it lacks the nuance that bdd passoid had. the amount of people who are knowingly, and willingly “larping” and not just severely mentally ill and unable to see themselves clearly in the mirror is rather low id think. the most catty people arent gonna larp around niche tranny spaces for attention, theyre on tiktok and shit.

i get that sometimes its hard to believe people arent faking it for attention, but someone can say that they feel ugly and mean it even while theyre fishing for attention. i know ive done that before. made a post with an attention baiting title, knowing its attention baiting, but legitimately believing it and desperately just wanting someone to tell me im wrong. now, that never happens for me really, i just get sad faces and hug emojis but thats besides the point.

tldr: honlarper is stupid term that lacks empathy and likely applies to almost no one

    Real honlarpers exist, BDD Passoid and Honlarper are different terms for different people, people just decided to start using honlarper to describe BDD Passoids for some reason

      is there even a nameable example of a proven honlarper? i feel like its mostly people projecting this idea that someone who looks better than them but doesnt think so must be evil instead of just mentally ill
