Oh, lj feminists!
Right, so...I respect the desires of people to have triggering material put behind cuts. It makes sense to me, I think that's fine.
Sometimes though, I have to wonder if people really grasp the whole idea.
Like when someone in a feminist community cut for rape, but didn't mention that there was discussion of lynching behind the cut.
Or just now, when I checked a feminist community, and there was a cut for "self-injury"...but she left a description of SOMEONE ELSE'S self-injury outside the cut. (Her ex-boyfriend, it sounds like. Guess graphic descriptions of SI still aren't triggering to women if their oppressor does it. Or something like that.)
