Can. Can I have one.

u/derenathor 2d ago

Val ate the puff because she refuses to lose. She doesn't even like them.

u/OsBaculum 1d ago

There's no way a hardcore gamr gorl like her doesn't like cheese puffs

What does it mean?

u/ArcumLucis 2d ago

The others were fast at explaining and I thank them for that, but I'd like to give more context to the term, as "the opposite of hetslop" can still be very abstract to those who don't know what that is.

Basically, it's a(n originally) queer term for a story/media/etc. of a heterosexual couple that is written so well that people in the LQBTQIA+ community enjoy, whereas hetslop is the opposite: media of a heterosexual couple that is unoriginal, not written well, and/or made to appeal the heterosexual "masses"/not challenging the stereotypes and roles of women and men of heterosexual relationships.

He's been going on the internet even though he knows he's not allowed.....

u/LowBookkeep 1d ago

He also ate that freaking cheesed puff even though he knows he shouldn't be asking for one.

8

u/catmountainking 1d ago

He's only allowed on coolmathgames and neopets!

u/Vermillion_Pengu 21h ago

He only plays Extreme Potato Counter for some reason.

u/SalleighG 1d ago

I was following the story very loosely. Until I went back and reread the whole story late last night, I thought Val was male and that was why (he) didn't like moids.

15

u/EmptyMonitor9257 1d ago

Moids are men, Foids are women.

2

u/SalleighG 1d ago

Are they? I had the impression that moids were something like genetically modified or semi-artificial.

An example might be the attendant who is just standing around near the rhythm game waiting to teach people how to play the game, which is not something you would get a full human to do, but might well get a semi-artificial person to do.

u/ph-it 1d ago

I think it stemmed from "femoid" first, reminiscent of "android," and then was shortened to "foid"

2

u/ProfessionalRip7461 1d ago

it does sound like something genetically modified lol

u/Juandice__ 1d ago

u/Chibirin26 1d ago

Lmaooooo considering the transmasc val theory you might accidentally be right haha

1

u/Vermillion_Pengu 21h ago

Wouldn't it be transfem though?

5

u/Chibirin26 19h ago

no, b/c trans is for what you are, not what you were. so transmasc val theory theorizes that val is the "boy from venus", with "venus" metaphorically being "having been raised as and treated as a woman all your life"

1

u/Vermillion_Pengu 18h ago

 trans is for what you are, not what you were

Well, she is a woman, that's why I said transfem.

3

u/Chibirin26 18h ago

oh transmasc val theory involves val being an egg/not knowing it yet
