By that logic a grown adult could date a 15 yo and it would be perfectly normal, they're not 5 after all. Just because it's a game it doesn't mean it's okay to interact with it if you're a minor. Plus, when you'll grow a few years you'll realize how much you didn't actually know at 15. Stay safe and away from stuff that is not meant for you.
When on GOD'S GREEN EARTH was pedophilia brought into the goddamn mix?? Obviously I don't think that??? Wtf???????
Where on earth did you get "adults can date 15 year olds" from "15 year olds are mature enough to handle explicit topics in a safe manner"??
The conversation was about being able to understand and enjoy mature media even as a teenager not that teenagers were mature enough to date goddamn PEDOPHILES just because they could handle mature themes in a fuckin VISUAL NOVEL that's, dare I say, HARDLY that scary or mature compared to a lot of other games in it's genre alone. It's hardly a game that requires an 18+ rating in my opinion but that depends on your own thoughts.
I may not know everything now as a teenager, but as someone who's been on the internet pretty much ALL their life I'd like to think I'm perfectly capable of understanding and safely enjoying games with complex and mature themes. And in no way did I EVER insinuate that I thought that BECAUSE of that maturity that I or ANY other teen my age should date a grown ass adult.
Genuinely where did you pull that argument out of???? Your ass???? Thin air itself???? This is a GENUINE question you have completely baffled me dear stranger
I am a teenager dating another teenager and enjoying media with topics a teenager is perfectly able to handle, and saying that other teenagers can enjoy and handle those types of games just as well. I wanna know how utterly braindead you think I am because in no way does your tone or argument make me believe you are taking this conversation seriously in any way shape or form.
The conversation was about media literacy. Being able to understand, handle, and enjoy media with explicit themes while also staying safe as a minor in those spaces. And somehow you pulled "so you support pedophilia?" Into the mix and now I'm genuinely baffled as to what your argument is meant to be here.
No, I DON'T think 15 should or COULD date adults nor have I EVER stated I did. I said I think people my age can enjoy media meant for adults and still stay safe within fandom spaces MEANT for adults. And with all do respect the YB fandom is not anything worse than other fandoms for more "age appropriate" medias I've been a fan of. It's not unsafe for me, nor anyone my age, and I think you need to stop treating me as if I'm a baby who needs to be corrected and saved from the big scary mature themes.
I should've said this the first time but genuinely what gives you the right to tell ME what I can't and can't enjoy. You may be older but age doesn't guarantee higher maturity or intelligence, nor does it guarantee you have authority over me.
I wanted to be respectful about this but your newest argument genuinely makes me question your ability to have a genuine and mature conversation with me on this topic, so DISrespectfully get off my page and stop trying to tell me what to do. I am no longer contributing to this conversation as it is clear you will not be mature about this or even try to understand my argument. This conversation is over. Block me, leave, I don't care, I will not respond to any of your takes on this topic after this.
