Well, yes and no. While I police my own flist assiduously, the normalization of "you may not restrict my desire" has made it impossible for me to participate in one of my current fandoms. I can't subscribe to any of the existing fic comms, because none of them have content restrictions, and all of them are populated with fiction I find triggery. My fandom before that, I was subbed only to a gen comm for the same reason, and even there we once had a clueless posting of the same triggery material, by someone who doesn't understand the meaning of the phrase "no pairing of any kind."
Do I want to be subbed only to gen comms? No; I like a lot of different kinds of fiction, including several kids of sex. But no comm that allows sex disallows the material I find triggery, and so I end up subbed to almost no comms where sex is allowed at all.
How did we get here, in fandom, where permissiveness can be so restrictive? It is not I who changed.
