#1908734 Trigger Warnings

Posted by Lumielle on 04 September 2015 - 09:39 AM

Sigh, I'm just going to try and bring an alternative viewpoint here. I don't think cultures can ever be too 'politically correct': what's wrong with taking into consideration that maybe, just maybe, some people would prefer not to discuss or think about rape/abuse/murder in a social setting? Every survivor behaves differently, so while person A might be comfortable with sharing their traumatic experience, person B will immediately walk away. It's not bad to be thoughtful, methinks.

 

And no, not everyone on Tumblr liberally applies trigger warnings.
