That can't be real

There's was a apparently a whole drama surrounding whether it's real, where the streamer went out and said it's super fake and she's definitely not married. Except now she is herself claiming to be married after all, so it probably was real.

Speaking of streamers with husbands



The whole culture of Twitch mods is such a weird and sad rabbit hole. Simps throwing money away to get someone's attention is sad, but it's not unexpected. Hell, strip clubs and hostess bars have been operating on this business model for decades. But having volunteer mods who are also there to get the streamer's attention...that would be like if the bouncers in a strip club were volunteers who just wanted the dancers to notice them.

I logged onto Twitch for the first time in like two years this past summer to watch a tournament thing I was interested in. The two categories that weirded me out to see most were the bikini hot tub one and the gambling ones. Like people watching other people do scratch offs and poo poo.

The hot tub thing weirds me out because I’ve always thought of twitch as like an all ages platform and there’s more than enough porn elsewhere on the internet. Like you do those knowing you’re steaming to underage kids.

im gonna guess they willingly do this knowing they're not only streaming to underaged kids, but fleecing them out of all their allowances as well

Dude, my heart goes out to this guy. That was super humiliating and disrespectful. If anybody ever find yourself in that situation just leave, she is not worth your time. I would also encourage that person to give "Moves: Dating is a Game" a read, it will help you understand situations like that as if you are in a videogame. This way, you can bridge the understanding of women to videogames, and know how to handle those moments.

Willing to bet this dude sucks and you don’t have to get his back. This is a woman who has dealt with shitheads like this objectifying her most of her life and now she’s owning it so she can eat. Doesn’t mean she has to respect these turds.

The guy is a creep who just wants to gently caress her like a beast and his pathetic attempt at creating halfhearted camaraderie is rightly instantly recognized for what it is: a sad attempt at creating a tiny amount of physical contact with the brainworm imaginings that it could lead to more, somehow, some way

So I'm wonder what his SA username is, basically

Dating is a game, and this is your Ultimate Strategy Guide! From my experience, dating and videogames have so many things in common. And if you as a Man, took all those lessons that you’ve learned from playing videogames your entire life and applied them to dating, you can become quite successful at it. The aim of this book is to use those amazing videogames that we love to play and show you how they are similar to dating. This book will show you all the moves, lessons, and special counter attacks that will help you understand the rules of dating and how you can play the game better than anyone else. . . just like a videogame. So, are you ready to win? Are you ready to learn how to move, play, and dominate the Dating Game like a Pro Championship Player on a speed run challenge through Hot Chick Castle? You sure? Good! Don’t waste another second. Smash that “Buy” button now to grab your new controller for getting what you want out of dating called "Moves: Dating is a Game," and get ready to take your game with women to the next level so that you can start winning at this bigger one called Life!

There's like a million things he could a done differently in that one million view+ YouTube video, he doesn't even try to look at her when he attempts the high five. He holds his hand up and looks in the complete other direction...

I was always under the impression that she just didn't see him. Like I don't know if she's mean or not but she doesn't make any kind of expression or look his way at all, seems like she's focused on the framing of the video, not him.

Yeah he doesn't even make an effort to be seen. She doesn't see his hand go up. He's looking in the complete other direction and being as quiet as possible

She could also have a very well-honed creep-deflector sense and avoiding that high five at all cost is part of it.

It's like how Oprah hates to be hugged. But so many people who meet Oprah want to hug her. So Oprah has a keen hug-defense mechanism where she reaches out and grabs their hands to do a kind of high-shake. See:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beEtr-Zm6Jw

That streamer has probably had a ton of creeps go for the high five, only to then catch her hand and pull her in closer. So she's not gonna take a chance with this guy. Avoiding looking his way also helps sell the effect.

You're probably correct. I've always thought that it would suck to be a semi-popular to popular streamer/youtuber. While Amouranth is an exception monetarily, most of them don't make a ton of money but they get a lot of the negative effects of fame. I know that even small time male youtubers often get stalkers or weirdos who obsess about them, I can only image how it would be for women on either platform.
