Yeah, I learned a lot about my sexuality from fandom space discussions. I feel sad that teenagers don't have the same safe spaces like that anymore too.

I appreciate having a locked 18+ fandom discord to chat on, but idk about age-gating in general. I have mixed feelings, I suppose. I had LJ fandom friends in their mid teens when I was in my 30s, and it never used to be a problem, but the internet's a very different place now.

Also any time you mark an online space out as for people under 18, it risks attracting predators.

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, I absolutely agree with you, OP.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not sure if I agree with the thesis here that fandom was once a safe space for teenagers to learn about their sexuality and is now a significantly less safe space for teenagers to learn about their sexuality

Not sure I agree with either part of it, to be honest; it seems to me that it wasn't necessarily safe in the first place, and it seems to me that a teenager who wanted to learn about their sexuality through fanfic would still be able to do so if they wanted to

IDK

[(Anonymous)]

Agreed on both points. I especially miss those "I am over 18" buttons. Let teens lie about their age all they want, if they're that determined to see the dirty stuff, but I really think those things made it much more clear whose fault it was if/when they got squicked.

IMO wanting the Hobbit movies to be more LOTR-like was a mistake in the first place, that's not what they are and trying to turn them into that was always going to lead to problems

[(Anonymous)]

I think it's less 'safe space' as in "it was safe for teens to learn sex through porn online" and more "it was considered a relatively normal thing to discover and explore one's sexuality in one's teenage years through online exposure, if one wished, rather than being shamed to within an inch of one's life for daring to have One (1) Sexual Thought before the age of 21".

A lot of what we got was because of the studio forcing it, that wouldn't have changed no matter the director. Studios gotta studio.

[(Anonymous)]

100% with you there.

Embrace it and enjoy it, Nonny!
