gayfishing

A similar concept to Blackfishing, gayfishing is when a straight or straight-passing male appropriates gay culture to appear more edgy or cool. An example of this is men who paint their nails (a color other than black) and get praise, whereas if a gay male did the same thing they would get slurs thrown at them.

It's insane how much Bad Bunny has been gayfishing and these NPCs just eat it up.

Armofishing

Armofishing is when someone (who is typically white / Western European) tries to appear Armenian, Middle Eastern or SWANA. This is done by getting filler and plastic surgery to achieve a specific look including almond-shaped eyes, thicker eyebrows, olive-toned skin, etc.

This concept is similar to Blackfishing and gayfishing, however these individuals do not try to look Black but simply want to look more "ethnic" in terms of their face and body.

Examples of this include Megan Fox, Kylie Jenner, Kendall Jenner, etc.

Kylie Jenner is only pretty because she is Armofishing! She looked extremely pale and PLAIN before all of the plastic surgery she got.
