I also feel like outside the 'femininity is shameful, submissiveness is shameful' aspect of it, I lowkey think a lot of it is the subversion of anxiety around costs and societal hatred. After all, you didnt choose this, it was foisted, it is readily available, you're a victim so nobody in society can blame you. You didn't have to grapple with your brain, trying to find doctors to fix things, trying to fork up the tens of thousands of dollars to actually get shit done, or anything, that was done for you. So in a way it is a fantasy of avoiding transition anxieties.

Its also unhinged but thats what makes it funny

ooh I think you're onto something there, it's like an extension of the button thought experiment for eggs.

Look I'm all for encouraging consideration of one's gender, expression, wants and needs, but thinking that it alone is the solution to the incels woes is uh lacking at best. These boys gotta grow up and develop inter/personal relationships if they're ever gonna escape the brainworms they've found themselves with.

Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.
