( No Title )
I’m sorry but saying “don’t write dark or taboo fiction or at least keep it private because it might trigger someone or someone might get off to it.” is exactly like saying “don’t talk about the abuse you suffered because it might trigger someone or someone might get off to it.”
It is the exact same thing. Telling someone they aren’t allowed to talk about their own lived experience because some random stranger might be triggered, made uncomfortable, or even aroused by it is unbelievably fucking disgusting.
Whether someone is writing dark/taboo fiction to cope or not is 100% irrelevant because someone else’s trauma is not your business, and you can’t know.
You shouldn’t tell a victim to never talk about their trauma, so you shouldn’t tell people what they can and cannot write about, because at the end of the day, you don’t know and it’s not your business. Block and mute things/people you don’t want to see, and move the fuck on with your life.
