Its so cute how defensive he gets when confronted by his slighty bi-curious side. I want to pepper kisses across the small of his back and then watch his face turn to aroused horror when he realises its a big burly guy doing it.
This is legit a good time to drop, this chapter is going nowhere, it's just another "one of the main characters is gay hehehe" plots, the threads aren't that interesting anymore, and frankly the fact other less-shitty comics like Gunnerkrigg don't get more than 200 replies in a thread but BCB threads survive for up to 3 days is ludicrous, surely there are bad comics that are more interesting than this shitshow.
This, this is a short chapter so I'm assuming it's going to be filler that's going to be easily skipped over. It's not like anything called world building survives Lucy's presence
This is 2005 or something, girls in highschool weren't kissing each others in a non-gay manner yet, or maybe Taeshi never had a friend in school whichever is more likely?
It don't matter, none of this matters.
I'm almost impressed by how efficiently this comic manages to bury any interest or excitement it arouses. I started coming to these threads around Eternal Flame, and while I was frustrated with the comic for all the usual reasons (inconsistent characterization, the world revolving around lucy, the resets on development between chapters) I still had fun with the over-the-top drama and angst, and coming up with fanfic-tier plot predictions.
But the abysmal pacing and the dropping of all interesting plot threads to make room for out-of-nowhere dullness has killed my optimism and interest. Now I'm not even frustrated with the comic, just frustrated with myself for reading it.

I'm in this post and I do not like it.
High school is pretty late, kids were "testing" you for being gay by the way you look at your fingernails in middle school for me, which would be when this comic takes place
why did this suddenly swerve into Daisy being bisexual? For what purpose? At least paulo had a history of possibly liking guys. Why pull Bi Daisy out the ass?
Please, don't let this be so she can suddenly start gaining feelings for Lucy.
>why did this suddenly swerve into Daisy being bisexual?
Taeshi is having doubts about her sexuality and needed a character to project her insecurities upon.
It's okay, Vero, you can like girls too. No need to be embarrassed about it!
What do you mean "this came out of nowhere"? Daisy was attempting to get Paulo to be more open about being bi, Paulo, in his extreme insecurity, took it as an insult and got up to leave. Daisy blurted out that she also likes the same sex in an attempt to level the playing field and relate to Paulo so he could feel less alone on this.
I can get not liking the plotline or thinking this is an asspull (which I don't think it is personally considering how horny Daisy is) but acting like Daisy saying something stupid/embarrassing to console someone she cares about is out of character feels like shitting on the story for the sake of shitting on it.
>Being anything but straight did lead to instant bullying back then
Are you a child? Because I remember those day very well and it was almost as gay as it is today.
Where did you live? I remember in middle school around ~2009/10 I had one friend who was openly gay and got relentlessly bullied, had rumors spread about him, the works. Anyone who associated with him (like me) also got dragged into it.
It mellowed out when I went to high school but that's not so much because of an accepting time period as much as it was because I went to a fine art's high school full of gay people.
Reminder in the late 2000's, people were still using the term "gay" to refer to anything they disliked and gay was the go to insult at the time.
Daisy has indeed been horny for a long long while. But that horniness has only ever been directed toward boys, with nary a hint that she's ever felt that way toward another girl. Hence this does, in fact come, out of nowhere.
She gets ignored by people all the time but has spent years seething about this particular one in a major contradiction to everything else she seems to feel about Mike

The only other example of her "losing" a friend is the brief period Paulo shunned her and this also upset her.
Her entire arc is being in love with Mike. She was a fricking 1st grader when she was friends with Sandy, calm down. It makes more sense that Daisy felt left behind, her best friend because a tall, thin and pretty model and entered an LDR with her first crush.

