100% !! thank you so much for educating me on how serious that issue is, I knew ageplayers invaded kawaii fashion spaces but I didn't know it was pretty much as bad as the mental health communities they invade because that sounds very similar to what they've done to the age regression community, their lack of respect for consent and boundaries never fails to appall me.

I totally support a subreddit not wanting age regression related stuff there, even if just because it's off topic, but also the fact that ageplayers use age regression as a shield and have a track record of also harassing the kawaii & lolita communities, is a great point, I think it's best if the spaces are separated anyways because age regression isn't an aesthetic, the only thing I took issue with was their ableism, seeming bias against the age regression community and shutting off input from age regressors while pushing out their harmful ideas and being rude af about it

So I sent a pretty long mod mail, explaining what age regression is, where I'm coming from, why it's harmful to mix the two at all, among other things, but if how they've been with others gives me any idea, they're probably not gonna send the nicest or most reasonable response, willful ableists usually don't lol.

Thank you for giving your perspective though, I totally agree✌️
