just because a ship is fictional doesnt mean it cant hurt people
when abuse survivors such as myself are exposed to untagged abusive or toxic ships clogging a main tag it can upset or trigger them
our feelings and experiences are valid and just because the thing upsetting us is “fictional” it does not make our feelings any less real
please respect abuse survivors
hey this is just a request but if you feel safe to reblog this could you maybe consider doing so? i think this is kind of important and so many times people speak over abuse survivors on these issues and say that our feelings dont matter. i think it might be good for this to be spread around a little
Also, abusers who see a fictional ship can use it to justify their own actions. especially when they’re with someone who is very impressional and doesn’t know better.
It’s almost as if one of these was a feature designed to simulate the act of petting an animal, and merely resulted in an unfortunate image when more humanoid pokemon were overlooked (easy to do since there’s near 800 of these damn things), and the other was a feature whose entire purpose was to weirdly stroke the faces and chests of humans and only humans, some of which are underage, some of which are your own damn family.
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