>You just don't like it because it's gay
lmfao
It makes sense you'd think that because this is Cinemaphile but I honestly think LGBT rep is awesome, this is just totally out of nowhere. It IS about the writing, Taeshi wants to include gay characters but wrote herself into a corner on that front because she didn't care about it for the first half of the comic, so she's trying to make it look gay when it really wasn't. You're defending the writing of someone who literally made a character that amounts to the main heroine, except gay. That's her whole thing.
>entire arc >unable to articulate
What on earth are you talking about? Daisy's so-called arc has always been about insecurity and personal validation. She's been quite clear that her initial displeasure toward Mike was for "stealing" her best friend away. The notion that Sandy so easily tossed her aside was a major sticking point that still upsets her whenever it's made painfully apparent Sandy could not give less of a shit about Daisy.
>What do you mean "this came out of nowhere"?
Yes, a blurt out is normal. However, if she blurted it out, she has probably come to terms with her own bisexuality, otherwise she wouldn't have been so sure about it. If she was still internally struggling but was just accepting of homosexuality, she probably would've blurted out something different.
What came out of nowhere is the bisexual Daisy development. Where is her previous attraction to women? Her looking at women skinnier and more voluptuous than her? That was always chalked up to envy, never any hint of her being attracted to those girls. Heterosexual women envying skinnier and/or more well endowed women is normal, Daisy has shown manipulative tactics to put herself above these women which is also normal heterosexual woman behavior, at least on a biological survival level. It's not shitting on the story for the sake of it. She couldn't have shown Daisy being attracted to girls before? Not her sneaking glances but being shy about it? Not her mind wandering to how genuinely beautiful she found those girls when she was envying them and being embarrassed about it? Never her having a heart to heart with Jessica despite the fact she's very good friends with her being an established fact in the comic? Jessica is one of the few LGBT characters in this comic who wasn't introduced for the sake of being LGBT, it would have been a perfect setup. This is just lazy. She's bisexual for the sake of it and her new Gay BPD furry audience is eating it up. I can't wait for the queerbaiting allegations to come out considering Paulo/Daisy is clearly endgame.
to be honest with you, as a bi woman myself who has dealt with issues of envy and whatnot; constantly looking at women's curves, comparing yourself to them, and etc, is normal for a young girl. but always thinking about it to the point you are almost obsessed? thats a lil gay.
i mean there was a whole thing about her comparing boobs to everyone and being obsessed with that, it's kind of sus lol. i dont think daisy was ever really properly hinted at being bi though, since that's all implications rather than anything direct, but to be honest i don't think it really matters. some people know theyre gay from birth, some people figure it out in school, and others figure it out when they're almost 60. just cause she hasnt displayed attraction before doesnt mean she doesnt have it in general. i think her saying "what did i just say" means it was more of a subconscious thing she has been thinking about rather than something she has been taking seriously.
A girl comparing breast sizes out of envy is a very anime thing to do. Taeshi pretty much grew up on the stuff. This is an extremely lazy retcon at absolute best and in every case yet one more example of poor writing.
i mean... yeah. i didn't say it was concrete proof lol. i do think taeshi's lazy i just don't think this is the worst example of it. like i said, i don't think daisy herself is even aware of this attraction she has, just due to her saying "what did i say?" i think it's not something she's even explored yet. it's definitely random but i dont think its the most egregious thing she's pulled out of her ass
I'm also a bi woman. Mentally ill women, particularly ones with borderline personality disorder (Taeshi has no idea how to write characters that aren't BPD coded) have a tendency to obsess over others who they feel wronged them. I've been e-stalked for years by someone with BPD. I've seen girls with BPD talk about stalking their ex's new gf and obsessing over them, not in a gay way, but in a way where they just can't let go of feeling wronged. >just cause she hasnt displayed attraction before doesnt mean she doesnt have it in general.
Of course. But that doesn't mean this isn't shitty writing. It's a visual medium. SHOW me Daisy being bisexual. Show me her attraction. Don't just fricking put it in randomly. If Daisy had shown literally any indication of being bisexual outside of envy, which is very much a thing heterosexual girls do, then I wouldn't care, but this is just shoehorned in.
i mean... yeah. i didn't say it was concrete proof lol. i do think taeshi's lazy i just don't think this is the worst example of it. like i said, i don't think daisy herself is even aware of this attraction she has, just due to her saying "what did i say?" i think it's not something she's even explored yet. it's definitely random but i dont think its the most egregious thing she's pulled out of her ass
>i just don't think this is the worst example of it.
Yeah, it's not, but as a fellow bisexual woman you have to understand how insulting this feels. Like the other anon said, it's a very lazy retcon.
yeah, i never said it wasn't lazy writing lol. i guess im just so desensitized to the shitty comic at this point that i just can't bring myself to get mad over a character being bisexual, even if there wasn't any prior foreshadowing to it.
i didn't know i was bi until i was 18, and honestly i don't think i ever came off as "gay" in high school, or ever gave myself the room to consider that i even could be. that's also why i don't think this is the worst example here, because even though fictionally you need to be more visual and do more show than tell, i wouldn't call it unrealistic. because not everyone shows the gay right away. it's different for everybody is really all i'm saying. not that it's great rep or amazing writing, just that i don't find it unbelievable.
if you want my opinion on rep i think paulo is much more stereotypical. but i don't really feel like explaining that one

Just because it's not the worst example doesn't mean it's excusable. Again, I wouldn't give a shit if she had given us a single semblance of bi Daisy other than things that can easily be seen in heterosexual women. Like the other anon said, Jessica being a lesbian was pretty heavily foreshadowed through facial expressions alone. Why couldn't she have done that for Daisy? Y'know? idk why you're so pressed on defending this
don't even get me started on paulo lmfao sure he definitely had a lot more development but he's one of the most unrealistically written bi men ever, no man insecure about his masculinity would ever act like he does about being interested in men. >inb4 so you want toxic masculinity?
nah that's ugly. it's all in the body language. he acts like a little girl. why would he be curling up and pouting in plain sight?

nah, i basically agree with you. i don't give as much of a shit about it but i can understand where you're coming from. i think it's a very obvious clue that taeshi didn't plan on daisy being bi from the get go. it's definitely a newer idea.
my problem with paulo is that he's the canonical flirt and pervert. and yeah, you see a lot of bi characters like that because people see bisexuals as more promiscuous/likely to cheat. not that bisexuals being flirts or promiscuous is a bad thing in real life, but in fiction i consider it stereotypical. i also agree his reaction to his own bisexuality is odd. i liked the one moment he had with matt, when he apologized for being so unfriendly, but any interaction after the campfire scene felt so weird to me. like why would paulo break down emotionally over matt venting to him? lots of it feels inorganic. the only thing that felt more in character for him was when he was flirting with jordan, but even then the circumstances were also weird. i feel like paulo would more than likely just straight up ask jordan instead because he's more of a direct guy. overall his character is too flip floppy and fickle for me to enjoy his discovery of his bisexuality all too much.

because Matt is one of if not the only person he feels capable of being being emotionally vulnerable with because he's not compelled to carry on his straight Chad Thunderwiener act with him like he is most everyone else? and matt's fears also likely mirrored Paulo's own I guess

