    Sure - but that doesn't mean teenagers should feel scared and ashamed that they are experiencing sexual desire in their personal lives. If someone can't tell the difference b/t memes for community health and religious like moral precepts, something is getting lost in translation. That's how communities that start out as ironic get taken over by a culture that's not ironic anymore. More and more people join that aren't literate in the memes and read them literally, and then begin enforcing them literally. It's a real pickle in community culture development patterns.

      There's plenty of normal, healthy horny posting on this site that nobody calls the volcel police over. It's better to have a community-supported mechanism for shutting down people who cross the line into unwanted horny posting that's low-pressure enough that it doesn't make the person getting sent to horny gulag double down and decide that everyone else is wrong

        There certainly is now - we'd be in agreement over that, I'm referring to that spell we went through when that was not the case.
