      youtube can very much be a credible source. its certainly not all youtube, but that can be said about anything including teachers an# any book. it is true youtube may have numerally more uncredible stuff but that maybe due to its sheer size as a platform and ease of spam

          thats fair, i do understand the problem. but i think in a public-esq forum, having generalizations could be bad. that is a personal belief that i dont want to impose on others, im fine with giving that take (hopefully without hostility) under others in good faith

        using youtube video generalizations can be bad as it is a leading video hub. and implying its bad may lead to bad vids taking youtube more as their home while those that do put effort and work to be more reliable feeling unwelcomed

    Mario doesn’t exactly strike me as the femboy type, but maybe I just haven’t played the right Mario games.

      If you accept it’s canon that the Mario games are plays, this means Mario’s actor has definitely had gay sex. That mustache has done things.

          There’s a fan theory that Super Mario Bros 3 is actually an in universe play.

          Apparently Miyamoto confirmed it for at least Super Mario Bros 3, but the full theory usually includes the Mario Kart, Mario Party, and Mario sport games as well as a bunch of the other games. Basically, the idea is that the first game is in-universe real and the rest of the games are just a recreation of the first game with all the weird social and personal implications that would imply.

            Ah, I haven’t played SMB 3 I wasn’t even born yet when that came out 😅 I mostly played the later 3D Mario games and a few 2D ones on my DS (GBA ones too).
