Maybe you've never seen it happen, but there has been more than one occasion where I read a secret, look at the comments, and realize immediately that the sea of angry responses it got were because everyone extrapolated a much more complex implication than the face value secret. Believe it or not, this happens much more with short, concise secrets - not because OP didn't tell the full story, but because many people tend to assume that everything is more complicated, questionable, and morally unsuitable than it is.
No, I'm not saying that they make up a majority, or even a significant portion, but when they do appear, they appear in hordes and are VERY vocal.
TL:DR; Bitches like to bitch. Anonymity gives them an excuse. It's not unheard of, and OP's probably been the victim, so to speak, at least once. You're not always right, anon.

(Anonymous) 2011-10-16 05:44 am (UTC)(link)But it was obvious most commenters hadn't even touched that fandom and so had misinterpreted my secret as some dumb secret about yaoi or something.
As I say, my mistake. Next time I'll make sure to spell my secrets out and make them tl;dr so no one gets confused before they make passive aggressive and bitchy remarks about a fandom they don't understand.
