Real-life girls aren't Moe.

Sure, a few have at least one of the traits--submissivenes or tsundereness, psychoses, dependence on some big brother figure--but very few have it all. This bugs me, because I am pathetic and want my future girlfriend to be like a character from some boring slice-of-life Moe show and repressed sexism/misogyny put in from my father has made me subconsciously prefer submissive girls.

But we do have Beholderess, who is quite Moe (Possibly the most out of any Troppette)~ And we also have Tno/Vorpy, who's Moe...in her own Yandere/Crazy way....

  • Slice-of-life ≠ boring.

    Also I'm not sure why you're capitalizing the word moe.

    I feel your pain, Chuggles. And I agree with DYRE on both counts.
  • Kichigai birthday!!
    If ever found a girl with "moe" traits in real life I would hate her so much

    @ Abyss: Because the traits can be found, to certain degrees in real life as well, and because those traits, while not really good, are desirable to some people, like me (yes, yes, I know, Unfortunate Implications abound).

    I probably wouldn't like a super-moe person in real life, to be honest. Or at least, not the whole moe package. But some traits accentuate the cuteness in a way that I like.

    ^^^^ Regarding Mikuru Asahina, her moeness is pretty much a parody (a fairly mild parody, since the Haruhi series is full of non-parody moe too, but a parody nonetheless).  Haruhi and Yuki are both extremely moe as well, and neither of them have their cuteness played up nearly as much as Mikuru.
  • Okay, looking on it, I don't want a girl with all of the traits. Just a few.

    Ninja'd by DYRE.

    Welcome to the NHK is one of my favorite series anything ever, as if I haven't said that enough times.

    Chagen, you make women moe by taking away their self-esteem and personal will.

    * submissivenes - females naturally have this, it's just cranked up to unbelievable levels in fiction. There is a difference between being passive, and being a doormat. You can get them to do this by making them afraid of you.

    * tsundereness - Generally this is frowned on in society as being a bipolar bitch. Somebody who is annoying, not somebody who is cute because they aren't owning their feelings. Once that perception changes, then it becomes a norm. Tsundere people in real life are horrible. Watch any sitcom on ABC or something, and think of that without a laugh track or any jokes.

    * psychoses - be fucking careful. Some like to torture their boyfriends, stab them, and abuse them for reasons as alien as their minds are. Psychosis is not a trait that can be nailed down to fit one's sex appeal. It's fucking dangerous. Some are black widows, and eat their husbands. Some are dis-associative with their personas, and not in the cute way, in the unable-to-survive-in-society way, in the kill your own children out of boredom and cut your boyfriend penis off with a knife way. Not all of them are sexy, most of them are just crazy and unsafe to be around.

    * dependence on some big brother figure - this can be replicated with a girl that has dependant personality disorder, and a lot of suicide/death threats to extortion her emotions into being dependant on you. To simulate the brotherhood/sisterhood relationship, just beat the shit out of her a few times to the point where she gets brain damage and becomes emotionally attached to you, or Stockholm Syndrome settles in.

    * I am pathetic and want my future
    girlfriend to be like a character from some boring slice-of-life Moe
    show -

    this will only be fun until you realise how horrible this ends up. Look up Fridge Horror, and read some reports on Spouse Abuse. Also watch Misery (1990) and Fatal Attraction for more information.
  • What Vorpy said.
  • Thirding Vorpy.

    "If ever found a girl with "moe" traits in real life I would hate her so much"

    Seconding this.
  • ...Vorpy, I don't want a mentally-broken as fuck girl who's liable to murder me.

    A perfect transition of a moe girl to a IRL girl would result in this chagen. A lot of these behaviors can only be caused by dementia, emotional scarring, abuse or even borderline insanity, they are not realistic, and thus, can only exist in fiction. Life is not a comedy, you know. It's a drama.

    Who says life isn't a comedy?

    9/11 and Hitler.

    Although my Mileage May Vary on the internet on how dramatic those things are.
  • Yeah, I find myself in Crowning Moments of Funny every day.

    ^^^ And countless other things.

    Should I go back and edit it in that I was joking? 'Cause I didn't think I'd have to.

    ^^^^ Slice-of-life, presumably, if you like to pretend that real life is a work of fiction.

    ^^ But that, mostly.
  • Real life isn't fiction, it's an extremely advanced computer simulation by God.
