#raddreamer

Fauxconsang / Fauxsang / Fauxkin

A profiction and creative identity stance under the RadDream framework. This term is for individuals who find comfort, creative expression, or psychological connection in navigating, writing, or roleplaying non-traditional, simulated, or fictionalized taboo familial dynamics/tropes in media.

Fictional Context: This is an explicitly fiction-only/roleplay-only label. It is for those who enjoy exploring these complex dynamics within a narrative sandbox, but have zero desire for real-world application or real-world biological interactions.

Alternative Dynamics: This can also be utilized by individuals navigating complex "found family" bonds or processing psychological boundaries through creative writing.

Etymology:

Faux-: From French, meaning "fake" or "false."

-sang / -consang: Short for consanguinity, referring to blood relations.

RadDream Boundaries (DNI)

We maintain a strict, absolute line between fictional expression and real-world behavior. RadDream requires absolute ethical accountability: real-world harm, non-consensual actions, or violations of real-life safety are strictly forbidden and will result in an immediate block.

BYFI / DNI: If you cannot separate fictional text/art from real-world morality, or if you plan to engage in targeted harassment or screenshotting out of context, do not interact.

𓐇ᩧ⠀𓈒⠀ Raddreamer⠀⠀✄﹒⤸

゛ ⑅⠀A paradreamer who's main paradreamic desires revolve around radqueers. Just like any paradreamer identity raddreamer can be caused by trauma or community grooming. Raddreamers may interact with demonized/anti-radqueer content and communities or have fixations on radqueers to cope with their paradreamic desires. 𓏼 🍓💭⠀⬦⠀ꜝꜝ

Op does not recommend making a "larp" or fake account of ones paradreamic desires due to the fact it may be to influential and cause one to act on their desires.

Mind you i hold nothing against these two communities but it all boils down to a few thing.

Minor safety, mindless acceptance and self expression

Minor safety

For radqueer a big issue is the fact that nsft topics are very frequent and freely available to both minors and adults. And while its fine for the adults when its minors its not good. Young folks are vulnerable to dark topics and are fully capable of feeling attraction but should be monitored better by parents so they arent exposed to things above their mental maturity or to people who can take advantage of them. That is something not taken seriously enough in the radqueer community that we RadDreamers take very seriously.

Mindless Acceptance

Another Radqueer concern but i notice they allow things that can be detrimental in the long run or are rooted in hatred. While i understand why i personally cant support that kind of thing and i know not everyone in the community does but the fact that some do just makes me uncomfortable. For example: Transn@si. Yes it can be an identity for fictofolk but that doesn't make the term less harmful. It doesn't erase its history. And im just not comfortable being in a community who allows stuff stemmed from hatred like that.

Self Expression

Now for Radinclus. Honestly. They feel like a bunch of hypocrites to me. Most of their terms are reclaims from transids and are so strict on how you express yourself its not even fun. yes RadDream priorities good actions but we also dont blame paraphiles for their attractions nor do we think they need help if their attractions arent disordered. I may just be misinformed but it feels like they just want to be Radqueer but morally superior. for what? To do the same things? They arent making meaningful differences in comparison. There is no protective measures for minors that i can see and while they dont support mindlessly they care too much on how you express yourself. Plus it feels as if they are mostly antiship/antifreefic which that completely ignores how writing is a tool for self expression and while should not be used to mock or hurt others it is not inherently evil to consume dark media when in truth it can actually be a very healthy outlet for trauma as many therapists have confirmed including my own.

You can be a light shipper and still raddream but you cant be an antishipper because to be RadDream is to acknowledge that writing is a tool for expression and can be a vital tool for harm reduction and trauma processing.
