I live in Jeju, South Korea. There's a local development bubble that's going to pop, centered around a boondoggle called the Global Education City.
Yeah... People lose their goddamn minds over minors and sex, like they were never minors themselves 🙄😮💨
I got banned for the telling a teenage OP in /r/sex that her yeast infection was probably caused by her boyfriend's dirty fingers. I told her to emphasize cleanliness and hygiene ahead of future encounters. She said she couldn't ask her parents for sexual advice and also couldn't consult a doctor, so I tried to give her immediately useful advice
I was banned for "encouraging sex acts with a minor" but not before a bunch of people called me rude names for "imagining her sexual encounter with her boyfriend"

Great reference!
