ADULT SURVEY: Should GAG have a limited access "Adult's Only" category based on question, myTake and image content?

[laurieluvsit]

I know this question has been asked before, but it bares repeating as it is much needed, maybe even for some current allowable content.

Ms Noone had a great question asking...

Porn on Youtube?

On Youtube they are allowing porn now, but you have to sign-in first with your email address to prove that you are 18 to watch it. I am not suggesting Porn, although I'm not opposed to it with limited access.

With a special section on GAG like that it would make it harder for anyone under 18 to see some of the more salacious items that are currently posted on GAG, and then even allow R or X-rated items to be posted there, if desired, without any excessive concern. Considering that, a lot of R rated stuff is posted on GAG anyway, until it is eventually reported and removed. At least this way it would have to be signed into with an email address first.

So, I think if not X, at least R, could be allowed on the limited access Adult section. R rated meaning mainly full rear and frontal nudity, but no sex.

R rated movies and shows can even be seen now, unfiltered, on most late night, and sometimes even prime-time, television in most western countries currently.

If you hate soft, or hard core porn, I understand, but that horse is already out of the barn.

I think it would be beneficial if there was a special limited access Adult's Only section for at least the R rated stuff, if not even the totally Adult stuff.

What do you think, honestly? Don't hold back... OK? ... this is a no-judgment zone survey :)

I'm not sure how to answer this. I'm not here for porn nor do ai want to see GAG turn into another porn or adult site. This site has done a lot of help for teens from 13 and up both male and female understand what they are going through puberty, sexuality, dating, teen angst and even issues involving suicide, family, and drugs. You kick them out you are causing more harm to teens who really need this help. Could their be a way for more adult talk without teens seeing it? What the fuck for? This site is not pornhub or youporn. Yes youtube has found a way to limit underage teens to not see adult content. But what is adult content? Schools today are trying to educate sexuality and other issues that teens need to not be thrown under the bus. GAG is one of the few if not the only site where a teen can go to get legitimate help from other teens and adults who are helping them get through their problems. At least that's what I do. I have female friends who do the same and I often direct these teens to them knowing they can trust them. I would rather do away with the trolling, do away with the bullying, and have GAG as a community where anyone can come to get reassurance and the help they need to get through life's issues. So no I don't want a section like that. We need to do better. Youtube and all of those other sites are doing it for the money and trying to build more income. This community should be about helping each other and making this section of the internet a place where everyone is welcome to be themselves free from prejudices and segregation.

[holidaze]

You do make some compelling points.

[laurieluvsit]

An adult section, even if it were for some of the more salacious stuff that GAG allows now, would keep some of the creeps on GAG now off of the area where the 13-17 year olds are, that is my point. Dreaming that they are not going to come here when we see them every day is not realistic in my view. That way the G/PG section could focus on all the things you mention without so much worry or harassment of younger teens

[COMMODOREII]

It has nothing to with dreaming. In fact it would be better to deny those people on the website at all.

[Guardian45]

I am definitely NOT comfortable with the number of under 18s here participating in adult discussions. I DO NOT think it should be permitted. It makes me very uncomfortable, and is NOT healthy, and sometimes NOT safe.

[laurieluvsit]

I would think you would be in support of my idea then.

[Guardian45]

Yes, I chose F.

[Guardian45]

Thank you for MHO!

[LovingJo]

The only way that it would be able to be regulated properly, is if you were to scan and email in ID of yourself and accompanied it with a picture of yourself holding up a piece of paper with a certain phrase of their requirement, that shows that it's you in that ID.
So as much as you know I'd be up for anything girl, I think things do you need to be regulated to protect Minors.. because even though I grew up a lot quicker than most, I think these days things do cause problems and that's why we're in the mess we're in!! We're living in a totally different world than we used to, and only WE can change it!! ❤️

Porn gives a false image of sex and if you develop an addiction you could become desensitised. I think there should be ways to help people cope with porn addiction. Many people watch porn under 18 and it's fair because masturbation starts around 9 or 10 for some people. I think the more grotesque porn should be heavily restricted

[laurieluvsit]

More great insight, you continue to impress... yes, that gets an "A" ... lol

[_gigi18]

Thanks mate 😂😂

[DeeDeeDeVour]

You want a G@G 'Adult Section' added, don't you? ;)

[laurieluvsit]

Yes, it makes a lot of sense to me!

[DeeDeeDeVour]

Ditto! ;)

[ZackBan]

Considering I had explored every "adult section" on the internet by the age of 12 I think it's pointless.
Kids who are curious will find their way in if anything it's safer this way because now it's just a community site with questions and answers and won't attract a puberty rookie who's still not in control of his chakra so to speak.

[normalice]

I guess I'd be fine with it, but wouldn't really understand what to do with such content. I suppose I could offer cinematic advice to those who ask for it. But I have the feeling that would get redundant really fast as people would keep making the same amateur mistakes, because they would satisfy their need to be seen naked rather than legitimately trying to make quality porn.

[Jean-Marie_Céline]

Minors just should not even be on this site.

[Bikerboy123456]

Yes unfortunately young adults are inquisitive but we have to protect them from some people who take advantage of them

[Jean-Marie_Céline]

Laurie that's a nice dislike but I won't change opinion. I block and delete minors on my posts by default.

[laurieluvsit]

No, that is not me who put that down vote Mr Jean. I would not down vote your opinion.

