Bro, YT just ate my OWN comment even though I PINNED it wtf. I apologise to anyone else that had their comment Thanos-ed!
As for what I was trying to add: A lot of people in the comments have said that seeing NSFW and entering adult spaces when they were minors has caused them a lot of mental strain and struggles. I actually relate to and agree with this notion; NSFW can really affect young minds and warp their perceptions of adult topics. Because I only slightly touched on this in the video, I thought it would be important for me to add more of an acknowledgement here. If you are a kid reading this and you are uncomfortable with NSFW topics and artwork and whatever else, that's valid and you are valid to avoid that. Keep yourselves safe!
On another note: Yes, we all wish minors would stay away from adult spaces, but it's kind of an unrealistic request with how the internet is nowadays. Minors are going to be hormonal, they're going to be sexual, and even if they make the mistake of being public about their own self-discovery, they should not be harassed, bullied, or shamed for it. If you're someone who attacks a minor because "Adult content is harmful", you're literally just harming that child yourself by harassing them. Yes, if you find out a minor is in an adult space, out them for it, ban them from whatever group they are in, but bashing them publicly is probably just as harmful as them being there in the first place.
I agree, Yes, minors shouldn’t be introduced to adult content on the internet, but as a minor myself, we can’t really change anything about it, Especially about how the internet has a lot of adult content, It dosent break any law but i agree it would change the minor’s view of world, Imo, It would change a lot about them, and a lot of minors have seen things they shouldn’t have seen, but the internet is the internet, Yes, parental controls exist, but, minors and kids would still be able to access content, Some kids are really smart and can access adult content by turning it off in the settings, some apps are more secured, but some aren’t, some will have a little setting to turn it off, or it would just send an email to the guardian, on topic, minors shouldn’t obviously see what the internet has to offer, but parents have to know that we all would wish minors won’t see those nsfw content, unfortunately there is no button to disable all the nsfw & adult content, on the bad side, minors and kids will get their mind’s affected, on the good side, there isn’t really one, but, if kids are mature enough they will close the tab and move on, they can’t escape the things they see on the internet, it’s algorithm generated, it’s not about maturity imo, kids will be kids, they will see some stuff and parents have to accept it, parents need to know that they also have to do their part and teach children about everything in life, yes, for example 6 is a VERY young age, and not a acceptable age to talk about it, but i suggest kids around 7-9 should know, it’s really not the kid’s fault that the algorithm recommends sometimes nsfw stuff, sometimes the kid searches up adult content, but some don’t, really we should all know wishes wont always happen, even if we all wish it would, we really should begin to know that it won’t happen, the internet is a place to make friends, but we will see some stuff we won’t always be supposed to see, its the internet.

@just pretend i don't exist What?
@justpretendidontexist you mean the YT creator???
What did their comment say? they seem to have deleted it
I mean to be fair, ASKING a minor to draw corn for you is kinda weird and gross. Even if the minor is ok w/ adult content with that, its still gross and immoral to ask a minor to draw stuff like that.
i feel like i'm going through this right now 😭
“Its morally wrong 🥺🥺🥺😭😭” call me a criminal…game is game 🤷🤷🤷
@@woob9287 what 💀
Corn- what's wrong with corn-
@@kvromi_XD- it’s a word for replacing the word that starts with a p spell corn but replace c with p I’m not the best at explaining 💀
As an 18 year old, my take is that while it's okay for minors to draw NSFW (it's normal to be hormonal and explore that privately), it should *not* be posted. I have seen a fair share of creepy adults who can tell that the artist is underaged and flock in like a bunch of seagulls to try grooming them (happened to old internet friends and acquaintances). I also had a 21-23 year old who attempted to groom me when I was 13. It's disturbing.
Yeah if you don’t share it then its yours no one ever saw it and no one will ever see it
I get that there is exitement and a thrill of seeing other people enjoy what you did or give critisism on what you should inprove, but just do it with conventional art
@@memor22 I agree
Totally agree with you!!
As a [CENSORED] years old.. yes i'm not joking and like for my age i know what does that mean.. then i draw cringe NSFW i keep it to myself, not showing on social medias and/or apps where you can show pictures.. and i understand i was too young to be on internet but it have been my childhood.. and people that make NSFW and more things that contain 18+ should be stoped.. it honestly hurt me how kids and/or young teenagers see those arts and try to avoid them or no..
Those 18+ arts need to be stoped for 100%..
And grooming.. uhh i rather do not tell but let's say i have been a bit groomed and i made 18+ roleplays with one of person i met as 5 or 6 years old kid...
I agree with that comment you wrote and with you.
@@CursedGarbage You have no clue how hormones and libido work, do you? It's normal for teenagers to be interested in sexual content. Plus, nudity doesn't necessarily equate to eroticism. Parents are responsible for their children, not NSFW authors
BRO THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING
I draw no no art as a minor, and I think it's ok for other minors to do so as long as it's not shared publicly. But no one listens to me, I'm glad someone in the art community has a brain.
*agreement noises*
Agreed.
exactly!
Ok 👌
Same here, and I agree with you!
Highkey you're one of my new favourite art youtubers since most of the old ones ended up having massive controversies 💀
FR THO
…Cough cough Creepshow art…
same. I was really into the art commentary channels some time ago because the videos were perfect when I just needed to unwind to some art and listen to stuff I don't actually care about that much as background noise, but I definitely prefer people who AREN'T massive assholes
@@xoderota I just stopped caring if people have been in controversies. Like who cares if the videos are fine? I just need noise to draw i dont care what its saying as long as its n o i s e
@@teamtwistedtoons it depends though. If they do something really bad and you still watch them despite knowing what they did is wrong, you're encouraging them to act again as they think no one will care and they'll still profit without any problems or even seeing the error of their ways.
