One of the lessons that my second African American Literature teacher drilled into our heads was the importance of reading things that make us uncomfortable. If we shield ourselves from everything that causes us the slightest amount of negative emotions, then we won't know how to deal with those emotions in any real-world circumstance. You can't make your bad feelings go away by avoiding them, because they'll just grow and grow, and when they do come out, it'll be much worse.

Sure, I don't have a problem with the :concerning: content an sich. (I mean I quite liked White Angels as a study of some terribly fucked up people, too.) But it bugs me how some posters seem hellbent on pretending it doesn't exist. :/

And it certainly doesn't mean that we can't point out that yeah, these parts of the story are fucked up. Reading something that makes you uncomfortable doesn't have any point if you don't think about and, if you wish, discuss the parts of it that are uncomfortable.

Plus, doing so is a deliberate act. You make the choice to read something that's uncomfortable and can brace yourself beforehand (which is kind of the point behind content warnings). Stumbling across it while reading a comedy of all things is a different sort of thing, don't you agree?

Wait isn't it your job to shut down people who read something like this and REALLY want to discuss the parts with which they feel discomfort? Like stand the fuck back, Imma talk about this shit with goddamn passion!

Oh Spencer, you definitely don't have PTSD. It's completely different when the bad stuff has ALREADY happened to you.

The more I think (or I'm reminded) of what happened, the more I begin to have panic attacks, incapacitating anxiety and suicidal thoughts. It's NOT healthy for violence survivors to be exposed to their triggers all the time.

I discovered that a few weeks ago. It's unfortunate (but completely understandable) it updates so slowly though. It's been going a couple years or so and it took me like an hour, maybe two, to catch up on it from the beginning.

Speaking of, the argument could be made that the whole toilet scene is worth Foiled rape attempt - that it was foiled by the perp suffering a sudden attack of conscience and bailing, rather than outside intervention, doesn't really change the essentials of the scenario right...?

I second this. Those kind of tags are a good way to prepare the person reading that it won't be just lighthearted flirting without really spoiling the story

Not that I disagree or anything, but tag changes need to go through the Suggest Tags page. Make sure you do that step as well, please.

No it's not really clear at all. Do you have a point or just acting a tough guy because you can?

Yes, the point is that is that it's not acceptable to act that way towards a mod here. Is that clear, or do you have some more incredulous comments?

In what way was what I said (act lol) unacceptable? Are you fucked in the head or something?
Wow you are a real fucking piece of work you know that? Do you act this way in real life? Just holy shit I actually feel bad for you in a way. Seriously though, does this kind of exchange ever work out the way you hope? I mean you here you go rolling up on someone acting like a fucking thug and this is supposed to engender some kind of positive response on my part? Fucking wow. All you had to do was show the smallest amount of respect and I would have been fine. Good luck with life tough guy.

Well you insulted mod saying they do shitty job, because whenever there is a actual conversation going about stuff in story, they shut it down, so you're going 100% ignore them and keep on going despite warnings. I don't think you really can talk about being respectful, after telling someone to piss off. Also you know, it's their forum and they're the ones deciding what is and isn't appropriate, so you're free to write what you want, but in the end it is you who will have to feel the consequences, not them. So like, yea, you're kinda on lost position here, whatever you consider it fair or not.

EDIT/ And obviously they got banned, figured it will happen.

It was suppose to make you shut up, which the ban will now do. Show you some respect when you show none already? lmao cya

Well I don't see a one-shot tag, so whether there really is more or not, my imagination is running wild.

I'm baffled that I never noticed this simple fact. It's like I've been assuming the tag was there all along when in reality it never was. Freaky.

Redemption by love is like the most seriously adorable trope in the book of tropes.

And of course, to make the trope work, you need a character who needs to be redeemed. For example, someone who is bad, rough, violent, dominant and doesn't show proper respect to girls... that's the whole Heathcliff set, you can't go wrong with classics, lol. Once the heroine makes them see the light with the power of love, voilà: all the problems are solved and all's right with the world!

I laughed at the Heathcliff reference. ^.^
I guess we girls have been fantasizing since like forever about meeting a cool bad guy and then healing their wounded heart with love...

TVTropes, naturally, has entries for that phenomenom. (Heathcliff makes an appearance in the first.)
