Should the term "waifu" be banned?

Should gamers stop using the word "waifu" when describing a cute video game character?

OH MY GOD, THANK YOU SO MUCH OP. I WAS REALLY, REALLY LOOKING FOR A REASON TO GET OUTRAGED. I WAS ALMOST GONNA GET DISTRACTED BY VIDYA

GOD BLESS YOU

*AHEM* GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

That's definitely a tranny getting dysphoria from her gooning material

Why did americans become so much japanophobes?

A "man" wrote this btw.

Waifu only means character that is hot

Retard

r/GirlGamers

100% trannies

Yes.
Everyone who uses the term waifu to refer to the latest FOTM gacha character or to whoever they think "best girl" is from a particular game should be banned from posting on the internet until they find their real waifu.

Were the 2000s/2010s like that too? Because I can't believe the culture has shifted inch such a short period of time since then. Maybe I was just naive to not notice it back in the day. outside of normies hating anime and weebs back in the day of course

If straight men like it, it is bad and should not exist.

It really is fucking cringe tbqh. Stop being weird and just get a real gf.

How is Azumanga capable of triggering normalfags for literal decades.

just nuke this board from existence already

Guy likes fictional girl

NOOOOOOOOOO

I hate women

She's right, no one uses waifu right anymore except me and a few select individuals who are based.

I'm surprised it took this many posts for someone to point this out

girlgamers

This is a tranny at best, not a real femoid

This is a reddit post. everyone assumed that already based on that

I hate the term "waifu" because it's used so callously by normalfags for "FOTM girl that makes my dick hard." No bitch, it has a very specific connotation. She isn't special to you, she isn't your waifu. Fuck off.

Shieeeeeeeet I can't read but i'm here to get angry as well

RAWR

Imagine being passed on by a guy who prefers a 2D girl when they are around them. Why do women feel like they just unwarrantly deserve a guys attention they find cute?
If they want a guy they just have to work on suggestions and if they are passed on guess what you are a reject and should learn to cope in a more healthy manner.

Straight men like it

Nobody who watches anime regularly and spends all day fawning over drawings is straight.

It was just less visible and these people did not really have platform back then, but the feminist nu-puritan activist had been trying to latch themselves into popular culture for decades before Anita Sarkeesian finally succeeded.

You niggas are alright, lemme join in

grrrrr hisss

women

I do that and I am a straight man.

Yes, but for a completely different reason from that tranny's reddit post.
Waifu doesn't mean Hot Anime Girl
Waifu means a special 2D girl that you LOVE, one of a kind.
The meaning of the word has been completely bastardized like weeb, incel and nazi.

I thought actual, old school "waifu" purists fucking despise that word being thrown around in vain by ironic weebs that just want to mean "hot woman in a game that I can flirt with"?
Especially having multiple of them, that's a travesty.

Why were you browsing r/GirlGamers?
Just kidding, I know why. You're regurgitating it here after all.

I think you should be banned from the Internet

Slop means something I don´t like

Thats even more retarded.

what's wrong with the harem end, huh?

personally browsing reddit and taking screenshots to make threads about it on Anon Babble

what is wrong with you faggots

these reddit screenshots are most likely taken from xitter

Never listen to women's opinions.

Using the term puritan to describe baby killers and the dregs of society is a vile and twisted use of the word. Your hatred for Christians needs to stop. Only then can the country heal.

according to the filename, OP personally screenshotted that post

She is aromantic and asexual, she wouldn't get it.

It crept in very very gradually, until GamerGate forced them to go full masks off, and then it was full throttle for a decade.

That's fair

Should socialist morons stop destroying their own movement by taking pointless retarded battles?

watches and enjoys anime

wants to change it to something else

This sounds familiar...

Too sincerely autistic for anime communities nowadays, they probably don't even know about that meaning.

She can't be Guyanese, Guyanese are chill.

"waiful" is literally just a word for fictional crush
are they fucking retarded?

That last line

Is this video games? This clearly looks like Anon Babble material.

omg bro like bro just no come on bro

100% chance the author of that post is a tranny.

It is a left wing tradition. Read up on Western European communist during the Cold War sometime, they kept shooting themselves to the foot all the time because in the end they rather languished under capitalism than ever cooperated with slightly different kind of communists.

