I think the content guidelines, while largely reasonable, can easily lead to a narrowing of the horizons of what we're able to publish here. I'm somewhat interested in writing cautionary tales where someone is clearly morally reprehensible in a tragic situation in order to criticize society. It seems the object Lit wants you to point towards as a site must be a titilating one, but this wouldn't be. Apparently, you can't even have sexuality be adjacent to blatant emotional suffering without that somehow being "sexualized violence." A story with actual sexualized violence wouldn't make the cut, even though the narrative point is largely benevolent. Basically what I'm saying is, if I actually did the things my detractors have accused me of, it wouldn't pass muster for the guidelines.
However, have you read any cautionary tales on here of the type I describe? What were they able to get away with? I'd like not to be admonished for "trying to skirt the site rules" or what have you. Only looking for examples...
