      My school did mention that sending nudes are effectively producing and possessing illegal pornography. A few people in the class looked surprised and proceeded to delete pictures they or their partners had sent.

      But sex-ed is sexualizing children!

      – people, who own a large amount of what the writer of the greentext searched for

        That’s absolutely it. It’s not just hypocrisy either, scum like that don’t want children to be educated and participate the anti-sex-ed movement.

      I discovered it when I was like 15-16. But Some middleschooler did explain to me where kids come from when I was 8 that was a whole thing.

      Opinion: I think curiosity about sex/pleasure starts a lot younger age than I feel most people are comfortable acknowledging/talking about openly.

        It is pretty much a fact that many people aren’t keen on talking. I mean, you’ll be hard pressed to find any 13yo boy who never masturbated. Girls probably don’t masturbate as much, since they’re much more likely to suffer psychological terror from religious parents, but they also get horny and ovulation will make them extra horny. Hormones don’t give a shit.

        More directly, 18 is not the moment you take the shrink-wrap off your genitals. It’s when you get thrown to the wolves. It’s the point where you’re assumed to already know enough that all your future decisions are your own fault.

        Drives me up the wall when fandoms are like ‘You can’t show that seventeen-year-old having impure thoughts about a close friend! It’s still six months until they can get facefucked on camera for money.’ If y’all can’t handle that for fictional characters, the unrefined horniness of actual pubescent humans is going to obliterate your psyche.

      I didn’t even get the internet until I was 20 and then it was crappy dial-up that used to take 45 minutes to download a single picture.

      Na, porn was in magazines and on VHS. I don’t think I really got to see any of that until I was 15, but that was because it was easier to limit access back then.

      I do remember looking up porn at that age, but it was just to laugh at it. I found it disgusting at the time, and hilarious. I was pretty much sex-repulsed until my early 20’s.

          I do consider myself greysexual now. It’s weird being greysexual, 'cause you think you can relate to your allosexual friends, but then they won’t stop wanting a grilfriend, to the point that they will put themselves in life’s risk for some chance. One even fell for some romance scams (didn’t help that he was a manipulative pathological liar himself).

          It’s so weird and scary that they could just not focus on something else. Meanwhile, I can forget about that and focus on a hobby or local politics or something.

              I think I was always on the ace spectrum, but I found out probably around 15-ish. (I’m 29 now).

              Although, I can’t call myself fully ace, but I did treat myself that way in high school (which I regret). Hence, the greysexual label.

      I have seen other people on the Internet describe similar experiences.

      Of course that is part of why there are young looking pornstars.

        I’m a bit sceptical whether or not this is the main reason why the extremely-underage-looking actors are accepted into the porn industry.

          I wouldn’t be surprised if that was a big reason.

          That said, the whole porn trope of a clearly-not-teenager dressing up as a “teenager” with pigtails and everything is just…weird. It’s not a turn on for me in the slightest. Even when I was a teenager and came across that, my first thought was “that’s not how girls my age operate”.

        i once saw an nsfw subreddit specifically for porn of people (mostly girls) who look very young (literally looked like children)

        i don’t know if their goal was appealing to children or people who are attracted to children but it was incredibly weird, so i got out of there and never looked in there again

          Oh, right. The Jailbait. The subreddit run by Reddit’s CEO, the subreddit chosen especially to sexualize women that look like girls, Jailbait subreddit. That subreddit?