You mean like she did with Jessica? Showing that Taeshi is in fact capable of foreshadowing a characters homosexually homosexuality and further highlighting the absurdity of this development?
Yeah Jessica was pretty decent foreshadowing. I didn't expect it but going back and rereading, it's clearly there. THAT'S how you foreshadow, it's like Taeshi's brain was melted after 2014 somehow.
Honestly I think a lot of this has to do with the age you were at the time. Kids are fricking cruel and they get a little better around high school. 09/10 were my hs years and I had a gay friend who got absolutely zero shit for it. Just two years earlier though I was teased relentlessly for being gay even though I wasn't.
Daisy isn't Bi at all. This is total bullshit by Taeshi so she can bait more gays to read her comic. Daisy was always crushing over guys since BCBs conception, especially over Mike.
You may think i'm joking but this is just what the western education system does, it makes your kids gay. It will be weird and strange for a kid to be straight in a few years, they will be bullied for it.
So with that in mind, why does Taeshi think it's such an embarrassing thing?
Why is this escalating? All she said was that 'she thinks girls can be really cute too. That's extremely normal for girls and a very girly thing to say.
The author hates gays and therefore cannot write them, she's only shoehorning them into the story because it's the current year and that's just what you do.
>Because she just screamed out that she's bisexual
But she didn't. Girls being able to say that other girls are cute is common, it's even expected.
I was just expecting him to turn around and say that it isn't the same. This doesn't seem like a confession of any sort yet its treated as such.
That's not kosher in 2022 because lesbians want to claim more oppression like their gay counterparts and having been widely socially acceptable undermines that
I agree, "I think girls can be really cute too" feels more like her not understanding that guys finding guys attractive is socially unacceptable compared to girls thinking girls can be cute rather then he confessing a sexual attraction to girls.
Also, Paulo being bi feels as forced as ever, but that's beside the point.
Girls doing things with other girls is whatever. Guys doing things with other guys is usually grotesque. I'm not exactly sure why. I also say this as a bi person.
I wasn't even talking about doing things with the same sex, I meant going "wow, she's so cute" is acceptable for a straight girl but a guy going "wow, he's so cute" is very, very gay.
No, you really weren't. In 1998 sure but not by then, when pro-gay shit had been in schools for almost 40 years and kids would get suspended for the SUSPICION of picking on someone for their sexuality. How fricking soft are you if you think 2008 was a bad time for being gay? It's quite literally a crime in the western world to not bow down and worship homos and you think you have it rough?
2008 was back when the big push for this thing to get accepted was still going on. There absolutely was a ton of friction being generated and kids absolutely mocked each other over it.
>How fricking soft are you if you think 2008 was a bad time for being gay?
I transferred through three different high schools in the mid to late 00s. Any kid that wasn't straight got bullied hard. Especially males. I won't say it happened at every school but it was nowhere near as accepted as it is now.
>It's quite literally a crime in the western world to not bow down and worship homos and you think you have it rough?
Again, it wasn't like this during the years the comic is taking place. If it took place after like 2014 or something then maybe. But not 2008 where gays could get roasted anywhere and nobody would suffer backlash for it.
People tend to forget that it wasn't socially acceptable until the past two decades, sure it's not the '50 but doesn't change the fact you wouldn't go around telling people you're a gay, the whole closet concept exists because they had to hide it, again Taeshi herself forgets when/where her comic takes place as there is simply no way teenagers in some small US town prior to 2010 wouldn't bully the frick out of every single homosexual in sight.
>It wasn't socially acceptable to be gay until 2010 at least >there definitely weren't gay bars and programs and publications all over the US since the 60s
No, you are conflating actual reality with your own lived experiences. Your memory starts at 2010, that doesn't mean that's when gays were accepted.
You're clearly a very confused guy and I dont blame you, I just hope you get the help you need. And I suggest you find a better site to use, you're the kind of vulnerable lonely dude who gets radicalized into shooting up supermarkets. Good luck, and take care of yourself.
>It wasn't socially acceptable to be gay until 2010 at least >there definitely weren't gay bars and programs and publications all over the US since the 60s
No, you are conflating actual reality with your own lived experiences. Your memory starts at 2010, that doesn't mean that's when gays were accepted.
There's a gradual progression of acceptance, being gay in the 2000s was way more acceptable than it was a few decades before but it wasn't like now either where every other teen thinks they're gay or trans just because it's cool
Deep down he knows being violent and bitter over something so insignificant that doesn't affect him is wrong so he's trying to cope that it doesn't happen, but he's still reluctant to break loose from his programming so he wants to worm his way out of it in a noncommittal fashion that doesn't require any real introspection or change. Its a delicate balancing act of wishing harm on people while claiming those people don't actually facing harm. Just another victim of the political industry
Whether or not being gay was socially accepted in 2008 isn't relevant here because bcb is not a period piece and shouldn't be discussed as one. Bcb has always been anime bullshit and completely detached from reality, and it is not capable of meaningfully addressing any real-world issues.
Anyway, never thought I'd say this, but this chapter is really making me appreciate Matt and Madison. They're just gay, and that's that. Congratulations to Madison for having 1 (one) thing going for her.
I don't know why you're all upset by this.
Literally the only thing people here enjoy is porn and cooming to the characters. Now any porn with Paulo and a male and Daisy with a female can be canon
>I don't know why you're all upset by this.
Because there is no actually forethought put into this.
It's more pandering to the lgtbpq+ crowd just because it's pride month and nothing more.
How does that relate to ANYTHING I just said?
Taeshi does this time and time again, ignoring whatever happened in the past just so she can draw any form of emotion from her hugbox.
...anon why do you think people are still reading this comic despite it being a literal fricking garbage heap on fire?
Hint: it's not because they enjoy any aspect of the comic itself.
>...anon why do you think people are still reading this comic despite it being a literal fricking garbage heap on fire?
Because they get horny over the characters
Which is why I'm confused why you're upset more porn opportunities have arisen

It's more like we stay around because we've already been reading it for years. Personally, I found it on a homestuck ad and as a emotionally neglected teenage girl, I liked what I saw, probably because Taeshi began writing it when she was also an emotionally neglected teenage girl. Others have probably been around longer for different reasons and hold a sentimentality for the comic. It's probably not a stretch to say this is one of the oldest webcomics still currently running. Old habits die hard. The comic used to be relatively decent, Taeshi used to be able to use the comic medium well, pic related, she used the panels to her advantage for good visual storytelling, but now she's devolved into telling instead of showing. When has Daisy shown actual attraction to girls in the main comic? This new development feels completely out of the blue. It's not hard to subtly show her admiring cute girls but trying to hide her attraction. Instead, this is what we get.
It's a literal trainwreck, you can't look away.

She's always been jealous about Mike taking Sandy away, but in general girls dabbling in bisexuality had always been a thing to the point there's a name for it: lesbian until graduation
But this argument is always funny because it's applying the context and logic of adulthood to teenagers and people always seem to forget how old this cast is. Daisy and Paulo etc. are at the stage where people first begin figuring this out.

