Fuck's a pro shipper?
We've got a new one boys try not to scare em off /j
Okay but seriously, I'm more than happy to explain. I assume that if you're asking this question you're not aware of the proshipper vs antishipper, uh, "conflict", I guess. So, here is what both of those terms mean, to the best of my descriptive abilities:
Antishipper (often just "anti"): someone who vaguely believes that consuming problematic fiction (usually specifically problematic sexual fiction like lolicon or incest) is either a true reflection of them as a person or a corrupting force that will cause them to play out these desires in real life, onto real people. Basically, if you read age gap, you touch real kids in real life or secretly want to.
Proshipper (sometimes "profic"): someone who does not believe the above, and believes that fiction is not the same as reality because it doesn't harm anyone and therefore people should be left alone as long as you have no reason to believe that they would ever do something like that irl. Often hand in hand with things like anti censorship, kink positive, etc, though being a proshipper does not necessarily mean you have a problematic ship or kink yourself (example: me).
You're probably asking this question because you saw me day in my bio that I am a proshipper. I've tried to stay neutral in this initial description, but obviously I probably didn't manage to be completely unbiased considering that I believe myself to be right (most people do) so if you want to ask further questions after this that's perfectly fine. That being said:
So, to understand this, let's first look over the issues within both communities— every group has issues, after all.
What problems do proshippers have?:
- sometimes 4chan assholes co-opt the label "proshipper" just because they're lolicons, even though there's good evidence to suggest that they would do or even have done criminal sexual acts in real life, or that they possess actual csam (child sexual abuse material, a term being used in favor of "cp" these days as porn implies consent). Proshipping has nothing to do with the harmful idea that you should be allowed to exploit and abuse real children.
- there are still many gray areas which proshippers themselves don't agree on. For example: I've seen a bunch of arguments about if writing fanfiction of live action shows or movies changes the equation. The general consensus of proshippers is that writing fanfiction of a character played by a child actor is definitely a more delicate situation and should not be sexual as it's inextricably tied to the image of a real child, but there are others who believe differently.
- I'm genuinely struggling to come up with more of these. Um, sometimes lolicons are really shitty people, like in point 1. This isn't SUPER relevant though cause in reality the overlap between predominantly queer or female proshippers and Reddit incels who just wanna jerk off to a petite anime girl is pretty small, though I'm sure it exists somewhere .
Now, what problems do antis have? (Fair warning, this is gonna sound even more "biased" but I hope my logic is still sound from the outside :p):
- I don't have any statistics on this (haven't exactly been many research papers on fandom drama), so you're going to have to trust me when I say that antis are absolutely NOTORIOUS for extreme harassment campaigns. The first time I was exposed to the word "antishipper", it was attached to a story of a former animator committing suicide because antis had gotten them fired by "exposing" their porn alt on Twitter and they could no longer afford medication for their disability. So, hell of an intro!
- their opinions are, in pretty basic ways, not backed by science or even practical common sense. The human brain can distinguish between fiction and reality after around age four or five
and people certainly aren't trying to hand nsfw content to children that age so I think it's safe to say that the people who are reading these things won't be "confused" by them or whatever. Also, even just using your brain and talking to these people, you find out most of them project onto the YOUNGER character.
- they claim to support victims but often simply don't. I won't keep dragging threats into the spotlight because I know there are probably antis who aren't as violent, but it's honestly astonishing to me how often they jump straight to wishing death and terrible things on people, and this has included more than once telling a rape victim they hope they get assaulted again just because they're a proshipper. See, a lot of these "taboo" sexual fantasies like age gap and incest actually themselves stem from a traumatic experience, and any therapist will tell you that fiction is a much healthier way to explore intrusive thoughts and urges than more dangerous coping mechanisms like self harm or substance abuse. And when confronted with this, in my experience and many others', antis will simply ignore that fact or say that the therapist is some sort of evil enabler.
-the general cognitive dissonance of believing an incest fanfiction will make you "forget" that incest is bad vs being fine with horror movies and slashers speaks to a deeper and honestly kind of worrying anti-sex mindset. I'm not sure I'm qualified to tackle this particular topic, but I definitely agree that it's a thing; after all, I have no idea how else those two things could coexist.
Anyways, I'd like to close this off by saying not everyone is as crazy opinionated as I am, I'm just autistic and like talking lol. A lot of people who id as proshippers just have a sort of minding their own business, ship-and-let-ship mentality, and a lot of antis are unfortunately just teenagers who were told proshipper = evil pedophile groomer and thus they put "proship dni" in their bios just cause they don't know and don't really care what it means. It is undeniable that many antis are kids themselves, and that does worry me, because fandom drama (especially Twitter fandom drama) is dangerous and vitriolic and also they're putting extremely serious threats on their digital footprints at the tender age of 14! But whatever, I'm not their parents, that's just my worry. Sorry for rambling this long lol, I wouldn't blame you if you dropped out halfway through but this is basically my summary of this whole thing. Do with this knowledge what you will! Or, you know, don't! I'm not a cop!

Bakugou Katsuki (in my heart only)
He's genderfluid, he's a transman, he's transfem, he's actually cis and gnc, he's a transwoman but look the exact same as in canon, he's transmasc and wears feminine clothes, he's nonbinary
Recently in the state of Florida, Governor and presidential candidate Ron DeSantis passed a law making it illegal for teachers to call students any name but their legal first middle and last name. Not even if its a shortened version for example if your name is Alexander your teacher cannot call you Alex without risking being fired and fined. Not only does this law apply to names but to preferred pronouns and gender. The only way you as a transgender or cisgender individual can get your teachers to call you by your "nickname" Is if you get a form SIGNED BY YOUR LEGAL GAURDIAN THAT LISTS THAT "NICKNAME" AND OR PREFFERED PRONOUNS. This law is fucking evil and is going to get so many trans youth murdered or dehoused. some Trans youth with cant get those forms signed without risking harm and its not a matter of "its just a nickname so get over it" because its not that simple. Im a non-binary individual and i go by the name of Max, this is not on my birth certificate yet i have such visceral sickening reaction to hearing my deadname not to mention i dont even recognize it. Ive been so uncomfortable the past few days because of all my teachers deadnaming me and i dont blame them because there is nothing they can do about it. So many teachers are leaving their professions because of what DeSantis is making them do to kids. I know my teachers dont want to out kids to their parents, i know my teachers dont want to deadname kids. I know my teachers love me. But he is taking away my right to my NAME like i am an object. I am not an object i am a CHILD. Hes also done things such as take away classes such as AP Psychology because it teaches on sexuality and AP African American history. He also wants to make sure we dont learn about the slavery period in U.S. History and wants us to teach that Slavery helped African Americans. Its fucking disgusting Please use your votes and make sure this fucker doesnt get into office because hes a fucking murderer

Hi, 👋
Hope you are doing well.
I humbly request your support by reposting this post on your account to help save my family. As newcomers to Tumblr and GoFundMe, we are in dire need of your kindness and support. 🙏❤️My previous account was deleted, and now I am reaching out to you, asking for your help to share my new account. Our only hope is that your generosity will help my family endure this merciless war. 🙏🌹Thank you so much. This is my account: {https://gofund.me/e6a1e1e9}🌹
What happened to me is an error while withdrawing money from my gofoundme account due to the ignorance of the person who made the withdrawal. He transferred the beneficiary to himself, so the money was returned to the donors and I lost all the money that was donated and I don't know the solution. So I created a new account and you can check it
I'll reblog the post now 🙏 I wish better times for you and your family ❤️
