Are there any good examples of product that maintains popularity within youth / teen markets while enabling monetisation of adult content?

It seems near an impossibility.

From a product perspective it would be possible, tho it’d be playing with fire. Very different when young people see adult content and you ban it vs they see the adult content you condone but you didn’t intend them to reach. (And they will try to).

But from the perception perspective, even harder. When adults (some parents) see snap as an adult entertainment product, they are not going to want kids using it. Even if there’s some suitable product barrier between the audiences.

I have kids and I fully agree with your analysis. You do not want a 10 year old to be exposed to pornographic content.

Kids are going to be exposed anyway but better to have exposure at a time where theyhave the maturity to handle it.

Education takes time and is hard. It is very nice as parent to know that my kids have some relatively safe social apps.

The status quo is girls (or their marketing teams), randomly "quick add" profiles, exposing minors to their teases and adult content.

You're pretty much guaranteed to see unsolicited prn in sc these days. Just create a fresh account and wait for the random friend requests.

The Internet.

Printed media.

I was thinking more specifically than those.

But to your point, google, ddg & reddit are examples that enable both adult and non-adult content to co-exist.

Reddit being a better example of a product that’s targeted to a younger demographic, tho far from exclusively.