I drew NSFW art as a minor (mainly middle school to high school, maybe younger but not too sure about it) I also posted some of it on Tumblr (not sure if the account is still up, I think I nuked it around the same time I created it)
Now, I'm 20 (who is also an NSFW artist) my view is that kids drawing NSFW stuff is whatever frankly (i would assume it's a fairly common experience) but don't upload it online, keep it in your sketchbook or a private folder. I was young, dumb, and didn't really know any better. I still think it's kinda weird how I started to draw NSFW material as a child and still do as an adult
What's wrong about it?
Any platform I can follow you ?
@@SMN9a💀
your disgusting
@@CamelliaFlingert bruh
I drew a lot of nsfw art at a minor. It was just fun. Teens can be hormonal and horny and personal art feels like a pretty safe way of expressing that.
It also kinda served as a starting point for figuring out anatomy…. To make an nsfw piece look good, I had to start figuring out muscles and bones and what different body parts are and what to call them. I was at a significant advantage when health class came about in high school and we were labeling the different body parts on work sheets.
I remember sharing some of the art with my friends every now and again, though I would always censor the genitals cause I felt embarrassed. Like I would put little heart emojis covering them and stuff. Never posted it fully online. I don’t think any youth should.
I remember my ex also drew a lot of nsfw art and would show me as well. We never slept together, we just roleplayed and sent each other our cringy art of our characters. Of all cringy, dangerous high school experiences, this was probably one of the most chill and explorative and fun and has left little to no negative impact on my adult brain.
I started drawing nsfw art when I was 16 or 17. I never posted it anywhere on my social medias. Now that I'm 18 and thinking about making a nsfw account but I don't know how to keep minors from following it. I don't draw much nsfw art, it's sometimes just sketches.
On most social media, you can remove and block followers that you don't want. You can't really be 100% sure that everyone who follows you is an adult, but if they don't have an age in their bio or their age is below 18, you can remove them as a follower and block them. Hope that helps! ^^
@@rottika thank you! This is helpful! ^^
@OfficiallyTrust Issues Exactly lol. And tbh someone can just run out of the street naked and that's more curse than seeing an art piece of a paper woman naked
I see so many 18+ accounts say stuff like this, there is a way to keep minors off your page but no one’s doing it.
It’s called making your account private. (Not trying to be rude tho :> just letting you know)
@@Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh true true but what another person said that it's not your responsibility to monitor what someone else's kids see online, and if you private an account you might as well not have a huge goal in the followers department since not many ppl will be able to follow yet see ur art that way
Ok, so I haven't watched the video yet. But I believe it's ok for miners to draw nsfw art, it's completely normal and fine. But miners, as myself, shouldn't be sharing or posting that kind of stuff. If they are to post that of stuff or even share it with their friends, it shouldn't be any of the extremely suggestive art, but that's only if they post it. I think it should be kept to ourselves untill we are 18 or at least 17, old enough to really understand what we are doing.
Edit: Ok, I didn't know that sending that kind of stuff to other miners was illegal. So... Don't send any of that stuff to anyone!
exactly. As long as its not for someone else and just for exploring that sort of thing i dont see a problem with it. Minors are going to explore sexual stuff. Its a part of growing up and finding yourself. Its honestly nearly impossible to stop it from happening, and while i obviously wouldnt encourage it, i wouldn't shame someone either. its a normal part of growing up.
My comment got deleted, anyways I'm half done with the video so I guess you have a point. Btw aren't you gonna fix that 'miners'?
@@urmomeatmysoap3843 what do you mean?
As a fellow minor I agree
I mean if you don't post it i guess people won't know so you can't be judged by it
minors will draw nsfw its just a part of self-exploring, but i think they should never show this on the internet, for safety
also i reckon it's really uncomfortable for someone to be looking at nsfw art just to find out it was drawn by a 14 year old
@@cockenballtortureYEAHH DEF and as a fourteen yr old, posting nsfw would make ME feel uncomfortable, not just people viewing it
Off topic, but I love your pfp.
I’ll rather draw S.H drawings of myself
Personally, I think that people should have a mindset that is: If I am making work over my age requirement, should i really be making it?
I'm so glad that you mentioned this. It is very dangerous for minors to post or sell NSFW publicly. As a minor myself, I am very firm on my opinion that minors should keep any NSFW content to themselves! It isn't worth risking your own safety to share NSFW while underage.
As a minor myself, I absolutely agree! I have drawn NSFW privately before. I don't care as long as the artwork isn't publicly shared.
Yeah, same here
Yeah
💀💀💀💀
Same except I did once but it was a slight nsfw 🧍♂️
@@d4hiilaxew
i’m honestly glad it’s illegal for minors to share nsfw content with other minors. there was a boy in my 5th grade class who was sadly introduced to such content by his father when he was younger. when you are shown adult content when your brain is so underdeveloped, it really leaves an impact on how you think and see the world - he turned out to be a manipulative pervert who wanted to act on the things he was shown, and i was one of his targets. it’s been 6 years and i’m still suffering from some symptoms of my trauma. i didn’t even know this law existed and i think more people need to know of it in order to prevent this sneaky kind of SA between minors. it needs to be taken just as seriously as if an adult were the abuser. thanks for the information and great video
Cocsa :( I was a victim of this too
holy shit i experienced something similar in 3rd grade im so glad im not alone
I was a child who grew up with unmonitored internet access, now I'm an overly hormonal and sexual lesbian teen
I agree, it's a problem, however there is a difference between 13 year olds swapping it and 16/17 year olds. Anyone younger than 13 shouldn't be on the internet to begin with.
@@crab5862 eh i think its good to expose kids to restricted internet early in life and just get less restrictive with time if you dont their gonna do some regretable things
I’ve never drawn NSFW stuff, just not my cup of tea. I had this ‘acquaintance’ a long time ago that I met like one time so I followed them. They were way younger than me and I was pretty young at the time. They drew really explicit stuff all the time and I’m pretty certain that most of their followers were their age or younger. They ended up getting their followers to play along with them with this stuff which was gross. It was so weird.
