(Anonymous) 2021-11-19 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)I think the problem you're having is that you spend so much time around teenagers that you're hypervigilant and obssessive about it, and forget that fandom as a whole does not revolve around teenagers, and that the kind of creepiness you talk about seeing is actually not all that common outside of teen zones. Because why would someone who wants to creep on teens hang out in a fandom that's mostly adults (which is most fandoms that aren't based on faddish teen media)? They won't find what they're looking for there.
So you're taking something that's a problem in one specific area of fandom, and projecting it all over people who make adult stuff for an adult audience. And yes, adult erotica creators are often very much at risk for negative consequences based on puritanism.

(Anonymous) 2021-11-20 12:20 am (UTC)(link)Using different pseudonyms is good marketing. Having to hide or disavow "edgier" work altogether, well, I understand why people do it but I wish they didn't feel like they had to.
