Horrific, deplorable violence is okay, as long as people don't say any naughty words!

"[GameJolt's] large audience of 13-16 year olds" has been "vocal about not wanting this content on their platform."

Shit that never happened

Game Jolt in recent months has received $2.6 million from investors ... leading others to question whether the move is more about potential backlash from credit card issuers like Visa and MasterCard than sincere content policies.

More likely

13-16 year olds are well known for their dislike of adult/sexual content

Lmaooooooo

They could have come up with pretty much anything else and it would have been more believable than this.

In all fairness, people that age will balk at certain things because they think it makes them look mature.

It's not completely unbelievable - I never had a license to look at sexual content - before I realized you didn't need one - and gore was undesirable at that age. Ok, so I was probably still a lil perv or whatnot, and I'm sure I wasn't COMPLAINING - like hey I don't need any of that sex stuff - I just felt like something was wrong with it or something because society is stupid

But not all kids are into sexual/horrible things, and regarding how vocal they would be about it...? Not impossible to think about but Idk, i don't care, I grew up

at that age I was emailing some weird blog writer dude about how anal sex with a female cannot be considered "gay"

The 13-16 aren't the ones asking for removal... Like at all...

And even if some were, they probably weren't vocal about it... And some probably weren't vocal because of how it might look to friends.

Yea. No way a bunch of 13-16 YO's were the ones demanding the removal of sexual content and no way would a company knowingly send people over to a competitor like that. More likely either their CEO got demands from investors that they purge any sort of 'adult content' from their platform or they think it's some high-ground moral thing.

They will, but sexual content is not one of them. Teenagers (especially teenage boys) don't complain about the existence of sexual content on a platform. Their parents do.

If anything, teenagers that age will take either take pride in finding such content, or take to shameful secrecy like they're doing something utterly taboo. There's no real in-between; just some poor, awkward souls trying to figure themselves out.

While I can see some modern teens screeching about such content 'oppressing' women or 'normalizing the sexualization of women' or whatever... Yea. The simple fact is that the vast majority of teens would be buying M games specifically BECAUSE they're M-rated and, thusly, 'forbidden'. They're not the ones pushing for this ban.

Nobody's going to do that. They want the games just because they want them. I didn't want M rated games because they were M rated. I wanted fun games.
