It's been years. I have a question though. What draws the line when it comes to fanfiction? I'm genuinely curious to know how others feel and what're their limits.
To be more specific, I'm talking about a darker approach to fiction. Even if it includes real people because tbh I'm cooking up a story but it's extremely dark. Ofc I'm using it as a place to vent but a part of me feels wrong.

@Elephant_Reject ( TW: the topic's r pretty touchy.) Thank u for sharing your opinion :'] I see what you're saying, and I completely agree with you. I still think that it really depends on the authors intentions and how they're going about it. If I'm going to post it then I want to be both responsible and respectful about it even if I'm using it as an outlet because what I'm writing does indeed have some pretty gruesome and upsetting things... 1) I would hope that the real people don't see it (and they probably wont...) 2) Now your second question... you're very much allowed to judge but it was about abusive home lives, more specifically CSA and emotional neglect (and some physical). Maybe wattpad isn't the place for it?

That is my opinion though and not everyone is gonna agree. Just because I or someone else might not like it doesn’t mean that it’s inherently wrong or evil.

I think it depends on a lot of things.
1. Are the people going to see it?
2. What are the topics?
I feel as though that censorship is inherently wrong even if it’s off taboo or disturbing topics. As long as you properly tag things and don’t force the people it’s about to read it you should mostly be in the clear. Just be aware of your legal rights in your country about defamation.
