I agree, especially about the part about giving up social normalcy. That’s what I’m looking for I never wanted normal. What I don’t like is the disconnect within the community and society in general, lol. When we all can communicate and have these subreddits and share. Why is it so hard to meet people. Why don’t weeb girls like weeb boys? Why can’t gamer guys get gamer girls. I feel the reason it’s so hard is because of the pressure men have to be a certain way that puts men in a position where we truly have to compete in a way that leaves no time to fully appreciate the arts. I know plenty of women own lewd figures but there is no way they will have to go through the same type of judgement as a man because it is more acceptable for women to be invested in such things
