Um... all right?

Not sure why the snark, though, or why the comment about "real life" at the end. You seem to be assuming that because I don't share your squicks I've never "observed stuff like that in real life," and that assumption is false.

After trauma, some people end up with serious squicks about certain kinds of dynamic or story. And that's totally fine. But some people don't. And when the people who do start sniping at the people who don't, I'm uncomfortable with that?

Why? Because it implies there's one true way to be a survivor, and if you don't handle your issues in one specific, approved manner, there's something wrong with you. And I'm not okay with that, not when the process of healing takes such a long time and is so deeply personal.

I understand why you're uncomfortable and I would never suggest you should read something that's going to reopen old wounds. Or even just something that's going to bother you deeply, even if you weren't also a survivor.

But sniping at other people for handling things differently is not on. We don't all end up with the same set of triggers, and even when we do, one person may handle that vastly different from another anyway.
