Post may or may not contain sexual or non-sexual content that does or doesn't trigger people or cats

[seriousfic]

There's this person in Batman fandom who so irritates me. This person has warnings on their fics, but the thing is, they're not good warnings, they're just these weird ass-covering warnings that go "sexual content some readers may find disturbing." Literally every fic she writes has that "warning."

Okay. What does that mean? Incest? Rape? Child abuse? Again, I'm not the one to ask about how this works, but isn't it possible that something that doesn't trigger someone may trigger someone else, therefore you should be pretty specific? Maybe someone loves them some consensual incestfic, but would really be freaked out to open a story and find someone getting raped in it. Isn't the whole point of the warning system that the writer can't know what will and won't trigger the reader, therefore she lets the reader know ahead of time so they can make the decision themselves?

And the latest warning goes like this. "Sexual content which does and doesn't dovetail with the content some readers may find to be disturbing." I feel like I need to raid a Nazi submarine and steal their Enigma machine to find out what that means.
