It's Your Blog, You Should Ramble. And If That Information About Dealing With Anxiety Is Also On The

It's your blog, you should ramble. And if that information about dealing with anxiety is also on the internet anyways people will find a way to access it so don't worry about that. I think.

I think you've already seen some terms by now: comshipper means shipping things that would be complicated in real life and darkshipper means shipping things that would be deplorable in real life. In that case I don't actually mind if people put "darkshippers DNI" or whatever in their bio, they're allowed to not like dark subjects but it gets icky when they're attacking an *anti harassment* identity. That being said, most comshippers and darkshippers are proshippers, yes. And most of us accept them in the community. Which makes others think we allow these acts in real life apparently. As for the ship you mentioned, I don't know the characters so I can't give accurate input but it's no surprise to me that antis attack even vanilla (?) ships.

Funny how you mentioned pro/neutral/antis. If you make a poll you should probably include stuff like "neutral but proship leaning" or whatever too. So funfact, I've seen neutrals get criticized by both sides here. Antis criticize them for not being *heavily* against proshippers as much as they are. And proshippers criticize them by saying "you either harass people or you don't, what's there to be neutral about". I guess there's nuance in some related topics ("what counts as dark content, what counts as romanticizing etc" not "should harassment be okay?" type). Not to mention people who don't identify as proship because they don't want to be attacked and all that.

A lot of people especially proshippers talk about how fandom used to be so peaceful back then but I can't find proof of those times right now. /neu

What I remember/ know (reciting from memory, will take time to find sources, might have incorrect bits) is that a portion of antishipping has its roots in misogyny and that's got to do with how the proship label came to be as well. Also the antis I see novadays acting like a cult or how some political bigots treat minorities. The gay comparison from the previous reblog reminded me of that. Bigots years ago thought gay and "mentally ill" or "predator" were the same thing and tried to define queer terms to their own accord. It sounds a lot like what antis are doing to us now. Of course I acknowledge that the former incident was much more serious than the latter.

I hope you as the admin will be okay mentally while running this blog! It can be hard.

And also antis posting on here should probably know what's the actual meaning of proship before doing so. "Proship in my opinion means [something completely different]" there's no "your opinion", it's a word that already exists with an already existing meaning.

(Unless what one says is like "proship in my opinion means ship and let ship or anti harassment" because those *are* included in the definition. But you know they're not acknowledging what it is because being against "no harassment" makes them look like the bad guy, which they pretty much are sometimes.)

Thank you so much for your concern, but please don’t be afraid. I also run a side blog regarding mental health (apologies, I won’t link it as it has more information about myself there and I’d like to keep it separate from my psychology/sociology study.)

I have noticed that antiship people tend to have a “different definition” of proship based on who. Such as the en.stars fan base which considers a 16 and 18 year old to be EXTREMELY problematic and pedophilia. From a someone with a grass healthy relationship, those individuals seem rather grass deficient. The psychology and maturity is hardly different between those ages.

Anyway, I digress, unfortunately in order to understand someone when they speak, we must come to terms with the ways in which other people are defining words. For more information about such a topic, I highly recommend the book “How to Read a Book” by Charles Van Doren and Mortimer J. Adler. (PDF) So while there is a word that exists with a definition, it is like using the words gay, retard, and molest. The words have taken different meanings. Likely, the words people associated with them are: homosexual, a slur describing one of special needs, and improper sexual advances. Originally these words meant happy, to slow, and to disturb. Not only do words change but their perception can as well, such as me calling people homosexual is often met with dislike. Like it or not, this is at the very least something important to consider when making these discussions. (Sorry for the large block on this, I find the subject fascinating!)

Unfortunately, even with my brief interactions, I’ve been finding myself in a rather, perplexing position. I’ve been accused of harassing individuals in a tag and being a drama blog (though apparently being mistaken as not being op makes it better?) while mistakenly being accused of being proship (I state myself rather clearly in my bio.) I’ve sifted through dozens of blogs that were academically impossible to use in a healthy discussion since the tags or blog included threats, suicide baiting, amongst other deplorable words. This topic is interesting, but I’m watching a lot of unhealthy behaviours. I even blocked a fandom callout blog recently for existing in the sense of wanting to harass others. So, it’s interesting, but so hard to find people who are genuinely interested in having a civil conversation from that perspective.

AAA THANK YOU SO MUCH ILYSM<33

OF COURSE I LIKE IT HOW CAN I NOT <33

So, let me get this right:

Being attracted to fictional serial murderers is okay,

Being attracted to fictional terrorists is okay,

Being attracted to fictional monsters is okay,

But being attracted to fictional children is wrong?

Hm, noted.

Yes >:) (The source makes it so much better)

Obamitsu in barbie au! This is based on that beach scene from the movie, but anyways, Mitsuri is literally the Barbie Girl of Kny so I have to draw her in this au.

Reposting this bc the fandom is acting like a bunch of whiny children over the ytmk crumbs in the new chapter.