I’ve seen people become completely desensitized to things because of what they were exposed to on the internet. Maybe I’m ‘that guy’ but the internet is a horribly dangerous place for young people
The internet is a horribly dangerous place for anyone lol.
@@RGC_animation North Korea confirmed to be the best place on the planet.
I was once a minor who drew nsfw and posted it online, but before I turned 18 I started to stay away from posting nsfw online because of all the dangers that were able to happen. I am 19 now, and I freely draw nsfw and post it. I think it is okay to draw nsfw privately and only keeping it to yourself, but posting it publically can be a problem.
Tldr: Just don’t post your art online if you are underaged, you can be a target of predat0rs.
im surprised nobody else had the canon event of drawing the worst woman you've ever seen naked and then showing it to "the boys"
i had this in middle school
it was fun :)
dont do it with anyone else tho
I never really used the term NSFW for gore, and most gore/horror artist just use gore/horror me included, but anyways more people should actually talk about this subject more, because it could actually help and save minors from being targeted by creeps, i also wish people can explain why minors should not lie about their age just to get into 18+ spaces because it can damage both the minors and the creators.
For example, i have a 16+ space that has content that isn't suited for the mental age of anyone below it, it's not nsfw "in that way", but it does tackle on heavy topics relating to teen/adult lives such as mental health and other worldly problems such as dark themes or a slice of life from reality, in other words a psychological horror that stems from the human mind within reality and fiction.
I am interested in that content! What place is it?
Well that's dumb. "16+" doesnt promise that those 16 year olds are going to understand it any better than a 13 year old.
@@crab5862This was over a year ago, that space i made is now 18+ because the content i make now is really dark and realistic and isn't suited for those under 18+ now.
Those who are 16+ understand mental health they can experience because it part of reality and part of life, so saying this is sorta dumb? Because my work is mostly psychological that dives into the human mind, and how we experience thing's in different ways from all ages.
Again idk why you even stated something like this honestly, cause i never stated they had to understand it, i stated that the content i made at that time was mostly suited to that age range.
I prefer the term NSFL (not safe for life) for gore
I say that it’s fine for TEENAGERS to draw NSFW content since they’re around that age where they might want to, but commissions from ADULTS is disgusting.
RIGHT! And they can share it around with other peers doing the same. Yet if they lie about their age and or never post it and adults come around, they need to come to clean right away and apologize to the adult..if they realize an adult reached out to commission or fav/followed them.
they rlly shouldnt share it bcz of yk.....creeps @@QUEENOBSCURE
i post and talk ab it all the time
but bc im *just barely* not there yet i dont do ANY commissions other then DRAGONS.
bc dragons are COOL. 😎

As a minor who struggles with being hypersexual (weird I know, I think it’s my brain trying to cope with trauma) drawing stuff like that genuinely helps me get out those thoughts without having to deal with long term problems, but I don’t share it at all.
Tell someone it could get bad :(
In the country that I live in, sending nsfw to a minor no matter your age, will put you on a system of s*x offenders, if it was explicit content of a child, it is permanent. Therefore you are consider a child seggs offender and are not allowed to leave the country. Any sort of nsfw sent to someone without consent puts you on the system for 5-10 years depending on the severity.
In my own opinion, I don’t think that minors creating nsfw is bad. It’s a good experience to explore yourself and your hormones, and nsfw art can be beautiful especially if it’s not looked at in an erotic way. However, until you are 18 I don’t think these artworks should be shared due to the safety of yourself and in order to prevent blackmailing and stuff. Even if it is a minor sending to another minor, you do not want a permanent record on yourself, especially in the coming age since I am guessing things like that will become a bigger and bigger deal ( since a lot of the people who think it’s not will slowly fall out of power due to age)
what country do you live in?
Bro putting minors on watchlist for liking minors is kinda stupid lol
It'll teach their dumbasses to not play with adult topics
@@marseillejoh ikr
@@marseillejoh a minor can be 17 and a minor can be 13, that is ok? or 15 and 12...
Just hearing the initial view point, I can agree I definitely did a couple light nsfw art at like 16-17. Shared it with a couple friends but otherwise didn't share it with the public which is probably safer for a minor anyway.
Same here!
I'll be honest I posted NSFW art when I was 17 and I really don't think it's safe for minors to post any type of sexual content but god. please don't harass or "cancel" a child for posting this type of content. its hard to change someones mind, so please, if you're a minor making this type of content, just be safe.
It's kinda gross for a kid to be posting and drawing that kinda thing so it's completely on them if they get bullied for it
@@leavingtogetthemilkbrb5772 They're children, dude.. They don't know any better. It's not their fault for that very reason.
@@leavingtogetthemilkbrb5772 First of all, why is it supposedly disgusting? Second, why should anyone be bullied for drawing NSFW?
Children or not most are old enough to understand what they're doing
You can't use the "they're children" argument. If they want to dabble in such adult topics then adult feedback is what they'll get.
So I'm 27 and have only commissioned NSFW stuff for close online friends of their OCs that they wanted to keep for themselves and not share, and that was only once I'd started streaming in 2020
I never really felt comfortable creating any risky work, I love seeing people's creativity with that kind of work but I feel like I probably would have fallen into the trap as a teen of those kind of commissions if i had played around with that side of stuff but luckily I steered clear of it
I think another good note is that insulting minors for drawing it privately, is that it might make them feel ashamed for having these hormonal thoughts and for having this stage of puberty at 13 to even 17, when it’s normal.
