airi can be both despicable and pitiable at the same time.

Absolutely she can! In fact, I think OnK's willingness to humanize her and highlight that her behavior is not the result of her being innately, inexplicably Just Evil but the result of being a person wounded by a corrupt system and choosing to perpetuate it as a way of reclaiming control/power is a huuuuge part of why it's handling this topic as well as it is.

The issue is not OnK choosing to humanize Airi; the issue is that the way the narrative frames and gives weight to its explanation of her side over Hikaru's. @greatwyrmgold wrote up a post about this chapter that summarizes my thoughts on this so well that I would just be paraphrasing him if I tried to explain it myself, so I'll just quote it here:

Showing Ai confronting Airi about the latter's sex crimes, then pivoting to talking about how women are abused in the entertainment industry and more broadly...I like the two scenes in isolation, but putting them right next to each other has Unfortunate Implications. It implies that the latter is an explanation for Airi's behavior, and hence that such an explanation is more important than how Airi's abuse affected Hikaru.

I do think this was accidental and more of a result of Akasaka's habit of over-explaining some of the industry critique in times and places that aren't great for the pacing but it's nevertheless an unfortunate choice.

A-HAH! Thought so.

See that wood paneling on the wall? That’s pretty common in houses made in the US in the 50s/60s/70s. (Which, if you’re not familiar, is a LOT of middle-class houses in the US.)

I’m NOT saying it was filmed in Gerard’s and Mikey’s childhood home, as it could be almost anywhere in the US and it would be inconvenient to film on the east coast when everything else was filmed in LA. But I AM saying it might be a nostalgic touch on the part of Gerard.

He’s clearly into witchcraft now, and I remembered him mentioning during an interview about growing up in the “satanic panic” of the 80s and 90s. (If you know which one, please let me know so I can add it.) Parents thought their kids were going to turn into murderers and worship satan because of rock and metal music.

No, really. It’s an interesting but weird and rather depressing chapter of American cultural history.

Starting in the 70s, several bands, mostly metal bands, were [thought to be hiding hidden satanic messages in their songs.]

The phrase “satanic panic” usually refers to a [mass hysteria event where allegations of “ritual sexual abuse” were made] (TW for mention of child sex abuse, etc.), and aggressive law enforcement and coercive questioning of children by investigators put a lot of innocent people in prison.

There was also the case of the [West Memphis Three] (TW for child murder, gore, etc.) in 1994. They were three who were convicted of the triple-murder of three children in 1993, but there was little evidence to back up the case, and most of it fell apart under closer examination after the trial. They were mostly suspected because of their way of dressing and love of metal music.

So, in conclusion, it was a lot of panic over not much actual harm caused by “satanism,” rock and metal. And that idea of being a social outcast might have resonated with Gerard when he was younger.

The kid in the video is about the age Gerard was when he was getting into comic books and rock music. So maybe the witchcraft-nostalgia combo is coming through?

You know, this may be just me being weird, but when did minors viewing porn become something that the /minors/ bitched about? Like, I get it when it's in spaces where minors frequent and if it's adults complaining about improperly tagged shit, but when it's all tagged with everything and specifically has content warnings at the front, why are there people (minors, who know they shouldn't be reading it and doing it anyway) who go in to view the tagged porn and then throw a fit because of the stuff in it?

Like, maybe it's because I had my sexual awakening early, but I've never complained to the content creators if I saw porn when I was in a non-sexual tag, mostly I just made a grossed out noise then went past it asap. The whole purity culture doesn't make sense to me, honestly. I mean, there's actual problems out there. There are actual N*zis and p*dos on the site, if you want to go on a crusade then go fight those guys, not the authors that just want to make stories about their favorite characters getting it on (and almost all of those are at the age of consent).

Another thing I don't get is the complaints about shipping young adults. I mean, everyone's the age of consent and consenting, who gives a flying fuck? And even of they aren't consenting or of the age of consent, though I think it's icky (especially the latter), so long as you put on the content warnings, go hog wild with your content.

What I mean is, so long as it's all tagged properly, then if something grosses you out or offends you, just avoid that thing as much as you can. Don't engage it and if you find that stuff untagged and just lying out in the open, then just politely ask the creator to tag for it. Most of them won't ask questions and they'll tag it. And for any minors (anyone really, but especially the minors) reading this, take my advice: Don't Like, Don't Read was the golden rule back in the days of FF.net and it's still applicable today.

#everything needs to be cleaned up for minors #purity culture #tw Nazi metion #tw csa mention #see!#you can tag for everything #you just have to be polite about it #anti purity culture #i wanted to get this off my chest #my friend's been getting harassed about her content #and i wanted to share #my feelings on the whole thing #honestly #you purity culture people sound like someone's evangelical church pastor #not like liberals on a blogging site #and seriously #the fandom my friend's getting harassed over has teens getting forced to murder each other as the whole point of the franchise #how come shipping and smut are the things you bother people about?!?

You dont need to reply to this but I just scrolled past of your post where you metioned being a CSA survior and it just kinda made me hopeful because i am too and im still not to comfortable with the act of sex( but on paper its looks amazing) and I just makes me really happy seeing CSA surviors can reach the point where they are comfortable with their sexuality and can act on it,, anyways thanks for this new found hope!!! -🐞

It’s rough out there. All I can say is that don’t worry if you never get comfortable with having sex. Because of what happened to me (in two different circumstances with two different abusers) I was extremely averse to sex up until I turned twenty. I didn’t date. I didn’t kiss. And when I did try to date, I didn’t want to touch my partner anywhere and I didn’t want them to touch me either so things didn’t last long.

Then when I was twenty, I came back from basic training feeling very low about myself. I had been kicked out for physical health reasons but I felt like shit. I had no self-esteem. I felt entirely worthless and I hated myself for being what I viewed as a failure. I didn’t think anyone would ever want me which made it very easy for someone to take advantage of my emotional state. I was essentially pressured into my first real time having sex by someone I trusted.

After that, I promised myself I would only ever have sex if I wanted it and when I felt ready for it. So, for the time being, I read romance novels and wrote fanfiction about things I’d want to do if I found the right person. My next romantic partner didn’t have much of a libido but he was willing to try new things and he never pushed me into doing anything I didn’t want to. So slowly I grew more and more comfortable with the most vanilla of sex.

Then college happened. I discovered my sexual identity and new friends. I learned about bondage and all sorts of kinks through Ao3 (because up to that point I was only reading fanfiction.net) I discovered that sex could be fun and exciting and invigorating. It didn’t have to be scary and I didn’t have to do it at all if I didn’t feel like it. I tried all sorts of new stuff and found different kinks I liked which made sex even more fun.

Then I met the man I ended up marrying. He found me beautiful and funny and sexy as hell and I fell in love with him. He was pretty kinky too and we found ourselves of the same mind when it came to a lot of things in and outside of the bedroom. I’ve been married almost six years now and I can honestly say, I’ve never been happier.

I’ll always have bad memories of the things that happened to me. And I’ll never forgive those monsters for how they held me back from loving other people all these years. But I’ve moved on from them. I don’t let them control how I enjoy life anymore. I’ve learned to love despite the damage they inflicted and they can’t take that away from me.
