here's a thing that pisses me off.
I like horrible stuff in my games. I find it engaging to have to deal with and overcome unpleasant shit.
If I wanna play Vampire as a tzimisce who was, basically, long-term sexually abused by her sire, I'm not hurting anybody.

And it really fucking grates to hear people going 'oh, you can never include that stuff in games' or 'I don't understand why anybody would want to roleplay that', and it's like... it's not your fucking business.

Like I'm sat here being the abuse survivor that all this crap is apparently to protect, and you know what? I've got safety mechanisms that work, I feel comfortable exploring this shit, and it's GOOD. It's cathartic and exciting and makes me really hate the baddies.

So people need to wind their fucking necks in and accept that people are gonna like what they like, and that's OK.

Like, fuck, maybe I'm doing this shit to help process trauma, who knows. If I am, that's EXTRA reason to drop the holier-than-though act.

Fuck it. I like it when sex partners bite me and make me bleed, I like when larps make me cry OOC, I like when my TTRPGs have rape and torture and emotional abuse.

I'm an adult fucking woman, and I know how to do this stuff in a way that's safe. Let me enjoy this shit in peace.

(addendum: doing any of that shit without getting consent ahead of time is fucking skeezy and I want nothing to do with people who disagree.
But, consenting adults behind closed doors, etc...)

But yeah. I get fucking sick and tired of people acting like I'm some sort of sicko because of the - totally harmless - shit I enjoy.
