    God, weebs are so dumb and annoying. I love the East, but Japan is backwards in a lot of ways. I mean, every country is, but weebs act like Japan is somehow far above the rest in every conceivable way.

      When I went to live in Japan for a year on a fellowship, I was intensely scrutinized for a bit until they were sure I wasn’t a weeb. Only then was I more welcomed socially. For some reason, people don’t like being fetishized. Who knew?

            Ive found that with weebs theres a lot of overlap.

            They seem to idolise asian cultures where the women are seen (or atleast portrayed) as more subservient and reserved and as a westerner they think they would be unique and special.

            Its not as outwardly hostile as “incel” thinking but it comes from a similar place of insecurity.
