Why some people put anime girl pic to their bio?
(lemmy.world)
Same reason you put a penguin in yours.
They wanted to.
I'm scandalized. It's naked!
I bet his penguin is from "A Place Further than the Universe"
Nope, it's Linux's mascot.
That's exactly what a weeb masquerading as a Linux nerd would say!
Just wanted to say, the penguins in your profile are so cute!
yeah ๐
Same reason people put movie characters, game characters or dragons in there. Because they like them, one way or the other.
Men have been using sexy bikini pic women in the bios long before lemmy. Look at any hobby forum like bodybuilding, car repair, guns, whatever.
The bikini avatars on bodybuilding forums was always very weird to me.
It's to remind them what they are bodybuilding for. To fight the bikinigirl empire. Join the resistance, fight the oppressors!
Ha! You had me in the first half.
Because they like it?
I suspect if you ask them who their bio pic is, you will get a very long explanation of who they are and why they like them.
Because they like them. I was more involved in consuming anime when I was younger and it was just based on characters you liked for whatever reason. Some people go to more extremes than others but that's the same for any hobby.
People tend to make their bio pic something they would like to fuck. Nice bio pic btw.
Tux makes nerds go wild
My pic is myself, so... I have no further argument and forget I said anything.
ooh im going to use your pick. jk. maybe.
Would
Because they like something about it.
I picked mine for nostalgia, but I like Earnest P. Worrell because he's always making some [overly complicated invention]https://youtu.be/uYMw_dlnVH0?feature=shared) that didn't need to exist, and he switches between multiple characters depending on the situation. I also like his grandiosity, integrity, and drive to do what he thinks is right. He remains positive in difficult situations, and I like his energy.
I'm old, so I grew up watching this.
Y'all have pfp?
Idk, but it's even weirder when they put a giant one on the sides and hood of their car.
Talking about itashas?
Why do you have Tux? It's the same reason. People like what they like, and as long as the PFP isn't explicit, let it ride.
To make it obvious.
I seen people have anime girl pfps/banners but in their bio?
Because why not?
