08. Me toooo.

26. I've been to Comiket. They don't do it any better in Japan than they do it here. Get over it, most manga characters don't look like any particular race.

32. ...whut?

33. Do you actually know any people outside fandom? SRSLY, this gives me the lolz. Fandom is much more liberal than reality. The problem isn't that fandom is full of racism and misogyny, there's less here than in most places and there's at least some self-awareness. The problem is that everyone who just finished a race studies or a gender studies course expects everyone else to talk and think like they do regardless of when they went to school or whether they are privileged enough to be able to afford to go to school and take non-practical classes like that. The other problem is that some people in fandom confuse not loving every character of colour or not loving every female character with bigotry. WTF.

57. Comment! Nobody ever gets enough feedback, especially positive feedback. They're not going to look you up and go OMG SLASHER.

59. That is so dark I cannot tell what symbol that is supposed to be. It looks like the Sigillium Dei Aemeth, is it? Or is it that symbol that's under the SPN logo?

77. Yeah, me too.

TB!3/4. Rape fantasy fics are not about real rape. Many of us know that. Many of the people who read and write such things have actually been assaulted sexually, but the fantasy of meeting someone who knows exactly what you want and does it to you without any asking or negotiation or vulnerable asking for it does not go away. I understand that you are a survivor. But not every survivor reacts that way (hint: I didn't--I am freaked out by realistic traumatic rapes in fics but I still love stupid bodice-rippers) so there's no need to wish this awful horrible experience on people just because they like fics you don't.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for the bit on 33. You have no idea how happy I am to know that someone else around here has a little perspective. <3

If anything, the fact that fandom engages in so much PROCESSING about all the isms in the world is a sign that in general, fandom's ahead of the game.

Even if the processing is sometimes interminable and weird and tortured and makes me want to crawl under the bed and hide because yes, as a matter of fact, I DO ship McShep.
