Why no gay?

Someone please explain to me (convincingly) why there is no gay (non-cartoon) board on 4chan when there is at least one everywhere else. If you succeed, you'll have convinced me that not having a gay board here for people such as myself is good for people such as myself and 4chan overall. If you fail, plz put up a gay board kthxbai

I have no convincing argument, but I support the move for a /gay/, or /sexy male/, or /fg/ board.  As if 4chan isn't gay enough to get use out of it.  More gayness now!

somebody can't count 5

>>5
Somebody can't write "somebody can't count TO 5"

/fg/ NOW!

/b/ is right there. pretty much everyone on /b/ is a fag, so you will fit right in.

>>8

Agree.  We already have /b/, and /b/ will provide all the gayness you could need.

Hey, why not have a /sexy men/ section. It should keep more of it out of /b/ because the novelty wears off.

>>8
1) /b/ moves way too fast to be able to sweep up all of the quality let alone FIND any

2) not enough gay on /b/ its all 'elohellll gaizz lets raid teh other internetzzzzzz'

3) Ever since they put in mu cgl co and all that shit we'd been suggesting they put in a sexy male board but here we are months later and as usual the moderation fails to deliver, the only explanation I can think of is that the people spamming cp in b and all over the boards are to blame since they take up all their time though its not as if adding the board wouldnt take 3 whole seconds

I'd like to point out that this benefits all you /b/tards who dislike the gay threads.
If dick in another guy makes you uncomfortable, "turns you off," or causes you to go SAGESAGESAGE I'd suggest supporting this.

>>12
FUCKING SIGNED

Actually, I'd more just say it's only fair.  We have /s/ for women; we should also have a board for men.  Not just to benefit the gays, but to benefit the straight individuals among the non-existent female 4chaners.

It's not like it would change /b/ significantly, though.  We still get women there, don't we?

Moot and the mods don't have to do anything for all you moaning, ungrateful, bitches.  Maybe Moot hates fags? 

>>14
Or maybe moot hates homophobes and would rather they spam /b/ all day.

>>14
How do you know moot's not gay?

>>14
>>15
Moot is just too lazy to make new boards. There have been interest for paranormal board for months, but nothing has happened so far.

>>14
That may be true, yes. BUT:
a.) Still, it would be nice if he did :) <3<3<3
and
b.) There is no reason why he SHOULDN'T, to which we all can agree I'm sure.

>>18
Oh and yes, I did totally just ignore that "maybe moot hates fags" part. It just doesn't seem like a plausible reason for the non-existence of /fg/ or whatever it may or may not be called.

>>17
I don't know if it's laziness, or business.  Still, you have a point.

Likewise, how long are the "trial" boards going to remain on "trial?"  It's been five months.  /co/ is closing in on 300K get; /mu/ has passed 90K and /tv/ is close on it; /cgl/ is nearly 80K; /ck/ is over 50K now, with /n/ not far behind; and /an/ is coming up on 40K.  OTOH, /po/ hasn't cracked 25k yet, and /sp/ isn't even to 20K.

Is it a six-month trial, or what?  I never saw a duration mentioned.  It will be interesting to see where the cut is, if any.  For comparison, of the boards yet to reach 1M, /s/ is in the 600Ks; /r/ in the 500Ks; /gif and /h/ in the 300Ks; /d/, /k/, and /m/ are in the 200Ks; /c/, /cm/, /e/, /g/, /o/, /t/, /w/, and /y/ are all in the 100Ks; /hr/, /u/, and /wg/ are under 100K; and /p/ has less than four thousand more posts than /po/.

because most people aren't gay and your niche is fulfilled elsewhere. most people like food, most people like animals, most people....

...and most people HERE like anime, games and hentai of all wierd kinds, so your gay sex stuff has a place like you said. That's the great thing about internets. For now a /fg/ or /gay/ board would probably either go waaaaaaaay downhill with ad spam, have noone with the balls to moderate it, or just be half-abandoned.

btw, any /fg/-like imageboards for comparative purposes? I'm not gay i swear ;;>.>

>>21
Your shitty emoticon at the end of your claims surely makes them seem credible and doesn't make you look like you came straight from gaya.

>>21
what the bloody hell are you rambling about
i couldnt even understand half the stuff you said

I'm willing to bet this WILL happen.. but in about three to four years.

>>21
FAGGOTSPEAK

because it would be gay, duhhhh

Please explain to me why there should be a gay board. If you succeed, chances are you wouldn't have succeeded because the concept of a gay board is gay. Please shut up and suck dicks. kthxbai

>>21 is right.

There's just not enough demand for it.  If there was, there would be a board.  Not many 4channers want a naked men board.

>>28
also keep in mind, there are NO hardcore porn boards on 4chan.  Even with /s/, "keep hardcore to a minimum" is right there in the rules.  If you want a gay board, keep making threads like this, suggesting it when we have 4chan irc fireside chats, and get others to show their support.

>>29
IDEA!!!!

/HARDGAY/ BOARD

>>28
Given the presence of /cm/ and /y/, and that /y/ has a higher post-count than /u/ at this point, I'm not so sure about your assertion.  Especially if it wasn't just "gay," but "sexy men."

>>29
Who said anything about hardcore?  All I saw was people ask for an equivalent to /s/ which would allow men.

At any rate, I'll bet /sm/ (well, maybe *that* wouldn't be such a good name for it) would be more active than /p/ or /po/.

moot's not a fag, so it's unlikely that he would want such a board.

>>32
Explain /y/ and /cm/.

>>33
animu

>>33
4chan is sort of supposed to have all categories of anime stuff and perversions and /y/ and /cm/ falls in that category.

First off, I'm kind of playing devil's advocate here, as I'm a straight male.  I just think it would be fair to have a male equivalent of /s/.

>>34
>>35
But it stands to reason that at least SOME of the people who are interested in yaoi and bishounen would be interested in sexy pics of real men.

Besides, if they were JUST covering all the bases, with regard to "anime stuff and perversions," there would be a guro board on 4chan.
