        Not as much a horny board as much as a horny containment zone. Thus, horny gulag.

        Yeah you're right. Thought maybe any comm made in this vein could be hijacked to teach peeps consent and sexuality. Feel kind of weird to admit it but I used too love the radio program loveline. The hosts were massive tools think mega lib and mega chud if not aware but it was something in terms of sexual education. Maybe also including sex worker positive resources so as to combat swerfs and the like. But any hypothetical upsides would get drowned out by younger comrades possibly being taken advantage of. Idk feels like a can of worms the more I type.

        Is there any hard data to actually back that up tho?

        I get the sense that the vast majority of people here are in their 20s personally.

          Most are in our 20s, late in my case, but we definitely have people in their late teens

          At least 2 of them have explicitly stated that they are under 18

            Sure, but how many of them actually are there. Single digits?

            If they're not just a minority, but a tiny one at that, I don't think it's as big of a potential threat as people make it out to be.

                No need to be a douche.

                Also: "Welcoming to everyone"?

                Really?

                I don't know if you've noticed, but Chapo isn't exactly a G-rated place, never has been lol.

                    That's why I want a horny gulag. To get the horniness off of the rest of the site. The concept would be to limit hornyposting to the gulag, so that Chapos who don't want to see that content don't have to.

                    Oh, will you stop.

                    One community that you'd have to go out of your way to find, not a default "everyone's-subscribed-to-it" one, is not going hurt people.

              Yeah, i just don't know what to do about it though

              Horny comm for containing people being horny is all well and good, but nothing stops the teenagers going in there, then shit gets weird real quick

                There's literally nothing you can realistically do if a someone under 18 is absolutely hellbent on getting in somewhere they're not supposed to.

                I say give a stern warning in the sidebar and a threat of banning if anyone under 18 reveals themselves there, and give what under-18 Chapos there are on this site the benefit of a doubt that they'll obey that rule and be smart/considerate enough not to lie and potentially get their over-18 comrades in a troublesome situation.

                  Still not a fan of the idea of flirting with someone (jokingly or not) who later turns out to be a minor

                  Whether others would say it isn't my fault or not i would still feel fucking disgusted with myself

                    I've offered what solution I can.

                    I welcome any other ideas if someone else thinks they have a better one for achieving the same goal.
