Assumptions - Blog Posts

in recognition of World Down Syndrome Day on March 21

Does anyone remember the name of that fic where the rogues think Tony is cheating on pepper with may because he keeps disappearing to meet with peter and they overhear a phone conversation where he says I love you?

Edit: I found the fic thanks you guys

Please stop making assumptions when writing fanfictions

Hi. Yes, Hello. Nice to meet you, the name's Nixon. Normally this wouldn't be something I'd do, but damn does this one thing irritate me. Now, I'm not stupid. I am very aware of the concept of minorities and majorities. But even so, it still mildly irritates me when I have to actively ignore certain parts of a fanfiction when they:

Assume my height

Assume the length of my hair

Assume my breast size

Assume my skin color

Assume my weight

Basically, assume anything about me.

When writing fanfiction, you're not writing about yourself(unless you are, then it's a self insert fanfiction and should be stated as such). It just baffles me how many times I've had to actively tune out the parts of fanfictions where they say "he/her/they bent down to kiss you" or "you leaned up to kiss him/her/them". Like, maybe I'm 6 feet tall.

And it especially confuses me when they do this with characters like Shoyo Hinata and Yuu Nishinoya, who are very short (Shoyo being about 5'3, and Nishinoya being about 5'2). Who knows, maybe I like shorter guys. Maybe I want to be taller than them

About the minority and majority. I understand that in the majority of relationships the boy is taller than the girl. I understand that most times, the girl wants to be protected by the boy. I am aware that alot of the times, girls might have longer hair. But that's what makes fanfiction so great in my opinion. Societal norms have no effect! You can write about anything! So it frustrates me when nothing I'd like to read is available.

I LOVE Deku, but in basically every fanfiction I see of him, he's "becoming a man" or "showing a more dominant side" or "fucking you senseless because you called him cute and he wants to put you in your place" and my dominant ass is over here like: 😰😰🧍🏾‍♀️🧍🏾‍♀️🚶🏾‍♀️🚶🏾‍♀️

I just wish there was more of something me and my dom friends could enjoy.

I just wish fanfiction was more neutral, and less assumptions were made about who the reader is, what they like to do, what they look like, you know?

Sorry for the rant. I just felt like releasing some thoughts I'd had on my brain for a little bit. That's all I wanted to say. Thanks for listening :)
