@Squashedquatch Fair enough.
I think we can both agree that 1x1 RPs are more personal than group RPs. Especially if they are being run in PMs and will only ever be seen by the two people participating in them. Mix in some anonymity and you can probably understand why.
Regardless, safe for work 1x1 RPs do exist. If you look at the actual 1x1 section where the RPs are being run you can see that there are quite a few RPS with non-erotic elements. I also would not presume to assume every 18+ rp is erotic in nature. Some people just enjoy dark themes, violence, or do not feel comfortable writing with teenagers/children.
Just make your interest check and specify that you won't write erotic scenes or wish to "fade to black." It will take a few tries to get someone you feel comfortable writing with, but that's 1x1 rps in a nutshell. I assure you not everyone is a super kinky mo-fo.
I agree.
I guess in conclusion, everyone is a bit of a strong word, it's just that when I think of 18+, XXX comes to mind before anything else. There are PG-13 and MA movies, animes, and TV shows that discuss things like violence, depression, or suicide, but only 18+ and maybe R rated (movies, animes, and tv shows) can really be counted on to have some kind of sex thing going on.
