I hope this isn’t too spicy a topic for the, what, 7th post on this community? But I see that we already have /c/Zoophilia on the instance and it already has an impressive 80 subscribers. Even as a zoo myself, though, I made the decision to block it as I’m firm in my belief that animals can’t consent. What are everyone’s thoughts on the instance growing other communities about other paraphilias? I know we have a lot of lolicons/shotacons/etc. here, so a community for pedophilia/minor attraction would be really cool and I think fit right in. I’ve always wanted a community for that in a reddit-esque style. (They exist as forums, chat-rooms, and mastodon instances, though!) But if it follows in the footsteps of the zoophilia community and everyone there seems to believe kids can consent, I’d have to block it too. And then I’ll be back at zero when it comes to having a reddit-like community of MAPs! 🥲
What do you think about the prospect of more paraphilia communities? Awesome or scary? Good for the instance or bad for it? I’m also interested in hearing everyone’s opinion on creating alternate paraphilia communities exclusively for anti-contact discussions. (If one like that for zoophilia existed I would happily join!)
For the love of fuck, I would be strongly against this. Seen this done in several loli communities in the past and it has seem to break down moderation in one way or another. I like what Burggit has going here. It’s a pretty relaxed community. Having a MAP community would probably make it pretty stressful.
The only loli community I’ve seen take that route is ATF and they seem to be quite doing well for themselves after fostering their MAP community.
I…have my many reserves about ATF. MAPs is one of the reasons why I left. If I’m mistaken they got rid of it in their chat. Not that it makes me want to go back anyway.
