answer: no
1: a trigger is subjective
2: pointless for anyone reading from the blog because text comes after the image anyway
if you don’t like it unfollow and/or block from appearing — it’s that simpleGood call.
Queersecrets is great as it is, we don’t need labels and shit putting on things.
Everyone is going to be triggered by something and there’d be no end to the warnings. Perhaps all the sexual secrets should have warnings for abuse/rape victims? That’s half of the posts gone already.
Even with a trigger warning, you know people will probably still look.
Really, really? You can be reasonable. Put warnings before secrets that describe instances of harassment and abuse. Put warnings before secrets that show graphic images of self harm. It’s not that difficult to use judgement. Sure, something you might not expect might trigger someone, but still, don’t disregard the concept all together.
And no, people who know they might get triggered will not look.
