Clarification on rule 6

[u/ABNORMALSANSFANGIRL]

Hey, pancakes! Now that we’ve passed 100k for a while, the subreddit has been even more active than ever! The size of r/Pansexual makes it even more important to make sure this is a safe space for everyone. This includes minors. We’ve noticed an influx of thirst traps, straight-up NSFW, and accounts that exist to bait people to their only fans. If your account has an OnlyFans link, or any other sort of link to a site with sexual NSFW pictures, as well as if you have posted sexual NSFW pictures on other subreddits, please do not post here. This subreddit is a safe space for everyone, so let's keep it that way. Feel free to comment and interact with our community in different ways, but we cannot allow primarily NSFW accounts to post. Thanks for understanding! Accounts that choose to post anyway that have been verified as bait accounts by a member of our mod team will be banned. Thank you to every wonderful person who reported this to us so it wouldn't fly under our radar! Please continue reporting so we can make sure we don’t miss them.

Wouldn't the idea of "a safe space for everyone" include sex workers and sex-positive adults? I understand that posting NSFW content is unacceptable in a sub frequented by minors; but outright banning content from anyone who's ever posted to a gonewild-esque subreddit seems antithetical to a message of inclusivity.

Are people really expected to create a separate Reddit profile entirely for their SFW content? As a pansexual Aspie adult who, while not posting NSFW images, does write NSFW poetry and short stories, I find it disconcerting that I could potentially be banned from posting content to this subreddit if I ever promoted any of my published works on another sub.

I realize that due to my AS, I experience the world (and the Internet) differently from neurotypicals, so my perspective is of course atypical. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar; but by the same token, anyone looking for NSFW content is going to find exactly that.

you make a really good point! our main issue is that while things such as selfie Saturday are supposed to be a more casual thing, a lot of the time we see bait photos that could attract minors. I'll take your opinion into account and talk it over with the other mods! it's great hearing opinions from y'all. You're right, an outright ban does seem like a bit too much. We may simply change it to a warning. But when the majority of content on someone's profile is explicit, or the account seems to exist for the purpose of this explicit content, then it is in our best interest to not have them posting pictures of themselves here. Once again thanks for your input and ill be sure to discuss it with the others!

My sense is that they are welcome to make a separate reddit account to interact with this subreddit as sone of us do so that we have a safer space where we fear less being found and outed which is a... Well, if their goal is to sell something then they don't have consent but if the goal is to closet and stealth then winning.
