& Yuri vs. Straight RP

*Warning: This is a rant post. Read on if you dare.

I don't even know where to begin to be honest.

Well, first things first. Me, personally, when I roleplay, I rarely actually use titles like "oppa," "hyung," "noona," etc. It depends on which character I'm playing, really, but most of the time, I don't use them. They're awkward for me. If I'm roleplaying a guy, I sometimes use "hyung" but I don't think I've ever actually used "oppa." (Ps. Yes, I know the difference between all of them.) As a girl, I may play around and call guys "hyung" and sometimes I'll say "unnie" or "noona." My brain is kind of awkward because I'm actually more likely to call an older girl "noona" in an rp before I call anyone any thing else.

I'm saying all this nonsense because I realize that I usually don't join rps that accept straight and rarely do I join any that are straight only... I don't even know if I've joined one. Anyway, I'm beginning to realize that I honestly have issues with the girls in straight and straight only rps. Even with the few inbox rps that I do. Some roleplays where there's the mix, I somehow always end up talking to guys if I'm a guy. It's not by preference, honestly. It's just like the girls avoid me, I guess. It doesn't bother me either because looking through the roleplays that I've considered joining or have already joined, most of the girls are face-chasers or are simply bent on forming an otp. I don't mind it, even though I honestly don't do it. My goal is to make friends and build stories. Or build enemies. To me, I always get this eerie feeling when a girl talks to me in an rp, at least when I'm playing a guy. Sometimes, I realize I have no reason to be. Other times, I'm proven correct. I am not your prince charming, okay? We can be friends and work our way up to something more.

No, I do not find it weird that the only girl I roleplay is Amber... (I just realized this.) I mean, I roleplay other girls, too, but when I'm actually in an rp, it's her... Well, that's interesting.

Whatever...

I don't know where I was going with this rant but that's why it's a rant: There's no clear thought process, I guess.

In other news, I joined this roleplay. You Better Be. It's out to help roleplayers connect with those of similar timezones, roleplaying styles, etc. I think it's a wonderful idea and I encourage you guys to join it. If you're curious about my roleplay style (likes, dislikes, etc.) or would like to see a complete list of the roleplays I'm apart of and the characters I play, you can check my profile and stalk me hit me up. This may also help if you want to roleplay with me, but are scared or something. Don't be scared. I won't eat you. Unless I need to. >=3

I also have my roleplays listed on my profile there as well. Click here to see my profile.

I feel better now. >w<;;;
