "taking control of their sexuality" or some shit and "alternative special lifestyle empowerment") and "diversity." It's just bullshit most of the time, but it's just not the money loser you want it to be to have "international" or female or gay characters or whatever the fuck in something. Most people just don't care at all and others mildly think "oh while isn't that nice" while it will be a buying point for others. Sorry to dissapoint.
So the other dude basically doesn't want to admit that good western romance comics don't exist.
>Women can't just make fun stuff about flawed people.
Yes, yes they can.
They sometimes are way to brainfucked by academia and media to make it good without injecting some really fucked ideals about the world that they were poisoned with.
You would rather believe that women are 100% incapable of doing it or are lazy or are stupid and incapable then even entertain the thought that women are prevented from doing it by your masters/group you are a part of.
Ask the average female author in the west what she has to go through and what she's called if she wants to make a simple A-B heterosexual no homosex/questioning or any other stuff romance comic for girls.
It will disgust and upset you.
I don't know any female authors, can you tell me what they get called?
Starfighter! Sjws went on a media hate campaign when Hamletmachine refused to bend to their screeching that her comic features rape. The author of 50 Shades complained about harassment by femminists too for disagreeing with them on there being anything non-consensual about her characters. And of course they love to harass the fans too.
You have not said a single solitary thing user.
Disney spends more money then god on pushing homosex and easily manipulated and sold too ersatzmale women who dont' need no man or children.
And neither of them are popular in the least.
But they keep pushing it because they are going to bruteforce this narrative and gaslight/brainwash as many dumb people as humanly possible.
If you don't tell your customers you're selling drugs you end up with unsold goods and Pablo kills you.
Lot of bad names.
Mostly homophobe, sell out, etc etc. It's not good.
We have female creatives around here who had to bend their knee to the wants of the loud and violent minority of creepers or they'd have their livleyhood destroyed by them.
>homophobe, sell out
Oh no! Those are the worst words there are!
You disappoint me, I thought it was some neat death threats or something.
Have you SEEN the YA Community lately? It's full of "STOP WRITING WHAT I DON'T LIKE"
vulture.com
If that's the case then it seems like its less a matter of demand than supply. There just aren't enough people with the skills or inclination.
I'm not saying women are incapable just that they get hounded by keyboard activists for not presenting the right themes or morals.
You asked why women don't care for that boring shit. You got an answer. Plus no, it's not just the topic, the page says nothing and the art is unappeling too.
What you're saying was true a few decades ago, not now, but even then, there's a huge difference between being okay with gay people in real life and make believe worlds. People who would be upset to learn their son is gay can be fine watching some imaginary story with lesbian Magical Girls. And you're just talking about imaginary stories.
Also, birthrates just naturally decline once countries start doing well economically and especially with decent technological achievements and medicine. That's mostly because you don't have to have a dozen kids in the hope that three or four might make it to adulthood without dying, you don't have to literally make your own grunt menial substinence farmers to work your shitty little plot of land, and you don't need to make a kid or two just to take care of you when you're enfeebled impoverished elderly.
If you want to live the way you seem to want to, you really can go to the poorest and most war torn part of the ME or Africa and get everything you want from life, though, as long as they stay backwards technologically with no innovation or power.
I remember the series called Stargate something or other.
It was about these retards trapped in a star ship that was going fuck knows where in space.
They had these things that would allow them to talk to people on earth by going into the body of another person.
The captain of the ship used it to talk too and then subsequently fuck his slut wife...while he was in the body of another man. Men because he did it multiple times.
RAPE. PURE GODDAMNED RAPE.
No one said anything.
The feminist got wind that the ships raging business suit power dyke was going to be taken over by a sweet crippled doctor who was going to fall for the asshole scientist and have some of that nasty ass ebul heterosexual sexual sex.
DYKES LOST THEIR GODDAMNED MINDS
Entire ep was scraped.
However later on said ship dyke used the body of a non consenting unaware female soldier to fuck her girlfriend back on earth.
Those same feminist dykes were as quiet as church mice.
Oh and these same people will defend that one infamous rape scene from the vagina monologues to the death.
Allowing those people to open their fucking mouth and sway any opinion is the biggest fuck up american and western women have ever done. And you bitches better wake the fuck up.
Yes. They are.
They aren't like us. They don't have thick skin.
That is painful to those women and those words carry actual real world weight.
I think there are plenty people with the skills and inclination, but they get discouraged when they see even those who make it big get shit-flinged and accused of bullshit like "romanticizing rape" and whatever other idiotic bullshit feminists say to oppress women.
>they get hounded by keyboard activists

Sjws should be killed.
With every piece of popular media, you have a group of people who'll go against it because it's in the spotlight. Is it right? No. But it's pretty normal for popular shit, it comes with the territory.
May as well talking about how screeching Christians tried to ruin Harry Potter for everyone. There's always going to be a loud minority of people talking shit.
The more I read this thread, the more I'm beginning to realise that feminists are FULL OF SHIT when they say that world would be a better world if everyone's a feminist because no women would ever be mistreated for being a women ever again.
user, what fucking fantasy world do you live in?
We are below replacement level in every first and most second world nations on the earth.
It will just be old people and a handful of young taking care of them now.
It's mostly radiowaves, chemicals, and lastly and most devastatingly social reasons for this.
We have people right now who are paid to float the idea that having a healthy good family meeting members of the opposite sex and having children and a big happy family is somehow evil and bad and not good on every level. It's true.
Lastly gays aren't begrudgingly accepted because the lie that gays are born is the norm and they are hiding the fact that children can be and are being indoctrinated by media and academia and creepers IRL and online into homosex. And they are completely incapable of defending themselves from it and even talking about it or bringing it up and talking about it is forbidden.
>You would rather believe that women are 100% incapable of doing it or are lazy or are stupid and incapable then even entertain the thought that women are prevented from doing it by your masters/group you are a part of.
That wasn't anywhere close to what I said, what is it with you and these fucking exaggerations?
That's what they do with series for men. With stuff by women for women, they do the same. They hate women and straight female sexuality.
We won't have to. The Muslims they coddle to will do that. (And I don't say this because I hate Muslims, but they seem to have a knack for letting in the ones who come from countries that shit all over their values in to stay. It's like they WANT something bad to happen.)
