All About Us [JELSA ONE SHOTS]

RANT

This is not an update but a long rant. It's your choice if you want to read it, and if you do, prepare yourself because this thing will be long.

I've been wanting to write this for a very long time, and I'm writing this while I'm in my Religious Class. Don't worry, I'm good at multi-tasking.

Not so long ago, someone commented in my other JELSA book, All The Silly Four Words. I was so shocked when I read it that it took almost half an hour for me to register what she/he/it commented. I had deleted it but I screenshot it for proof that he/she/it commented on it. Here it is:

Now, this is what I'm going to ask you: Had I ever given the impression that Jelsa is a homophobic, racist, and sexist ship through my books? Have I ever written something about them discriminating the LGBTQI community? Had I?

I had never, for once, voluntarily wrote about something that comes close to discriminating the LGBTQI in a form of a book, not to mention but my own Jelsa book. That's why I was so surprised when I read that comment. It was the first negative comment that I had to be honest and it had hurt me the most.

I didn't understand why he/she/it/animal would even write that comment in my book. Out of all people, I was the one she chose to attack and it had confused me because why me out of all people?

Don't get me wrong. I'm not wishing that other authors get the same negative comment that I received, okay? It's not like that. I was just hurt that someone implicitly told me that I was promoting a homophobic, sexist, and racist ship. Because it was my book that she commented on, she's implying that I'm promoting racism, sexism, and hate onto the LGBTQI community. I may not own Jack and Elsa but I wrote the words, their actions and the way they behave in my book. Her writing that comment made me thought that I was using Jelsa to spread all three things. I'm the author of that book! Does that mean that I'm homophobic, a racist and a sexist too because I was writing a book about Jelsa? She/he/robot insulted Jelsa, my ship, and she/animal/he insulted me too because it was my book and ship she/he/animal/it/robot posted her/his/its hate on.

Well, for your information, mister/miss/it. I'm a Filipino. I came from Philippines and we have a lot of indigenous people here. We have a lot of different cultures and tribes, still even to this date. I even have a classmate who came from an indigenous tribe. I have, never for once, discriminated her because of her tribe. I love indigenous people and their simple living, and it's good to know that there are still a lot out there despite the brewing technology that invades every inch of this world.

Now, for the homophobic and sexist ship. You don't even know how much my blood boiled because of that. She/he/it/animal/robot implied that I'm homophobic!

She/he/it/animal accused the one who has a brother that's a member of the LGBTQI community! My brother who's gay and the one I am currently living with while I'm away from my parents. The one who gives me food to eat whenever I'm low in allowance. She/he/it accused me! Out of all people, me! I love my brother to bits and I don't care that he's gay at all. I decided to live away from my parents to establish my independence, and before you say that I didn't have a choice but to live with him, well let me tell you that I have another brother and sister who lives away. I could've easily lived with them but I chose my gay brother instead. Why? Because I wanted to get closer to him despite our 6 years gap. HOW IS THAT HOMOPHOBIC?!?!

And despite that I promote feminism, I am not a sexist person. I don't insult people on the opposite and even the same sex. I don't think that men are pigs, no. Never. It's because I don't think that the male and female are flawed; we, as humans, are. It doesn't matter if we're a man or a woman, because in the end, we came from the same race. We still make mistakes and that has what made us humans. We are not flawed because of our sex. We are flawed because we are human. And it's okay because we can learn from our mistakes.

Now, can you still say that I'm a homophobic, sexist, and racist person who ships the pair who promotes all three of those things?

Let me tell you that I didn't even know that a ship could be like that! How could Jelsa be a racist ship when Jack's supposed to be best friend is Hiccup, who came from a tribe of VIKINGS? Or Elsa whose best friends (or what we assumed as her best friends) are Merida (who came from SCOTLAND), and Rapunzel (who's from GERMANY). If Jelsa is a racist ship, shouldn't they avoid them altogether because they came from different nations with different beliefs and religions? Is it because both Jack Frost and Elsa's origin came from Norway and the rest of the big 8 aside from Anna and Kristoff, came from different nations?

I wanted to scream badly because of that. And sexist? Just because Jack is not having an affair with Hiccup or Elsa is not hooking up with Rapunzel, Merida, nor Anna, means that it makes them a sexist nor homophobic ship. The hell! Haven't you read that Elsa might be the first LESBIAN disney princess? Where's the homophobic there? Where's the sexism?

Is Elsa a sexist? No, she's a feminist. Just because she doesn't have a partner in canon, means that she's a sexist. Merida doesn't have a partner and she's not sexist! Is Jack a sexist? Uhm, hello? He is friends with a BUNNY, a SANDMAN, and a HUMMINGBIRD LADY. If you say that he is a sexist and racist person, well, all evidences state otherwise.

I'm just so hurt and angry at her/his/its comment! Seriously! What kind of person posts something like that? One of these days, if she/he/its continues this kind of judgmental attitude, she/he/it could end up KILLING someone.

Don't think I'm overreacting because it's true! A lot of people had committed suicide because of the hate they got from the internet. If she/he/it posted some other comments similar to the one above on other wattpad users books, she could seriously make someone feel depressed and end up killing themselves.

What if I had been weak? What if she posted many hate comments and I read all of them, and was depressed about it? Don't tell me that I'm overreacting. I'm not. This is a serious matter. Don't feel confident just because your identity is hidden behind a username. If something bad happens, your enemy will be yourself and your conscience. Your conscience would never let you forget that YOU killed another human being. You might counter and argue that it was not your fault and you didn't mean for it to happen, but in the end, it doesn't matter. You still killed someone and their blood will forever be in your hands.

Okay, I think that's about it. My anger is waning. I feel okay now that I have written all what I wanted to say for so many days right now. At first, I didn't want to do this but I couldn't sit quietly and be a good little girl while she/he/it is dragging the Jelsa ship down to the sewers.

One thing, if you think that I have ever made a statement that sounded way too homophobic or racist or sexist to you, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend you or hurt you with that statement. Tell me what those statements are and I'll erase them as soon as I can.

Thank you for those who read this.
