Hi everyone! I like the posts so far, but I’m wondering: What exactly is a gooner girl? The gifs don’t seem to have anything in common other than being relatively vanilla heterosexual media, and the wider interwebs aren’t immediately defining it either.
If “gooner girl” is too simplistic and this isn’t enough of a post to be worth responding to yet, then here’s another question: What does “gooner girl” (or “gooner” or “goon”, etc.) mean to you personally?
I hope it’s alright to post this here. The rules didn’t say much. Cheers!
I’m curious, was this inspired by r/GoonetteHub?
I think the biggest issue has ultimately been keeping women around. I have an alt account I used to post on, but it felt very pointless once the OC communities like GoneWild started allowing OnlyFans accounts with few or 0 comments and interaction to start flooding the communities. I went back to NSFW discord servers with mid-sized communities, and haven’t looked back since.
Don’t know about GoonetteHub!
Not tuned into the Discord NSFW scene. Maybe I should be. Could you clue me in?
I think this failed because I’m just not well enough tuned in to what women wanted out of it. I do think there are women here. Though they’re quiet about it.
Haha GoonetteHub used to be pretty great, but less so nowadays.
Discord is really hit or miss. Most of them are just friends groups with a ‘NSFW selfies’ section. It just feels better from the poster’s perspective I suppose. Like, I can get 100 upvotes and a few nice comments on Lemmy, but that’s really it. In a discord group of 20ish people though, each comment and reply is a lot more personable and feels more meaningful even though there’s less. I think the continuance of the same conversation(s) across multiple pics/vids helps keep interest. Like, a Lemmy post that references another Lemmy post tends to get quite a bit of traction. People like conversations more than a few words, and Lemmy struggles badly with that.
Maybe it’s just my perspective on things as a bi F, but nearly all the non-OF women here I’ve liked are gone (SensuallyLynn for example). So now even if I went back to posting here, I’d be doing it out of some sort of communal obligation rather than personal enjoyment.