But harry potter was still made and still makes money.
Those small embers of female made and lead media are being stomped out not by some magical MRA opposition. But by the very people who claim to want to speak for and stand up for women.
Starfighter(according to the artist patreon and her almost 1000 patrons) and 3 books + 3 movies of 50 Shades is also still making/made money.
If gaming and comics ever reach to THAT kind of level, then it's time to quit.
Nobody takes christians seriously when they talk about Satan though.
People sadly do take fat problem glasses dykes seriously when they bitch about a straight woman writing out her sexual fantasies about handsome powerful men. It's the same mistake that brought on the comics code.
That's what I meant about not having the inclination. That shit's discouraging. And you get shit flung at you for stuff much tamer than rape too. I'd understand disliking the content or being upset about being surprised by due to lack of trigger warnings, sure I'll concede that, but all sorts of significantly less out-there shit gets nitpicked and henpecked to death. That's not even touching the really far out stuff (like Mpreg) or the stuff that is arguably even more taboo (like shota).
The SJWs do think they are acting in the best interests of others, and trying to influence the creation of more content they like. They're not capital E Evil but they are capital A Annoying. The realm of female led and owned media is where lots of current Feminist thought flounders because its built around a presumption of oppression. Mind you Feminist thought has always been fractious and its getting to be very overt now but neither regular SJW Liberal Feminism or the older/resurgent Radical Feminism have consistent, satisfactory positions on how female led, female oriented media should conduct itself or how fans should treat creators.
Imagine how much more money Starfighter would be making if it were being published by a big publishing company with more distribution and reach than the efforts of a single person.
>It will disgust and upset you.
No, it won't. They could self-publish.
Why should there be a trigger warning when there's no rape at all? The creator stated it's all consensual.
No, I don't care if you think it's rape. You are wrong.
But that's hard and scary!
Look user, I'll be honest with you here, this sounds like fucking crazy nu/pol/ (aka kiddie reddit) shit. The crap you're talking about where people had to pop put as many kids as possible and watch lots or even most of them die horribly while scrabbling to survive themselves and eventually sending heir little kids to work in the factory to try to keep the family going a little bit longer was a horrible nightmare and tragedy for everyone.
Today, thanks to advances and automation, it takes a very tiny sliver of the people it used to to produce the same goods, and this is speeding up exponentially. Meanwhile, the same advances can allow people to be productive into very advanced ages. The crisis coming is much more likely to be lack of jobs that pay very well (enough to actually live on, cost of living skyrocketing and cost of raising kids even further through the goddamn roof, so the job needs to be highly paid to be sustainable) than needing everyone to pop put dozens of poor low skilled kids, who to be frank, in the unfeeling sense of capitalism, are actually far worse than worthless. That's the very last thing anyone needs or wants.
That's what Hamletmachine does, but she's 1 in a million.
I don't know, user. I was working at a movie theater during the Twilight craze, and I remember a crazy truckload amount of young girls and women lining up to see every one of those movies opening week despite the backlash against it.
I agree. But are there even any big publishing companies that focus on distributing comics like it though?
this thread why /u/ is fucking boring and why /y/ is so meta
Huh? I mean in the event where a person starts reading something and then the story develops into something against expectation I get feeling miffed. You thought it was gonna be one thing and then its another. Its all about tagging your stuff properly. If I start reading something and then it turns out to be a weird fart fetish thing of course I'm gonna get upset, it should have been tagged properly. I likewise get why someone might feel miffed about a story suddenly throwing out rape or whatever when that wasn't the advertised content because not everyone likes that.
It's an erogenous zone and sexy as fuck.
Ah, so you're one of those people who're telling others about the horrors of overpopulation and how they should go gay and not have children and become good debt slaves and consumers till they die.
Your entire post reeks of that nonsense.
I want my ears licked and played with.
That's not an exaggeration.
Most women in their 50's grew up reading manga you stupid bitch.
You are quite litterally stating that women aren't doing it not because they are being shat on for even trying by other women and people who want to fully control the narrtive when it comes to women's thoughts feelings and sexuality.
But because they are fucking lazy and don't have the talent.
And the fact that you bring up those two android flash comics that heavily feature and push lesbianism.
Are you retarded?
Feminists fucking hate muslims.
The only people who claim that feminist like muslims are the controlled opposition and people who are trying to create a false narrative of feminists who are all for the horribly mistreated muslims.
Bur it's not rape. It's not advertised because it was never rape at all. If you start advertising it as rape, people would complain anyway because thecouple ends up happily in love with each other and that's not what the rape audience expects.
It's sex as the female author wants it. How do you tag that?
I can't actually tell what he's biting.
What the fuck? This isn't gay!
So how come SJWs of all stripes refuse to call them out? If they were Christians, they'd be more than willing to condemn them. See also: The incident in the UK where muslims protested against LGBT lessons in school.
Euphemisms like 'dark romance' 'rough' etc are used in other romance mediums, the opposite (like 'chaste') are also used. Might be a good convention to borrow and might entice roman novel readers who are new to romance comics who might be familiar with terms like that.
False narrative created by the CNN and MSNBC?
It's her shoulder. Her collar must be unbuttoned because her shirt is slipping down her arm.
"SJW" is a three letter word crafted by the alphabet agencies to destroy groups of dissidents that would become trouble.
Anyway, it's because those muslims will not put up with their shit and the state will not protect them.
Partially. Fox news is in on it too.
Doesn't work when you have sjws stomping their feet and reeeeeeing you're a RAPE APOLOGIST!!!1 for not agreeing it's rape.
No, it's created by Tumblr, (oddly enough, to call out social justice "activists" who don't really help out and are just looking to start fights. And yes, I'm aware that /pol/ abuses it on anyone who's remotely left leaning.
That being said, those left leaning tards are the ones who refuse to call out muslims and many of them are purpoted feminists. If they were Christians doing the complaining, then they'd get condemnation.
>this thread
Look, I think we're all losing focus on the real issue here; we need to dox and systematically rape and sexually enslave all girls on Yea Forums. They'd be happier living the sleeve life they've always wanted deep down, we'd have a better board discussion-wise, everyone wins.
