Welcome to /c/Tumblr
All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cursed
This isn’t your personal call-out post.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited
Rule 2: No Forbidden Posts
Some things belong in the drafts forever. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
- NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

I'd argue they vast majority of characters I've encountered in fiction I have absolutely no idea what their sexuality was, because it was not relevant.
Even in real life I don't know everyone's sexuality. I have coworkers I've worked with for years and I have no idea.
I think the issue is we just assume characters are straight until it's explicitly said otherwise
