this is from a whump blog, ma’am you literally beat fictional characters up.

having underage f/os doesn’t make you a pedophile, sexually assaulting and sexually thinking about REAL CHILDREN does. also no one has to constantly paint problematic ships as harmful and evil, to KNOW THEY’RE HARMFUL IN REAL LIFE.

YOU of ALL PEOPLE should know that writing about things that are bad, DOESN’T MAKE YOU A BAD PERSON.

i unfollowed. lmao.

I have a nut allergy and it determines a lot of my behaviour. If I eat something with peanuts in, I could potentially die in 5 minutes. Before I consume something, I have to read the labels, I can’t trust people’s words on things being ok, I am used to being left out of meals. It doesn’t bother me. I am responsible for my own health, I know other people enjoy nutty foods even though they smell like poison. People have to give me the opportunity to protect myself, but then the ball is in my court. I can’t go around and harass people for eating peanuts, it’s not fair. I like thinking of my emotional triggers the same way, sites like “does the dog die” works exactly the same. You aren’t sure a piece of work will be safe for you, it’s on you to not consume it . I hope this make sense I just think triggers and allergies should be treated the same way

The allergy analogy is always a great way to explain this sort of thing! Well said.

Imagine your F/O taking you on a classic Valentine’s day date. The two of you get dressed up, and they take you to a gorgeous and fancy restaurant where they made reservations. They have chocolates and roses for you, and when the two of you get home, the lights are low, and the setting is perfect for an evening alone together.

Random ask but I was just remembering something infuriating that I saw on Twitter the other day, feel free to ignore. Antis have such fucked up priorities that they’ll bring up the fact that someone is a proshipper BEFORE they speak about someone being a nazi/zoophile/“map” (pedophile) or any other fucked up thing. And I don’t mean it in a “This gets gradually worse” way, no no no! I’ve seen people calling out proshippers and then adding another tweet to their thread being like “Oh yeah they’re also a nazi/zoophile/”map” (pedophile) btw” I’m so fucking tired, I’m not a bad person for enjoying fictional topics, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT HELPS ME TO COPE WITH ACTUAL FUCKED UP SHIT I’VE BEEN THROUGH!! Antis are exhausting.

It’s because fandom, fanfiction and fictional characters are the most important thing to them. Real people are an afterthought.

I’m afraid this might be a problematic type of shipping, maybe even for some proshippers, and it’s definitely fuel for antis to use against us, so if you want to ignore this ask, that’s ok. First of all, something everybody agrees is ok is when we write/headcanon straight characters as queer. I do that myself often, main example being Steve x Bucky Barnes, IMO much better chemistry than Steve x Peggy. But what about the other way around? There’s this gay male character that I believe has incredible chemistry with a female character (I actually headcanon her as his “only exception” and he sees himself as a gay man who happened to be in a straight relationship), but we’re often told it would be homophobic to ship something like that. Yes, most homophobes would indeed do that, but I can guarantee that if I count the number of straight characters I ship with same-sex characters it would vastly outnumber the very small number of gay characters I ship with opposite-sex characters). Is there any proship statement that says something like “shipping canon straight characters with same-sex partners is just as valid as shipping canon gay characters with opposite-sex partners as long as you’re not a homophobic jerk IRL?”

Anon, I’m going to tell you right now.

Just like you said “Is there any proship statement that says something like “shipping canon straight characters with same-sex partners is just as valid as shipping canon gay characters with opposite-sex partners as long as you’re not a homophobic jerk IRL”

Fanfiction is fanfiction. It can never “taint” or change the original material.

You can ship anybody with anybody.

It’s not somehow wrong to ship a canonically gay character in a straight relationship, any more than its wrong to ship a canonically straight character in a gay relationship.

Fanfiction is your playground.

Nobody should be telling you what to do.

If they don’t like it they shouldn’t be reading it.