I very much agree
i had puberty since 9 not only those ages dawg
@@DoritoSwag66 puberty can occur from 8-18
I always thought I was weird asf
@@Captaincheesestick Same 😭
I think it's fine as long as they don't post it because that could give predators a way to start grooming them. I'm asexual so I was never really interested in creating nsfw art but my friends (same age as me, so back then like 14-16) would draw it quite often. And not that we can really police what people draw in private, I think most teenagers who are curious about their sexuality and draw will end up drawing something nsfw. It's okay. I think it's even okay to show other people, like my friends showed each other and even me when I asked. Kids can't groom each other, so in my opinion it's okay, but they shouldn't post it anywhere I think.
EDIT ok I didn't know that in the US minors can't send each other nsfw content. I'm not sure what the laws are in my country, either way by "showing it to each other" I meant that we just got together between lessons at school and talked about art and showed our sketchbooks to each other
EDIT 2: when I say kids can't groom each other, I mean same age teenagers, not someone who is 16 showing nsfw to someone who is 10
Also I was asked to draw a suggestive artwork for someone online literally right after I mentioned I was an artist. They knew I was 15 at the time, which is the age of consent in my country, but that's only stating that people older than 15 and younger than 18 can legally have sex with each other, not a 15 year old with a full adult. I think predators will try to groom kids no matter if they post nsfw or not, just because of this experience, but I still think that just to be safe they shouldn't post it online
well i was a SMART KID and didnt talk to strangers that way
most of what i did was something called "a bit"
(a joke or ongoing gag that is funny)
so mine was more like 🥺🥺👈👉👈👉 kissy? 🥺🥺🥺
yep i was a WEIRD kid
thankfully everyone i knew at the time played along with the bit bc we were friends :)
I think minors drawing NSFW is okay, but posting generally shouldn't be done. This is coming from a minor. Why do I think this? When I was 11-13(it lasted quite a while, A full two years) I had discord, and I made some friends on it. Those "friends" started convincing me into nsfw rps and such while I was still only 11. I knew nothing about sex, but after those two years, I think I probably know more than the average person does. Anyway, that's besides the point. These "friends" frequently pressured me into drawing and posting nsfw art, which I did because of the threats they made to me if I didn't. Now I tell myself there was nothing wrong with me drawing the art because that's how I keep myself from feeling ashamed and disgusted for doing it. I feel bad for posting it all the time, but it can't be undone. People have already seen it. (The posts are deleted now, tho).
So I say, yes! Draw NSFW art at any age. As long as that's what *you* want to do and you're comfortable with it! I'd again just say, avoid posting it.
EDIT: These "friends" were full grown adults
you a victim. don't be ashamed.
As a minor, this is the type of stuff you should keep to yourself or something like that, posting it online is just dumb 💀
As a 15 year old, I’m not gonna act anything to this

I'll share my own experiences, I started drawing NSFW art at the age of 13 , However, I never posted it anywhere, I just started posting my NSFW art when I turned 18, and thanks to that, I never got any disgusting experiences.
My opinion is, yes, a minor can create and consume adult material as long as is PRIVATELY, it's part of growing up, they'll learn one way of another and if they can explore their sexuality on a safe way. I'm all for it, HOWEVER, I'm strictly against a minor sharing that type of content, as much as the modern internet try, the internet was and never will a safe place, and by sharing their NSFW art you're exposed to some extreme danger.
The NSFW/R34 fandom has this stigma that most of the people there are creeps, and sadly, is true (even though it's a tiny part of the whole fandom , is still really prominent) and like you said, once they find out you're a minor sharing this kind of content, they'll think you're okay with this and try to get into you.
I don't care how "mature" you're for your age, you're still a child, you don't have enough experience, and you don't want to risk your own safety just because you think you're "mature enough" to go deeper, children got HURT without even getting closer to NSFW material, getting into those water will only increase that risk, please just do it in private, it's not worth it.
I have a question. Is it okay to draw those things if you're 11 years old?

@@FLINT0NNN I think it's fine, but if you really want to share it online, be careful with DMs and don't interact with suspicious people and don't answer to suggestive questions. Like, for now don't take commissions, wait for a little more, ok? I know some people at your age want to make their artwork public, but because it's nsfw related content, you should be extremely careful and make sure it doesn't anyhow relate to your real personal life, don't share any sensitive data about you through these accounts.
@@thebestnickname thanks! Also I don't want to share it online, I do like to draw it personally as I think its beautiful is some way maybe it can be the curvy like poses
Im 15 and i've drawn nsfw before and I fully agree. I would never think of posting those things. I think nsfw is great for self exploration and figuring things out (and i have to say it's helped me improve at anatomy too) but it could very well be unsafe to share those things online for many reasons, from creeps to digital footprint.
Another disturbing thing is the "minors see nsfw all the time" point that i think the comment was also trying to bring up. I had an irl friend (who was also underage at that time) try to justify why showing nsfw to minors is completely normal (whether the minor intentionally seeks it out or just accidentally came across it). It was during lunch when we were talking about shows n stuff. Then they suddenly suggested that we watched a video bc they can't post it in our discord server bc it was nsfw. The other friend we were with was clearly disgusted and I said "[their name here], we're minors". It spiraled into a whole situation where they and my other friend tried to convince them that sending nsfw to a bunch of 15 yr olds was messed up. The situation thankfully has been resolved by now and we went our separate ways. Oh, and to add more salt to the wound, apparently the friend who tried to show us nsfw said they were influenced by someone older than them who was a MAP and their ex friend. So yikes... seriously people should stop normalizing minors being in adult spaces on the internet smh
but how else are we going to know who is a gross person if the children do not lie about their age and put suggestive drawings on sites ?
dont call pedos maps
wait my mom legit slammed a "WOW! ten facts about PERIODS" book.
yep that book humbled me FAST.
the funny part is it wasnt my book it was my sisters
my mom just looked at me and shrugged
As a new Mom this video is fantastic and insightful. I have never even thought about minors drawing nsfw content, sharing it, or what the implications and consequences are for engaging in that behavior. I agree with your video, this information about what is legal and what isn't is often not told to minors at all and they aren't really thinking about the legality when they post their beautiful art they worked hard on and want to share. As a parent this video has added a whole new subsection of "the talk" that I will have with my children as they get older and enter these spaces.
