But I keep seeing people I like and respect behave in ways that claim to be about protecting abuse survivors yet are actively harmful to me as an abuse survivor. I have a probably vain hope that by explaining how it's hurtful we can find a better way to help <em>all</em> survivors in fandom, and generally make fandom more safe and enjoyable for everyone.<br /><br />The aspect of "anti" shipping culture I have a problem with is the tendency to classify certain fictional relationships are inherently harmful and working to prevent them from being portrayed or discussed positively under any circumstances, as well as other behaviours I will go into. I'm not talking about people who publicly dislike a certain ship but don't actively try to silence those who like it. <br /> <br />Content warning: Rape and abuse, both real and fictional. I'll try not to be more triggering than I have to be but given the topic there's only so much I can do.<br /><span class="cut-wrapper"><span style="display: none;" id="span-cuttag___1" class="cuttag"></span><b class="cut-open">(&nbsp;</b><b class="cut-text"><a href="https://sqbr.dreamwidth.org/353224.html#cutid1">Read more...</a></b><b class="cut-close">&nbsp;)</b></span><div style="display: none;" id="div-cuttag___1" aria-live="assertive"></div><br />(Posting this publicly so I can link back to it as necessary, since usually when I want to make these arguments I'm too triggered to be coherent.

And it's such a huge thing I just feel like saying…Wow. This is a <em>thing</em>. (Did I mention braindead? Yeah)<br /><br />Anyway. <a href="http://www.amptoons.com/blog/archives/2010/12/07/twenty-links-about-assange-consent-and-rape/">Have some links</a> (plausibly triggery)<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=sqbr&ditemid=296355" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments tag:dreamwidth.org,2009-04-14:56053:257774 2009-11-27T12:36:00Z 2009-11-27T12:36:00Z aggravated public 9 <span class="cut-wrapper"><span style="display: none;" id="span-cuttag___1" class="cuttag"></span><b class="cut-open">(&nbsp;</b><b class="cut-text"><a href="https://sqbr.dreamwidth.org/257774.html#cutid1">Warning: Probably ok but I'm erring on the safe side</a></b><b class="cut-close">&nbsp;)</b></span><div style="display: none;" id="div-cuttag___1" aria-live="assertive"></div><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=sqbr&ditemid=257774" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
