Nah, it's a good thing OP raised their standards. No one should waste their time on crappy media.

I meant more that "fuck or die" "sex pollen" etc are pretty damn common and accepted in fandom. So fandom seems like it would be an unappealing place for someone bothered by that.

I think your fake concern is silly. Most people tag their work these days and neither of those particular kinds of rape fic are anywhere near as common as you're making it sound.

DA

1. Neither of these tropes are that popular. In many fandoms they're not popular at all.

2. That's what TAGS are for, and you know that.

3. Sex pollen does not sound like what OP is talking about in the first place.


You are making up an issue for OP to have, which they almost certainly don't have, presumably in a feeble attempt to make OP's opinions look invalid.

Maybe I'm just in dubby/rape-heavy fandoms. In Aot, a third of the fics are between a teenager and a guy twice his age, who's his superior officer. That's a lot of dubcon/noncon.

3. Sex pollen does not sound like what OP is talking about in the first place.

It's just an example of a type of dubcon/noncon. There are a lot of different kinds. It's not necessarily the case, but it's hardly a wild leap to presume that someone bothered by the scenario OP mentioned would be bothered by other dubcon/noncon tropes.

You are making up an issue for OP to have, which they almost certainly don't have, presumably in a feeble attempt to make OP's opinions look invalid.

I have no idea how the idea of "if you're bothered by dubcon that much, fandom is probably rough for you" would make someone's opinions look invalid. Like? those things??? aren't even??? connected??? you know???

you know??? You tell me.

It's not a wild leap to presume someone bothered by one rape trope is bothered by others. It IS a wild leap to presume that someone's fandom experience must be a waking torment because they have to scroll past fics they don't like.

Who said "a waking torment"? I said "rough". You want to talk about making wild leaps, eh...

Haha, woah, I'm the first person who responded to you in this thread, and apparently I inadvertently instigated some drama? Sorry about that, blitzwing!

Ahhh, it's alright! Some people just like to read more into what's said than is there. God bless 'em.

DA (The one who thinks you're full of shit)

Again with you presuming only one person thinks you're wrong. Trust me, that is not the case.

You insult me. As if there could only be one person feeling their emotions galvanized by my amazing opinions and breathtaking insights. As if there could only ever be one person who has had their entire worldview revolutionized by reading my penetrating analysis.

You done contradicted yourself son, lmao. You said you're the one [who thinks i'm full of shit]. Didn't you later imply your opinion was shared by many? Don't let me down. Drum up some support for yourself.

Exactly. :)

DA--all those tropes are unappealing to me. I close a lot of fics half read. Not a big deal, really.
