The sign on the barricade reads "no girls allowed", and the whole image seems to intensify this slogan, as sexy things and anime paraphernalia are believed to ward off women. Because we men want to have safe spaces too. lol safe spaces the cry of feminists who cant take criticisml Haiku is a fine way to necro a thread, but why necro it in the first place? Also, I can't be bothered to take criticism all the time. Sometimes I just want to watch tentacle hentai / cute girls doing cute things / ecchi harem in peace.

THEY RUINED THE SHOW!! or insecure teenage girls get butthurt.... get... the fuck.... OUT..... -___- Dude... You've become a lot more cynical since I've been away XD. Calm down. Lots of these people are just new to anime anyway. They're coming in with the mindset they've had regarding other shows. I don't think anyone who's seen more than 5 shows won't really think like that. Anyways... just calm down. Actually, his answer in February in this thread is pretty much the same: Mamster-P said: its called double standards, people in the US don't care if men are sexy but theres outrage if women are, its fucking ridiculous if we want equal rights, everything should apply EQUALY to both sexes men with their shirts off = no one cares women showing skin = WHAT ARE THEY DOING? ------------------ Realible said: True, i lost count how many yaoi fangirls i saw in the comment section about anime like Free :P, when there's a ecchi anime airing, no man in this world can say it is good or he'll be called a pervert or something along those lines... logic? Well, yaoi fangirls are perverts, but what's the point of telling them about it? I'm sure they know it already. CherryLover said: Lobinde said: Well likewise lots of people are quick to draw the "fanservice!" card, just because a female character is wearing a skirt for example, doesn't make it automatically fanservice. More often than not, it is fanservice since those skirts are being used to do a "pantsu display," which is quite disgusting. This is clearly pandering to the taste of overly meninist pigs. Girls wearing short skirts are a lot more frequent than panty shots. Probably because girls usually wear short skirts IRL. (Pantyshots are still more common in anime than IRL) I wonder why nobody said it before? |

Mamster-P said: @flannan lol damn, this thread is this old? i forgot what i had said... xD shows you just "creative" MAL has been the past few months I have to admit, MAL makes a lot of threads, but many of them tackle the same issues. But when you notice a new thread is already 5 pages long, it's a good idea to check if it is in fact an old thread. (that's hypocritical of me - the necro post was a response to my post, so I already knew that I have written to it) |

| I think its when the fan-service is too much and overly obvious. Man-service is in a way more normal because theres literally nothing sexual about it |
| fanservice is a waste of time if you ask me. Manservice is just as much of a waste. men are way less sexualised than woman (which isnt something im saying is good about our world, its just how it is atm) its why people pay less attention to nude men. though i would say that there are a ton of "pretty boy" anime. I find looking at cartoon boobs and panties doesnt add anything to my experience. It often takes away from the story and pacing imo. Besides, if i wanted to look at boobs, i got the internet, i can do it anytime and anywhere, and theyll be real.... |

| I actually don't complain about fan service BECAUSE there is man service :P Not that I was a huge complainer of fan service anyway. At this point its everywhere so much to the point where if it was an issue for me I probably wouldn't still be into anime. |
 |
| Because there isn't enough good animes without fan service. |
| Sociologists from the University of Delaware has predicted the sex of anime fans, and found out that many of them are heterosexual males. Straight guys are okay with sexualizing women, but feel uncomfortable when they are sexualized. It's quite hypocritical, if you ask me. Im a straight male, even though I am not attracted to manservice, I acknowledge that other people do like it and move on with my life. I don't mind manservice or fanservice, I think they're both fine :) |
 "The sun is my enemy, but the moon has been good to me." |
| As for me I could go without any of these. |
 |
| I think there should be a little of both in anime |
| Yuri on Ice for example shouldn't be watched by straight men. |
 |
| Is this a threat like ISIS ruining something? Both exist, either you like one aspect and don't like one, or both... Or neither... Mhhh... Its a old thread.. Why did it poped-out? A dead must remain dead. |

There's your problem right there - why are people disliked being sexualized? |
| WEAPONS - My blog, for reviews of music, anime, books, and other things |
| Way to revive a thread. OT: it's because female bodies are always seen as sensual while male bodies usually aren't. Women have to be way more concious because of this. |
 |
| Muscular men as protags aren't typically there to make you horny, they're there as a male power fantasy. Basically you're supposed to want to be them not fuck them. It's not really fan service in the same way. However its completely legitimate to critisize unrealistic male body standards and stuff but at least understand what you're critisizing. |
| WTF is this word "manservice" ? Fanservice is for both genders |
| There is nowhere near as much manservice as fanservice. Not by a long shot. It's not even a contest. The ratio is, like, 75 to 1. |
 This glorious signature image was created by @Mayumi! I am the Arbiter of Absolute Truth, and here is my wisdom: "Anime was always influenced by the West. This is not news. Shoujo is the superior genre primarily aimed at young people. Harem/isekai are lazy genres that refuse any meaningful innovation. There is no 'Golden Age.' There will always be top-shelf anime. You should be watching Carole & Tuesday." |
| I guess because a lot of people from older generations would say: "BUT THEY'RE JUST CARTOON CHARACTERS." Lol. Sorry, had to say it. |
