ʚ Question Of The Day 。 ⁰⁸
𝜗♡𝜚 ┈  “Do you tend to gatekeep media you like, or do you want to share it with the world?”

it depends cause i dont usually gatekeep unless its something i've liked for a very long time or a character/duo/group thats constantly mischaracterized :( if its a lesser known media i would want to share it but im sometimes worried that if it gets popular people will completely miss the point of the media

it depends! some media i wish to share, but others i wish no one else knew but me . . . i always wish to share media i like with friends & those i am fond of though ^w^

im not really gatekeeping or spreading info but a secret third thing (keeping your interests secret to avoid judgment from people who may or may not share the same interests as me)

I SAY I’m gatekeeping and then talk about it every second out of reflex. I also stopped publicly claiming to be the biggest Chainsaw Man fan due to the harassment I got in my inbox because “it’s too popular to gatekeep you weirdo!!!” although the people who were sending that were gatekeeping things like Death Note😭😭

gatekeep 😭 some things pertain to my npd image and if i share them and people copy i feel threatened and unoriginal it makes me want to explode

I enjoy sharing :3 I get like gatekeep-y with my faves but only in the sense of disliking misrepresentation
