#im perpetually annoyed by the misuse of this trope and also the misuse of dubcon as a tag

Love to open a fic tagged with my two favourite forced intimacy tropes only to find:

1) that the dubious consent part of the trope has been entirely removed in favour of having an explicit conversation about consent - and yet, the fic is still tagged dubcon.

2) a judgy a/n that makes me, a person who uses dubcon as a search term to find fic to read, feel bad for liking something.

Sex pollen and/or fuck-or-die are #problematic, sure, but that's the fucking point. Also, they're not real. Stop applying real world concerns to fictional tropes.

If you can't write it without the fun bits, then maybe it's a trope you aren't actually that into.

#things jess says #bitch bitch bitch #im perpetually annoyed by the misuse of this trope and also the misuse of dubcon as a tag #two ppl getting drunk together and having sex while drunk is not dubcon #agreeing to a safeword in a sex pollen scenario before the sex happens is not dubcon #dubious consent is touchy i get it but also fucking stop using the tag when the consent is not at all dubious #i dont usually like to complain about fic on main but this is a real bugbear of mine #and i also really really really dont like being judged before I've even gotten to the fic