None of that is correct user.
But I thought CNN, MSNBC, The Guardian and the BBC love feminists and hate comservstives. Why on earth woyld they want to create this false narrative that feminists love muslims then?
>But because they are fucking lazy and don't have the talent.
That wasn't anywhere close to what I said, what is it with you and these fucking exaggerations?
Can you do it to me too even if I'm not a girl?
There is a lot of ways to take that question.
Fact of the matter is that all the talentless pieces of shit in the industry should band together and make their own western version of Clamp.
>Kate Leth
>Babs Tarr
>Gail Simone
Things that could be raped and eaten by a pack of wolves and nothing of value would be lost.
The thing is though that they'd make the same shit they always do, blog posts disguised as comics where they just bitch and moan about whatever hurt their fefes in the news.
>Femininity
>Romance
Especially of a heterosexual accord between potentially two people of the same race.
Those things can not be tolerated.
They all feel like they need to send a message instead of trying to make entertainment for the sake of entertainment.
If any of them had a romance story in them they'd just turn it into a book so it could be appreciated as "real art" unlike a comicbook.
There should be a lot of women out there making comics about their disturbingly prevalent rape fantasies.
But you would get a lot of flack for it.
Alright, I'll bite. What's the truth then? I'm going to bet somehow you're going to blame /pol/ for muslims protesting against the LGBT classes. Or /pol/ somehoe engineered places like Vox and The Verge to write articles about how "Islam is a Feminist religion".
the only thing you deserve is a dick de-sleeving injury you dumbshit
>But are there even any big publishing companies that focus on distributing comics like it though?
Lack of diversity among big publishing companies and their market reach is another problem with western comics.
Faggot, no. Thot patrolling is not your designated fetish-in, this is about positive societal reform.
Batman sells, therefore make Batman. Why make something else? There's no market for it.
Islam is the only religion where women can have true equality. This is a real claim I have seen made.
Do you not type periods at the end of your sentences because it reminds of your cunt, and by extension yourself, failing its purpose monthly?
Manga publishing companies are winning because they sell Naruto, but also Sailor Moon, Junjou Romantica, Berserk and Food Wars. 5 titles, 5 different demographics, themes, and genres. 5 times the market.
DC only has Batman.
DONT LOOK SHIGEO!
Bringing up Food Wars, that show has fanservice of ALL kinds. Whether it'd be the female characters, the male characters, or the presentation of the food themselves.
DON'T LOOK!!!
Lol who the fuck reads any of those things, I've never even heard of any of them, cringe af
Women do their own comics all the time. The most best selling comic book writer right now does mostly kids books. A lot of women write web comics. Most of the popular and best selling authors for YA stuff are women. There’s a ton of high profile female movie directors and such. Fuck off with this bullshit Yea Forums vs Yea Forums crap and stick it up your ass, you cunt.
I like to save time
please never ever breed, I don't want your shit tier fetishes being passed on
There's barely a market for Batman.
Shut up, DC knows what its doing, they're cancelling books left and right and printing more Batman because Batman sells.
>Most women in their 50's grew up reading manga you stupid bitch.
Fucking what? Most people in their 50’s right now don’t even know what anime is. They see all animated shows as kid’s cartoons or weird shit for adults. Have you met ACTUAL 50 year old people? I have. There’s 4 of them in my family and NONE of them grew up with manga. They’ve never even heard of that shit until their kids forced them to buy some during the mid to late 2000’s, the only time where manga sales in the US actually competed against comic book sales in the US. Not many 50 year old people in general, in the US, give a rats ass about anime or manga. Get fucking real.
If you only count comics, sure. Batman, however, sells plenty in just about anything else.
The fuck are you blathering about you retard.
/pol/ has less then nothing to do with this.
It's a desperate attempt to bring islam into the west. To prevent bottom up war from occuring.
And it's not working.
Places like Yea Forums and across the net are seeing a massive memetic war going on and it's only getting worse. If the police and government actually stops the natives from defending themselves from foreigners and foreigners are given better treatement...
Then it's going to get bad.
Really really bad.
>Have you met ACTUAL 50 year old people?
Not that user but I know several people in their 60's who watch anime and know what it is. Maybe it's because we live in Europe though.
the fuck is this blathering? Why are you shitting up this thread with doomsday scenarios that have nothing to do with female oriented comics?
Millions around the world read them. Do you read manga?
user....50 year olds were in their early 20's back when manga and anime were very popular.
Stuff like speed racer and voltron were considered hip and cool back then.
You don't really understand how long manga and anime have been around in the west and how influential it's actually been across the board.
I think you should stop trying to desperately defend...whatever you're trying to defend now.
No I'm not a cringe weeb fuck off
>doomsday scenarios
This is not a doomsday scenario.
This is fact.
It's going on right now.
Even as we speak.
Even in this very thread.
You're on Yea Forums.
Last I checked this was 4channel, weeb. Take your animu child porn out of here, nobody cares. We read REAL comics like Immortal Hulk.
>Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun
Nozaki-kun is shounen in the guise of what a shounen reader thinks a shoujo is. It's serialized in the same online magazine as stuff like Nichibros and Watamote. I don't think that detracts at all from how great it is, but holding it up as "shoujo but good" isn't entirely accurate.
Well then they're retarded.
The neck/ears are more of an erogenous zone for a lot of women than nipples.
I use to be really into Shoujo way back then, but I got tired of the 300 chapters of lead up to the confession, kiss, the end, plot line that a lot of them followed.
Is that why the back of the neck is considered provocatively erotic in Japan?
>brunette with little to no personality
I'll give you vampire knight, maybe even fruits basket, but ohshc? haruhi's arguably one of the most unique harem protags, period
Why are you incapable of not making threads and posts like these?
Men hate women.
She's bland and boring.
Read Banana Fish. It's a shoujo about gay drug dealers in America.
Wtf is wrong with yona? That she wanted to marry her cousin? That was something that happened in the time period that fantasy was trying to sorta show. Plus that was not the main love interest for the comic, it is her childhood friend and bodyguard.
I'd much rather enslave the submissive boys on Yea Forums and dominate them while I coo over how cute they are, being sure to love the especially good boys tenderly. In my ideal world, men like you will be put in pastures to spend your days doing nothing but being prostate milked for semen over and over to the point of it being blindingly painful.
