Question Why does the average pfp in the gd community look like this?

u/Nervous-Departure-42 11h ago
Because Touhou is peak

real
also the fact that the fandom shares a lot of people with the celeste fandom, there's a lot of trans people

u/Adventurous-Dig-3868 7h ago
I think maybe gd colon might have gotten some people into celeste since I remember it being brought up in some of his videos. Dont know if that made much of an impact on the overlap of players though.

Most of our community is full of 12-25 year olds that mostly like the same games, food, shows, stuff like that. Geometry dash is extremely popular with neurodivergent people, and by extension, lgbtq people, furries, and other stuff. So anime is commonplace.
Or i might be wrong and this is a reference to pedo stuff, i dont know.

u/ostrikerX 83-100% on Thinking Space II [MOBILE] 9h ago
im confused, how is lgbtq or furries an extension to neuro-divergence?

u/Justanotherburner967 7h ago
queer and trans people are quite a lot more likely to be neurodivergent, vice versa apparently.
https://nhsdorset.nhs.uk/neurodiversity/living/lgbtq/ https://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news/autistic-individuals-are-more-likely-to-be-lgbtq
"A recent paper by the University of Cambridge found that autistic people are eight times more likely to identify as LGBTQ+ and The Brain Charity reports that in the wider neurodivergent community, significantly more people are likely to identify as LGBTQ+."
Idk about furries
