The point of vtubing, or rather the oshi - chat relationship is that it's mutually beneficial and supportive. It is a constructed, shared dream and thus a form of art where both participants are equally engaged in, but with the oshi holding primacy. She sets the tone and mood at its core. Consequently a chuuba needs to treat her audience and fans with respect, which explicitly means that during streams and other interactions her attention and her everything is to be focused on her chat/fans. This means explicit and total rejection of other males, and avoidance of male collabs as well.
Not bringing up theoretical boyfriends or husbands and such is the barest modicum of respect. In any case all of this has been talked about to death MANY times over the years and all the kinks have been ironed out as well through trial and error. The entire discussion is pointless and thus can be regarded as pointless and intentional stirring of drama.
>Every vtuber is GFE
This also holds true to a degree and ties into everything I've said. While a girl may not offer or even attempt GFE it is a feature of male psychology to interpret and enjoy her and her content in that way. This is unavoidable and impossible. Ergo basically every vtuber can be seen as "unintentional GFE" and a competent chuuba acknowledges and recognizes this on an intellectual level and as a creed even if she cannot understand why her fans would see her as such. For that reason, the above mentioned basic respect and decorum.
We like to imagine. It is utterly irrelevant that she cannot be our GF, will not be our GF and has no intention of being our GF. A fan KNOWS this in the same way I know Marisa Kirisame won't fuck me, but I absolutely do imagine it often. It loops back into the fantasy and the shared dream experience. Of course this is just one feature of vtubing, if GFE appeal was all there was to vtubing or ecchi fanservice the whole scene and culture would've collapsed into dust before it even reached the West. We enjoy the girls on multiple levels and for many reasons, but it is unavoidable that a perfectly sane, reasonable, logical fan will inevitably feel a degree of romantic and platonic affection for his oshi, since this is a basic fucking feature of male psychology. Being a fan in this scene is an actively male and masculine role since by our presence and efforts we "push" and uphold and take care of a girl. Consequently the oshi - fan relationship is mutually beneficial, and only ideologically and/or religiously motivated people (normalfags) have issue with this.
No matter how great a fan, he will still pursue 3DPD women and fuck them when given the chance, means and opportunity. So the greatest myth that these girls are somehow 2predatory" is nonsensical as well. If anything they probably bled out misogyny and inceldom out of a lot of guys.