Should gamers stop using the word "waifu

How about people who don't like the world waifu can fuck off? Fuck all tourists.

Ledditors are hilarious because they still live in 2015 and identity politics and cancelling people for wrong think is still all the rage.

Nobody has used the word waifu correctly in more than ten years.

Basically every modern colloquial use of the word puritan is incorrect. They weren't sexless prudes. There were men expelled for not fucking their wives enough. At the very least it was grounds for a divorce. Just because the women weren't walking around in thongs and fucking randoms doesn't mean they were appalled by the idea of sex.

_grim_reaper

This guy totally knows how to make everyone's lives better, thanks

fictional crush

Explain to a non-autist how do you crush on something that's not real

draw sakura in her small chested glory dammit!

so she is mad her boobs are tiny

they can call men husbandos

wife is different from gf is different from crush
wife is someone you dedicate your loyalty to

One thing marriage has taught me is that women are insecure to a degree that most men can't comprehend. It's probably the number one reason for arguments, especially ones where the man thinks the woman is simply being unreasonable.

It was always like this, the difference is that now there's widespread social media so every negative IQ, concaved skull, drooling mongoloid knuckle-dragger has a means to broadcast his retarded thoughts to the world.

I will not post her but I've been with my waifu for 11 years

it just means that you'd want to be with that character if they were real, that you'd be attracted to them for some reason
its really not that fucking deep really

wife is different

well then good that this isn't the word we are talking about here

whenever a woman is upset, it can always be boiled down fundamentally to her feelings of inadequacy towards her own breasts. you NEVER see big tiddied women get upset over shit like this.

You can never be so far to the left that someone one inch further to the left of you won't declare you a counter-revolutionary traitor and have you executed.

reddit screencap thread

kill yourself

waifu is japanglish of wife

I will never understand why there are so many stick in the mud faggots who see people having fun and have to take it upon themselves to try their best to ruin it for everyone.

Too many single women coming to internet

'crush' is a childish word used by preteens. the idea that a grown-up - an adult, someone old enough to know better - could be using that word completely sincerely, fills me with revulsion. like if they were to call their food 'nummy nums' or whatever. it's the sign of a warped, stunted mind.

so true sister, the modern audience don't need this problematic word anymore.

Lets say waifu did get banned which it never will people would just say wife instead so ??????

if not a tranny then probably a fat, short, deep voiced bisexual girl who uses that bisexuality as an excuse to insert herself into male spaces to nag them, going hot/cold on "yeah haha i'm like one of the bros performing my sexuality" and "men are trash"

i have a crush on you >ω< !!

Femcels

being attracted to someone without willing/being able to pursue it is childish

This captures my complaints about its usage. I am fine with it, except it usually gets used to describe any anime girl versus characters who hold a special place.

R-really?

mhm :3

woman having woman moment because she can't control language and can't control other people in what she imagines is her hen house realm "community"

No waifu, no lifeu

did not read stop posting frogslop

girl

gamers

It's insane how everything about them is fake.

Whoa... I don't know how to feel..

No waifu?
No buy

frogposting is older than you faggot, have some respect

can you stop?

it's going on 15 years at this point. get new material

It's cringe, sure but I wouldn't advocate banning. That's sjw behavior

This was the moment speedrunning was ruined

girlgamers

quickly someone post the crossboards for that

imagine being in a hospital bed dying of cancer, enjoying a speedrun of your favorite game to escape the insanity of your life, and then this lady hijacks all the attention because she thinks she's gonna die of cancer in the future because her grandma did.

you are a fucking underage repeating "ass" every time thinking its funny after repeating it 50000000 times
stop pretending you are older than anyone here

they’re not prudes because you can fuck your wife

Jesus Christ lol
“Masturbation bad” is baked into the culture to the point they intentionally misinterpret a Bible verse and is what circumcision is actually about

Pic related made fully realize how hypocritical foids can be lol

should people humor dogshit opinions from retards?