How do you fools still fall for tired East vs West bait?
Unironically kill yourself, you bland piece of shit.
I vote for this plan
>Banana Fish
I'll check it out, thanks user.
This.
I wish men would accept good shoujo oI the shoujo women like, Black Bird, Vampire Knight, Twilight, etc. What get women's hearts throbbing and women's pussies wet.
Not the boring crap beta incels keep trying to push on women.
What is the American equivalent of A Bride's Tale?
But that shit puts off just as many women, myself included.
Acting like there's a universality to women's tastes will always be retarded.
Market numbers tell a different story. It's Twilight and Vampire Knight that sold billions among women, not your obscure crap.
You further prove my point with your need to shit on everything popular among women, like you're a bitter and pissed sad cunt who hates women who like what you don't like even though those are the majority.
Based and redpilled
>in the unfeeling sense of capitalism, are actually far worse than worthless
>capitalism
You meant Corporatism user.
>tfw no Western femdom comics
And you had tons and tons of women vocally speaking out against Twilight and 50 Shades of Grey. The only bitterness I feel is that the popularity of these works give dumbass men like yourself the impression that literally all women want to be raped or submissive. Again, acting like there's a universality with women is retarded, we have no consistency with tastes. That's why you dumb shits fail at seducing us to the point of needing guidebooks and PUA.
Sad, but true
Sunstone, but it's girl-on-girl.
The only thing Twilight and 50 Shades tells us about women is that like men, they have their dark sides. The sooner everyone accepts their dark selves (Not "embrace". There's a difference), the sooner the world will be a better place.
Based and femdompilled.
>Good detailed art withot being a clusterfuck
>Literal shota fuck
None
Guido Crepax did a comic book adaptation of Venus in Furs.
Eric Stanton made a career out of femdom stories, too.
>like men, they have their dark sides
My dark side is seeing cute boys getting good dickings.
Yaoi is the beginning of awakening femdom among my fellow sisters. The more mainstream it gets, the more the rest of us will become redpilled to the glory of wrecking cute boys.
The problem is more that US women are garbage
>Twilight
Stephenie Meyer does for women what Michael Bay does for men – pander to stereotypes. Her work has no substance, and can only be enjoyed if you turn your brain off and don't think about it.
>dominant women actually exist
I don't believe you.
WOMEN DONT WANT TO SUBMIT AND BE DOMINATED BY MEN YOU DUMBASESS
Entire goddamend section of walmart drugstores libraries is littered with just that.
50 shades of grey twilight multimillion dollar cottage industry.
Multiple fucking women made and bought media in manga is just that.
Male made media has to have men who have the personality of men who end up in shlick porn have forced romances with girls who like said porn for sales
Yeah no.
You're totes right.
Let's demonize women for liking this but push shit like
This. As awesome.
Entire thing just sounds like sour grapes and women regurgitating something they've been taught to think and feel by a small cabal of scumbags who want to control what women think.
I exist, so there's that.
It’s a fantasy user, most people wouldn’t be able to handle a real world scenario of their deep dark fantasy.
L-London?
>WOMEN DONT WANT TO SUBMIT AND BE DOMINATED BY MEN YOU DUMBASESS
Thank you, glad we agree.
Because there is, in fact, manga other than shonen, hentai, and Junji Ito reprints?
>forgetting lesbians exist
Prove it. Name even ONE successful manga that isn't one of the above.
>calling Sunstone shit
Okay fuck you mate.
You still got millions upon millions of fanfiction written by women featuring men getting dominated left and right. Old pathetic women and underage girls who haven't discovered fanfiction getting wet over trash like 50 Shades isn't indicative of the entirety of half the human population.
you've spent too much time on lolcow
The few that immediately come to mind I can recomend are:
Over-Cumming writer's block.
Jump into my arms - A flamboyant beast.
I can't do this unless we're in love
The art is very nice, they are quit generous in sex scenes and fun characters.
There are a lot more out there, some real spicy stuff, to bad not much of it hasn't been translated and you need to be able to read moon runes.
Nah, I'm just so acquiescent in real life and full of restrained anger that I prefer to be in absolute control and dominant in the sack.
There really isn't, not in high amounts. With comics you at least have Image as a clear third party that's popular and doesn't publish much capeshit.
I can get behind that
Also, I don't like to be the object of lust. I want to make the guy feel pretty and lusted for.
You're just being argumentative for the hell of it.
What will happen if you accept this basic fact?
What will happen if you admit that women get moist at the thought of the big guy at work getting pissed and horny and taking her right then and there.
Multimillon dollar stories have been written with premises like that.
No money is being made on women dominating men. It isn't even making money in japan.
And Japan is full on "let your freak flag fly, nigga" when it comes to porn of all kinds.
That's your opinion dude. Many women don't agree.
I hope we all find cute subs
>The neck/ears are more of an erogenous zone for a lot of women than nipples.
This is so massively wrong that I'm convinced you're an alien or something
Didn't forget.
I just don't care that they exist.
No one really cares.
Every lesbian, bi girl, and girl who was groomed by the aforementioned two can all dissapear tomorrow and not a single fuck will be given by anyone.
This is probably the biggest appeal of femdom, that feeling of being desired that most women take for granted.
Spread the word, and convert your peers user. Theres hope for this planet yet
My nipples do nothing for me desu. I'm definitely not alone on that.
Men woke up and stopped watching Bay's films while women still saw all the Twilight movies.
>this thread
you've never kissed a woman's neck? Your lady is missing out wtf
Now you just sound legitimately crazy.
Keep insisting that all women can be easily boxed in one universal category, I guess, I'm sure that won't impeded on your romantic prospects at all.
Card Captor Sakura
It isn't. If you're a dude then I feel sorry for any woman you've come in contact with and if you're a girl, then I'm sorry you were shortchanged on the awesome instant arousal of getting your neck kissed and bitten.
I'm a woman and I don't agree.
Ps: yaoi is about a bigger stronger dominant male fucking a smaller weaker submissive male, and the submissive male exists to be a self-insert for women.
