Hi ! I Just Read Your Intro Post And First I Want To Preface This By Saying Im Not Attacking You, Im

hi ! i just read your intro post and first i want to preface this by saying im not attacking you, im just genuinely curious and unsure

ok so, in your post it says you might write pedophillia and then that you don’t agree with pedophillia and that if ppl who are attracted to it outside of fiction should seek help (totally agree) but does that mean that you’re okay with getting off on/others getting off on fictionalised pedophilia or did i misunderstand? genuinely confused, sorry if that’s not what you meant

- permanently confused anon 😵‍💫

TW: Pedophilia mentioned under the cut

Hi!

Don't worry at all! I'm glad someone asked so I could explain it a bit more.

To answer your question, no, I'm not okay with it.

I don't get off on any of it nor other similar themes and neither should anyone else. Preying on children of any age is strictly against my moral code and, again, anyone who feels that way should get some professional help.

However, I am a person who also firmly follows canon unless it's absolutely necessary for the fanfic. I'm pretty sure there are more writers/readers who have that mindset too.

That said, I put pedophilia in 'might consider writing' because I realise some people might simply want pure canon, even if it comes to age.

I will decline any requests involving pedophilia if I deem them too triggering or realistic but I am still willing to consider because of people like me, who want to have as many accurate details as possible.

That tag will also be considered only for the Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon fandoms which I'm pretty sure are the only two which have canonical pedophilia.

I'm not sure how much you know about those but, sadly, it was normal for people to marry/be intimate before the age of 18 during that time period. That is, in my opinion, pedophilia either way.

That's why that's the only exception, which will mostly come in the form of mentions rather than actual actions anyway. Any request like that for other fandoms will be deleted immediately because it's just sick, honestly.

To put it simply, I'm just willing to write canonically accurate fics, even if they consider such horrific themes in the original work. However, I don't want anyone to get off on that type of stuff.

Honestly, If I ever write about it in the first place, I might write about pedophilia to raise awareness when it comes to child abuse, especially sexual abuse.

I hope that somehow clarified it<3
