Hm... lil note regarding boundaries here
7 years ago
General
Hello; uhm... so, this is something I've kinda wanted to mention here for a while, but haven't really been sure... how? Or how to articulate? And I still... don't know how for sure DGHJKDHJKD but I'll try.
So... I'll preface by saying, that I'm well aware this isn't really something I can prevent, but I just want to make my feelings/boundaries known. Mostly... just wanna mention that while I really appreciate getting art favorited, I won't deny that it's a bit... awkward, to have my art favorited by accounts that are explicitly fetish based, I can definitely tell that it often happens likely entirely due to my characters' body types, which like... yeah, I find a bit awkward seeing as nothing I post is fetish/kink related, nor is there any indication or categorizing that'd suggest it is?
Also, I only really mean this in regards to accounts that are clearly, like, for kinky stuff and clearly just shooting for kink art, and not just like. Someone who happens to favorite/draw both kinky stuff and non-kinky stuff on an average account... hopefully I'm making sense? Like I don't wanna come off, shamey. I guess bottom line is, it feels a little weird when it's like. Obvious that's the sole reason for favoriting. Words... are difficult
And like... again, I know this issue is pretty unavoidable, particularly on this here site, I guess this isn't really a hard and fast rule or anything, but I just wanted lay down my feelings. I'm also sorry this is a bit of an articulation mess, haha.

On an unrelated note, I recently got an iPad for Art Making and hopefully I'll be posting more? Though that could... vary, as admittedly my mental health has been very shaky recently.
I am also still looking to fill parts for Bitter Tears!

also not fun that most (if not, all) of the reference material i've found for larger bodies is posted to DA with the intention of being wank material
yeah I’ve had this happen a lot both here and dA quite a bit, +the fact that I have also been like, lowkey accused of fetishism before for.... having fat characters????? that exist................... uh
Tired of this near inescapable force SBHXJHSB
I absolutely don't blame you for being uncomfortable about that garbage, eurgh
And like... that's not even touching upon the generally sketchy subject of, well. Having fat bodies be Inherently associated with fetishism, whether that be in the form of dehumanizing fetishism/objectification, or people just inherently viewing any form of positivity or attraction toward fat people as fetishy and just, the inherent idea of how fat bodies are "other" and seen as "shocking" or "scandalous" :||||||||| it's not. fun (also, never having to have the word "thicc" thrown at my art/chars again would still be too many times)