As a proud coomer I very much prefer my porn to be as close to canon as possible, thank you very much.
Paulo is for heaping on praise and compliments until he becomes simultaneously embarrassed and horny.
He is not for listening to Daisy's moronic girly problems.
School ventilation system's broken, they have to evacuate. Luckily they're in the gym, all the characters in the classrooms already passed out and are having to be carried out and resuscitated by EMTs.
>I want to see more of Lucy getting bullied!
But anon, Lucy is a girl boss! She's strong and smart and has loads of great advice to give her friends, why would you want her to be harmed?
I'd love to see Nana's everyday life but with lucy, I'd jack my dick off and take a week vacation just to cum at every chapter
not sexually, more in a hatefrick kind of way
While this is more of a minor complaint BCB it still irks me. >the comic place in 2008 and all of the characters have smart phones (it wouldn't be out of the ordinary for one or two people to have one but I cant think if a single character who has a flip or slide phone). > half the main cast are admitting that their some LGBT to eachother in 2008
Like I know bcb is about anthropomorphic cats so its not exactly the most realistic thing ever but it feels abit off to me.
There's basically nothing other than the occasional reference to the year that indicates it takes place in 2008, it honestly feels more like the mid 2010s in many ways.
>>the comic place in 2008 and all of the characters have smart phones
This isn't true; only Mike and David do, and David's almost never shows up (David is a meme). Mike getting one to talk to Sandy was played as a signifigant gadget for him to have.
Because SuitCase is a massive b***hboy for apple products. Like, I've never seen anyone more autistic about it. and then around 2014 Taeshi got very SJWpilled.
Seems to me less like that's what he wanted and more like it's the best he thought he could get, seeing as how the whole loving relationship built on mutual respect thing seemed doomed to failure.
That said, yeah Paulo would probably top if he could get as comfortable with liking men as he is with liking women.
your summary: next page is Daisy awkwardly trying to explain herself and ending on saying she hated Mike for taking Sandy away from her
Man this is the most boring thing "Feels nice saying it after all this time" could have referred to. Daisy is the most white bread, boring ass main character, and her Sandy issues are the same way, since we never got to actually see her prior relationship with Sandy and the subject came up so rarely with no real progression.
I said this before, but this will almost certainly change nothing moving forward.

Paulo is definitely a bottom
I want to see this little homosexual get pressed by Matt
Every male in this comic is a submissive bottom until proven otherwise
Its so cute how defensive he gets when confronted by his slighty bi-curious side. I want to pepper kisses across the small of his back and then watch his face turn to aroused horror when he realises its a big burly guy doing it.
This comic is a fricking joke
This is legit a good time to drop, this chapter is going nowhere, it's just another "one of the main characters is gay hehehe" plots, the threads aren't that interesting anymore, and frankly the fact other less-shitty comics like Gunnerkrigg don't get more than 200 replies in a thread but BCB threads survive for up to 3 days is ludicrous, surely there are bad comics that are more interesting than this shitshow.
Gunnerkrigg is shit too. Anthony, Paz, and Loup ruined the comic.
I wish Taeshi would stop trying to force Paulo and Daisy together. They just do not click and so this chapter is wasting its time.
This is more about getting Paulo to stop being a pussy about his feelings than it is about getting Paulo and Daisy together
Kind of looks like both and I doubt either will stick or make any difference at all
This, this is a short chapter so I'm assuming it's going to be filler that's going to be easily skipped over. It's not like anything called world building survives Lucy's presence
Implying they're not going to bond over their gayness
Why would she be embarrassed about being Bi? All women are, it's their natural state.
This is 2005 or something, girls in highschool weren't kissing each others in a non-gay manner yet, or maybe Taeshi never had a friend in school whichever is more likely?
Wow, Taeshi. Just go ahead and take all of my investment. Truly you have earned it.
It don't matter, none of this matters.

Why are all these gays in this comic so embarrassed about liking the same gender?
Comic takes place in 2008. Being gay around that time meant being bullied for the rest of high school.
>Getting bullied
>In high school
Unless 100 people go to your high school no one gives a shit at that age
Not that anon but you got lucky, high school can be where the sexual bullying starts (verbal and/or physical) which is real nasty.
High school is pretty late, kids were "testing" you for being gay by the way you look at your fingernails in middle school for me, which would be when this comic takes place
Woops meant to reply to
I feel like it's more likely overall in middle school, but more likely to be serious (like physical assault/stalking) in high school

Taeshi is having doubts about her sexuality and needed a character to project her insecurities upon.
It's okay, Vero, you can like girls too. No need to be embarrassed about it!