[Jean-Marie_Céline]

I understand, then I apologize for my assumption. I'm a bit jumpy as they closed down my office, I quarreled with my fiancée and just took the car and drove away. I have been on the road for nine hours and slept only three, so I'm a bit jumpy.

[laurieluvsit]

That is OK, I understand. I am so sorry that you are going through this right now. I so hope you have some trusted friends, or relatives, that can help you through this. Now I am worried about you.

[Bikerboy123456]

Well true if it's of a pornograghic nature

[Jean-Marie_Céline]

Thank you for your concern and kind words, I wholeheartedly appreciate them. Don't worry, I'm fine. I'm seeing new sights and countries, I'm having some relax and thought collecting. Only problem is that my fiancée is probably quite pissed for my unpromptu vacation.

[laurieluvsit]

OK, be careful!

[GraveDoll]

I think so...

[Jjpayne]

Gag by its very nature is at least Rated R I did a mytake on this but I would say XXX would scare away many girls. But 17 and below there needs to be some kind of control. Because gag is just a breeding ground for underage activity. It's not like gag can control girls that pose as 30 and say in the comments that they are only 13. But that's spooky... Guys in their late 20s and 30's talking with 13 year old girls... About sex! I am much more careful than I used to be but I make sure they are at least 18. That I think needs to be addressed first before this.

[Luckyman3541]

I think everything should be allowed except like porn vids. If it's like an. Age verified thing and u know ur entering it who cares. Also may help people who have insecureties if they show people there body and get honest opinions. Probably would reduce the amount of unasked for dick pics. Honestly if everyone is of age and agreeing who care

[CarpetDenim]

No...

[Jaximus-Lion]

No one will be putting their real age, it's the internet. On my profile says 35 years old, i can be 16 year old kid pretending being an adult. Just think about it.

[Guardian45]

True, but maturity shows.

[Jaximus-Lion]

@Guardian45 also True. But how long do you want to keep an eye on a user to make sure they are really +18 and how many will you be checking for.

[Guardian45]

Absolutely correct. I shouldn't have to be worried about minors in adult chat!

[olderbutnotwiser]

Tbh if anyone younger is one here they are on here because they are curious, if they weren't able to access some of the more adult themed questions on here by blocking with age... they would go elsewhere looking for answers and might not get the positive experience they get here as everyone answers honestly and there is huge range of ages offering their insight and wisdom.

So no I think it's fine, most subjects are handled tastefully and I've not seen anything too graphic or overly crude for the sake of it and there is not as much trolling as elsewhere which could lead to them getting misinformation that could be damaging.

[olderbutnotwiser]

And I forgot to mention it isn't one way traffic us older folks get a lot of good insight from the more techy younger generation... I struggle with deciphering woman's motives through texting something that younger ones do all day everyday and can offer good answers about the thought process behind a text etc...

[holidaze]

Put me down for keeping the real hardcore stuff on an adults only section. Sometimes I see discussions about acts/desires that are very adult, and one of the parties is 15 or something.

I know that anybody with a computer or iphone can access just about anything these days, but for an organized commercial site like this, I think it would be a good idea to not leave this as open as the wild, wild west.

[Meropatrick]

After the quality of questions i have seen here. I say yes. No kid deserve the horrible fate of reading a question about eye herpes

[loveslongnails]

It's kind of pointless. Once word gets around, kids will all sign up at whatever the minimum required age limit is.

[TahoeHiker]

I feel like if people find adult content is offensive, then they have the choice to not subscribe or log on to it.

[LovingJo]

Children... Are naturally drawn to anything they're curious about and/or not meant to be doing!

[TahoeHiker]

@LovingJo thats true. I didn't exactly phrase my thought as specific as i would have liked. Thanks for your comment

[Scarecrow13]

I do think there should be an adult section labeled NSFW.

[dthomas89]

I don't think people under 18 should be allowed on here at all

[laurieluvsit]

I understand what you are saying but there are a lot of bad sites that under 18 teens could go to in order to learn things. This is by far not the worse site for that and they do need some good places to go. They are given warnings by many concerned members for things to watch out for. If they can't come here they will go to worse sites. You really don't think they will be logging in to romperroom. com do you? ... lol

[dthomas89]

I'm telling you what I think hun

[thewiggles]

Here's the thing though. Kids have a lot of adult problems too sometimes. If they can't ask the right questions it makes it that much harder for them to give and get answers. I think keep Gag basically PG13 like it is and add an R or X version maybe as a whole separate app. The limit of sexual content though does keep the majoriaty of people focussed on real problems I feel though. Communally this app is better on its own like it is. But a more adult content heavy one would be fitting.

[laurieluvsit]

Seems like an adult section would be like a separate app, but a separate app would be good too Good idea as well.

[Meatunnel69]

I can see it now woody

[Meatunnel69]

Haha i said woody, and the character is woody im so fucking clever it’s sickening 🤮

[BoxySama]

😂😂😂😂😂 So true 😂😂😎😎😎

[BoxySama]

And with the targeted demographic, g a g would be shut down for CP in no time

[Bikerboy123456]

I think porn sites and adult nudity should be restricted to 18 plus just my opinion

[navyP]

I really have not seen or read anything yet that I though was to much
And if your worried about underage people. seeing these things trust me they see and hear a lot worse every day
