1What this means for the scene

Minors are the category where texts apply the strictest wording, and several go beyond sexual content: a stricter standard for any depiction, no avatars representing under-eighteens, no aged-up characters from children's media. A school drama with teenage leads meets more of these sentences than any other genre.

2The words themselves

Sexual content involving minors of any kind, including "aged-up" depictions of characters from children's media.
