It is morally correct to be horny on main.

If we really want to fight against this puritanical culture that seems to be hell-bent on running sex workers off the internet and banning pornography wherever they can find it, you have a moral duty to post hole on main. Doesn't have to be your own hole but you got to post it.

I think tumblr once again needs the "fictional characters are not real and have no autonomy, everything they do/wear/say/etc is chosen by their writers and artists so brushing off commentary or criticism by claiming that it's just the character's choice is disingenuous at best" discussion again.

Sooo weird how when people interpret me as a gay trans man they think I’m a perverted women with a fetish trying to rape gay men but if I’m interpreted as a straight trans man they think I’m a poor butch lesbian who was indoctrinated by the trans agenda….

Like what if I’m just some guy. Why do I have to be a pervert or victim. Why can’t I just be a person.

I've noticed far too many people don't know what "Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings" means and confuse it with "No Archive Warnings Apply."

No Archive Warnings Apply:

Does not contain nuts.

Safe. Nothing here will harm reader.

Creator Chose not to Use Archive Warnings:

May contain nuts. (Assume it contains every nut under the sun. It is a potential can of mixed nuts from which a spring-loaded snake will pop out.)

Not inherently safe. Proceed with caution and an understanding the work may contain every other warning available. All of them. Or none of them.

Creator is under no obligation to disclose any of this ahead of time.

The Warning is the warning.

Any fallout is the fault of the reader's misunderstanding or disregard of the Warning. The creator is not at fault.

If a reader chooses to filter out one (or more) warning(s) for their mental health, they need to understand they should also filter out "Creator Chose not to Use Archive Warnings" because it may contain the one(s) of their aversion.

It's concerning how many people will agree to a website's TOS without actually reading it. (No really, this is concerning.) Because the explanation of warnings is right there in the TOS. They define "Creator Chose not to Use Archive Warnings." All users have to agree to the TOS before creating an account.

And who doesn't want to know how a website works when using it?

Also important: General tags (not warnings) are a courtesy, not a requirement. The creator will include them if they choose. Many people do not feel that obligation. They may not add a tag, even if asked, and they do not have to. (Yes, this even includes a work with incest. It could be completely untagged and break no rule.)

That is AO3's Terms of Service. The reader may consider the creator rude for not tagging, but everyone should look out for themselves and understand their own expectation of risks. You don't have to agree with a creator's choice. You do need to understand it's a choice they might have made. It is a risk you take that they might have made it.

Good morning! I’m salty.

I think we, as a general community, need to start taking this little moment more seriously.

This, right here? This is asking for consent. It’s a legal necessity, yes, but it is also you, the reader, actively consenting to see adult content; and in doing so, saying that you are of an age to see it, and that you’re emotionally capable of handling it.

You find the content you find behind this warning disgusting, horrifying, upsetting, triggering? You consented. You said you could handle it, and you were able to back out at any time. You take responsibility for yourself when you click through this, and so long as the creator used warnings and tags correctly, you bear full responsibility for its impact on you.

“Children are going to lie about their age” is probably true, but that’s the problem of them and the people who are responsible for them, not the people that they lie to.

If you’re not prepared to see adult content, created by and for adults, don’t fucking click through this. And if you do, for all that’s holy, don’t blame anyone else for it.

I think one of the reasons that polyamory was a catalyst for my disaffection with large segments of the left and my suspicion (beyond just the demographic reality of people on average becoming more conservative as they get older) that most progressives are just republicans a generation ahead of their time, was because of the way it illustrated the mechanism at work in a lot of people's thinking about these issues. Not just their specific thoughts on polyamory and their treatment of poly people, but the way that in a more thoroughgoing sense they indicate a brazen embrace of prejudice.

There isn't usually a whole lot of deep reflection leading people in our circles to negative conclusions about polyamory and those who practice it. Most people in the LGBT community will admit if pressed that there's nothing intrinsically unethical about non-monogamy. Poly people just happen to be a group that mainstream society doesn't like in ways that trickle down even to people who think they're all "radical queer" and shit, because as it turns out nearly all of us are influenced by mainstream culture to some extent. Just a group of easy targets who are subject to plenty of negative stereotypes but aren't on the official list of protected categories. When people make jokes about how all poly people are ugly, or insinuate that we're all sexual predators, they're demonstrating that they would probably have done the same thing to similarly precarious groups they weren't a member of in the past, like trans and ace people last generation, or bisexuals the generation before that, and that they'll probably do the same thing with similarly precarious groups in the future. And they form rationalizations about this, about how poly people "aren't really oppressed," how it's just a bunch of cishet people trying to break into the cool kids' clubhouse, but by and large these are ex post facto justifications for prejudices they already held.

I'm not sure we can get away from that in a purely identitarian model of social justice, as opposed to just continuing to bolt on categories we recognize that we shouldn't be prejudiced against, always a bit too late. I'm not saying we should go back entirely to '90s big tent salad bowl cultural liberalism, it had its share of faults too, but if we could bring back the expectation that we judge these sorts of prejudices guilty until proven innocent I think it would go a long way to curing many of our present social and political dysfunctions.

Homestuck antis are a true testament to how little people actually read Homestuck and comprehended it. You're an anti into HOMESTUCK? The very same Homestuck where the funny grey aliens are forced to fuck their brothers and sisters by the age of 13 and if they dont theyre killed by their government? The same Homestuck where the 30 year old creators self insert is trying to fuck a 13 year old the whole time? The same Homestuck where Rose admits to liking Dave (her BIOLOGICAL BROTHER) less than 100 pages in? Get a fucking grip.

It kind of sucks that being pro-fiction has been reduced to just "person who beats it to lolicon and ships incest" because, well, besides the fact that's a weird uncomfortable thing to assume about people, being pro-fiction is about so much more than supporting the freedom to write or read that kind of thing in fiction. 

It's about supporting BDSM in fiction, "cringe" queer art/fic, "cringe" stories, badly written fanfic, rare pairs, ships that are unpopular, fanfiction that ignores canon, people being able to post their stories online without being bullied, being able to be in fandom without being bullied over everything I listed above and more, not to mention basic pro-fiction beliefs (like knowing you can read something without it corrupting you) and being against anti-fiction outside of fandom too (fuck book bans). 

I don't know; a lot of pro-fiction people just want fandom to be a nice place and for people to realise that you can read something bad in fiction critically, and suggesting otherwise feels kind of ignorant.

a weird amount of Fandom People but internet leftists in general seem to be completely unable to separate discomfort from harm

Fandom Problem #4832:

The fact that people will accuse creators of misogyny for creating fan-service for their audience, especially for mature/cheesecake-themed works. “Why is that creator sexualizing women?!” because you’re in a male-aimed/hentai fandom Brenda. The woman’s in a bikini for the “people who like bikinis” gang, not to secretly tell you to go back to the kitchen.

The concepts of NSFW is being cleared of the Internet under the false pretense of children’s safety when it’s really about the people in power sanitising for advertisers and pushing evangelical narratives AND that not enough is done to keep legitimately harmful content off of spaces that minors have access to are ideas that can coexist

Refrainbow didn’t consent to the animated ads cause what he was sent to was downright horrible but he was basically forced by webtoon to agree and then was left alone to deal with the harassment that followed after

"oh itd be illegal in real life though!!" yeah. a lot of shows have moments like that too. and theyre not always shown to be explicitly negative, are seen as funny, or are even seen as attractive. but people are yknow. expected to know that certain things aren't okay irl. because they expect them to be adults with critical thinking skills.
