Heyyyyyy Girlies Just A Reminder That Ao3 Is By Proshitters, For Proshitters And Your Puritanical Anti

heyyyyyy girlies just a reminder that ao3 is by proshitters, for proshitters and your puritanical anti rhetoric isn’t welcome there byeeeeeee ship and let ship forever 🫶

A screenshot from AO3 that reads “Warnings must be about specific events within a work, not themes, characterization, style, or bias”

A screenshot from AO3 that reads “Another 8% of reports we receive each year are about harassment. An overwhelming majority of harassment occurs on AO3 because the harasser has encountered content that they find offensive or immoral, and they believe that the people who create or enjoy such ‘problematic’ content deserve to be bullied or harassed. While investigating these complaints, we often see users making comments about various types of works that they believe should be tagged differently or removed from the Archive.”

A screenshot from AO3 that reads “1. The most offensive works are already fully warned-for. The works that are repeatedly reported as being shocking and offensive almost always use the "Creator Chose Not to Use Archive Warnings" label or another tag or note describing the content.
Works are not required to tag for topics that do not fall under our Archive warnings system. However, the works that we repeatedly receive complaints about also often use additional tags to indicate that they contain such subject matter. This includes works that are reported for having racist content.
2. Works that are not compliant with the warnings system, and require PAC to contact a creator, are more likely to be good-faith fanworks than deliberate troll fics.
3. Many incidents of bigoted harassment involve non-Western cultures and/or multiple axes of oppression.
4. There are a substantial number of users who seek out content that they find offensive for the purposes of engaging in targeted harassment and/or targeted reporting. We have repeatedly received reports from users who indicate or outright state that they would like to mass-report all works of certain types. This occurs even for content that is more likely to be created by a member of a disadvantaged group.”

(This is from the official AO3 TOS update btw)

something that proshippers do that i wish they didn’t: defend their shipping, hobbies or interests to people that demand them to. in what world is it ok to go up to a person irl who’s wearing idk? band shirt? and demand them to explain why they like that band.

alongside this, EXPLAINING YOUR TRAUMA TO THEM? NO. you have nothing to defend! you do not need a justification!

just delete the anon, delete their messages, report and block them. ❤️

If people would understand that fictional characters are not real and can’t consent and are simply objects for us to play with, things would be so much better for everyone.

So mentioning the age of consent when we’re talking about fictional ships is just dumb.

If I had a nickel for every time someone’s profile mentioned how much they like cannibalism, serial killers, abusive relationships, etc and then immediately ‘proship DNI’ under it…

"Proshipping is going to give children the idea that dating an adult is okay!" and then they go on to belittle kids for their fictional crush being their age or a bit younger, but not batting an eye when their fictional crush is way older than them.
