Yes, thank god I'm not the only one!

I'm sick of the reaction that "You're a prude if you don't like fanservice."

Well, tough shit. Most of the time, it's impractical, it adds nothing to the plot and characters, and it's just really blatantly obvious pandering to teh fans.

And it just feels skeevy to me, most of the time. (Even male fanservice.) Female fanservice has an extra layer of "Do not want" for me, even though I'm bi, because it's clear it's NOT for me.

Not liking ridiculous costumes isn't prudish.

Hell, I'm a straight guy and I don't like most fanservice. It feels cheap, dishonest, and skeevy. Worse, it's kind of offensive to me, because it feels like the creators have a really fucked-up image of what I, the straight guy, am like. They think I like cheap, dishonest, and skeevy, and that I consider tits or panty shots or whatever to be more important than narrative. That's a lousy thing to be called by strangers, you know?

That said, I do think there's ways to do fanservice well. When it doesn't come at the expense of story or character, when it feels authentic within the universe of the show, and when it's got a bit of self-awareness... then it's not so bad, and I can enjoy a little eye candy without feeling jerked out of the story or having my intelligence insulted.

Yeah. There's a fine line between a character dressing a certain way because it feels like their character would like to show off her body *for herself* and a character wearing practically nothing because boobs. Lately it feels like most things don't even try to *pretend* it's the former. And I think it's totally fine to feel a bit uncomfortable or unhappy about it.
