Real world abuse enforces real world patriarchal ideals that much is true. However, fiction is entirely capable of tackling these abuses and criticizing the systems from which a narrative is born. Reality affects our fiction.

“You’re sexualizing regression.” Sorry I’ll try not to be abused as a child next time. I don’t wanna feel this way either y’know.

on another similar note i was on a transid positivity post and every single person leaving hate under it self-identified as a terf. another unsurprising thing that shocks nobody.

"x amount of likes and I'll name drop a groomer 😘"

or

"oomfie follows a groomer"

"who??"

"dms..."

Dear Antis: Please DO NOT report lolicons and shotacons to the FBI. It is WASTING RESOURCES.

REAL pedos are EVIL because it HURTS REAL PEOPLE

Loli/Shota/Kodocons are NOT EVIL because there is NO VICTIM. IT HURTS NOBODY.

You are not saving anybody by reporting these types of things to authorities, you are wasting their time and resources because YOU couldn't handle the drawing that some 15 year old posted on TikTok.

Grooming is a specific manipulation tactic which is usually carried out by an adult against a minor, but grooming can happen to anyone at any age, even to adults! 

grooming is not a proshipper/kinkster or anyone else existing on tumblr or social media without bothering anyone, grooming is when an adult befriends a minor very quickly and starts isolating them from their friends and family 

grooming is not someone making their kink fantasies public (with proper tagging), grooming is when an adult talks to a minor about intimate details of their life, their sexual relationships, sends this minor adult content to “warn” them about it, slowly desensitises them to it or if they call this minor “mature for their age” 

Even if we lived in a world where taboos in fiction and people glorifying them didn’t exist, it wouldn’t stop grooming from happening. Abusers will and can use anything to get close to their victim, movies, books, candy, tv shows - or even toys

grooming is always a pattern of specific actions and behavior and it’s important to realize this, to call these things out, stop focusing on the tool someone used because they’re not important, tools are replaceable even 

also, it is never the fault of the victim that they were groomed. It is always the fault of the person who takes or took advantage of them. 

Soft Domestic Fluff

Your F/O melts when they wake up to you curled into their side. They trace lazy patterns on your skin, press a soft kiss to your forehead, and whisper, “I love you.” It’s quiet, but in this moment, nothing else in the world matters.
