One thing I really hate as a darkshipper is people who fucking hide behind the proship label. Proship is not a pass to be a terrible person, it is centered around FICTIONAL and FANDON content. You literally CANNOT be proship if:
-You DO harass people over fiction / shipcourse (keep in mind criticism β harassment)
-You are RADQUEER, proshippers do not condone "pro contact" shit and REAL WORLD HARM. Please stop associating with proship you are a walking contradiction.
-You are RIGHTWING, aka everything we go against
-You are a RADFEM, I've never seen someone who claims to be a radical feminist and a proshipper at the same time but radfems are very sex-negative and puritan. Go figure.
-You have EXCEPTIONS on what people can explore in fiction. Letting people ship what they want and create the fanworks that they want INCLUDES what you hate.
-You're AGAINST darkshippers that don't use it to cope.

I keep seeing "pro fiction" folks responding to fellow proshippers posts with things such as "I'm a proshipper and even I think that's gross to ship", "That game's character's designs are too realistic to ship or consider shotas", generally the common factor is "I'm okay with everything in fiction except this one thing that makes me uncomfortable"
Guy's! You are allowed to be profic and dislike certain ships, you are allowed to dislike realistic game designs! You are allowed to dislike ANYTHING that makes you uncomfortable, the problem is the shaming of other pro fiction folks.
If you are pro fiction, you are anti shaming towards ships!! in the end, it is fiction, which we all, as a community, have agreed to not harass others for
"ship wars are stupid why do you care what someone ships, just scroll if you don't like it
"omg ikr! as long as its not illegal-"
As a celebration of this being my most popular post, have a sequel to the world's worst double date.
I feel like the term "grooming" has lost its meaning because of antis who overuse it.
antis when proshippers show basic respect: theyβre clearly grooming you!!
"if you're going to write dark fiction you should explicitly state that it's not okay to do in real life so that a child doesn't see it and think it's okay"
actually i don't cater my art to children, my art is not intended for children, and it's not my responsibility to parent them. hope this helps
SA victims are allowed to be sexy. they are allowed to enjoy having sex. they aren't doomed to a life of never being confident enough to have sex again and i don't understand why people think that's the best narrative for them.
This was all sent to the same strawpage NOT MINE.
Idk if it's one person or multiple but still antis are discusting. Also this person is a csa surviver. And you guessed it antis telling the all the classic anti shit.
If this is one person they need to step outside cause damn
It's important to recognize that proshippers can be predators. An adult sending art of an age gap ship to a minor in order to groom them into a relationship is not unheard of. It is a very real grooming tactic online. Of course, enjoying darkships doesn't instantly mean someone is a predator- but implying that darkship art can't ever be used as a grooming tactic isn't helpful. Predators are in every online space, and it's important to recognize and watch out for the signs. Proshippers are not predators, but some predators are proship.
they match each other's freak to a degree that is dangerous to society
