im personally not a mechsplo gal [*] but i think people are dismissive of it as a subculture & microgenre in ways that feel a bit unfair to it and the women who work within the scene imo. i think art subcultures to explore sexuality are neat + evolve esp. in dialogue w/ how ppl engage w robot genres

this is partially because there are different subjects being touched upon here ... ! mechsplo often dives into the erotics of instrumentalization and dissociation. this is the connection to empty spaces (iirc). for me i'm more interested in the imprint a charmuro or norikazu situation left on me
