kinda surprised that bees weren't more of a thing

look inside

Also! Stress tolerance is such an important skill that having a learning disability in that area is a major symptom of a whole lot of other disabilities/mental illnesses! Struggling with it is a huge part of life! It sucks!

Am I saying everyone with misophonia needs to listen to chewing noises all day? No. But you need to find ways to tolerate it enough that you don't treat others like shit if they make a mouth noise near you.

No, you don't have to read the fic with your trigger tags. But you do need to be able to handle scrolling past the tags without being upset.

It is hard! But not having it also makes you so so so easy to manipulate. That grandma is racist AF because her mom raised her to be uncomfortable around black people and she never fought that discomfort. Trans people make so many cis people uncomfortable and that discomfort turns into bigotry real fast.

Discomfort is not equivalent to harm.

I swear, so many people will act like they understand this concept, but excuse their own harmful behavior with "what they do is harming people, they deserve harassment!!!" Because it made them uncomfortable.

Your triggers are yours to manage, no one else's. The people who do that love to tell other people to get therapy, but it only makes it clear that they themselves are not in therapy because (aside from viewing therapy as a punishment rather than help) they believe a therapist would support their decision to use their discomfort to cause harm. If you speak to a therapist, they are not going to tell you to attack anyone who makes you uncomfortable and/or triggers you unintentionally. They are going to help teach you coping mechanisms so if you do get triggered by something, you're able to deescalate the situation and control your reaction instead of trying to control others.

ok. keep it to yourself. it's the polite thing to do. if i'm not enjoying food someone made, that i get to eat for free, i'm not gonna shit all over their cooking and personal tastes

Pain is morally nuetral, while a lot of pain is caused because sometimes "wrong" has happened, there exists the opposite, where the pain is desired. Kink is one of them, yes, but so are things like muscle aches from intense work outs, emptional pain from consuming intense media, or even having a hard but important conversation with a partner.

It is counterintuitive to the goal of sexual liberation to inharently hate all cishet kinksters. You do not get to tell a woman "hey actually, you're not allowed to enjoy kink, sorry it's cause you're in a straight relationship, it's just too problematic" That is not actually protecting her or giving her freedom of choice, that is simply putting a different set of restrictive standards of ehat women are and arent allowed to do or enjoy onto her.
