I have a love-hate relationship with content warnings/descriptions. As someone who has past trauma myself, I know how much I appreciate when others let me know about sensitive topics so I can choose based on where I am both physically and emotionally.
But I also know how hard it is to decide what is a sensitive or triggering topic. Sometimes I forget to respect people’s food sensitivities, and sometimes I probably add content descriptions where I don’t have to, but if I do, what’s wrong with that? Content warnings improve accessibility for those with trauma or sensitivities, so why don’t i use them as widely as image descriptions for others?
Normalize using content warnings!