What do you mean "this came out of nowhere"? Daisy was attempting to get Paulo to be more open about being bi, Paulo, in his extreme insecurity, took it as an insult and got up to leave. Daisy blurted out that she also likes the same sex in an attempt to level the playing field and relate to Paulo so he could feel less alone on this.
I can get not liking the plotline or thinking this is an asspull (which I don't think it is personally considering how horny Daisy is) but acting like Daisy saying something stupid/embarrassing to console someone she cares about is out of character feels like shitting on the story for the sake of shitting on it.
Where did you live? I remember in middle school around ~2009/10 I had one friend who was openly gay and got relentlessly bullied, had rumors spread about him, the works. Anyone who associated with him (like me) also got dragged into it.
It mellowed out when I went to high school but that's not so much because of an accepting time period as much as it was because I went to a fine art's high school full of gay people.
Reminder in the late 2000's, people were still using the term "gay" to refer to anything they disliked and gay was the go to insult at the time.
Daisy has indeed been horny for a long long while. But that horniness has only ever been directed toward boys, with nary a hint that she's ever felt that way toward another girl. Hence this does, in fact come, out of nowhere.
Her entire arc is being jealous about losing Sandy to Mike and being unable to articulate why
>salty about her friend ignoring her
>she must have wanted her white clam
b***h please
She gets ignored by people all the time but has spent years seething about this particular one in a major contradiction to everything else she seems to feel about Mike
You just don't like it because it's gay, you'd be a little less annoying if you were honest about it instead of trying to make it seem like it's about the writing
The only other example of her "losing" a friend is the brief period Paulo shunned her and this also upset her.
Her entire arc is being in love with Mike. She was a fricking 1st grader when she was friends with Sandy, calm down. It makes more sense that Daisy felt left behind, her best friend because a tall, thin and pretty model and entered an LDR with her first crush.
>You just don't like it because it's gay
lmfao
It makes sense you'd think that because this is Cinemaphile but I honestly think LGBT rep is awesome, this is just totally out of nowhere. It IS about the writing, Taeshi wants to include gay characters but wrote herself into a corner on that front because she didn't care about it for the first half of the comic, so she's trying to make it look gay when it really wasn't. You're defending the writing of someone who literally made a character that amounts to the main heroine, except gay. That's her whole thing.
>entire arc
>unable to articulate
What on earth are you talking about? Daisy's so-called arc has always been about insecurity and personal validation. She's been quite clear that her initial displeasure toward Mike was for "stealing" her best friend away. The notion that Sandy so easily tossed her aside was a major sticking point that still upsets her whenever it's made painfully apparent Sandy could not give less of a shit about Daisy.
>What do you mean "this came out of nowhere"?
Yes, a blurt out is normal. However, if she blurted it out, she has probably come to terms with her own bisexuality, otherwise she wouldn't have been so sure about it. If she was still internally struggling but was just accepting of homosexuality, she probably would've blurted out something different.
What came out of nowhere is the bisexual Daisy development. Where is her previous attraction to women? Her looking at women skinnier and more voluptuous than her? That was always chalked up to envy, never any hint of her being attracted to those girls. Heterosexual women envying skinnier and/or more well endowed women is normal, Daisy has shown manipulative tactics to put herself above these women which is also normal heterosexual woman behavior, at least on a biological survival level. It's not shitting on the story for the sake of it. She couldn't have shown Daisy being attracted to girls before? Not her sneaking glances but being shy about it? Not her mind wandering to how genuinely beautiful she found those girls when she was envying them and being embarrassed about it? Never her having a heart to heart with Jessica despite the fact she's very good friends with her being an established fact in the comic? Jessica is one of the few LGBT characters in this comic who wasn't introduced for the sake of being LGBT, it would have been a perfect setup. This is just lazy. She's bisexual for the sake of it and her new Gay BPD furry audience is eating it up. I can't wait for the queerbaiting allegations to come out considering Paulo/Daisy is clearly endgame.
to be honest with you, as a bi woman myself who has dealt with issues of envy and whatnot; constantly looking at women's curves, comparing yourself to them, and etc, is normal for a young girl. but always thinking about it to the point you are almost obsessed? thats a lil gay.
i mean there was a whole thing about her comparing boobs to everyone and being obsessed with that, it's kind of sus lol. i dont think daisy was ever really properly hinted at being bi though, since that's all implications rather than anything direct, but to be honest i don't think it really matters. some people know theyre gay from birth, some people figure it out in school, and others figure it out when they're almost 60. just cause she hasnt displayed attraction before doesnt mean she doesnt have it in general. i think her saying "what did i just say" means it was more of a subconscious thing she has been thinking about rather than something she has been taking seriously.
A girl comparing breast sizes out of envy is a very anime thing to do. Taeshi pretty much grew up on the stuff. This is an extremely lazy retcon at absolute best and in every case yet one more example of poor writing.
i mean... yeah. i didn't say it was concrete proof lol. i do think taeshi's lazy i just don't think this is the worst example of it. like i said, i don't think daisy herself is even aware of this attraction she has, just due to her saying "what did i say?" i think it's not something she's even explored yet. it's definitely random but i dont think its the most egregious thing she's pulled out of her ass
I'm also a bi woman. Mentally ill women, particularly ones with borderline personality disorder (Taeshi has no idea how to write characters that aren't BPD coded) have a tendency to obsess over others who they feel wronged them. I've been e-stalked for years by someone with BPD. I've seen girls with BPD talk about stalking their ex's new gf and obsessing over them, not in a gay way, but in a way where they just can't let go of feeling wronged.
>just cause she hasnt displayed attraction before doesnt mean she doesnt have it in general.
Of course. But that doesn't mean this isn't shitty writing. It's a visual medium. SHOW me Daisy being bisexual. Show me her attraction. Don't just fricking put it in randomly. If Daisy had shown literally any indication of being bisexual outside of envy, which is very much a thing heterosexual girls do, then I wouldn't care, but this is just shoehorned in.
>i just don't think this is the worst example of it.
Yeah, it's not, but as a fellow bisexual woman you have to understand how insulting this feels. Like the other anon said, it's a very lazy retcon.
yeah, i never said it wasn't lazy writing lol. i guess im just so desensitized to the shitty comic at this point that i just can't bring myself to get mad over a character being bisexual, even if there wasn't any prior foreshadowing to it.
i didn't know i was bi until i was 18, and honestly i don't think i ever came off as "gay" in high school, or ever gave myself the room to consider that i even could be. that's also why i don't think this is the worst example here, because even though fictionally you need to be more visual and do more show than tell, i wouldn't call it unrealistic. because not everyone shows the gay right away. it's different for everybody is really all i'm saying. not that it's great rep or amazing writing, just that i don't find it unbelievable.
if you want my opinion on rep i think paulo is much more stereotypical. but i don't really feel like explaining that one
Just because it's not the worst example doesn't mean it's excusable. Again, I wouldn't give a shit if she had given us a single semblance of bi Daisy other than things that can easily be seen in heterosexual women. Like the other anon said, Jessica being a lesbian was pretty heavily foreshadowed through facial expressions alone. Why couldn't she have done that for Daisy? Y'know? idk why you're so pressed on defending this
don't even get me started on paulo lmfao sure he definitely had a lot more development but he's one of the most unrealistically written bi men ever, no man insecure about his masculinity would ever act like he does about being interested in men.
>inb4 so you want toxic masculinity?
nah that's ugly. it's all in the body language. he acts like a little girl. why would he be curling up and pouting in plain sight?
nah, i basically agree with you. i don't give as much of a shit about it but i can understand where you're coming from. i think it's a very obvious clue that taeshi didn't plan on daisy being bi from the get go. it's definitely a newer idea.
my problem with paulo is that he's the canonical flirt and pervert. and yeah, you see a lot of bi characters like that because people see bisexuals as more promiscuous/likely to cheat. not that bisexuals being flirts or promiscuous is a bad thing in real life, but in fiction i consider it stereotypical. i also agree his reaction to his own bisexuality is odd. i liked the one moment he had with matt, when he apologized for being so unfriendly, but any interaction after the campfire scene felt so weird to me. like why would paulo break down emotionally over matt venting to him? lots of it feels inorganic. the only thing that felt more in character for him was when he was flirting with jordan, but even then the circumstances were also weird. i feel like paulo would more than likely just straight up ask jordan instead because he's more of a direct guy. overall his character is too flip floppy and fickle for me to enjoy his discovery of his bisexuality all too much.
>like why would paulo break down emotionally over matt venting to him?
because Matt is one of if not the only person he feels capable of being being emotionally vulnerable with because he's not compelled to carry on his straight Chad Thunderwiener act with him like he is most everyone else? and matt's fears also likely mirrored Paulo's own I guess
The token quotafiller baragay character?
Why are you replying to me? Go cry about it to someone else
>mfw I dealt with sexy envy throughout high school and later realized I was bi
>suddenly no longer deal with envy
>mfw no face
>She couldn't have shown Daisy being attracted to girls before? Not her sneaking glances but being shy about it?
You mean like she did with Jessica? Showing that Taeshi is in fact capable of foreshadowing a characters homosexually homosexuality and further highlighting the absurdity of this development?
Yeah Jessica was pretty decent foreshadowing. I didn't expect it but going back and rereading, it's clearly there. THAT'S how you foreshadow, it's like Taeshi's brain was melted after 2014 somehow.
Honestly I think a lot of this has to do with the age you were at the time. Kids are fricking cruel and they get a little better around high school. 09/10 were my hs years and I had a gay friend who got absolutely zero shit for it. Just two years earlier though I was teased relentlessly for being gay even though I wasn't.
