The underage kid is using chaturbate to talk to live models, but of course people are hating the mom for being a lazy Karen.

Can you imagine the roasting this poor kid gets at school because of his insane mom?
This was literally the first thing I thought when I read the headline.
Nelson (from Simpsons): "Ha ha!"
Seriously, who wants to bet this kid ends up disowning her, or ending himself as a result. The bullying would be fucking insane for that. National news over porn.
I get the mom's point that she is worried for his safet but like, that's way too extreme, lol. Teens are eventually gonna be curious about it and learn about sex. There's nothing wrong with fancying the opposite gender and masturbation as long as the teen doesn't let the whole thing control his mind thus affecting his daily life if that makes any sense.
It's that second part that becomes an issue. The whole point of childhood is that you're not fully responsible for your own decisions. And the internet is very weird and bad about sex. Perhaps even moreso than it is weird and bad about everything else.
Nothing to do with safety, she wants a payout
Note that under the Kansas bill, it appears that depictions of homosexuality qualify as also needing to be locked behind an age gate. Like, not "homosexual sex", but homosexuality.
Don’t look, kids! According to Kansas lawmakers, this is pornography.
Images and text depicting gay affection could be swept up by age-verification bill

Take a good look at the photo just above these words. You should see two men exchanging rings at a same-sex marriage ceremony.
You’re also seeing, according to the Kansas Legislature, the kind of pornographic content that should be walled off from those under age 18 with age-verification software. That was the consequence — intended or not — of passing Senate Bill 394. All 40 state senators voted for the legislation, including 11 Democrats. In the House, nine Democrats joined Republicans to pass the bill, 92-31.
Max Kautsch, a Lawrence media lawyer, outlined some of the problems.
“The online age-verification bill expressly incorporates the definition of ‘harmful to minors’ that already exists in Kansas statutes, a phrase defined to mean ‘any description, exhibition, presentation or representation, in whatever form, of … acts of … homosexuality,’ ” he told me. “The term ‘homosexuality’ is undefined in the law, but it could include a wide swath of conduct between two persons of the same sex, including kissing, hand-holding, and other activities that would be considered ‘public displays of affection.’ ”
A couple of gentlemen exchanging rings, as shown above, would certainly qualify.
I encourage everyone to study the actual bill. From my perspective, it not only invokes a double standard against the brave Kansas LGBGTQ+ community but actively seeks to chill free expression. The proposed law applies to “any commercial entity” that shares content online, which means it could sweep up individuals trying to make money from a travel blog or small businesses that take wedding photos of same-sex couples. (As a nonprofit, Kansas Reflector appears exempt, which comes as a relief given my columns.)
Get this smut off my Lemmy page.
I think that this is okay, because this lemmy instance isn't a commercial operation.
I guess that places like PinkNews and similar commercial media outlets might be open to lawsuits, though.
So parental responsibility now consists of suing for perceived damages of... ???
jacking off?
fuck's sake. you don't think they'll pass a law against THAT do you?
A settlement of $100 for the extra laundry detergent over the next few years...
This is a test case. There are some deep Christofascist pockets behind her.
Specifically, the pockets come from the NCOSE (National Center on Sexual Exploitation), who's purpose is to quote, "defend human dignity".
I kinda feel like defending human dignity is not having your son involved in a lawsuit against porn sites.
Yeah, the teen isn't enjoying life having to deal with his judgmental helicopter mother. But that's not the porn sites fault.
Teenage boys like to look at naked women a lot, and will go to great lengths to obtain said material, legal or not, due to the 1 2 punch of raging hormones and not fully developed frontal lobes. News at 11 for the mother of the year over in Kansas that hasn't been paying attention to what teenage boys are usually like for all of recorded history and beyond.
I can't imagine what she would do if he happened to be into trans porn or God forbid gay porn. The horror. She would be the laughing stock of the garden club among her equally uptight peers. Would someone please think of all of the adult embarrassments in these times of teenagers finding themselves! /s
She is probably an american christian. You think she even cares? She only wants her son to go to church and save himself for marriage.
The first two use a lot of cancer advertising so im hoping they are getting done in by their own insistance on annoyance.
hentaicity.com is going to be rough to live down.
Imagine going to school if you were this kid
L(° O °L)
With a mom like this he's probably homeschooled.
Is this an actual law suit by an actual person or from a Jane doe? If this is an actual person, this mom needs to start parenting their kid instead of making everyone else responsible for her kid.
I replied elsewhere, but this is a manufactured case. The goal is to get it in front of the supreme court and get a blanket ban on all porn. This is one of the top objectives of project 2025
I assume the line of thinking is: 1) white people numbers are decreasing, 2) people are not having children, 3) they use protection or not interested because they can watch porn, 4) ban porn means more teenagers getting pregnant??
it also works the other way around, interestingly:
- future is shit
- no vision
- nobody wants to have kids anymore
- women abstain from dating
- we have a loneliness crisis?!?
