What is proship/comship?
Proship generally means
Why I consider myself "ship neutral"
Why I'm no longer an antishipper
The antishipper community is toxic and abusive. There, I said it. I've seen so many cases of antis telling LITERAL CHILDREN horrible things like "kys" or "I hope you get r4ped." Keep in mind most proshippers are minors. Sending death threats to minors is literally illegal, and yet these people claim that a bunch of coloured pixels is SOOO bad? A lot of antis also claim that "all proshippers are abusive," which is untrue. There is literally no evidence supporting that. Just because you saw a predator claiming to be proship just to get away with a crime doesn't mean that all proshippers are pedophiles or zoophiles, or some other horrible thing like that. A lot of proshippers are actually csa survivors, from what I've been told.
If antis claim they can't use fiction as a coping mechanism, then by their logic, art is not valid and the definition is false. Art is meant to evoke emotion, and some emotions can heal scars. But no, their emotions "aren't real." Don't you see what's wrong with that scenario? BTW saying that proshipping is not a valid coping mechanism is ableist, and it makes it seem like you don't believe PTSD is a thing. A required symptom of PTSD is literally "thoughts of the event coming back in negative ways." This definition includes things like nightmares, intrusive thoughts, etc. Some people, especially children, "replay" their trauma through things like toys, drawings, stories, etc. If someone "replayed" their trauma through art as a csa survivor, would they be considered a horrible abusive monster? Would someone with PTSD automatically be considered a predator?