I wish it would happen less often

it's whack as hell

bro please

bro why

Edit: In a not quite similar vein, people who draw female characters with ridiculously enlarged proportions

DAE have these incredibly tripe and outspoken opinions???

made me fully realize*

in hindsight everyone at the backseat should've stoned her to death

weird projection but ok

she was elevated to a position of authority after this incident and is responsible for the forced ideology and sterilization that exists in the event today

I think it's fine if you mean "waifu" in reference to the concept, like if a character is clearly intended to be percieved that way. But "your waifu" should mean a lot more than "waifu character".

qrd? im not autistic enough to follow speedrunning

It's multiple generations that create a new definition based on context clues instead of bothering to find out what it was supposed to mean

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I FEEL THE RAGE GUYS OH MY GOD I'M SO OUTRAGED AND FUCKING ANGRY IT'S THE 8TH TIME TODAY THAT I GET SO ANGRY I WAS ABOUT TO TURN ON MY PS3 TO PLAY TALES OF XILLIA AND THEN THIS FUCKING FAGGOT ASS POST MADE BY REPLY AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH I WANT TO SMASH SOMETHING NOW (ur mom) HERE'S A PICTURE THAT REPRESENTS HOW ANGRY I AM RIGHT NOW
it's incredible how disgusting troons would join communities ilke >GirlGamers to say shit like that
it's a drawing you fucking retard, it's a fictional character, stop self inserting you disgusting freaks
nobody complains when a gta protag lifts 3pl8 and bitches drool over it, I struggle to lift my dick or mouse even and I'm not going to >MaleGamers to cry about that

VIDYA WAIFUS

"stop doing things I don't like"

600 retards agree

Feeding egos like this is probably part of what went so wrong with the internet.
Social Media was a mistake

No, you didn't have shit like Reddit where these people feel validated by getting points
You would see dogshit opinions like this on forums maybe but they would get told to fuck off because everyone can see they've made 3 posts in total and they were all dogshit

Reddit posting cunts like OP should be banished into the shadow realm and raped by shadow demons.

Ah yes the popularization of circumcision which was famously initiated by puritans in the late 19th century. Again, your world view is based on memes from Reddit. You don't actually know or care about the historical fact of the matter. Most of the people actually responsible for the popularization of circumcision in the anglosphere were liberal scientists. Religious as most people were in those days, but not puritans. Circumcision didn't really take off until the early 20th century, long after the influence of the actual puritans had waned. The actual puritans believed that you didn't have to circumcise children and baptism had replaced that as a covenant.

This. There are no actual women on Reddit anymore. Trannies invaded all their spaces and mods banned everyone who had a problem with it.

r/GirlGa-AAACK!!!!!

Waifu doesn't mean "cute video game character." One's waifu is the character you like the most, over all other characters. The ledditor is a blind man who has found an acorn, then shoved it up his arse.

*AHEM* GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

b-b-b-b-b-bologna

GAOOO

Everyone knows it, no reason to waste a post on it.

I bet this is a tranny that masturbates to hentai every day

The term "Waifu" lost its original meaning about decade ago because nu-animefaggots mark every new girl as their waifu.
You either have one waifu for life or no waifu at all.

Thing is these girls and women or trannies or whatever they are have more and more disposable income.
Eventually whatever they want will be catered to and it's gonna get worse.

that guy is retarded you don't have a waifu simply for how she looks

lmao stfu autistic faggot

A fucking reddit thread

um aktually it was the evolution of Christianity out of Puritanism in which circumcision became more popular

I don’t care you fucking nigger to say modern Christians aren’t anti-masturbation is straight up denying reality

Same thing happened with loli and tomboys

Short, petite girl = loli

Girl with short hair who does sports = tomboy

18+ website

Please go back to the that sub if you like it so much.

Should gamers stop using the word "waifu"

Yes, or no. Whichever answer makes you leave faster.

Also fyi r/girlgamers is famously full of trannies.

It's way worse now, back then people were still like this but they kept their mouths shut because somewhere deep inside they knew having a meltdown like this over a word that doesn't affect them in any way, shape or form was stupid and made them look retarded. Now "people" accept this kind of behavior as the norm, getting angry over words that have no negative connotations and expressing just how mentally ill you are is encouraged far too much

There's so much shit in the world that makes me mad, real world shit that I can't even begin to comprehend how someone can be this upset over the word "waifu" unless it's just bait. That being said it is a reddit post so I'm not surprised by what comes from that hell hole but I still refuse to be that mad over something that literally does not matter

you're old, stop hanging onto old usage and learn how language adapts

probably the autist that argues the correct usage of roguelike

you should have seen the early 2000s gaming media. when microshaft released the xbox (project midway), all of western gaming media mysteriously became anti japan

Never thought I'd see someone by a descriptivist faggot about waifu of all things. Please kill yourself.

