lazyangel wrote a fantastic post in response to this that I think everyone should read, because not only is it thoughtful, it's wise.
So LJ News/Releases/Biz just announced we can rate our own journals... and if someone isn't logged in and we've rated them "Adult Concepts" they have to click a little button that says they're over 14. (I tried it... that's what happens). I don't know what they have to do if we decide our content is explicit... but I'm curious....
What do you guys think of this new system? Is it weird? Is it worth it? Will you use it? Is it going to annoy the crap out of you?
here's the link to the biz post explaining what it is
So, it's poll time....
[Poll #1097548]

I've never done more than use the NSFW title, and didn't really ever consider locking even during the great debacle (but then again i know i'm a pretty tiny fish in a very big pond, and there aren't many people besides my flist who actually know i exist, much less would take the trouble to find me horribly objectionable)
IMO fuck is far too good a word to stick it behind even an "over 14 only" button :D
