                                                Abuse is a good way to explore a character. The genre ranges from the heartbreaking to the hilarious.  It's incredibly fluid.  You're putting a character in arguably the worst situation for them you possibly could and learning how might they react to it.  If you've got broken bird syndrome you're in a fucking wonderland. When done right, abuse content is like bringing buckets to a bottomless dopamine well.

                                                Also - Flat out torture for its own sake. Abuse is a format for Fucked Up Emotional Dynamics. Physical abuse is fine and welcome but keep it sensible to an abuse context. If it's the kind of extreme you'd see in a fluffy story, it's not welcome here.  Victims  should be traumatized first and foremost, not mutilated and murdered.

                                                Otherwise, as long as it's abuse, it's welcome.
