I think I just aged 4 decades.

I am a fairly liberal parent, okay, no, I am an extremely liberal parent. The line I draw for what my daughter may or may not be exposed to has made more than one person cringe ...
And yet I just found something that made even me go "What in fuck is this doing linked from the LJ homepage!??!!"

Everyone (over the age of majority) following along?

Featured on the LJ homepage.

One click away and we are still good. The list is a bit … strange from a western perspective maybe (or so say the comments). Not the point, but there is that link there.

Click the link (click 2) and … huh. The side bar here is certainly ‘interesting’ and I can see some having an issue with their 13 year old child seeing this (No, I am not one of them, but I can at least see how it might be an issue).

I am not seeing what I think I am seeing. AM I seeing what I think I am seeing?

Oh. My. Gods.

3 simple clicks from the homepage of LiveJournal. 3 clicks. 3 clicks I can see a lot of early teen children following. It started out with the hook of “what is cute” and then reels in with  “cosplay”.

Am I the only one having an issue with this?

There was an uproar when you could see naked women on LJ staff's friends list. ONTD links a lot to this site - it's really creepy when you read an article about objectifying women and see the sidebar.

Random note - I see you reading Loveless :P . Uh, and that thing where they put a politician (or a manager?) into an oven.
