We do not allow stories where the characters are under 16 years old. Most of the developed world has the age of consent at 16, so I believe it's fine for stories to have characters of that age or older.
Funny how people don't pay attention to rules no matter how many times you tell them, whether they are 7th grade students, or adults who should know better!
Then I have to ask:
Why is it 18 to join an Adult site
Why is it 18 to marry without parent permission
Why is it if a girl is under 18 and was sex it's still and what is the chart headers
And the disclaimers that no one is under 18 yrs old ?

It's hard to know where to draw the age line on certain items.
Why can a person smoke at 18 but not drink until 21 in the US?
Why can a person vote and fight for his/her country at 18, but not have a beer?
Why can a person drive and be allowed to legally drop out of school at 16 when the decision making part of the brain is not fully developed until 25?
Why can a person smoke, drink, vote, go to war, own a home...but NOT rent a car until age 25? (I'm guessing car rental agencies pay attention to the brain research).
But I have to say, looks like Lush did her homework on this one guys. (Thanks Lush)

ps...I'd prefer the characters be 18 too....because my son is 17 and it is creepy thinking about...well...you know!

They tried it when the 18 yr old got the vote, but it got back into the school much to easy. So the age was raised.

I was 18 in the service and could drink ( 1974-77), but now - ask Chef if that is still true.

But not in Minnesota while out parent or gaurdian permission. Other state not sure.

This has to do with Insurance.

Glad it's Lush that has to.
I also will not read an under 18 story. Even if a parent gave permission to marry and drop out and ...
Thank Lush for opening the door and letting me vent. Your RULES.

Typical parental thinking *giggles*. I bet my parents still think I'm a virgin...
You misunderstood...
I just don't like reading stories where the characters are the same age as my son. It makes it totally non-erotic for me because it'd be like being turned on by my son, which is soooo not my thing.
As for thinking my son is a virgin or not....we talk very openly and I know where he stands on sex.
Just a reminder, it seems some people don't take us seriously enough.
I can't do much more than post a warning in our terms and conditions, in the forum, people are told to read the terms when they join etc:
