What will 'finer-grained controls for content maturity' look like?

If they use sandpaper to correct SL sex issues, would that be an A-sex or A-violence rating? Maybe an A-kink rating?

I think sandpaper sounds more fair. The alternative being "eye bleach", why should I be the one to suffer?

there is no again, if he is useless the first time, there is no seconds.

but for a first encounter, he might be taking the time to write a really awesome well thought out emote to get things moving.

Yet some of us, who are older and have been married for almost 30 still have regular sex in RL!   Why does everyone think that when you hit a certain age that sex just stops?  Boggles my mind. 

It shouldn't, it's part of human needs, but that's dependent on the two parties involved. You might think so, and I agree with you, but if your monogamous life partner isn't on that same train, then yeah, it can just stop.

Boggles my mind that, but that is also a reality within a monogamous relationship.

Yeah I should have split the politics part out from the other part. I guess the mixed rants confused some.

 

But... if we want finer maturity controls then let me see if I can do a TL:DR.

• Split the maturity system for levels of violence and levels of sexual content apart. These are radically different things.
  • Places should be rated for each independently.
  • I don't want 'mainland A' to allow for extreme violence.
    • While graphic decapitations, mutilations, severed limbs, and bloody gore are 'safe for church and kids G' content in the USA, in the rest of the world they're considered slightly unpleasant topics and I'd prefer 'violent A' be limited to estates. By contrast while 'holding hands or smiling at people' is nearly a criminal offense in the USA, most of the rest of the 'western' world is OK with people being romantic or even friendly.  
• Give people the ability to assign themselves a maturity rating. If you're not set to that rating, you don't see them in search.
  • Optional let us make a profile for G and another for A.