Nta
I will call your games Roguelites as intended and you can pry the word “Roguelike” from my cheetoh dusted hands

That's a man.

All art should abide by what *I* WANT! ME ME ME! I'M THE MATURE ONE NOT YOU. I'M THE FEMALE, YOU NEED TO DRAW EVERYTHING HOW I WANT IT TO BE DRAWN! ME ME ME!

EWWWW INCEL YOU'LL NEVER GET LAID HAHA YOU'LL DIE A VIRGIN

WTF WHY DO YOU HAVE A WAIFU? PAY ATTENTION TO ME! ME ME ME AND MY STANDARDS!

Can't fucking win with these retards.

Um so Shadow realm? Yikes, implying anything darker is inferior ie people of color and that bad things should be banished there. I think we can all do better.

Edit: Thank you for the gold kind stranger ;)

Edit 2: Wow didn't expect this to blow up, trans rights!

Edit 3: Ok for those quote mining me, grow up. Those girls are lying and they told me they were over 18.

i accept my punishment to impregnate senchou and raise our children

been like that since the 90's really

went on reddit cause bored

see feminist subreddit called two X chromosomes

tranny posted a progress pic

"after years of hrt"

still obviously a man

I comment on it with just

">two X chromosomes"

the literal name of the sub

banned instantly

there's probably more women %wise on here than there desu

Why is it so obvious to spot a mentally ill trannyfreak? Cause that's exactly who wrote this.

ree stop having fun

Dude just cumming on his TV screen

Can you lose/drop a waifu? What if in a sequel she is confirmed a coal burner or something?

My stance on waifus are that you can never have more than one at a time and it takes a significant NEW development to make dropping your waifu an option. I am not so extreme as to say if your waifu becomes a shit you can never get a new one though.

femcel

Crying that you got BTFO for trying to bully someone

What am I supposed to take away from this besides the fact that you're pathetic?

Because they're always worked up over stupid shit and type like a child. They use terms like "ick" or "umm" or "ew" or "yucky" or "ugh" because mentally they haven't grown since they were 16.

Sex with bearpirate

I miss when people had no filter or tact when writing posts

got btfo

Getting banned from such a reddit sounds more like a blessing than getting "blown out." You sound pretty mad yourself. What are your chromosomes, by chance?

anon, don’t ragebait
it’s a dark path

Reddit hasn’t been a real website in many years

femnazi writes a schizo post

vidya devs are so cucked and pussy-whipped that they listen to her

LMAO

I literally posted this yesterday and it got taken down with a warning but this thread says up
Fuck the jannies

Normalfags like you have mutilated the meaning of "waifu" to such an extend that it wouldn't be a great loss.

I'd pretend there was no sequel, just like I'm pretending there were no games after GGXXAC+R and that the Warcraft series ended on TFT.

You were too obvious mate, I mean come on

More hypocrite and control freak

the more things change, the more they stay the same.

roastie redditor opinion

I do not care, why did you make this thread

Good god we really are stuck in a stasis

I think getting banned from a sub for just saying it's name is pretty funny

Latent pedo whining that people aren't catering to his fetishes

I've realised that all arguments about this topic boil down to different flavors of degenerate arguing over their preferences.

amazing

Using the phrase "banish to the shadow realm" needs to be banished to the shadow realm.

My issue is that nobody uses it right anymore. It just means "cute girl" now instead of a specific character you want to wife and call her your waifu.

mindless dweenies

100% chance this is a mentally ill male feminist with cross dressing fetish and body dimorphic issues. Also, severely bullied in middle school/high school, fat, ugly, likely speech impediment, and self diagnosed ADHD, OCD, "anxiety", "depression", PTSD, "trauma", and an unhealthy attraction to cartoon colourful horses, black people, Marxism, socialism, anarchy, seizing the means of production, comrades, BLM, LGBT, and small children.

I just found the post and there were a ton of posts from women disagreeing, likening the word to their own use of 'husbando'. Even the OP admitted she sometimes uses it.