>I'm a woman
>spouts the "submissive men in yaoi are just self-inserts for women" meme that men insist on
Sure you are, man.
So it was child porn. Want to try again?
It's not a meme and it's women who say that, not men.
Indeed.
That either isn't successful enough to satisfy the user you're replying to, or he hasn't heard of it and therefore assumes that it isn't successful enough to count under his standards. Or he'll just move the goalposts. I don't think we can win here.
They do, but they end up creating shit like Squirrel Girl and that comic about how menstruation turns girls into werepumas or some shit.
>and the submissive male exists to be a self-insert for women
I've seen several women solidly argue against this theory over and over, but I guess nothing can dare to contradict your narrow world view.
user, I'm litterally making a distinction between women and lesbians.
Me stating that I do not give a single fuck about lesbians, bi chicks, an groomed straight girls and wouldn't care if they all disapeared does not affect my ability to get pussy.
At all.
And me not giving a fuck about women who are not into the norm for women doesn't change anything either.
Why in the fuck would you think that?
Do you think that I should care for women who fuck women and women into femdom? Cause I don't care for either of those women and really do not want to deal with them on any level.
It seems that you are the one who is boxing all women into one universal category.
>Nip women are based though
They sure are.
You're right, you can't win because I'm right. Manga is fucking marginal and you delusional weebs need to go outside every once in a while. Western comics get turned into major motion pictures all the time (Avengers, Tintin, V for Vendetta, Watchmen etc.) but when's the last time Hollywood tried to adapt a mango into a movie? Ghost in the Shell? Whoo boy did that fail.
So story time of America Chavez anyone?
Seriously though, you faggots really have become a tumblr infested hell hole.
Alita Battle Angel
Looks like cringe weebshit, what the fuck is with those eyes? Seek help.
>Cardcaptor Sakura
>child porn
What exactly do you think porn is, user?
modern BL has been moving away from this some years now
No they don't. Personally, I just like seeing the guy I'm most attracted to get fucked. There's a reason doujins and rule 34 literally focus on the guy character and the seme is more or less a sentient cock. I'm not getting off on imagining myself as the guy, I'm getting off on seeing the guy I like most get fucked. There's a reason who tops and who bottoms arguments have existed since the dawn of yaoi, it's a matter of girls wanting to see their favorite male character whom they're most attracted to get fucked. There probably is self-insertion for some, but that's definitely not the majority or easy answer like you make it seem.
You can make excuses for your sexualized toddlers all you want but it's illegal here and you need to get locked up before you graduate to real girls.
I myself argued against those sjws. They refused to understand why I, a straight woman, like Starfighter and not their boring "woke" crapcomics, and no, it's not rape to me because the uke is my self-insert and I want it. Cue hate and name-calling.
She looks like a middle aged bug eyed british dyke, fights like a man, and has a stand in dick sword.
What are you even trying to say at this point? You seem nuts.
>sexualized
I think this says more about you than it does about Cardcaptor Sakura
>No they don't
I do.
I like Starfighter because I like seeing the cute guy get fucked. There's no self-insertion there, frankly I think self-insertion is pathetic. So you deserved the namecalling desu, you pathetic whore.
That's because you're a dumb bitch.
...
At a certain point you realize that you can't actually argue with someone who simply wants to win an argument and protect their fragile world view.
So it's better to let them stew in their own ignorance and delusion and occasionally take potshots at them to see them over-react.
Why was that not marketed? What the fuck happened? What was the competition, how to milk your dragon? I didn't even see a commercial for a Cameron backed film despite it being a cyberpunk action-film with muh anime in it. Hell they even had reasons for the goddamned eyes from the comics if they'd thrown in the line.
I mean Girl comics are pretty popular over there. Just look up Josei and shojo. Isn’t inuyasha a girl oriented comic/show ?
Not that user but Bleach? Y'know that dead manga that didn't finish its anime because people stopped watching it during a canon arc that felt like pointless filler?
That got a live action JP movie. Anime is a great success bros
>ONII-CHAN AM I KAWAII UGUU LOOK AT MY PANTSU AND FONDLE MY UNDEVELOPED CHEST EHEHEHE
Yeah you can fuck right off with that.
I don't know what the fuck manga you're describing here, but it sure as hell isn't Cardcaptor Sakura
Good for you, but many others including me don't agree. You making an absolute statement that "yaoi is women self-inserting as the uke" is just absurd and invalidating other women. You then write off the women who don't agree with you as "sjws".
Accept that your preference does not represent all of us, sis.
They're ALL literally that.
It's no coincidence BL is no longer as popular as it was 10-15 years ago. There's no modern popular hit title like Junjou Romantica.
user, they fucked up alita for the most part. And my first manga was the first installment of battle angel alita.
That's definitely not CCS.
Though there is a heavily implied romance between a grown teacher and his 10 year old student so there is some pedophilia. But even then, it's entirely sterile and flowery because CLAMP loves that shit.
Then maybe you should stop using doujinshi porn sites for research
>it's not pedophilia bro
>I mean a teacher fucks a 10-year-old so there's pedophilia but...
Stopped reading right there, you just admitted I was right.
Because most fujos don't have to rely on mediocre shit like Junjou anymore and instead have discovered the joy that is yaoi fanworks created by other fujos for a pre-existing series.
I'm not too familiar with Alita but I know the feeling. I just like ripping on Bleach
First rule when attempting to argue with irrational weirdos: whatever you do, don't say anything they can use against you
To be fair, I'm not the guy you were originally arguing with, I just felt like jumping in.
Stop with your virtue bait
>proving my point
You not agreeing does not change reality for me and for all women who read yaoi because we like to fantasize about dominant men without other women in the way, and you're the one that does not accept your preference does not represent women at all, "sis".
I honestly forgot about the teacher-student romance thing, it was so irrelevant to the rest of the story.
I'm not making absolute statements about women (and men), unlike you. I've consistently said a lot of women don't agree, not "all". But you continue to insist all women think like this. So no, I'm not insisting my preference upon all women like you are, try again.
Junjou Romantica keeps selling like hot cakes everywhere it's printed, there's brand new merchandise selling on japanese sites right now. It's the other "modern" comics that are failing to attract readers and fans.
