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!)

    We’re not “restraining ourselves” we’re just not pieces of shit who wanna rape kids. If you can’t conceive of being attracted to something in the real world that cannot consent without wanting to rape it, that says more about you than it does us :/

        Ad hominem aside, I think they have a fair point.

        It’s important for me to draw a hard line on that and not associate myself with those that want to do the real thing

        You can just block the community, and if you’d like, every user on it. I also feel like you’re abusing the word “want” here.

          Blocking is irrelevant. I don’t ever assume that I’m totally anonymous. If people find out that I’m hanging out on “the loli hentai instance”, that’s fine. No one that I care about is going to be particularly surprised.

          On the other hand, if burggit turns into “the pedo instance”, I am not okay with being seen here.
