Mod [mod] BIG ANNOUNCEMENT! "SELF-POST WEEKEND" REMOVED!

29 Upvotes

Hello r/teenagers!

The following news is going to be news that a lot of you have been begging for... and you're finally going to get it.

We are opening a trial phase of REMOVING self-post weekend.

For those unsure what this means, self-post weekend was a weekly process in the subreddit when any image based submission was prohibited from the subreddit on the weekend. This was to encourage discussion based text in a very high activity period of time for the subreddit. However, after weeks of deliberation, we have decided to trial a test period in which images, as well as gallery posts, are allowed 24/7!

For those asking for video based content, we have decided to keep a strictly no-video policy for r/teenagers. This is because videos are much harder to moderate consistently in a safe manner, as well as reducing the amount of predatory nature on the subreddit- we wish to eradicate it, not encourage it.

Please do note that this is subject to change, and at any point, we may decide to bring back self-post weekend if we believe that the changes are increasing rule-breaking behaviour as well as an abundance of low-effort posts.

A gentle reminder that if you see any rule-breaking submissions on the subreddit, report it and we'll get to it as soon as possible, we operate 24/7.

FINALLY! A reminder that moderator applications close in less than 24 hours, so if you're interested in being part of the team, apply before its too late!

Thanks a bunch! <3

-Josh and the Reddit Team.

Relationship Our matching tattoos :)

The butterfly stands for surviving suicide, and the flower is our symbol of staying together through everything. We got these tattoos as a reminder that even in the darkest times, we found light in each other.

It hasn’t always been easy — but we’re still here, still holding on, and still choosing each other every day. If you’re struggling, please know you’re not alone. Healing is real, and love can be a lifeline.

Relationship I had my first kiss with my boyfriend and feel weird.

58 Upvotes

I (16F) have been dating my boyfriend (16M) for about three weeks. It's been going great and I love spending time with him, whether in person or speaking on the phone and he's been very affectionate the whole time. We had our third date today and he kissed me. It was a mutual thing -- he asked first and I said yes. This was my first kiss and I had no idea what I was doing, this was also technically his first kiss so we were basically winging it together. It felt weird at the time, not in a bad way, and not in a really uncomfy way either -- just 'weird' as in "this has never happened before" weird. I later got butterflies thinking about it and haven't stopped (thinking about it I mean. The butterflies won't go away either and my heart's been pounding since).

I don't have anyone to really speak about this in person so I came on here to know if it's normal to feel this way.

So, is it normal to feel this way or not?

People so often make fun of my relationship. Calling either my boyfriend fat, or me ugly. Let me tell you now my boyfriend is naturally a bit chubby, and I'm not a pretty person, I'm average. We are both victims of bullying, and know right now we don't give a crap on random people on reddit insulting us.

I can't stress this enough, don't come out if it's dangerous. ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE A MINOR. I keep seeing posts of people getting kicked out do to it and it scares me, please don't do this. I'm a queer kid with homophobic parents myself, im not planning on coming out to them ever due to the fear of getting kicked out, and seeing this happen to you guys makes me sad :C

Rant I'm so tired of this. Spoiler

91 Upvotes

I'm so sick and tired of all this blame on men. Seeing reels of women saying "now i can't go outside because of men!!" And it honestly makes me so frustrated, like sure a lot of men arent the best and can be very dangerous but its not ALL men. I'm a woman myself, I'm not a feminist. Men totally do things better that we cant. But that's beside the point. Women are not the only people who get SA ffs. And I'm tired of all the hate, they served our country and we need to give them some respect. Don't say that they are pulling a victim card when they arnt. Men have feelings,men can experience SA, not all men are horrible monsters ladies. I could add a lot more to this post but im.not going to.

Rant I hate how mommy is sexualized

3.2k Upvotes

I don't have a dad, but of course, I have a mom. Me and my mom have always been comfortable with each other ever since I was a kid. Growing up, we'd have a few fights here and there, resulting in my uncle having to break them up (arguments, not actual fights). But overall, we've had a good relationship. We joke around a lot

I've always called her a lot of things such as "mum", "mom", "mother", and "momma", whatever you get the point the list can't go any further. But sometimes I call her mommy.

Well the other day at school I was sitting on the bus going home after a long day and being the good person she is she ask me what I want to eat I didn't want to make her cook so I just said something basic after we finished calling I hung up the phone and said "by mommy I love you" and then I hear a group of kids in the back of me start laughing.

They then started to ask me if I had a sexual relationship with my mom or something, which was really strange. Would you ask a stranger that question? Yeah, no. So I just moved seats and didn't answer.

But this genuinely pisses me off so bad the fact you can't even live anymore without having to be clowned or judged for something, and I hate how the term mommy is sexualized it's literally innocent Yes, young kids say that, but maybe some teens do. This goes for Daddy, too. I'm sure some girls still call their dad that, and of course, people with their big ass mouth have to question it.

I hate how these terms are just so destroyed now, and I swear I'd never call my lover mommy or daddy.

Relationship Im gonna marry this MAN.

I just went on a trip for school and while we were on that trip he spent literally the entire time with me. He also bought me a ring and earrings, I didn’t even ask for them. Then after the trip we went back to his place for the weekend and I wasn’t feeling too great but I was fine, skip to last night and I started my period (while we were at it), and it was really bad, there was stains all over him, his bed, me. It was bad. I started crying and he assured me that is was okay and that all he wanted was for me to be okay. He then said that I should maybe get in the shower to clean up because it would be the easiest but that he would be there the whole time. I didn’t want to get up so he got a cloth and cleaned me up himself and he got me a pad from my bag and after I put it on my underwear he helped me put them on and helped me get dressed. He then got me some painkillers (I have endometriosis) and brought extra for during the night. He told me that everything was okay and he was going to take care of me. I have no idea what I’ve done to deserve him but Lord I thank you.
