"Why is your fic M-rated? It's not graphic, it seems safe for teen readers."
Because I am an adult in an online fandom space. I only want to engage with OTHER adults, not children who are left unsupervised over the internet, which on its own all but eliminates basic social boundaries.
I am also neither a movie studio nor a television network. I am writing fiction FOR FREE and FOR FUN. I don't need to keep things "ad-friendly" to get as many eyes watching it to sell ad-space or to sell tickets to get as many people to see nearly an hour's worth of previews before the feature.