>I'm not making absolute statements about women
>Yaoi is the beginning of awakening femdom among my fellow sisters
Not only you are making such statements, they're retarded, too.
>It's the other "modern" comics that are failing to attract readers and fans.
Because, again, most fujos don't have to rely on mediocre shit like old yaoi anymore and instead have discovered the joy that is yaoi fanworks created by other fujos for a pre-existing series. You'd have to be foolish not to recognize this. Along with the growth of social media and readily available yaoi for a series they love, down goes the need for boring cliche yaoi that doesn't even show peen in most of it.
People could make whatever they want of whatever quality.
Take PIero for example. He writes his doujins about shit like the main character fuckin his sis to resolve the trauma and feelings they both have surrounding her previous rape, and he actually tries to make the characters display rich and visceral emotion in the 20 or so pages he's got. You're never going to get widespread public adoration for writing a doujinshi like that, but he stuck to it and continues to make them.
There's nothing holding people back from making shite if they actually wanted to. If authors say it's society holding them back and they're not in a country that would legally behead them for it, then you know they're just making excuses.
thanks user
Except that wasn't me. Try again.
>that wasn't me
>as if it should be obvious
I'm not the user you were arguing with btw, you wouldn't have been able to tell if I hadn't said so
Don't forget how most official yaoi has god awful art. Who needs that shit when I can look up gorgeous fanart of Shiro getting plowed by Keith?
Also if you're , you keep trying to argue against numbers when they show the vast majority of women is against you. I don't care how vocal shitty women like you get; sales numbers speak louder. The vast majority of women likes dominant men.
The increasing popularity of Bara among straight women kind of further muddles the self-insert theory. Unless straight women now fantasize about being big muscley men getting topped by bigger or smaller men.
The artstyle looks like Cuvie. Is it Cuvie?
user, fanworks already existed before. Junjou Romantica is still selling lots while fanworks exist. It's your tumblr comics that are not selling.
>The increasing popularity of Bara
Where?
>user, fanworks already existed before
Nowhere near on this easily accessible scale, never mind how much more well known yaoi in general has gotten over the years. Also, what the fuck does tumblr have to do with anything?
You are either a troll or brain-dead
That user brought up millions of fiction and fanart of men getting dominated that are created by women as a counterargument to your assertion that mainstream numbers = absolutes. Then some other chick (who I'm starting to suspect is you) came in and said "that's because all women self-insert as the uke, it proves nothing". To which I argued against that, still not using absolutes. I get it, you want to label all women because it's easier to not look at us as individual beings with individual tastes, but come on. You just sound sad at this point, like this one thing matters to you more than anything. Grow up and acknowledge that not all women are the same already.
In general fandom culture? You do know the MCU fandom exists, right?
>Nowhere near on this easily accessible scale
It was more accessible before actually, before sjws starter pushing for censoring and suppressing anything they don't like.
Not that it's a problem for Junjou since it's still a best seller today.
Millions of fanworks are created by women as a means of self-insert to get off. Have you tried asking the creators and fans without rabidly attacking them for giving the wrong answer?
You sound like someone who has never set foot on Twitter, Lofter, or Pixiv. Tumblr is hardly a good source for yaoi. For one thing, it's western shit. These sjw boogeymen don't affect shit among eastern artists.
That's not bara.
Twitter and pixiv are full of women artists who gush over dominant men and don't care for femdom shit but want dominant men.
Yes. Some say they do self-insert, some say they just like seeing the character they're most attracted to get off. It's almost like...women are varied in preferences. And you can't...use a universal statement on all of them or something.
And believe it or not, those women who apparently seem to have attacked you (causing you to develop some sort of complex by the looks of it) are just as valid in their opinions.
Right, that explains why semes in most fanworks get all the focus and the uke is just hardly present at all. Oh wait.
What the fuck does that have to do with anything I even said anyway?
>taking my obvious shitpost seriously
But millions of women like dominant men and don't care for femdom or submissive males except for self-inserts. You keep trying to invalidate them, but they are just as valid as you and they have the numbers unlike you.
You are in the wrong for attacking them on their tastes in the first place.
in the west bara refers to a body type
Anytime user.
Let's unite in our love for smut.
I remembered some more titles, btw.
My boyfriend's a love zombie - the plasure won't stop.
My secret with the girl next door.
The beast beneath the skirt.
My rental boyfriend's secret sadistic service.
Life with my roomie - he turn into a beast at 3 am.
This is a very mixed bad of recomendation, but they spicy and that what's count.
>Yea Forums is full of casuals
Color me surprised
Let 'em have it!
Most fanworks have both.
Fuck, meant for
That's also not bara since Thor and Tony Stark are twinks compared to the dudes in bara.
I'm not invalidating them because I'm not making absolute statements about women in the first place. I'm arguing against your assertion ("all women want this") with ("a lot of women don't though, we're varied in preferences"). I don't know how many times I have to say this to get it through your thick head. You're in the wrong here, just fucking admit it and move on.
But they're not twinks, they're big muscley dudes, which is a farcry from the actual twinks of old yaoi.
Doraemon
Man, that was easy
They're still big guys for me.
Bara is bear-body type, not lean muscles
This thread is a fucking mess. It seems like half of you don't even consume female oriented romance novels, comics or fanwork.
For better or worse the trendsetters in women's erotica comes from fandom now. Fandom influenced the spate of m/m published paperback romance/erotica and it influences visual erotic fanwork. The type of content being produced is diversifying beyond the basic 'vanilla' tastes of the average person. Much like men's porn has diversified and become more unusual and niche you're starting to see this happening with stuff aimed at women now too. So stuff like femdom becoming more common isn't unusual.
And desu you really, really need to separate between the tastes of women whose sexual tastes were formed prior to the internet, and those youngwho were strongly influenced by it.
Who even remembers Digimon anymore?
Doraemon is not a Digimon
> I'm not making absolute statements about women
>women have shit taste because I don't like what's popular, hey you girl, you like Black Bird? It's trash stop liking it read this thing I like instead
>Black Bird is not trash and I don't want to read that boring trash of yours
>HOW FUCKING DARE YOU DIE YOU STUPID BITCH
Please leave women alone.
