      and the fact of the matter is that antis are literally just some people on the internet. "antis" don't have any kind of influence. you can literally just block them if you don't like them. you can't "block" the christian/catholic church's influence on your life

      I'm not trying to downplay the seriousness of christian/catholic misogyny or abuse, but you're acting like a group of people making unfounded pedophilia accusations while often attempting to dox or incite their targets to suicide isn't a real problem.

      i'm not saying it's not a problem but it's a problem with individual people, certainly not a problem with "antis" as a whole. and it's NOT comparable to the trauma that the catholic/christian church inflicts on so many of its members

      I've never claimed the trauma is comparable to that inflicted by the church; the claim is that the *logic underpinning the claims antis make* is frequently the same as that used in purity culture. that distinction matters!

      church logic: women are responsible if men look at them sexually. sexlessness is purity. if you have a single sexual thought before marriage you are gross and disgusting "anti" logic: romanticized rape, adult x minor, incest, etc. in fiction is bad hm i don't think i see it

      the unifying theme is: your sexuality can only be expressed in orthodox ways. if you do sexuality wrong according to our morality, it will provoke bad behaviour towards yourself or others, and when that happens it will be your fault for not listening.

      none of it is coming from christian logic that's like "grrr only pure vanilla sex between married people is ok" it's coming from people who were fucked up by the fiction you're defending. i've seen people thinking that rape is okay, that a teen dating a man in his 30s is okay,

      that abusive relationships are okay, because a lot of these ideas were (and still are) presented uncritically in media. and it ended up getting them in *real life* unhealthy relationships because they thought it was normal.

      the problem isn't with the media; the problem is with a society & education system that doesn't teach properly about romance, consent and sexuality, such that way too many kids end up getting their *only* education about those issues from media. it's not fiction's job -

      - to portray only perfect, ideal relationships or sexual dynamics for educational purposes! any media, potentially, can cause harm to the wrong audience, but that doesn't make the media bad; it means there's been a mismatch and potentially a lack elsewhere.

      believe me, I am someone who absorbed some shitty ideas about sex and romance from media as a teen, but that only happened because of the total absence of information from the places that SHOULD'VE been telling me those things.

          (the idea that fiction, especially YA, should only be moral and educational lest the children learn Bad Things from it is also, I will note, an argument of the religious right)
