What's the personal ethic code for your stories like?

Pretty self explanatory. We've all once thought of some disturbing ideas and heavy themes for your stories. But for you , where do you usually draw the line and consider it too disturbing for you to write without questioning yourself.
For me it's anything that revolves around smut or descriptions of the infamous word that rhymes with grape. (Which I will often only mention implicitly) along with torture and mutilation of animals and humans.

I don't like writing sex scenes. They bore me.

It's all rather mechanical. There's more to love than just sex (There's intimacy. There's lying in bed talking. There's hugging and kissing and cuddling.)

I don't write romance, that is not something I like writing. Other than that, everything else go.
How far?
So far, my MC is an Ableist (my story take place in near cyberpunk era, so she's looking down on cybernetic prostetics), a war crime supporter, animal right denier, don't care about nature and support polution, speciest; along with praising humanity and its charities, an advocate for moral justice and absolute progress.

I am a DM, nothing I do with un-traumatise me about what my players did to me. In my opinion, I can't be worse than my players.

I used to be adverse to writing certain things, but now I'll write whatever I want and feel like. Though, I wouldn't write certain fetishist, simply because I'm not into them.

good question, I guess I'm too afraid to kill my characters off but that's not really a "code"

I’m guessing box fetish is a green light though. :blob_hide:

There isn’t much I would want to write that I wouldn’t write, if that makes sense. If something doesn’t sound like it would be fun to write, for example a gratuitous torture scene, then it probably won’t make it into the story. I don’t do this to be kind to my readers though.

If I thought that a brutal rape laced with misogyny and racism was somehow the correct next scene for my story, I’d do it. I don’t really see a situation where that would be correct, but if that was the next logical point on the graph it would happen. I still get people commenting their vitriol about a certain point relatively early in my first story that touched upon something that looked like NTR if you squint. I’ve objectively lost readers for it, but I’d do it again if it was right.

I frequently push myself to move outside of my comfort zone.
Had one story, sadly lost to multiple computer crashes, that I kept having to step away from as it kept getting darker and darker as all of the characters were ... well, all but one, really... disgusting monsters - and that one may not even exist.
So far I have never written more than a short story with an "evil" MC, but do have one with an MC willing to lie or withhold information from anyone, including the writer (not long enough to share anywhere yet)...
