It's the yuri equivalent of the Seme in yaoi

>>1884168
in japan, (mostly in yuri culture) they use the termn "tachi" to describe the female who takes the dominant or most active role in a relationship, while the submissive or more pasive female is refered as "neko"

>>1884168
Yuri isn't quite as rigid in its dynamics as yaoi, but being Japanese, still derives a bit from its sexual dynamics. So the tachi (sword) plays the dominant role, in contrast to the passive neko.

So yeah, you might see some princes or tomboys or butches if the author decides to craft that kind of relationship. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

>>1884168
Wouldn't that be a bishoujo or something? I don't know.

Overwhelmingly submissive, so neko.

I think Nanoha might be dominant one

>>1884606
Yes, but the genre isn't close enough to warrant it outside of bdsm so most of it is loose.

And unto this, Shizuna, destined to wear the jeweled Etoile pendant of Astraea upon a troubled heart. It is I who alone can tell thee of her saga. Let me tell you of the days of grand yuri.

Saddle up and ride back to the days when the neko were untamed and the tachis were still wild.

if you mean the people who lurk in this board i guess you could call them yurifags but thats more like an american-ish term that only aplies here in 4chan.

Outside of 4chan the males who like yuri would be called yuridanshi (the yuri equivalent to "fudanshi" in yaoi culture) and the females i guess could be called yurijoshi ? (as the yuri equivalent to fujoshi in yaoi?)

So judging by this thread I assume "Tachi" just means "the dominant one" and not necessarily physically masculine?

Does Remilia Scarlet as portrayed in most doujins count?

In Japan, "tachi" (sword) and "neko" (cat) are used in roughly the same way as "femme" and "butch", although it has less to do with appearance than those terms, and more to do with the dynamic of the relationship.

Considering Haruka is habitually the damsel in distress for Michiru to save and the latter is the more decisive of the two, probably not...

But, she's really boyish so she'll get labeled that way regardless.

Then again, Haruka is more dedicated to their work whereas Michiru's focus is on their relationship.

We recently broke up but I just did whatever I wanted when it came to sex at first. Developed one hell of a poker face from it though. On to finding one who actually loves me this time I guess. Got tired of being dom all the time and felt pretty unwanted after awhile. But my sex drive was/is a lot higher then hers since she's a couple years older.

>>Was at our friends house, a guy who liked her was there and wouldnt leave her alone.
>>Had her in my lap in a chair under a blanket, holding hands.
>>I'm bored and everyone's playing PS4
>>She moves our hands in her lap
>>Whispered to her; "Is that an invitation?"
>>Slips hand down her panties
>>She got so mad, tried to move my hand out
>>Told her she if she doesn't want to get caught she should stop resisting or someones going to notice.
>>That cute panicked embarrassed face
>>Guy starts talking to her asking random shit.
>>I'm grinning like a mother fucker on the inside as she's trying to answer him in a normal tone.
>>He finally gets up and goes in another room, other two friends are not paying attention playing PS4.
>>She's soaked at this point and hiding her lower part of her face in the blanket.
>>I stop
>>Her fucking face when
>>Told her to beg and I would finish her
>>She cuddles up to me more
>>She grabs my other hand whispered in my ear "Please" a few times.
>>Music to my ears
>>Finish her and she makes some bs excuse that she's tired so we left, went home and had sex
Did stuff like that for awhile when we first started.

If she was getting dressed I would just come up behind her and push her down on the bed and kiss her all over sometimes being playful or if we were on the couch, or lift her onto the counter and tease her if she was cooking-- things like that. Being dom is fun and all, but can get boring if you never get to be sub once in awhile. She wanted all the love and sex but never gave any back which hurt the most.

Haruka was voiced by Megumi Ogata in the original and by Junko Minagawa in Crystal. Both are actresses that often play male roles, and female roles that are supposed to sound kinda gruff or "manly". Just look them up on ANN or MAL or something, you'll get it.

This bump brought to you by Tachi in a can

>>2019960
Same

>>1946802
There's nothing androgynous about the tachi in her art. They are perfectly feminine females who wear men clothings.

It's interesting that if one of the partners in a yuri ship looks masculine and about the same age, people seem to assume that's the tachi, yet if it's a *younger* tomboy they're always submissive.

Then you have the whole complicated thing of the feminine one being a 'wife', meaning she's less aggressive but ultimately in charge of everything.

Haruka and Michiru work that way in fandom. A lot of Western fandom assumes Michiru is the one in charge, but I don't know how much of that is people resenting the idea a femme can't be in charge.

JP fandom is fine with Haruka being the tachi but prefering the idea Michiru is the smarter and more sensible one, like a wife, but idk if that's common in all fandom or just how SM's creator thinks it's cute (since the main het couple works that way too)

No, a lot of that is just watching the show. Over here, that was exactly how that ship was played out.

Keep in mind that Sailor Moon is from a time where translations were often taking HUGE liberties. What you believe the canon to be like is likely not what it actually is like, especially on details like this.

Oops, didn't know that. Oh well, good thing I can still delete it.
