Cultura LGBTQ (un acrónimo que se refiere a personas "lesbianas, gays, bisexuales, transgénero, queer/cuestionándose") es un aspecto ampliamente aceptado en la comunidad de VRChat; incluye, entre otras, a personas de género queer e identidades de género no binarias, así como orientaciones anatractivas (sin atracción o sin ninguna atracción).
Descripción general
VRChat es ampliamente reconocido como un espacio acogedor para personas de diversas identidades queer, y una parte importante de su base de usuarios se identifica como queer. Existen numerosas comunidades queer en la plataforma, incluida una de las más notables, "Trans Academy", una organización sin fines de lucro 501(c)3, que ha sido reconocida y apoyada por VRChat[2].
LGBTQ y VRChat
En esencia, VRChat ha apoyado constantemente a las personas LGBTQ+ fomentando un entorno inclusivo y ensalzando a los creadores queer, con muchos miembros del equipo identificándose como parte de la comunidad.
In the World Search tab, accessible through the Search tab of the Main Menu, there are default terms such as 'LGBTQ' and 'rainbow.' Additionally, one of the Quick Menu clock settings includes an "LGBTQ+ clock" option, displaying the time in a vibrant rainbow pattern.
In June 2024, VRChat updated the VRChat Home world to include multiple pride flags as well as messages of support from the staff team and was available until July 8th[3]. VRChat has also made social media posts in 2023[4][5][6] and 2024[7], observing Pride Month and recognizing the LGBTQ community beyond June.
VRChat can immerse a user, through the use of avatars that may match with one's gender identity, or experiment with other gender expressions. Avatars can range in their gender expression, ranging from feminine, androgynous, and masculine, enabling users to express themselves in ways they may not typically do or are able to in real life.
Some users may not necessarily identify with the gender their avatar presents. For instance, some cisgender men might choose female-presenting avatars simply for their aesthetic appeal or the variety of clothing, accessories, and features available. In contrast, transwomen, may prefer feminine avatars for comfort or to align more closely with their identity.
Engaging with avatars of different genders can shift perceptions of aesthetics and preferences over time. Exploring gender in VRChat is a common experience, allowing individuals to express themselves freely in a safe and supportive environment. This fosters a fluid understanding of gender that contrasts with the more cisnormative notions often seen in real life, enabling users to experiment with their identities without the constraints of societal expectations.
Gender, and the Proteus effect
The Proteus effect describes how users identify with and immerse themselves in the appearance of their avatars, often leading to changes in their behavior and self-perception in the virtual world. This phenomenon enables individuals to explore and express their gender identity in ways that might not be possible or comfortable in their everyday lives. By adopting avatars that reflect a different gender or present themselves in nontraditional manners, empowering them to embrace aspects of their identity that may have been suppressed. As users engage with diverse gender expressions in a virtual space, one can challenge and redefine their own understanding of gender, giving one a greater understanding of the gender spectrum in the real world and allowing for a more open mind on identity and expression.
