Do think Fluther should have a separate teen section?

Asked by jealoustome (1514points) March 13th, 2010

I’ve seen questions by thirteen year olds on fluther. This leads me to wonder if they are reading some of the questions and answers labeled “NSFW” and how I would feel if my young daughter was reading them. We don’t shelter her, but I wouldn’t feel comfortable with her reading some of the adult-themed conversations. Example: “Women do you like to swallow?”

On the other side, I think some of the teen questions are kind of lame. I hate to say that, but they are really questions that other teens would enjoy answering, but that I, as an adult, find a little inane. I know the devil’s advocate response would be to say that the adult questions posed on this site are equally lame, and I agree. But, it still seems like it might be nice to have a place on this site for teens to ask other teens teen questions. Example: “How do I know if the boy in study hall likes me?”

Teens, I think you’re awesome. Please don’t respond to this question to tell me what a lame, overprotective adult I am. Adults, same.
