I know right. I've always wondered this. Why hide your age 🤔
@SunKiss3d cuz when SW opened i was one of the only teenagers and it was hard to be taken seriously

@TryingtoLava so you hide your age as a teenage to be taken more seriously by adults 👀

@SunKiss3d Well you see, most adults here block teenagers. Some of them may not have any friends and just want someone to talk to. That's how it was for me at that age.

@SunKiss3d The other side of the coin for me. I’m among the older posters and when I used to post my age it was an easy attack point when someone younger disagreed with my opinions. I’m not trying to date anyone, and I’m not lying about it, if asked I have no problem telling anyone. And I’m not ashamed, I’ve outlived several of my rl friends. But people have conversations with me, the person, without focusing so much on my age.😊

@bijouxbroussard see that I understand... but the thought of teenagers being allowed to hide their age is weird and bothering. That's just my opinion though 😊 I completely see your side

@SunKiss3d And I understand your point. It troubles me that minors can hide their ages, because then the screening that the site has to protect them doesn’t work and predatory adults can gain access.