So thankful I stumbled on this gem of a video and your channel as a whole. Keep up the fantastic content, you are very well spoken and a great artist. I think your channel is going to be very successful.
how old are u? :o
also please make sure to teach them the danger of talking to people 3 years older than you when you're still a minor. they're manipulative. my life was ruined because of these things, especially nsfw content at the age of 11. keep your children as safe as possible, it's not wrong to restrict your children to a degree. it's life saving 🙏🏽
@@cupidknives there was a 17 year old I knew form chickensmoothie who was dating and adult roleplaying with a 13 year old. and I was the gross bad guy for trying to break them up and tell the older one to stop rp'ing and sharing smut.

Based on the way you word yourself, I highly doubt you would ever be the type of parent to do this, but just a tiny bit of advice: Should you ever happen to catch your kid drawing things that are age-inappropriate and feel the need to confront them over it, REMAIN CALM AND DO NOT TURN IT INTO A DUMPSTERFIRE.
This is coming from someone who was lowkey traumatized by my mom screaming at the top of her lungs for about 10-20 minutes straight and going out of her way to make me feel like a monster at, like, 8 years old all because she found one drawing of a character holding a gun in one hand and a bottle of beer in the other. (Thankfully she chilled tf out in later instances of me getting caught drawing something questionable, but the damage was definitely done.)
@@EagleTimberWolf I'm so sorry to hear that happened to you! :<
I'm very supportive of art, whether it contains questionable content or not. Art is a skill that is honed through trial, error, and lots of practice. The talk would essentially amount to what is appropriate to share with others, especially as a minor, and especially online. But I would love to put any art my kid draws on my fridge regardless of content lol. 😅
Teens should explore adult topics, including nsfw subjects, it's one of the ways they learn to become adults. When I was young there wasn't a way to share it so openly, or with so many people. We could only share things with one or two close friends, and that was fine; normal. So no, I don't think you should share your explorations with just anyone. Choose, and choose wisely.
@@Mika_Kagehira. We dont need a bunch of 18YOs running around who are suddenly free, but totally ignorant. That sounds like a total nightmare.
You did, when you said they need to wait until they're 18 to explore.
@@Mika_Kagehira.that’s too long I started at 6 and this is the first actual thing I would normalize
@@Mika_Kagehira.bro now you are going to far minors should explore adult content to know what it means not relationships with adults
As a gacha creator, I am familiar with the term “Gacha heat”. Pretty much NSFW content and art made from gacha. I had a phase where I would make stuff like that, but I never EVER posted it. I have also written smut and I share it with a few of my friends (they kinda like reading smut) and there’s nothing negative said about it. I certainly believe that if any creators want to make NSFW content, they should keep it to themselves. Especially in the Gacha community. NSFW content is hurting the community and the people in it.
Just keep it to yourself. :)

While not really posting any nsfw art in particular publicly, as a REALLY young kid I was exposed to NSFW very often and that caused me to become extremely hypersexual in my later years when I hit puberty. This led to me getting groomed several times in the past....I know it isn't my fault but to this day I still think I should have done something differently....
I got influence by minors drawing nsfw so I did the same thing.
At that time I was only 14, drawing nsfw and then posting to nsfw site that I shouldn't be doing.
After I turned 15 everyone find out I draw nsfw and they started bullying me and s3xu@lly harass me until everything cooled down.
Now I"m 17 turning 18 soon minors shouldn't posted it on public otherwise they get themselves into trouble or even worse, as long they are keeping to themselves.
If you're an adult, you should not encourage minors to draw nsfw. If you're a minor, what the fuck is gonna stop you?
I feel like drawing naked people is very good to understand anatomy. Mainly if you’re learning art. Idk about a kid drawing sex if they’re under the age of like 17 😭
i dont think its weird bcz yk...puberty,but it shouldnt be posted online
@@vampyrtzz yh, I think it’d absolutely fine for them to draw it (who am I to judge?) but it shouldn’t and NEVER should be posted until the age of 18.
My Personal Take on the claim :
If you are a minor (under 18) and draw NSFW / R34 I could slightly be ok. If your drawing it for self pleasure as in ONLY for yourself , then it’s ok. Do not post this artwork anywhere , however , since you are still a minor and might get asked explicit or potential NSFW questions. It is in human nature to r3produce , and it’s completely normal for minors around age 14-16 to feel hormones at the age to draw stuff like this. But as i said before , i recommend not posting nsfw or trying to actually do the things your portray in your artwork.
I would draw some nsfw when I was a minor, and I felt a little weird /gross while doing it because I thought I shouldn’t be doing it, and that I would get in trouble with laws. So even though now I’m an adult, it still makes me feel better about it. (Even though I didn’t even really draw it too often either, simply because I hardly knew what to go for LMAO)
I’ve actually seen a bit of discourse on wether people are weird for drawing/looking at nsfw art regardless of their ages. I believe that it’s normal and alright to draw it, (with keeping in mind that minors should be careful, and keep it to themselves!) and as long it isn’t of a kid or animal
wow. yeah i had none of those feelings
it was: ooh whats this?
mom: a naked woman....? whyre you looking at it. stop.
me: *draws comic about naked women*
i was a weird kid
PREACH
In my opinion minors just shouldn't share it until they're 18 to prevent any creeps getting close to them. Also if I'm not wrong sending nsfw things to a minor is actually illegal in some countries, like o can't remember the name of the charge itself but it was something akin to " tainting the minor" or SMT like that
Im a minor, I draw NSFW art, I keep it to myself, I’m not hurting anyone
As a minor, I do sometimes draw suggestive art. I don’t post, share, or even mention that I’ve drawn this kind of stuff because 1) I don’t want people to try and groom me lmao and 2) I don’t want to be judged.
