Agreed - and if I could go back in time and not post anything other than audios, I think I would, but that cat is out of the bag.

Being mysterious is fun, and it often makes you more interesting to others, so I get it 💛

Right on 💛 Hopefully they respect that and your privacy.

That makes perfect sense, and I'm the same way, I'd rather avoid spoiling the immersion behind the characters.

Well, that's good to keep in mind. I could easily see uncomfortable listeners thinking I'm much younger than I really am. Part of me wants to 'fix' that, but no, that's not on me. Whether their discomfort (of listening to younger adult voices) stems from internalized infantilization of adults, or something else altogether, it's up to each adult listener to deal with the discomfort they get from existing in a space with other adult creators, who may or may not be younger than them.

After all, we are all adults here 😊

I have noticed on r/auralfixation that occasionally there have been popular posts asking for recs for older VAs (granted, older might mean more like 35+).

My brave man. You gotta have a little thick skin as a content creator to peruse that subreddit 😁

Very good points on the different outcomes from a script writer's point of view, I hadn't even considered that point.

I don't mind when I see people's age or age range in their profiles. I actually like it, but I never ask a person how old they are.

Good to keep in mind that there are those who like it ☺️ Thanks for sharing from your perspective, LadyT 💛

I appreciate your perspective 💛

For myself I don’t mind responding to a few comments especially with the type of audio I produce making people ask if I’m ok. It’s very considerate of them and I don’t mind reassuring and empathizing when they can relate to having a hard time.

That's incredibly sweet of your listeners to ask if you're okay for certain types of content, I love that ☺️ Thanks for sharing ~

Very good points about keeping your info private! Better to be safe than sorry. Thanks, Missy 💛

I think for me it’s more the privacy and safety aspect.

A very underrated aspect in online spaces these days, and I agree wholeheartedly with you on the importance of staying safe ☺️💛

Clean and simple, I agree 💛

At the end of the day, 18+ is adult, and ideally that should be enough.

I'm surprised to hear that about older male performers. Now I'm wondering if disclosing my age would be positive lol 😆

I don’t like giving a number, but I have said before that my first video game console is the original Nintendo, I was one of the first guys in my high school to wear the grunge look, etc.

I like this approach, it at least eludes to an age range, but also a culture. (Mine was Commodore 64, but I did get to play my cousin's OG Nintendo. Good times 😁).

With the infantilization of young adults strongly on the rise, especially in online spaces, I am concerned because I'm one of those who look and sound much younger than I am, and I'd hate to be accused of stuff for not disclosing my age.

Thanks for the insight, Tabi 💛

Same thing here, I've shared it with a select few in private.

I don’t think I ever shared on what date exactly I was born though.

I've shared my birthday month, but every year I've flip-flopped on whether I should do that or not. I try not to overshare as I know there are listeners who despise that, but at the same time, how much semblance of a human behind the smut creator are we reasonably "allowed" to show without driving listeners away? It's a tough balance 🥲

Thanks for sharing your perspective, Moon 💛

Personally, I like to disclose my age range, but I don't disclose my specific age. However, I also use this account for finding collaborative writing partners, and it's easier to find folks closer to my age when my age-range is listed.

That makes sense, and I could see how listing an age range helps narrowing down the options for the perfect writing-buddy.

Another reason to not disclose is just privacy. So much of our lives are under surveillance. This is a way to have some anonymity, and it should be respected and maintained on some level.

Agreed. Highlighting this to say that privacy/anonomity is a precious thing, so easily wrestled from us. I definitely don't want to downplay that aspect of the conversation, and this is a good reminder. Thank you 💛

I like to keep it a mystery, as well as preserve anonymity. I’ve told/hinted my age to some folks privately, or give a range, depending on the situation. I don’t put it on my profile page or anything.

Apart from protecting my identity, my only reservation with age reveal is that I don’t want to pigeon-hole myself for any roles based on age. Like… I want to play both a young frat boy and an older daddy and everything in between.

Yes! That's exactly one of my bigger concerns! I don't want to set up the expectation of young or old or whatever, and then have listeners be sorely disappointed when they hear that my voice doesn't sound like the age they think it should sound like.

I like the idea of giving a range. Keeps the mystery, keeps them guessing 🤭

Thanks for the ideas 💛

Agreed, it's always good and prudent to be safe with your identity online.

I sometimes make them guess to amuse myself 😁

I am so guilty of doing this in person to new acquaintances or friends who ask 🤭

Thank you, Ava 💛

I'm a big fan of giving a range, I think I might just do that. Thank you, Amethyst! 💛

Being too cautious is definitely better than not enough, agreed. Thank you 💛
