anon: Idk why tumblr decided to put you in my fyp when I’m very explicitly uncomfortable with this content but I just thought to add my two cents to this (English is not my first language so apologies if this is structured strangely or confusing in general ^^)

People are a lot more likely to give fictional murderers a pass because while they may have more victims, there are, based on my observation, more victims of grooming roaming around. Speaking as someone who has been groomed into a relationship like the one you described, albeit online, who DOES write dead dove, another difference is that those x readers read as more… grotesque and off-putting.

They were absolutely intended to delve into darker aspects of human attraction, even if only to a subconscious level. The artistry comes from the detail in which scenes are described, the emotions, the turmoil. It’s in the drama. It’s so easy to get swept away and forget the details when the piece invokes such strong emotions that just reach extremes. Also, isn’t there a paraphilia on liking serial killers…? Haven’t touched up on information regarding that though so corrections may be needed here ^^

By contrast, minor x adult situations like the one you described are easier to get mad at because, again, more people online seem to have personal experiences with that. Furthermore, murder is harder to get away with, and murderers turning into serial killers have tougher times because ONE murder must already be a pain to cover up, let alone 3+, whereas with child trafficking rings or cp, it’s a prevalent issue that unfortunately gets swept under the rug a lot of times. Irl victims of adult x minor (or just sex crimes in general), as far as I observe, get slut shamed/victim blamed a lot by perpetrators or their close relatives saying that they “made them do it” by being flirty or being the one to make moves.

Furthermore, a 16 year old is still undergoing puberty, where they would OBVIOUSLY go through hormones which would make them, you know, emotional. Overly emotional beings aren’t necessarily the most logical of decision makers, lmao (speaking as someone turning 16 in like 2 months). I could probably structure this better and add on. Feel free to block but these are just my personal thoughts on the topic. Cheers.