Anyways, that’s my short take on this lol
I'm a minor The most inappropriate things i draw is short crop tops and short shorts
id say that minors can draw NSFW , if thats how you somehow learn human anatomy , but i woulnt reccomend them posting it online , OR doing nsfw commisions unless theyre almost 18 .
for any of yall minors doing commisions , if someone OVER the age of 18 asks you to do an nsfw commision , leave them alone , theyre odd… very odd…
tbh im actually surprised that someone like you could be this underrated, this is probably the only commentary video that I actually watched through and enjoyed! I love your perspective on stuff and that you dont bring anyone down for their interests. im happy to see you grow in the future!
I'm so happy that this video exists now I feel less guilty about my more "suggestive" drawings
I'm really glad someone talked about this topic, it had always been confusing for me since no one gave me a clear answer because everyone's answer would change or be different
I remember drawing NSFW for the first time and felt so disgusted of myself since I still had not known that it wasn't illegal.
so thanks for making this video, it clears up a lot of things lol
12:49 reiterating this point, there might not be any immediate dangers but, like a frog in a boiling pot, it can often be too late when the realization hits.
me personally, if a minor is just drawing nsfw for their own personal reasons and they dont post it online and they aren’t being forced by an adult or even other minors, then i think it’s up to them really.
I would like to thank you on how you discuss things. Some people just say, BeCauSE, or, nO YOuR wROng f U! But you are very respectful and give logic which I find both polite, AND interesting to listen to. So thank you.
I love the art and I agree with the points you made in the video. Keep up the good work and have a nice day/night!
i appreciate this video a lot!! i've always been unsure about all the laws and whatnot surrounding minors making nsfw content (as a hormonal teenager) and this video helped me understand a bit better and heck- even made me feel more comfortable with myself and some of the things i draw/write.
and on the note of sharing the artwork- i do recall someone asking me to draw something explicit for them when i was like 12 and even then i was like "haha, absolutely not my guy" still glad i didn't listen xp
I have started drawing stuff (nsfw) since 8, (I’m still a minor) and I have many intrusive thoughts and weird thoughts of stuff of that nature. I was exposed to nfsw stuff in early stages and I thought there was nothing wrong with it back then. This video has educated me to broader perspectives of things to the topic. I was introduced to nfsw by the internet and some topics spoke to me by my older siblings, (their age gaps between me are 4 and 6) in my opinion, unfiltered comments by people anywhere can effect minds of younger people. They can make you think things and make you feel like your suddenly “more mature” for being exposed to things like these.
I'm an adult and I still find lewd art disgusting. It's always a perverted weeb bordering pedophile drawing an anime character that looks underage.
my man! 🥳
Especially in your teenage years this can become a habit in artistry, wether it’s puberty thoughts and the like (iykwim) or just for practice. Just as long as it is not posted or sent to platforms friendly for children it’s perfectly fine imo.
when i was 12 a 17 year old asked me to draw one of my favorite characters in a bunny suit in the weirdest pose..even though the character was 18 i was not. he was lowkey weird……..
Completely offtopic but your lineart is sooo good gosh, i caught myself just staring at how you line without listening ":)
Same
the artwork in the back is so pretty!
i see big improvement everytime u drawwww!!!
The captions changing minors to miners is so funny to me 😭
As a writer, when I was 12, I partly wrote NSFW fanfiction and gave it to my friend to put in their discord bio. That was a horrible idea, I am very glad that I didn't finish it. However, I do write NSFW, but not on a computer. I have seen MANY NSFW writers that were admitting to be a minor and providing such content, Now, It's fine they write it, but not okay that they post it. I 100% agree ,, for writers as well.
I was a minor when I posted my first fanfic. It’s privated now because wtf was I thinking 😭
I am a minor,I’m glad I saw this.I used to see this as okay but at least now i see the dangers,while i don’t posy any of my art in the first place as well as never talk to people on discord or so that i don’t know in real like (at least don’t become close until they’ve shown me a valid face that you cant reverse image search which even then i don’t do face ) its little things like these that make me happy i find videos on youtube. It always helps to be safe
You can't control what minors draw but you can control what they post and parents are the first line to prevent that to stop issues, such as limiting the art sites that can be visited. Also I personally would be more concerned seeing a under 16 y/o post even heavily suggestive content compared to a 16-17 y/o who is probably experiencing adult-like consequences for the first time, but I personally think in that case it's best to not visit Rule 34 at all until 18 and be limited to sites that don't allow Rule 34 even if those sites allow other mature content. Sincerely, an adult who drew and publicly posted some uncensored non-sexual nudity as teenager.
As a minor, I completely agree with you. Although I have never posted NSFW art online, I often see or hear about minors being shamed for drawing it. Sadly, a lot of people don't seem to understand that minors are developing and figuring themselves out, this typically means that their hormones will make them have certain thoughts that they want to express. While this is fine and completely normal, I simply do not think that they should be sharing it with anyone besides people who are safe to discuss it with.
In conclusion, I believe that hormonal changes and sexual feelings are totally normal, I just think that the internet is too dangerous and judgemental for minors like myself to post NSFW art.
