“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

Honest opinion: I don't understand the hate for trigger warnings in books. Especially for heavy content like SA and self-harm. I'd never close a book because it has a content warning. But I've reached the point where I'm sick of reading s3xu@l @ssu@lt scenes. I might push through if I went in with some warning. But if you drop one on me from left field, I'm out. Not wanting to relive certain experiences strikes me as a perfectly acceptable reason for choosing some books over others. Or not reading certain genres at all. But when did a whole generation of authors get convinced they're necessary for a story to feel real? These scenes seem to slip in EVERYWHERE, dropped into narratives like bizarre afterthoughts. Who convinced us those who prefer otherwise are "weak" or "woke"? I don't buy it. This isn't about "strength" or "politics." I don't even think it's about "empathy." It's about respect. You don't have to agree with my preferences. But there's something wildly disrespectful in dropping a bomb like that in your story, then labeling critics as weak for wishing they'd had a heads-up. Whatever culture teaches that kind of arrogance (disguised as strength and "realism") isn't one I want to be a part of.
