why? jealousy is proof of a person's insecurities and not of a romantic attraction ..
I'm not saying it's proof. I'm saying it suggests it. Compare that to Tien and Chiaotzu where there's literally nothing about them that suggests it. And insecurity and romantic attraction are not mutually exclusive.

I could say the same thing about bald men, having no interest in relating to others ... despite meeting goku and the others

The romantic tension between Tenshinhan and Chaozu is so thick that one can cut it with a knife. The pain and torture they felt during the battle with Nappa is the greatest culmination of their love.

It's okay to read cartoon characters as queer. Gay is good.

The difference with Kale is Caulifla had to reassure Kale that there was no way she’d fall for someone like Cabba. That at least IMPLIES romantic jealousy.

Also, no one said you can’t read animated characters as “queer” on this forum. Stop manufacturing drama where none exists here please and thank you.

We're at five pages of back and forth "THEY'RE NOT GAY STOP MENTIONING THE GAYS OH GOD" and "LOL, they're so gay trust me I'm a professional". It's very clear to me that cishet fans feel threatened by the queer theorizing of Dragon Ball. I'm really sorry someone else's fun is a problem for you.

The dialogue of the characters. Caulifla refers to Kale as her subordinate, not her little sister. There's still a dynamic of sisterhood between the two but it's not related by blood.
It's just my interpretation, but I think Kale is just a really insecure and weak person (almost a caricature of it, really) who looks up to Caulifla as a ''strong'' type of person. I don't see any reason why they should not be regarded as sisters by blood just by the way Kale behaves. I also don't see the ''subordination'' thing, although I may me misremembering the anime (it's been a while).
No, the reason they shouldn't be regarded as sisters by blood is because they ain't sisters by blood. Remember, Caulifla has a brother, Cabba's master who told him to recruit her. He said his sister was incredibly powerful, he didn't mention having two.

Kale calling Caulifla "sis" is meant to be a gang thing. Caulifla doesn't call Kale her sister, she calls her protoge.
OK, I didn't remember this. Thank you.

Kale and Caulifla have a familial relationship, with Kale referring to he directly as "sis" multiple times throughout the story.

I don't support incest. :thumbdown:

They are not related at all. Kale calls Caulifla sis out of affection.

Never said they were related by blood, just that it's the kind of relationship they have. Kale sees Caulifla as her older sister.

Maybe I'm the weird one here, but I never call my significant other "sis" :wtf: :wtf: apparently this is normal for all these people shipping Kale with Caulifla.

Ane-san and aniki are how gangsters refer to their boss, a big brother or big sister figure. It's not incest.

It's a sad day for KalexCaulifla shippers, they're admitting they only pair the two because they're into incest :sick:

Plenty of people use the words "bro" and "sis" in my school. It's just a friendly term used in a casual way, it doesn't mean you actually consider that person to be your older sibling. I don't think there's anything that deep about Kale calling Caulifla "sis".

Kale isn't from your school though. She's a fictional character who had her horrible life saved by Caulifla who took her in, and now Kale views her as an older sister and is extremely grateful for what she's done. Kale calling Caulifla "sis" is her showing respect and also how Kale views Caulifla, as a sister.

Anything else is just your own sick fantasies of wanting to see incest in Dragon Ball :sick:
