Well, I just submitted the beginning of my own story. There's probably going to be a little violence and gore, and I do have a sex scene and references to sexual content (a guy and a girl, if you must know) What compelled me to finally put it on the Red Curtain side was the fact that my original character is incredibly foul-mouthed. If a movie gets rated R for a few uses of the word "fuck," and the Red Curtain is reserved for items above PG-13, then...

Swear words should be used in moderation. Like, only characters that should swear, and only when they're talking, otherwise the narator gets too much personality and distracts from te story, or the swear wrds lose impact. I try to not be potty mouthed at all, cause when you call someone a bastard or whatever, you KNOW they are annoyed. Besides, they're offensive. Casually reading a word like that makes you feel bad, even if it's only sublimical, and you don't notice it. It shouldn't be RC cause of language only. IT's the content.
Point- Red Curtin is for 18 + things. Just so you know. You have to be 13 to JOIN Paperdemon. Paperdemon does allowe nudity to a point (No pink bits) so Shouenen-ai etc is allowed in the Paperdemon side. That's soft core- cuddling, kissing... anything sexual goes to RC, or over graphically violent.
Just to clarify ;) We AREN'T anal Deviantarters... We understand that 13 year olds aren't idiots. The mature flag doesn't go on JUST cause its nude around here ;) In saying that, also the vibe that trhe art / writing gives off may push it over...
