#i feel really confused by the wide gulf some of y’all are drawing

Hot take: it’s okay to fantasize about celebrities, actually

#🤷‍♀️ #i feel really confused by the wide gulf some of y’all are drawing #between on one hand thinking that thirsting after every body part of a character is okay #that compiling bulge pics and lusting over them is okay #and on the other hand thinking it’s a mortal sin worthy of ostracization #if you write down a fantasy you had about dating the actor himself #like??? #it’s not that i don’t see where the differences lie between character fanfic and rpf #but i really think some of y’all are fooling yourselves by pretending like you’re not also ‘objectifying’ the actor #it’s still ultimately pedro’s body in your frankie morales body worship fics #and his dick inside javi’s jeans #sorry! #and i really am not trying to be mean with this post #i love this fandom and want us to be a happy thriving community #it’s just— #some of the things i’ve seen this week have had such a hyper-judgmental holier than thou tone to them #as if these personal boundaries and opinions are actually an Objective Moral Truth #and it’s really rubbed me the wrong way #and also left me feeling genuinely sincerely curious about how and where you choose to draw your lines #to decide that what you like is fine but what other people like is unacceptably abhorrent #because from my perspective some of these things are not so far apart #and maybe everything is not so black and white