Daisy isn't Bi at all. This is total bullshit by Taeshi so she can bait more gays to read her comic. Daisy was always crushing over guys since BCBs conception, especially over Mike.
You may think i'm joking but this is just what the western education system does, it makes your kids gay. It will be weird and strange for a kid to be straight in a few years, they will be bullied for it.
So with that in mind, why does Taeshi think it's such an embarrassing thing?
Is the author of this comic American? If so, which state?
Taeshi HATES americans
She's in israelite York City she does not count as American
Why is this escalating? All she said was that 'she thinks girls can be really cute too. That's extremely normal for girls and a very girly thing to say.
The author hates gays and therefore cannot write them, she's only shoehorning them into the story because it's the current year and that's just what you do.
Because she just screamed out that she's bisexual for literally no reason besides trying to not make him run off
>Because she just screamed out that she's bisexual
But she didn't. Girls being able to say that other girls are cute is common, it's even expected.
I was just expecting him to turn around and say that it isn't the same. This doesn't seem like a confession of any sort yet its treated as such.
It's in response to Paulo getting embarrassed to finding the stretching guys attractive
It's very clear what she meant here
Pretty sure this whole chapter is taeshi making her projections canon https://twitter.com/Taeshi/status/1315557410346536961
More like naked pandering to the readers who gush over that.
That's not kosher in 2022 because lesbians want to claim more oppression like their gay counterparts and having been widely socially acceptable undermines that
I agree, "I think girls can be really cute too" feels more like her not understanding that guys finding guys attractive is socially unacceptable compared to girls thinking girls can be cute rather then he confessing a sexual attraction to girls.
Also, Paulo being bi feels as forced as ever, but that's beside the point.
Girls doing things with other girls is whatever. Guys doing things with other guys is usually grotesque. I'm not exactly sure why. I also say this as a bi person.
I wasn't even talking about doing things with the same sex, I meant going "wow, she's so cute" is acceptable for a straight girl but a guy going "wow, he's so cute" is very, very gay.
It made Paulo imagine Daisy engaging in steamy sapphic sex and his raging boner is now visible to Daisy through his fur
>You were bullied for being gay in 2008
No, you really weren't. In 1998 sure but not by then, when pro-gay shit had been in schools for almost 40 years and kids would get suspended for the SUSPICION of picking on someone for their sexuality. How fricking soft are you if you think 2008 was a bad time for being gay? It's quite literally a crime in the western world to not bow down and worship homos and you think you have it rough?
2008 was back when the big push for this thing to get accepted was still going on. There absolutely was a ton of friction being generated and kids absolutely mocked each other over it.
>How fricking soft are you if you think 2008 was a bad time for being gay?
I transferred through three different high schools in the mid to late 00s. Any kid that wasn't straight got bullied hard. Especially males. I won't say it happened at every school but it was nowhere near as accepted as it is now.
>It's quite literally a crime in the western world to not bow down and worship homos and you think you have it rough?
Again, it wasn't like this during the years the comic is taking place. If it took place after like 2014 or something then maybe. But not 2008 where gays could get roasted anywhere and nobody would suffer backlash for it.
People tend to forget that it wasn't socially acceptable until the past two decades, sure it's not the '50 but doesn't change the fact you wouldn't go around telling people you're a gay, the whole closet concept exists because they had to hide it, again Taeshi herself forgets when/where her comic takes place as there is simply no way teenagers in some small US town prior to 2010 wouldn't bully the frick out of every single homosexual in sight.
Kek you have no clue what you're talking about
Take a break from Twitter
>Someone called me a gay and I had to get my parents to move to another state because it upset me so much, trust me I know what bullying is
We used to break your fingers, gay.
>we
You can't call customer service without panicking boy
You're clearly a very confused guy and I dont blame you, I just hope you get the help you need. And I suggest you find a better site to use, you're the kind of vulnerable lonely dude who gets radicalized into shooting up supermarkets. Good luck, and take care of yourself.
>It wasn't socially acceptable to be gay until 2010 at least
>there definitely weren't gay bars and programs and publications all over the US since the 60s
No, you are conflating actual reality with your own lived experiences. Your memory starts at 2010, that doesn't mean that's when gays were accepted.
Whatever it is you're trying to cope with it's okay to be yourself these days
There's a gradual progression of acceptance, being gay in the 2000s was way more acceptable than it was a few decades before but it wasn't like now either where every other teen thinks they're gay or trans just because it's cool
Why are you trying to disprove the fact that someone could catch shit for coming out as gay or bi in 2008?
Deep down he knows being violent and bitter over something so insignificant that doesn't affect him is wrong so he's trying to cope that it doesn't happen, but he's still reluctant to break loose from his programming so he wants to worm his way out of it in a noncommittal fashion that doesn't require any real introspection or change. Its a delicate balancing act of wishing harm on people while claiming those people don't actually facing harm. Just another victim of the political industry
>Mike gets btfo'd in his own chapter
Mike suicide arc when?
god, i fricking hate chan culture
As you should.
>BTFO'd
Nah he's gonna be doing the blowing.
To who?
Whether or not being gay was socially accepted in 2008 isn't relevant here because bcb is not a period piece and shouldn't be discussed as one. Bcb has always been anime bullshit and completely detached from reality, and it is not capable of meaningfully addressing any real-world issues.
Anyway, never thought I'd say this, but this chapter is really making me appreciate Matt and Madison. They're just gay, and that's that. Congratulations to Madison for having 1 (one) thing going for her.
Madison is just the angry lesbian stereotype while Matt is Bigger, Gayer Mike.
You guys are STILL reading this?
Yes, and you should too.
haha yeah
I think it could pretty easily be both
Yes. I like it.
Why do only some of them wear clothes
Because
>they should be together because they're both bisexual
I want to commit felony assault in the state of New York aganst Taeshi.
I love this fricking comic
That is unfortunate but hopefully there will be a cure discovered within your lifetime.
I don't know why you're all upset by this.
Literally the only thing people here enjoy is porn and cooming to the characters. Now any porn with Paulo and a male and Daisy with a female can be canon
But I've always been into Paulo x Matt anyway
I ship Daisy X abuse.
>I don't know why you're all upset by this.
Because there is no actually forethought put into this.
It's more pandering to the lgtbpq+ crowd just because it's pride month and nothing more.
It's been going on for years newbie
How does that relate to ANYTHING I just said?
Taeshi does this time and time again, ignoring whatever happened in the past just so she can draw any form of emotion from her hugbox.
Please don't tell me you expect forethought to be made in this shitty comic and are getting angry over it
It didn't even have that in the 2000s
...anon why do you think people are still reading this comic despite it being a literal fricking garbage heap on fire?
Hint: it's not because they enjoy any aspect of the comic itself.
>...anon why do you think people are still reading this comic despite it being a literal fricking garbage heap on fire?
Because they get horny over the characters
Which is why I'm confused why you're upset more porn opportunities have arisen
Ah, you're one of those "coomer" types.
Nevermind.
There's no other reason you'd continue following this comic
Speak for yourself. The art's too ugly to get aroused over unless you have some seriously low standards. The insanity of everything behind BCB invites endless b***hing.
Ok so why do you read this shit comic you hate reading
First time? These threads have been autistically irony poisoned for a while
>hate the art
>hate the story
>hate the characters
>hate the community
>I just read it ironically bro!!
It's more like we stay around because we've already been reading it for years. Personally, I found it on a homestuck ad and as a emotionally neglected teenage girl, I liked what I saw, probably because Taeshi began writing it when she was also an emotionally neglected teenage girl. Others have probably been around longer for different reasons and hold a sentimentality for the comic. It's probably not a stretch to say this is one of the oldest webcomics still currently running. Old habits die hard. The comic used to be relatively decent, Taeshi used to be able to use the comic medium well, pic related, she used the panels to her advantage for good visual storytelling, but now she's devolved into telling instead of showing. When has Daisy shown actual attraction to girls in the main comic? This new development feels completely out of the blue. It's not hard to subtly show her admiring cute girls but trying to hide her attraction. Instead, this is what we get.
It's a literal trainwreck, you can't look away.
Evidence that Paulo could be a good and thoughtful person if he just stopped being such an butthole at random
I miss cool Jasmine and boyfriend Paulo
Wow you're just like me. I think Piece of Cake was just starting when I finished catching up. Homestuck not only has ruined me for simply reading it, but by also introducing me to this shitty cat comic. Damn.
Because I enjoy b***hing about it with other like-minded people. Hatewatching isn't exactly a novel concept. My question is why are you here, on a Cinemaphile thread, complaining about negativity?
I’m here to coom
honestly my autistic brain won't let me stop reading until i know how this shitstorm ends.
The porn opportunities are the same as they were before, since when do porn artists care about canon sexuality?
Are there any actual hints that Daisy was into girls before? Aside from the non-canon scribbles where Taeshi is just projecting. I remember some anon talking about the subtle hints that Jessica was a lesbian, but I have my doubts that anything like that existed for Daisy.
She's always been jealous about Mike taking Sandy away, but in general girls dabbling in bisexuality had always been a thing to the point there's a name for it: lesbian until graduation
But this argument is always funny because it's applying the context and logic of adulthood to teenagers and people always seem to forget how old this cast is. Daisy and Paulo etc. are at the stage where people first begin figuring this out.
>The porn opportunities are the same as they were before, since when do porn artists care about canon sexuality?
As a proud coomer I very much prefer my porn to be as close to canon as possible, thank you very much.
Getting horny for the characters is more a side effect of the Stockholm syndrome than anything else
It's okay to just like things even if they're unpopular
I have no string feelings one way or another about this comic.

