Sick and fucking tired of white!y/n and black!y/n. When will writers accept that neither of these are ‘diversity’. A race isn’t needed in the story, it doesn’t need to be mentioned ever! Some readers fit neither of these categories and it’s soo easy to just avoid mentioning their race in stories not about their race.
This majorly applies to when writers include some sort of image of what y/n is supposed to look like. Stop that.
If you lean too far into ‘diversity’ it becomes the opposite.
