[M] Just as planned

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.


Temporary Change: To reduce the strain on Dreamwidth's servers new entries will go up when a post reaches 3,000. Please refrain from spamming so we can stretch these entries for a little longer. We don't need several threads soliciting photo evidence of body parts, and we already know that we only care about yaoi. Failure to comply will only result in deletions and butthurt. "People may notice site slowdown/cache error pages. We're working on fixing. You can help: finish posts at 3k comments, not 5k or more." - Dreamwidth@Twitter

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.


Concerns?

Hey! This is the designated catch-all entry. This is not an invitation to spam to your heart's content. The same rules apply.

Fanservice is likely a better term and about the same length.

Fanservice is a good term for it.

Likely better in some ways since it's not gender specific. A shirtless man or guy in leather pants is fanservice as much as a titty shot is.

Exactly! It makes no indication of who the fan is, only that the creators included it for the sake of catering to that fan.

>implying female-oriented fanservice is even relevant enough in most popular canons to discuss

and no, shirtless men don't automatically count, because a lot of the time they're there to show power and further add to the male power fantasy. sure, it has the fringe benefit of sometimes appealing to women, but that's not the main reason it's there.

like the shirtless scene in captain america after steve is brought out of the experimentation tube and he's giant. women may like seeing chris evans shirtless, but the real purpose of the shot is to show everyone LOOK HOW MACHO AND CUT HE IS NOW.

outside of shoujo manga, romcoms, and shows on the cw, female-oriented fanservice that is actually meant for fanservice is slim pickings.
