i'm wondering why you had to ask when the answer is so obvious

That begs to question: Are feet pornographic? You can google say Miley Cryus and no doubt find photo's that show her feet, but post them on this board or say the "mouse-pad" and they'd be taken off and the poster branded a pervert. I'm pretty sure the government doesn't view feet as obscene.

It's very simple. There are liability issues. Since this is a website where a sexual fetish of feet is discussed, there is liability for both the posters, and Wu and his mods. Say someone posts pictures of a 15 year old friend's feet here, and a parent gets access to the site, sees the pics, and gets angry about their underage daughter being posted here. That parent can call the cops, who can access this site, and then get Wu and whoever posted the pics in trouble. Once you are dealing with over 18, it is consent between adults, and there is no liability. The same exists for celebs.
Just so everyone knows, sometimes law enforcement loves to watch websites like this, and other sex websites, and will pose as minors, to nail predators, which is why over 18 is needed. Whatever goes on between two consenting adults over 18, has no law consequences. If a 70 year old wants to pleasure himself to an 18 yr olds feet, so be it, or if an 18 year old wants to rub her feet on a 65 year old man, no problemo, but once you talk about anything under 18, whole different ballgame, with parents involvement and all.

doesnt take a rocket scientist to know that a fetish is a sexual thing/sexual preference.you don't need chris hansen to remind you that if you are an adult with a foot fetish and want to look @ underage girls feet what the deal is with that .thease boards like wus or the pad are meant for adults on every level and there is absolutly no room for exposing minors in any sexual light,nor is it wanted by the people on thease boards and communities,including myself

MitchC has most of the answer. It is also a matter of defining "childhood" and formative years, as well as delineating when a person actually knows the import and ramifications of what they do: "adulthood". We, in the U.S.A., have defined the line at 18 - probably a pretty good guess (sure, there are kids at the age of 12 that know what they are doing, few and far between, and there are twits that still don't have a grasp at age 40).
By creating this demarcation, we declare that those below the age of 18 are sacrosanct; there are things about which they needn't know or in which they shouldn't participate. Just let them be kids; that goes by fast enough.

Yeah I think the 18 law is fair enough. Hell. I'm 28 now and sometimes 18 seems even a little too young! I don't think I could date someone that age.

Don't worry about what goes on at Bebo or MySpace...this is Wu's, and the reason we're so stringent about the 18 and over is because we're doing whatever it takes to make sure this site, of all sites, doesn't end up in the next Chris Hansen special.
