I Dont See Why Someone Writing Stuff For A Noncon Kink Is Bad, Like, Its A Fantasy. Sure, They Can Also
I don’t see why someone writing stuff for a noncon kink is bad, like, it’s a fantasy. Sure, they can also write out the characters acting out a scene (and some people do!) but also… both of those play into a fantasy it’s not immoral, but if someone just writes noncon, it’s immoral and they must actually be a rapist or want to be a victim or something. I don’t know if it’s just anti-kink stuff in general or what.
Its because a lot of people can't differentiate between fictional actions and real ones. Because someone has to write/create those fictional actions, many people assume its the creator acting via fiction, whereas the truth is simply that its the creator creating something fictional.
Characters "acting out" rape is acceptable to certain people because nobody is actually getting raped, and consent is being given to roleplay actions and emotions. This makes those people comfortable because they humanize fictional characters and consider them to be "protected" by real laws and stipulations. The characters are people, so their lives must reflect those of people in real life. Thus, rape is bad.
By the same simplistic explanation, someone writing a fake rape scene isn't actually writing about rape. They're writing about characters enjoying the contributing aspects of the roleplay. Control, size and strength kinks, trust, ect.
However someone who is just writing about rape, in their mind, is sourcing their enjoyment specifically from the rape itself. From those same things, but they're no longer individual, they're just rape.
Essentially they ignore the fact that they're the exact same thing and dictate that the given consent makes the difference.

I'm going to Comic Con this year and I'll be meeting Ian Somerhalder, Paul Wesley, David Harbour, Steven Ogg, Jamie Campbell-Bower and Matt Smith.
We defending rpf pedo and racist fantasy fanfics on ao3 now 🥺🥺👉👈
some things shouldnt get preserved, thats how you end up with ppl getting hurt dude. Your kink is not my kink and ill mind my business until ppl start bringing actual bigotry and irl kids into it
Contrary to popular belief, arguing for the preservation of content deemed 'other' does not mean I don't have my own personal limitations on content I agree with or content I would, privately, prefer to cease existing.
Also—Fanfiction does not actively result in people getting hurt. Never once, in history, has there been a legal case where someone has explicitly stated online fanfiction directly influenced them into raping someone or harming a child.
What we are defending is the right for a space to exist on the internet that is, to some extent, immune to bias-based purging. If you're incapable of actually addressing the broader issue of the damages that content purging and bias-based regulating and censorship causes, then forgive me, but might I suggest you take a step back and do some research and exploring before you speak on the matter.
If you can't see someone talking about how censorship can and has been abused in the past in order to force people to conform to things like corporate and religious beliefs on content rights without immediately laughing at them and going whahh you want pedos to fuck kids, you're not mature enough nor possess enough understanding of the topic to get involved.
Do you know what actually gets people hurt? What actually claims lives, millions of them, every single year?
Poverty. War. Bigotry. Religion. Capitalism. Classism. Inadequate humanitarian efforts. Inadequate support systems and social structures.
If someone is going to hurt another person, they're going to do it no matter the catalyst. If someone is that mentally unwell or in that mindset, not reading Starker smut isn't going to stop them. Something else will eventually trigger that thought and action. I have never, ever read any of the fanfiction that I have over the years and thought afterward hey, lets do that in real life.
And the people who do? They're not mentally sound, and anything has the potential to trigger them into thoughts and actions. Remove fanfiction, and suddenly its the movies triggering them. So you remove the movies. And suddenly its song lyrics. Its historical footage. Its the Bible. Its their dreams.
I encourage you to broaden your understanding of why people campaign for AO3 to retain its current policies, and why even if you don't condone certain content, it is so much safer for everyone involved for it to have a space to exist where you have to actively choose to look for it in order to find it. AO3 offers a huge database of filters that can actively prevent you from seeing something. If AO3 goes, all those writers and their fics with the things you hate are just going to flock back to sites like Wattpad where its a no man's land and you can trip over underage rape fic at any given moment.
Would you rather play russian roulette, or know exactly which guns are loaded?
Guys, if you read on AO3 please try to create an account. So many of us writers are going to be forced to lock down our fics to registered users out of necessity to help keep AI away, and it kills us because we don’t want to stop any of you from reading.
AO3 is invite only. So if you know an AO3 user, ask if they have an invitation to give you (we’re given invite codes to share with others who want to join) because that’s an easy way to get in. If you don’t know someone you can ask, this is AO3’s instructions for requesting one from them…
I know this seems like an extra step and maybe you don’t think you need it and can just read from people who haven’t locked their fics. But this isn’t just about you as the reader. If you enjoy fics and you want to keep them coming, this is how you support your favorite writers! If our stats and comments plummet, I guarantee writing is going to start going down as well. Nobody wants that! So please consider making an account and signal boosting this as well! 🙏🏻
**NOTE: AO3 indicates (as of today) there’s 48k some people in the queue for invites and they’re sending out about 5k per day. That’s not a bad wait at all!!**
My new favorite act of warfare is going on Instagram and commenting babygirl on posts involving Billy Hargrove. As we speak I have 16 pending message requests from positively incensed white girls.
hi hello if you read books or fanfiction or consume media with the express intent to find something problematic to be upset about idk how to tell you my buddy my friend my guy but the problem is u
