Listen, I'm having fun playing with the ultra patriotic voice, but after a couple years in blue-collar landscaping jobs, you really do need to phrase things like that.

"I'm pretty sure that fella ain't here legally."

"Well, that ain't your business Chip, it's his."

They hate being preached to. If you pull out words like 'gender wage gap' they'll tell you you're brainwashed by the far left media.

"He's one of them transgenders."

"He got freedoms too, Jimmy."

he's immortal. he's gay. he's a girl dad. he's an amateur photographer. he has a story to tell. he has undiagnosed ills. he has regrettable choices in men. he ruins it with remorse. he got in that coffin of his own free will. his melancholic disposition bewitches every vampire. he gets gaslit daily. he secured the penthouse in the divorce. he owns the night.

What do you think of people who enjoy creating/consuming darkfic (and related) without having been through similar experiences as depicted in the text/media itself? So, they enjoy it simply because it interests them, but obviously still are horrified by the discussed concepts irl. They just don't use it as a healing tool, per se?

I think that’s an extremely normal thing to do. The events we like to explore with our imagination often don’t have any sort of direct correlation with what we want to do or to occur IRL.

This ever-increasing demand that we justify our interaction with fanworks that include kinky or problematic-IRL themes with ‘coping’ or ‘healing’ has created a frankly dangerous pressure on queer fandomgoers. Nobody should feel compelled to disclose a history of trauma to justify their interest in dark or kinky themes, nor should people who lack such trauma feel guilty for consuming dark or kinky works.

(& frankly, I think the lives of most queer fandomgoers have been traumatic enough to explain the rather high interest in dark & kinky themes, even if none of the trauma has been ‘major’ for most of us. Capitalism is traumatic. Marginalization is traumatic. & if you feel like you need a reason to like something in fiction that would disturb you IRL, that should, imho, be reason enough.)
