Small rant about trigger warnings
I'm getting really tired of trigger & content warning pages that just say things like:
“including but not limited to…”
Or the vague warnings like:
“this book contains many dirty things and potential triggers”
I honestly would rather authors just name as many major triggers & content warnings as they reasonably can.
Obviously every single person has different triggers and no author could possibly list everything but I do think major content warnings should be clearly included when relevant.
Personally I'm not triggered by dark themes, I can read pretty much anything. I just think ethically/morally if authors include heavy content readers deserve straightforward information instead of vague teasing.
Content warnings are supposed to inform readers.
