>They don't even like vtubing itself once the sexual component is removed
I'm going to break this down as simply as possible for you, Anon. Male attachment is psychologically linked to attraction, if you have two friends and one of them looks like a supermodel and the other looks like Gorlock the Destroyer then (all else being the same) you are going to treat the supermodel better. You can say this is a sexual component, and while technically correct it's a subconscious component that happens in the lizard-brain, not a conscious decision reached through rational thought. Now if you want to be hyper-rational about this like some high-minded faggot then all male-female interaction involves some level of sexual component because all men treat more attractive women nicer than unnattractive women, in all fields, at all times, in all spaces, for all of history. Therefore the whole fucking conversation is irrelevant. You have successfully deconstructed male existence.

Except that's obviously retarded. There being this sexual component does not nullify someone being a fan of someone, especially when the content that person makes panders specifically to that component, it is merely an inherent part of the interaction.
