Rouge the Bat's age should be moved up to 21. No 18 year old high schooler should be dressed in a suggestive manner. This is promoting Ephebophilia both Canon and in the fandom. She's just ASKING for the degrading weird fanart, and 18 year old high schoolers should not be sexualized. This bothers me to no end ever since someone I followed said 18 year olds are considered minors. Why the hell is it considered the age of consent then? (My state has it as 16 which is even worse) Not to mention she's an animal.

Game companies that make childrens games like Nintendo and Sega, please make more plus size characters I can relate to that the incel basement dwellers would avoid. If they are still fanservice, make sure they are 20+ years old.

That person is wrong. 18 is the age of majority and adults don't need to be infantilized.

I'm not promoting that kind of thing. I don't know what to think anymore.

I'm not saying you're promoting it, but the person who told you 18 year olds are minors is. Age of majority isn't the same everywhere, but the green is for where it's 18. It's pretty much the entire world with a handful of exceptions. Even if you're somewhere where it's different, it's fair to accept that most of the world considers 18 to be AoM.

Here's my view I actually consider 18 the awkward age - it's considered legal to vote and reproduce, but not to drink and such.

Most places allow people to drink at 18. My province it's 19 to drink or buy cigarettes, but you're still legally an adult at 18.

It's not unusual for places to give some rights before others. Withholding a certain right (like being able to buy liquor) doesn't mean you're not an adult, especially when they'd also let you join the military at 17 (in the US). Apparently you can be mature enough to get shot at, but not mature enough to vote.

18 can be a bit awkward, especially depending on a few variables. When I was 17, a 20 something young man in my church made it clear on several occasions that he had the countdown of when I’d turn 18 firmly in mind. I felt self-conscious about him looking at my legs when I got baptized at 15. He was a weirdo, and my turning 18 didn’t change that fact in my mind.

Overall though, 18 year olds are technically adults. I think they should change the laws regarding alcohol, especially since they let people join the military at such a young age.

As someone who creates and draws her own cast of cartoon animals, people are going to make degrading fan art no matter what age the character is or how they physically appear, so you might as well draw them however you want.

Years ago I once saw fan art of Bub, the *10-year-old* green Bubble Dragon from the Bubble Bobble games, drawn as an adult female with huge breasts. :eew:

Yes, it's creepy and total cringe, but most humans, especially sex-crazed teenagers, are idiots and love rule 34. There's nothing you can do about it, so you might as well ignore it so it doesn't drive you insane.

Also 18 is legally an adult, at least in Canada and Traitor Country. But most 18 year olds are incredibly immature and idiotic for their age. Most 18 year olds have graduated from high school and are getting ready for college. It was once common for someone to automatically move out of their parents' house when they turned 18 and live their own life. Of course, that's mainly the older adult's fault.