As someone who drew "adult content" before I turned 18 and never really shared it because yeah no, knowing I'm gonna be 19 in 2 months, seeing a minor sharing and making "adult content" to the public is extremely dangerous because that will attract creeps and a certain group of people who are into kids that will take advantage of them and can cause trauma later in life
you will never stop minors who want to share nsfw from doing it. I think it's very risky for them because this has a high chance to draw in the wrong people but there will always be some who have to learn the hard way. who'll watch a video like this and say "I can handle it" or "it won't happen to me".
my take (as a minor) is that we should be allowed to draw nsfw art, as long as we don't post it. I've been thinkimg about drawing stuff like that, but since I'm a minor and because Ik most people in nsfw spaces are adults, I'm not very comfortable sharing that stuff online (based on the comments i see we all generally have the same take so that's good to know)
As a minor, I’m glad I watched this video.
you are literally my favorite youtube-artist to listen to when I draw:)) Its calming and I feel like drawing too, so its a win win!! thank u
I agree with the points in this video so much, I'm a young artist and though I don't draw NSFW art, I do know some people do that, my classmate for example had some NSFW drawn in their sketchbook, small doodles, and I just kept quiet and didn't care cause they were likely just for anatomy or for experimenting and definetly not to distribute.
As someone who does post 18+ NSFW art online, I personally am incredibly uncomfortable with minors posting/interacting with NSFW art publicly. I won’t interact with anyone who doesn’t have their age in their bio, and will actively block anyone under 18 if they interact with the art I post.
I started drawing such art in elementary school and haven't looked back since. It has great evocative potential, and has always worked for me as a way of exploring intense feelings for myself. I got into it far before I'd even learn how immature people - especially adults, could even be about it, and have never had any qualms about sharing that stuff for those who want to see it. I can tell that it always has a strong impact on people regardless of it's context, and it's great to see that transformative power in action. I've had many a flustered people come out of their shells to express their shy wishes or repressed thoughts out loud just from seeing such works. That is something unique which never fails to inspire me to draw.
Being an oldf@#ck ancient internet lurker and a parent of boys and girls I have this to say:
My kids can draw or create whatever they like. Today kids spend so much empty and pointless screen-time (games/vids) so any creative activity is a blessing. If any of my kids would be able to draw anything better then two circles with points in the center and a triangle "down there" I would be happy.
Regarding sharing - social media is bad for kids and should be avoided at all costs. The best way is to keep the kids busy all the time with sport and intellectual activities. That is very hard, so kids drawing TTs and Ds is not even a problem.
Sounds mostly like outrage of childless people. Which happens too much on the internets anyways.
oh nah its illegal to send that to other minors? my group chat is done for 💀
same
when the girls gc get leaked😰😰!
Me and my friends sending each other ambatukam memes 💀

ahhhhh shit.... digital footprint...
When I was 11 I had this friend (he was 17 at the time, I didn’t know that. He just told me he was a minor) He complained to me about how minors should be able to draw and post nsfw. He convinced me to erp with him and draw nsfw of his characters, even when he turned 18. He didnt know that I was 11 but he did know I was a minor 🧍🏽♀️
God, that's so gross. I'm sorry you had to experience that. 😔
That’s so disgusting. I’m so sorry that happened to you.
I mean he was right that he was a minor, so you were both children
if he was a minor and knew you were a minor but didnt know your exact age then i feel like he shouldn't be faulted too hard for that
@@kaiyodei"even when he turned 18"
and anyways, do you think its normal for children to draw fucking nsfw?
I’m really glad you made this video because I’ve seen way too many minors getting harassed by ADULTS because they draw nsfw art like are you series you aren’t helping… (kwives who was like 14 and hotelweed who I’m 100% was far too old to have so many people go harass them.
5:25 it is illegal to cause another physical pain, even with consent, at least in the usa. “as long as nobody is being mentally harmed long-term, i think that those interests are valid” would be a more concise way to word your point
New favorite art youtuber my mom is incredibly supportive and you remind me of the conversation me and my mom had about it the rule was as long as you don't take action irl, don't hurt others, and if i post it it has to be on a back up acc that doesn't show my face age or location ❤😊
When I was drawing, my classmate asked me to draw a “sexy woman”😭😭😭😭💀💀💀💀
He then told me to turn her into an OF streamer😨😨😨😨😨😨
I’m 10…
Finally someone who thinks its ok for minors to draw no no. I do that but I never post it and never plan on doing so until im 18 or older. I dont think minors should be shamed for that kind of stuff, its better than them going out and doing the real thing 😭.
As someone who did this as a minor, I want to say that while it’s common for minors to do this, sharing them or posting them, especially publicly, should be highly discouraged due to potential dangers and risks of becoming a target for predators. Please keep yourself safe by not doing things like that and stay away from NSFW. Some people might post them into rule34 sites without your permission, as I have learned it myself as it happened to me even though I’m an adult.
People should talk more about how NSFW doesn’t always mean sexual themes and especially *why it’s not okay to lie about your age to get into 18+ spaces.* It can not only harm you mentally or psychologically, but it can also legally and financially harm the people making the art and possibly the people running the site, even if you support the artist.
Thank you! I love how you talked about this, and here's my opinion (as a minor). I suck at explaining, so its going to be kind of short and badly worded.
I think minors should be able to draw NSFW (and this could mean anything under the umbrella besides illegal stuff), but they shouldn't be able to post or sell it. I think also creating (for example;) discord servers where minors distribute NSFW drawings (that are under the P* umbrella) should not be allowed.
In short; I think it is okay for a small group of friends (2-3) to share personally drawn NSFW (anything under the umbrella that is not illegal) with everyone's consent of receiving and sending (and not for any ill intentions when getting this art, purely for artistic reasons). If you are a *ADULT* sending minors this stuff, then that is 100% illegal and I hope you get the fullest punishment of the law.
is that the bite of 87

though i agree with the "besides illegal stuff" thing to some extent (a 17 year old drawing 12 years aint a-ok) a 14 year old drawing characters that look 14 in nsfw environments is fairly justifiable (though it definitely should not be shared with anyone ever)
It is recommended to be 18+ to produce, distribute, or consume NSFW art, because they are graphic. Adults are braver than minors and therefore are recommended to view 18+ material. Same goes for graphic gore. Alot of sites don’t allow minors to post 18+ content, not because they think it’s pedophilic to do so, but more probably, it is to prevent grooming. People wanted to date me on Twitter, but I am a minor, so I made a post like “Please report this pedophile”. This probably occurs because you like NSFW art or follow NSFW accounts as a minor. This is exactly why you should never share NSFW art, post that you like NSFW art, or follow NSFW accounts as a minor.
