DearWattpad refugees,
1--Archive of Our Own does not have an algorithm.
2--You cannot mass report a fic on AO3.
3--No one receives an email notifying them that a fic they reported was taken down.
4--The person who wrote Ao3's T&C is a leading expert in the First Amendment and a Harvard Law professor.
If you cannot handle the content you are finding on Ao3 stop making up lies and go back to Wattpad before Kinktober.
Y'all are exhausting.
In regards to the nth time that a bunch of new people discover Ao3
"but isn't it disturbing/problematic that works under this tag exist?"
That tag exists 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 the past 2 decades we've had a recurrent discourse over that.
And now a tagging system exists

I once sat with a girl who told me she had been raped.
She had gone to spend the night at her boyfriend’s house, & he spiked her drink.
She woke up to signs of sexual assault — confused, scared, & hurt.
I told her we could go together to make a police report.
I sat beside her as the officer said things like:
‘You shouldn’t have gone over there.’
‘You shouldn’t have stayed the night.’
‘You shouldn’t have accepted a drink.’
‘You shouldn’t have been drinking alcohol at all.’
Every word he said was about what she did wrong — not about what was done to her.
I corrected him. I told him that none of the choices she made were her fault.
None of this was her fault.
He was the one who drugged and assaulted her. It’s not ok to say it’s her fault. He was shocked and mumbled well “no”
Instead of taking her report with professionalism, without judgment, without bias — he made her feel blamed.
She left without filing charges.
This is how rape culture persists
and in case you didn’t know where i stand, it’s:
- fuck ice
- free palestine
- black lives matter
- trans rights are human rights
if you don’t agree, get the fuck off my page
Men don't want abortion.
Men don't want condoms.
Men don't want vasectomies.
Men don't want child support.
What they want is sex without responsibility... and women to bear every consequence.
Say it louder. https://t.co/z6kdbX6BUk
When I went to a male gynecologist to discuss getting a hysterectomy because of my fibroids, one of the first things he asked was, “Aren’t you afraid you’ll regret not having children?” I asked him, “Do you regret not becoming a banker?” He looked confused and said, “I never wanted to be a banker. And i said “Exactly. I’ve never wanted children”. Gtfo
A Texas woman got an abortion. So Texas police used 83,000 Flock cameras to track her down. 83 THOUSAND!! They aren't using these cameras to track down rapists, pedophiles, or traffickers. They're not using them to find your missing children. They're using them to throw women in jail for making choices about their own bodies, with OUR tax dollars.
Phil telling Katie we all wanted to know how she reacted to him using the Princess For Christmas photo & her immediately reading out their texts so we know Exactly how she felt 😂😂
Phil: 'Will you hate me if I use this photo'
Katie: 'Yes. But I fear it is perfect. Sigh. Fine'
