I am saying that, having suffered trauma, the victim is elevated to a privileged rank because of that trauma - the privilege would not exist without the trauma. 

The above quote comes from a wank report from here about a debate concerning whether or not authors should put warnings about dubcon, rape, incestial content, etc. that takes place in their fanfics to protect their readers who are survivors of trauma from having a panic atack/flashback/emotional response/etc. from the dubious content.  Skipping over the FUCK YES THEY SHOULD, because many people have written much more eloquent responses on that subject (<il user="impertinence">'s Sexual Assault, Triggering, and Warnings: An Essay Warning: Very explicit discussion of sexual assault and the nature, anatomy, cause & effect of triggers. Is itself triggery.) I would instead like to address the above quote, taken from an absolute plethora of rage inducing ones, and question exactly what the hell <lj user="aukestrel"> was thinking when they wrote it?



( Dear Fandom: DIAFCollapse )      


I am just disgusted by this whole debate and reminded once again why I left fandom in the first place.

So I'm writing fanfic.  I'm heading into my manic stage, getting back all my energy after the bout of depression. 
I've had this plot bunny in my head for a while, an Inspector Iroh fanfic.  I hope Axel doesn't mind but he did say it was open to anyone to use.  So yeah!  I wrote up a list of character profiles last night and I'm hoping it will retain my attention long enough to complete at least a few chapters.


:D
