We periodically receive messages telling us not to reblog certain kinds of content. The content in question varies, but ultimately the reasoning is always the same: some kinds of content are simply Morally Wrong.
I would like to make our position very clear: this reasoning is never going to work on us.
Works of fiction dealing with Problematic Content are an important resource to many people, helping to confront and deal with difficult issues and emotions. We are in the business of providing resources to the F/F community, and we are not going to withhold those resources because of some arbitrary notion of purity that we could never codify in a way that satisfied everyone.
That isn’t to say there is no filter on this blog, but this restriction
is, as such things always are, purely subjective, and thus it has never been an official rule. It is based solely on the discretion of the blog admins, and we aim to keep an open mind.We are not running a blog for children too young to think critically about the media they see. We are flagged as NSFW and we assume that our followers are old enough to make their own decisions. We tag extensively, in the hope that those of our followers who are uncomfortable with certain subjects will be able to block posts using one of the many blacklisting add-ons available. But ultimately, there is always a risk of seeing something you do not like, and no action we take could mitigate that.
We support your right to choose what content you want to see. If that includes unfollowing us, then we won’t hold a grudge. But we do not accept that any person has a right to censor the content that is accessible to others, and so we will continue to post a broad range of content, Problematic or not.
This is our blog, and
we post what we want.
This is how every blog should respond to antis.
