Honestly, it would likely depend on the actual context and content of the piece itself. Without at least a sample, it's difficult to accurately judge. I myself have some opinions about the fandom and certain kinks that probably would get people pissed at me as well. I think we all do to at least some capacity. I think it's primarily how it's phrased that tends to rub people the wrong way, since many tend to take direct challenges to topics they feel strongly about as personal attacks (unfortunately).

For example, one thing I particularly dislike is vore. It disturbs me to no end. If I were to really let loose on how I feel about the topic it would probably irritate people and would be difficult to word in a way that would be considered easy to take for those who love it. In the end, it comes down to "what can you handle in terms of response", because choosing to voice your opinion can lead to some aggressive responses. Not saying you shouldn't, but just be prepared if you do.

I'm both well aware of, and expecting a negative response if/when I post this. It strikes at an issue much deeper than just "kinks that I don't like" or something like that. And I don't exactly sugar-coat my opinion on it either.

Funnily enough, your comment "many tend to take direct challenges to topics they feel strongly about as personal attacks (unfortunately)" is not too far off from what I was going to post about. I won't go into the details, but what I was going to post had to do with the general "culture" of the fandom and how it seems to, to put it gently, promote narcissistic behavior. In my opinion, furries are increasingly becoming, and are being encouraged to become, just plain mean, selfish people. It's a very, very deep-rooted issue I have that's been bugging me for a long time. That's all I'll say about it for now.

To be honest, I have seen a lot of selfish and especially entitled people when it comes to the fandom. Not to say everyone is like that, but I have seen a fair share of them have everything from "nice guy" attitudes to even gaslighting others into getting what they want.

While not everyone will agree, I do definitely see what you mean. It's a far cry from the welcoming culture I used to know when I first joined the fandom.

Yes, exactly! And if you try to call it out, those people will turn it around and say you're the problem! And the entire fandom always agrees with them, because they'd all like to bury their heads in the sand and pretend that it's not an issue and we're still just as friendly and wholesome as ever UwU.

To be honest, that was my main concern when I decided not to post my piece. I don't mind people criticizing me, I don't mind people disagreeing with me. But I don't want people demonizing and harassing me. That's exactly the sort of behavior I was criticizing when I wrote it... and I just know that if I post it, sooner or later someone will do just that, because that's just what the fandom does to people, these days. When did we become so petty and cruel?

...I've practically posted the entire thing, at this point, so I guess I might as well put it up. I'd do it later; wait and see if anyone else responds.

I'll definitely give it a read once I wake up. This sort of thing has happened to me so often that it's honestly nice to see that someone else finally wants to talk about it.

Too many would rather indulge is escapism and denial about the issue. It's even worse on sites like u18chan, e6, and especially 4chan which I dare not tread personally but have seen plenty a screenshot from friends.

Well I personally think you shouldn't be hesitant on expressing your opinions or thoughts on something as long as they're well you know not forced on others. That being said this is a site for posting stuff for people to see but I'd definitely play it by ear... at the end of the day you can tell others.

Sorry I'm late
