But... why? I mean, like I said, I can totally understand the 'please do not perve on the very obviously underage actors unless you are their age', but to say, 'please do not perve on the 2D character who the creator tells us is 15 but looks and acts nearly 20 ' seems... weird to me? Especially since as OP says, most writers get around this by just 'aging up' the character in fics.

There's no problem with it in itself. But any kind of laxity, or any kind of formal letter-of-the-law, people are going to take advantage of it and find loopholes and use it as an excuse for things that are problems. Give people on the Internet an inch and they'll take a mile, one way or another.

"give people an inch and they'll take a mile"

this is true, but it's true in both directions, and the inch and then some of "this is basically a good norm SO PEOPLE MAY AS WELL ALWAYS ERR ON THE SIDE OF JUST DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONABLE EROTIC INTERESTS" means people absolutely ARE getting harassed all the time for genuinely harmless stuff

like, you can say you're against that, but that's the mile people are actually taking in fandom spaces right now and have been for awhile
