Agreed!!!  If something has explicit sexual content, you should, at the very
least have a age verification page.  (click only if over 18, or whatever.
It's not much but better than nothing.)

Wait a minute!  Kissing is (or often is) sexual.  When twelve year olds hold
hands at the mall, that's sexual too.  Sexual describes a huge range of
behaviors, the vast majority of which are healthy.

Why should age verification take place?

Read that again,   "explicit sexual content"  Explicit;  that means clearly
defined.  In this case the sexual act itself which is what we are discussing.
Age verification has become somewhat standardized across the internet.
(some of it by law, some voluntary)  If it has content that has been
objected to by the majority, and one should have the intelligence to know
what that is, there is a responsibility to notify viewers of said content.
