And I Enjoy Yalls Writings - Tumblr Posts

These,,, these are not real people. They’re fictional. I know that’s not the problem here but still. Arguing over a made up person saying ‘they would never do that’ or ‘it goes against what the author put into the story’ is childish. I don’t just see this in the baki and Kengan fandoms, I see it with literally everything that I interact with. And they are all just people’s thoughts.
I’m gonna try to stay as neutral as possible about this, only because I can see both sides. As someone who takes to writing as a coping mechanism and a way to anonymously get my thoughts out and share them with people (hence the ask button) there are certain things that I don’t want to see. I follow all the baki and Kengan tags (it’s a problem really :)) but I know what I do and don’t want to read or see. If I see a blog that posts to the main tag with things that I don’t favor, I hope that they have a ‘click to expand’ thingy, maybe a warning in advance, and just keep scrolling.
If scrolling past is not your thing, block them. I get it. People make other people uncomfy. Its how the world works. It’s almost like you’ll never see them in real life and have a conversation with them. And even if you did, the chance that they bring up their kinks and what they’re into is slim to none. There is no reason to bash people for how they feel. It’s their life, don’t try to control it. Just control yours.
Put warnings. The use of a trigger warning I think is overused but if it keeps people who actually have visceral reactions to the things being written, put it. In the tags, at the beginning of the writing, in your pinned post on your blog, everywhere you can to prevent people from seeing things they would rather not read. Expand on what you write without making others uncomfortable without too much detail so people know what they’re getting into.
Why the judgment? From anyone? Not even going into the writing part of it. It isn’t anyone’s right to degrade and judge someone for how they think. There is no reason to get onto someone for what they write, how they act, what they draw. Be as respectful as possible. Block them instead of purposely keeping them unblocked to keep the ball rolling. There’s no point. We’re all adults. Why aren’t we acting like it.