That is not fucking bara you fucking retard
I'm sorry I don't know the difference between your two Pokemon ripoffs.
Fine, pedant. Women now fantasize about being a big muscley guy who gets dominated by a bigger or smaller guy.
This is honestly the one Shoujo I've ever enjoyed.
Even best boy won in the end, which rarely happens.
I conceded that they aren't, you fucking braindead autist. I just said they're still big.
This looks awful. If this is their best, I have seen enough✔️
I never said or implied any of that. You're confusing me for someone else.
It's sadly is. Don't knock it till you try it though, it's a fun read.
Still better than most western shits tho
LMAO
Doreamon precedes Pokemon by several decades.
The person you're responding to is an insane troll. He lives in his own little world, has his own definitions for things, and has his own bizarre form of logic that only makes sense to him. No matter what you say, he'll always be able to invent some reason why he's right, regardless of whether or not reality agrees with him. Attempting to argue with him is pointless, because nothing short of physical violence can get through his thick skull. If you don't want a headache, just leave him alone.
I don't see this diverse comics having much success, neither on the market or on the internet. Starfighter is pretty much traditional seme/uke yaoi, and that's what's successful among webcomics, which are made by the same internet demographic you're talking about.
Then why haven't I heard of it? Doesn't sound too successful, weeb.
>I don't see this diverse comics having much success
Uncanny X-Men and The New Teen Titans are two diverse comics that got huge. Guess that's because the diversity was natural and not forced.
Doraemon came before Pokemon, dumbass.
The vast majority of fanworks and commercial titles shows exactly the opposite. Also why are you making absolute statements about women?
So huge capeshit is dying off.
Coward.
Just as predicted here You assume that because you personally haven't heard of it, that means it isn't successful. Typical American obliviousness.
Name a bigger market than America. You can't.
Womyn drawing shojo are crap. The good ones flock to shonen
>The vast majority of fanworks and commercial titles shows exactly the opposite
>saying this in a world where the MCU is the biggest fucking fandom in virtually all parts of the planet
>all the ships involve muscular or older men, barring Loki
You must either be a grandpa or someone who lives under a rock.
>he's still trying
>if it's not successful in America, it's not successful period
Once again you prove what an idiot you are.
>MCU is the biggest fucking fandom in virtually all parts of the planet
?????????????????????? Where do you get this?
>The vast majority of fanworks
That depends entirely on the fandom you're in though. If you're in a fandom for a series that has mostly twinks then yeah, that's gonna be the norm, but there are several fandoms that just feature big dudes or bigger dudes. And even adhering to the first part, the Voltron fandom is famous for having its big muscle dude be drawn as the one bottoming to the twinks in a lot of Eastern fanworks. Things have changed since 2007.
From it being one of the most popular franchises ever? Stucky alone has a quadrillion fanfics and fujos on twitter making fanart for it. Thorki, Stucky, and Stony are consistently the top three most popular ships in China judging by Lofter's ranking.
>MCU is the biggest fucking fandom in virtually all parts of the planet
Got the numbers to back up that claim mate?
>all the ships involve muscular or older men, barring the most popular character featured in 99% of the content
Thanks for playing yourself, retard.
>barring the most popular character featured in 99% of the content
That would be Bucky or Tony. Loki hasn't been popular since 2012.
Thanks for confirming you're a grandpa stuck in the past.
Naruto is more popular.
I'm talking all content in existence. I know you retards love to obsess over your little niche, but you're not as big as you think.
And you're basing that on what?
Fujos grew up and realized the more manlier a guy is, the more hot it is to see their asses get plowed in by a cute girly boy.
Its the men who love seeing cute boys get fucked by older, manlier men now. Or fat dudes.
>MCU fandom
>niche
You have to be trolling at this point.
Again, got the numbers to back up your claims?
>I'm talking all content in existence
I'm going to stop taking your b8 now.
Watching this thread is like watching a burning building.
Sales, fan events, merchandise, enduring popularity for more than 10 years.
Nah I hate that shit. Please do not generalize us like that.
People keep giving you examples otherwise and you just keep moving goalposts. It takes time for trends to filter down to the big publishing houses (which you don't read), m/m was popular years before traditional publishers were willing to take the risk themselves. If you read fanwork you'd know its more thematically diverse and adventurous than your mom's harlequin bodice rippers from the 70's. Obviously 99.99% of fanfiction isn't going to be popular enough for uninterested mainstream guys to hear about, you have to seek it out, its popular in the context of its fandom.
Are guys really that upset about women fantasizing about shotas, nagas, mpreg and twinks topping baras?
I was more talking about Voltron. MCU is popular because of Loki.
It's just one turboautist/weeb who's been hellbent on insisting all women want to be submissive for hours now and has clearly gone off the deep end in his attempts at winning an argument. Just don't take his bait, he'll fuck off eventually.
I'm sorry user, but a lot of weirdos on the internet really do enjoy seeing a cute trap get fucked in his boipussy.
Its legit gay, no matter how much they wish to deny it.
>MCU is popular because of Loki.
If you're stuck in 2012, maybe. Were you not on the internet when Bucky became the hot new thing?
>They can't just make fun comics, they have to make important, CULTURALLY RELEVANT comics
The fact that you actually throw stones at people that want to say something and think you have a good point is why comics are so shit, funfag.
The real problem with comics is these people that make them are hired because they're friends with editors so their CULTURALLY IMPORTANT" comics suck because dumb people make dumb comics. Also, these people, much like you, are pro censorship. Being a renegade is seen as bad now.
>look up "Marvel Cinematic Universe" on AO3
>look up top 10 characters with most fanfiction
>Loki is in 9th
This argument is dumb because Tom Hiddleston isn't even a twink.
>m/m was popular years before traditional publishers were willing to take the risk themselves
Yeah, but the popular content has always been the same. Dominant seme, submissive uke. Traditional publishers publish that content because that's what's popular.
