I understand that Hexbear has young and vulnerable people, making it potentially unsafe for something as personal and private as sexuality, but I was wondering if there are many online spaces that are friendly and nonjudgmental for that.

There are topics I'd like to discuss like classism in hookup culture/kink communities, but I don't want to make people uncomfortable. I also can't account for wreckers and just general topic derailment.

Also in general, are there considerations I should take when broaching these topics in online spaces?

I feel like we're doing a good job of protecting people from sex pests and I don't want to make a safe place unsafe.

    porn zone

    I think OP is looking for a place to have honest discussions about sex, not an explicitly horny space where people post porn. those are two entirely different things

      Yeah. Like I think it's weird to consider the power dynamic at play when only wealthy people can safely host, especially if you're queer.

      Or the way racist sexual stereotypes dehumanizes people of color.

        You mean only people who have their own place can safely invite people over to hook up?
