summer_skinEven though I'm not in SPN fandom anymore I obviously still hear what's going on. I'd have to live under a rock to not hear what went on this weekend and the resulting out pouring of sharing between people all around LJ as a result.
I'm not going to weigh in one way or another on what's been said or done or who's right and wrong because other people have said it far better than I ever could. I also can't comment on anything that has been shared or post anything personal because I have been unbelievably lucky throughout my 27 years to never be in a situation where I've felt or been threatened, assaulted or powerless so I feel very inadequate in understanding completely what many of you have gone through.
I just wanted to say thank you to the people who have shared their stories and who have been arguing and fighting through all of this to not only keep the reality of the situation on focus but for educating others, including myself, who I'm willing to bet did not previously realize that things they may have gone through in their lives were wrong and 100% not their fault. You're some of the smartest, strongest people I've ever known/heard of/read about and that everyone is standing up to protect their own is amazing. You're all the reason why this fandom is the smartest one I've ever been in.

Date: 2010-05-12 04:20 am (UTC)I've never been in a situation like that either, but it hurts my soul to read about all the people who have and are brave enough to be coming out with their stories after this.
No one deserves to be treated like that. No one.
