granted i’m a lesbian but the dutch man is drier than a piece of unbuttered white toast. i get the appeal of/attraction to other men on the show but the actor and the character are bland as hell imo. i don’t understand why people like him so much???? help

Bringing Brett and Brendan back but no Nick? it makes no sense and it feels kind of racist.

I think the Dutch guy's 'peephole' joke gets blown way out of proportion. the full line is: "you really didn't have to leave." "no, but taking a shower on a stranger's boat is uncomfortable enough. and you shouldn't be worried that he's watching you through some peephole."

like he's not really even making a joke? he's saying that (in his absence) rebecca should've been able to shower comfortably without worrying about being creeped upon. he literally left the boat to go get groceries to give rebecca space to herself. It's actually way more respectful than people act.

**So we're allowing what is basically anon hate targeted at specific people? Great! How about we just start linking fics we think are bad now. I mean fuck it, right, we're already lobbing accusations and judgement at individuals and specific tiny groups of fans, who gives a shit? /s. Mods, can we maybe start filtering this instead of publishing every spiteful troll and coward who sends you an anon?

We are already filtering asks and we certainly do not post every ask we get. We were unaware that any of the things we posted were targeting specific people. It is never our intention as Mods to post something would would make others feel bad. We will try to be more careful in the future about what we post or share with you all from the inbox.

hey maybe you guys should stop posting transphobic opinions? just a thought

It was never our intention to spread transphobia in any way on here, and we didn’t mean to hurt anyone in our lack of consideration. We deeply apologize and will try to monitor better in the future! Thank you for letting us know.

Okay genuine question. I get everyone hates when people write out accent differences. But in context of Jamie's accent. Is it okay to continue to write things that are actually words instead of proper grammar? Like how he uses "were" a lot instead of "was" or "arse" instead of "ass".

I really don’t get why people like to act like Rebecca is younger than she is. Pregnancy plots, lots of fanfics where she’s deaged, drawings where she looks more youthful than she is…she’s about Hannah’s age. Let her be 50. She doesn’t need to be younger, in art or writing, to be valued

Actually I think that transphobic fics should be called out, even if the writer is trans themselves. It's not any excuse that their kink is trans men being weak/inferior. If that is how you see yourself, as a trans man, I want to tell you that you are worthy of respect, you are strong, you do not deserve to be degraded, you are not inferior for being trans, and you are loved.