>Prove it. Let's have a threesome with Lucy.
Has summary anon forsaken us?
he hasn't shown up in a while
They probably nabbed him
Which makes sense that they are likely the ones posting these threads no one wants
He's dead.
He got run over by a truck
Paulo is for heaping on praise and compliments until he becomes simultaneously embarrassed and horny.
He is not for listening to Daisy's moronic girly problems.
Actually based
>finding someone on Cinemaphile who actually likes praise as a thing and not the typical bullying fetish
Holy shit, it's a miracle
Exceedingly based
Is this some reverse BDSM fetish? Because ditch the gay undertones and I'd definitely be into that.
???? is this an edit
no it's a panel from the BCI where Paulo gives Mike a happy ending and they both agree never to talk about it again
is this legit from a BCI and if so which one
The one where Paulo gives Mike a handjob
>regrets coming out
many such cases
Why do they look like they're not getting enough air
School ventilation system's broken, they have to evacuate. Luckily they're in the gym, all the characters in the classrooms already passed out and are having to be carried out and resuscitated by EMTs.
If you used the BCB font it would've been perfect.
Where can I get that font at? I've been wanting it for a long time but I don't even know what it's called.
Me neither, I just remember the link to it was posted in these threads a while ago. Ask
I think he knows.

No its a shitpost you doofuses.
No shit but there are people who fetishize drowning is what they're talking about
its stupid but i laughed
mine, but i do not get sexual pleasure from this image
Paulo doesn't save the day this time like he did with Lucy?
Woah, way to make it political, dude.
Will Abbey ever be relevant again?
Matt should just rape all the guys until they are gay or bi
Matt's too caring to be a rape kind of guy, but it probably would be actually good for Paulo if he got bent by him
Which of the lesbians should help Daisy accept her sexuality?
Jess ties Daisy to her bed. Madison is only allowed to watch.
Tess and Amaya.
Amaya's a boy.
What did Amaya do to make you hate her so much you wish being a troon on her?
>Then you have stuff like OOPs which has a Mod with a hate boner so bad they delete threads on
Reminds me of TwoKinds
is dogs = black people still a thing or did that get done away with? that track dog with the hair is looking kind of cute
Yeah, I recall Teashi drawing a human version of Daisy, and she was black
geez, I looked at the last page because I thought this prostitute was confessing to him or something. Literal nothingburger.
>Paulo
What a gay
That's no way to speak to the protagonist of BCB
Given that pic, I do hope you are not implying that Lucy would be a worthwhile trade.
Can't believe the candy bowl dead, how will the bitter sweet cope with it?
At least this page gave us more embarrassed Daisy images
I really thought Daisy was going to explain that you can still appreciate when someone looks nice without being attracted to them.
Not gay enough for Pride Month(tm)
When do we get to see white cat suffer again?
They could be a cute couple if Paulo stopped trying so hard to be a "lad"
Not soon enough. Hurry the stupid Gaylo and Gaysi plot along, I want to see more of Lucy getting bullied!
Built for suffering.
>I want to see more of Lucy getting bullied!
But anon, Lucy is a girl boss! She's strong and smart and has loads of great advice to give her friends, why would you want her to be harmed?
I'd love to see Nana's everyday life but with lucy, I'd jack my dick off and take a week vacation just to cum at every chapter
not sexually, more in a hatefrick kind of way
>if only you knew how bad things really are

