?
I thought we were discussing it?
I doubt that insensitivity or intentional provocation are often involved. I think it's more a question of not knowing when it's appropriate.
I'm sure I frequently post unneccessary trigger warnings, and likely just as frequently don't post ones I should.
So I was trying for a dialog of when people would like it posted.
My own personal threshold is in describing the results of cutting, or in poetically describing the act of cutting.
As far as what triggers me to want to do the same thing.