I’m sixteen and in an anatomy class. I’ve drawn NSFW art, but only to learn about the placement of realistic features on people when I draw
I wish I knew this when I was a minor... it's sad how I was talked down to all my childhood by my mom, because of my brother, etc. for drawing that in private. I am older now and I always looked back and felt guilty for it (because of many reasons that I'm not discussing here) still today I go through it and feel bad about it as an adult. I appreciate and thank my friends every day for comforting me and reminding me of being positive. I sometimes draw nsfw to help me "grow up" ig. Ik, weird w/e. But it helped me a little bit to escape my shell because sadly as an adult although, (only 18). I can't cuss or say any "adult-like" language without feeling this storm of guilt rush before me. I posted some on appropriate websites recently to share with some friends. And it has been removed because I am just not ready as I thought I was for that to be shared. I want to just keep it private from now on.
My take on it is aslong as its not posted, there should be no problem with it. Its understandable due to hormones, puberty, ect to be curious about those sorts of things, but if its posted or talked about publicly it could have them targeted by creeps. But aslong as its not posted, i dont see any issue with it! ◝(*'◡'*)◜
thank you for making a video about this, like genuinely,,
i've been in situations like this before, and it's definitely something you don't realise is going on till afterwards, so i think that talking about this stuff is extremely important
i actually just send this to afew friends younger than me, because ik that they have interests in drawing nsfw stuff, and this is basically what i tell them, but you've just explained it like four times better, so thank you
I draw nsfw sometimes cause it helps me when trying to make more realistic bodies. Even when im above 18 i dont think I'll post nsfw. Drawing nsfw helps me get better around that area.
You spoke so well on this topic. I’ve had experiences with this, though I don’t draw nsfw art (only really drawing art that hints at it) I’ve had creepy adults befriend me to later confess their feelings to me (a minor). I would even go as far to say to not even speak in private with someone older than you as it could lead do something bad, despite how nice and friendly they seem.
I legit saw someone on instagram post very explicit drawings and state they're 14 and have "18+ ONLY" on their bio in the same breath
I just took a moment to laugh
As a minor myself (16), i think it should be ok to make and post nsfw as long as they dont use themselves as a template, or represent a minor in their art.
everything fine as long as it isn't of animals or anything like that
I literally should’ve never been posting it at 13, i’m 15 now and almost 16 I wish I could’ve warned little 13 year old me that posting it would’ve been the start of a drawing addiction and unwanted attention from adult men😭
*SPECIFICALLY MY OPINION* I think it's ok for minors to look at NSFW (specifically fanart), and draw NSFW. I think they shouldn't post their NSFW because I've met people who want to meet + (naughtiness) the artists because they have the same interests. It's unsafe to publicly attach themselves to NSFW in general, however if they want I will warn, but not fight or stop them.
I really respect how your perspective is, also loved the end product of your art ^^✨
*New sub*
*Should minors be ABLE to draw NSFW?* There's nothing stopping them, so whether they should be able to has no effect on the fact that they can. Can't really stop it.
*Should minors POST NSFW art, or allude to their NSFW art?* Absolutely not.
*Should minors fulfill NSFW commissions, or make NSFW commissions?* Absolutely not.
Nobody can stop a 15 year old from drawing nsfw artwork of their favorite characters, but they can discourage it from making it to the public eye until the artist themselves is old enough to intake that artwork themselves. I'm personally firmly against minors drawing NSFW artwork in general, but it's completely natural for them to want to, and there's nothing I can do to stop them from creating what they want to create. All I can do is advise against it (especially if it becomes the focal point of their portfolio) due to the sexual nature, and the very real threat of both porn addiction and possibly desensitization to overtly sexual themes, situations, etc.
It also pigeonholes artists nowadays anyway, so I don't even think it's a worthy venture for most adults anymore. Can't tell you how many SFW accounts I've seen dip a pinky into the NSFW pond, and get dragged in until that's all anybody follows them for. Becomes very apparent that if they stop posting that type of content or selling that type of content, they will see a big hit to not only their fanbase but also to their actual literal finances as well.
I started drawing NSFW drawing a lot when I was a minor, but I didn’t started posting them until my 18th birthday! 😅😅
the new sprites look great!
I, as an art school student where many minors draw nsfw as projects or just freely, think it’s alright for some times, but they shouldn’t post it or do nsfw commissions
I'm lucky in that I never got into NSFW content in my youth (or now lol I'm very ace) but I did have an era in late middle early high school where I was both desensitized to gore but also aspects of child grooming (I was watching a lot of animes at the time where typically adult male characters would openly flirt with elementary school-aged protagonists/said protags would sexually harass each other in the style of "young lass is pervy old man" jokes. It skewed my perceptions of what was appropriate content/behavior for my age a good while, so I can fully understand kids that age who feel attraction needing to tread carefully. My phase was at least safe from me accidentally breaking the law.
Hormones is a thing I can't stop them and I'm not their parents. Will politely tell them they be at risk from creepy adults. I think it's worse when they are not obvious and minors have no clue what they have done. I'm an adult I feel uncomfortable when they are too young to post NSFW stuff when they are a kid.
From a minor themselves I Personally I think its fine for minors to draw it. Nothing is stopping them + it's normal but just share it privately only with people close to your age and don't do it publicly where everyone of all ages can see it