You're the one that seems upset at women loving Twilight and fantasizing about dominant men.
it's sad how much effort someone will go to to cape for their basic ass fetish and how upset they get over other people having different taste
>I SPEAK FOR WOMEN
>NO -I- SPEAK FOR WOMEN
>WELL I SPEAK FOR MEN
>NO -I- SPEAK FOR MEN
How bout you all get over yourselves and realise we're all individual pieces of shit that like our own brand of degeneracy
t.fag who likes big buff dudes getting ploughed by small dudes
Oh user, I work at a library, I get to read this stuff at work. Seme/uke dynamics are old and busted. M/m print books written in the west do not follow Japanese tropes. These books aim at specific buyers instead of Women as a monolith.
I'm just disappointed that I've wasted so much time arguing with this clueless basement dweller who apparently doesn't know the first thing about modern fandom. Obviously if it all yaoi was just the boring ass shit like Junjou or other yaoi from the early 2000's like user insists it is, I wouldn't even still be into it. It's because it's changed so much over the years that I'm still able to enjoy as much as I did when I was 13. Hell, we now have yaoi of black characters being bottoms thanks to Black Panther and Spiderverse, something that never, ever existed back in old yaoi. Things change and user needs to accept that.
good taste
>t.fag who likes big buff dudes getting ploughed by small dudes
Flawless taste.
t. straight girl
>Thread about womyn comic
>All these homosexuals flood in for some reason
Huh I need to get back into fandom
From the print side if you're willing to give original works a chance there is good m/m stuff being written. I've read through some older m/f romance novels too (I have a lot of free time at work) and they're really not that bad or as monolithic as people portray them as. Its a genre that gets a bad rap despite its critics never bothering to actually read them.
And they don't sell while the Japanese one's sell.
Good for you, but women who enjoy the dominant/submissive dynamic are not allowed to enjoy themselves like you do because people like you harass them whenever they speak out and that's not good.
They get a bad rap because shitty women give it a bad rap when they are other women liking what they don't like.
Even Japanese fujos don't stick to the seme/uke stuff as much as they used to. Most Tiger&Bunny fanworks had the young pretty twink top the old man, there were tons of lewds of Sky High getting gang raped or bottoming, the bulk of eastern lewds for Voltron have Shiro as the bottom, you can find plenty of switching in eastern MCU fanart, Black Hat usually bottoms to Flug, even just one visit to /y/ can show how much more versatile things are nowadays.
Also worth mentioning that Korean fujos are now a major, major provider of a lot of fanart nowadays, arguably moreso than Japan, and they love switching up normal expectations. Japan definitely still loves the trope-y stuff, but they're not as rigid as before.
I hope you have a nice day too, troll user.
I wish women would shut the fuck up and accept other women's opinion when other women say Twilight is good.
>women can't like what I don't like
You're the troll, user.
damn smoothbrain why are you so fucking insecure over women liking things you don't like I hope you walk into traffic
I find the outpouring of filth a true show of female solidarity, thank you blessed fujos
Liking Twilight is fine. It's when you use the popularity of Twilight as an argument that ALL women want the same thing like user up thread did, that's when you're rightfully going to get called out.
That's not a woman thing that's a your opinion is shit thing
Fun thread, also dino
Why yes, I did have a good day at work, thank you for asking!
It's an argument that a lot of women want that thing, and they are not being catered to because of sjws harassing them and making up bullshit to silence them.
>He works
But your opinion is shit user
>Hell, we now have yaoi of black characters being bottoms thanks to Black Panther and Spiderverse
I'm still stunned that there is literally thousands of BP yaoi fanart. What a time to be alive.
Yes, yes, you're so oppressed, we get it.
Its such good quality too
See, you don't care about women.
I wonder though. Who's causing western culture to basically think censorship is in vogue though? Is it really women who are trying to stamp out all sexy fanservice from media?
I want ladies to enjoy their fanservice, I wish women would let me enjoy mine.
>Is it really women who are trying to stamp out all sexy fanservice from media?
Well yeah, it's women that always attack other women for liking 50 Shades or Twilight.
I've got a theory its getting egged on by big companies to make their products easier to market and sell across the globe
So many aspects of our culture seem to be getting slowly Disneyfied. First it was soccer moms and churches now its the former rebels.
Right? It was probably a flash in the pan as I don't see films starring all black actors in a fantasy setting happening again anytime soon, but it's definitely changed my old assumptions about eastern fujos.
Don't take this user's b8.
Here, Have sum straight stuff :D
I have a little bit of a hard time following this thread.
But I do wish more erotic manga targeted to adult women got more translation in the west.
I got nothing against yaoi, but it does absolutely nothing for me. Sometime I feel I'm the only one not liking yaoi, since it seems to be a default all women should like but, nah.
lol I remember when Yea Forums insisted the movie would fail and one of the arguments is that a glbal audience wouldn't find the leads attractive.
its like they never even looked at Killmonger
But it's the factual truth. It's not men harassing girls that their tastes are problematic and rape culture, that's something women invented.
I know, but I can sense who the user who said it is and I want to warn people to not get caught up in his shit again.
Men also belittle women's tastes though, it's why Twilight faced so much mockery and why boy bands or popular musical twinks get shit on to the extreme. Men just found 50 Shades affirming of their misconception that all women want to get abused and raped.
dont know what you are talking about. They do thing is they dont want to make their own comic they want to ruin the ones that already exist.
What shit?
Sjws started it and incels jumped on it. Nobody should belittle women's tastes.
well to be honest, women do shit on men's taste all the time. they call it immature while they do something just as immature in a different way. We just dont know who started it.
I never thought the movie would fail, but I never for a minute thought fujos would latch onto it and produce so much content for it. KillChalla was even in the top 10 most popular trending ships in fucking China. I shouldn't have been so suprised though in retrospect considering I did see a few smatterings of T'Challa fujo fanart when CW released, pic related.
No fujo can resist cat boys.
Evidently.
Someone said this regarding creating female characters in today's climate.
"> unironically making a female character in 2019
there's your problem. If you make a female character, modern "think" is that they have some claim of ownership over it and right to tell you what to do with it.
Just by virtue of having the same gender [a thing that also supposedly doesn't exist and is just a social construct] as your virtual character.
Don't make female characters if you can help it. Just don't. "
Is it really that dire?
Probably the greatest American woman cartoonist/comic artist is stuck at the wrong job. We'll never who she is until she changes jobs or some shit.
True!
Japan makes female characters easily, while America has giant fucking controversies all the time with them.
We can’t write.
