It says what to do if you are over 18, but thinks you are under 18. But what if it identifies someone under 18 as being older?

And what if you are over 18, but don't want to be exposed to that "adult" content?

And

> Content that promotes extreme beauty standards, unhealthy dieting, or body shaming

Seem dangerous regardless of age.

Don't prompt it.

What are these extremes beauty standards being promoted?

Because it seems to me large swaths of the population need some beauty standards

    Yes, but you're not allowed to say that to them.

    They are victimized by the fact that models are attractive, and that is "unrealistic," so they've been getting plus sized models etc.

    The "extreme beauty standards" are basically just "healthy BMI."

      Anorexia is overrepresented in both male and female models.

      To get that "ripped" look so many "fit" guys have, they often have to be dehydrated.

      Actresses wear full faces of makeup even in apocalyptic scenarios.

      It goes way beyond "just don't be fat".

        It does, but the remedy they choose is not "women don't wear makeup," it's "we use fat women, and they wear more makeup than skinny women."