While this is more of a minor complaint BCB it still irks me.
>the comic place in 2008 and all of the characters have smart phones (it wouldn't be out of the ordinary for one or two people to have one but I cant think if a single character who has a flip or slide phone).
> half the main cast are admitting that their some LGBT to eachother in 2008
Like I know bcb is about anthropomorphic cats so its not exactly the most realistic thing ever but it feels abit off to me.
There's basically nothing other than the occasional reference to the year that indicates it takes place in 2008, it honestly feels more like the mid 2010s in many ways.
Tae dragged the comic out too long; that's pretty much the only real reason it takes place so long ago. It's better to just not think about it imo.
>>the comic place in 2008 and all of the characters have smart phones
This isn't true; only Mike and David do, and David's almost never shows up (David is a meme). Mike getting one to talk to Sandy was played as a signifigant gadget for him to have.
Wait doesn't paulo have one?
No. When did he ever use one?
Because SuitCase is a massive b***hboy for apple products. Like, I've never seen anyone more autistic about it. and then around 2014 Taeshi got very SJWpilled.
This means that half the main cast (Sue and David don't count) is gey. That's moronic.
Cry about it
Realistically, who would top?
They're both bottoms, but Paulo is the bottomest of bottoms
Paulo
Mike flat out says he wants females to use him in whatever way they want he's the the biggest bottom in the whole series
Seems to me less like that's what he wanted and more like it's the best he thought he could get, seeing as how the whole loving relationship built on mutual respect thing seemed doomed to failure.
That said, yeah Paulo would probably top if he could get as comfortable with liking men as he is with liking women.
Man this is the most boring thing "Feels nice saying it after all this time" could have referred to. Daisy is the most white bread, boring ass main character, and her Sandy issues are the same way, since we never got to actually see her prior relationship with Sandy and the subject came up so rarely with no real progression.
I said this before, but this will almost certainly change nothing moving forward.
>loser
How do you misspell "Chad" this badly? He's a loser now, being Lucy's little guard dog.
He's popular now and that's got him pussywhipped, he was better as a loner. tone down your insecurity and what I'm saying would have been obvious
Yeah I was with you I just disagreed on the label.
>tone down your insecurity
Anon there's no need to be hurtful
realistically picrel
Every male and almost every female in this comic.
Think of it as a mirror to the authors mind.
reminder that these are children
No, they're kittens and pups, you filthy animal frickers
I want it
Abbey isn't gay. He's got someone else he can hatefrick though
don't care still want it
your summary: next page is Daisy awkwardly trying to explain herself and ending on saying she hated Mike for taking Sandy away from her
I miss loser Augustus
>huge Daisy
What did they mean by this??
SHE BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEG
A big girl, with big desires
can this be real?
I'd be more into Daisy is she was heug
>SBBW Daisy
I'm listening...
Why did Taeshi make the horniest characters in her comic bi? Is she trying to say something?
Aight guys, what's on the next page?
I'll tell you tomorrow
Abbey was so bad in the sack that Daisy stopped believing a man could ever satisfy her. What are you doing Paulo, get on top of that!
I used to see this shit in ads everywhere but never picked it up cause it looked moronic and for teenage girls, what was with that
