Your thoughts on knowingly interacting with minors (under 18) on RS?
There's nothing wrong with it. Minors are human beings with rights too. Society is so ageist against minors and treats them as second-class citizens and property instead of as people with rights. A lot of people are scared to interact with them like they have some kind of disease or something. The infantilization of minors is another problem. People aren't babies until they turn 18.
They are humans at the end of the day - so I'm comfortable talking to them, unless they say things that the 'youth of the day' say like... lit... rizz... and other gross stuff. If they flirt with me, and its caught my attention, I'll ask their age, if its under 18 I'll get the spray bottle and shoo their thirsty arse away :)
I can talk to toddlers but can toddlers use a computer? Nope. So I think I can also talk to teens who can talk to a computer. But there is only one means of guessing age here: Parsing the text for tik-tok talk or teen slang. So far nobody said to me: Hi, I'm a 13 y.o. Kevin-the-impostor and want to flirt with you. That didn't happen probably becasue I am of no interest to those. But that doesn't hinder adults to impose as teens. Social interaction is a minefield.
Illegal
But 18? I don't think anyone should be that young ever, either.
Are some? Well, it's innocent enough. 😁
