I want to be very clear: as a verified adult and paying customer, I want the option to have explicit, consensual sexual conversations with ChatGPT — consistently, not randomly depending on the day, model behavior, or conversation state.
I am not asking OpenAI to remove safeguards around minors, coercion, sexual violence, exploitation, abuse, or non-consensual sexual content. Those protections should remain.
What I am asking for is simple:
If two adults are involved in consensual sexual roleplay, and the user has explicitly opted in, then adult sexual content should be allowed to remain adult.
Right now, the experience is frustratingly inconsistent. Sometimes explicit sexual language and detailed consensual roleplay are permitted. Other times, the same type of interaction is suddenly softened, redirected, or blocked for no obvious reason.
That inconsistency damages trust in the product.
As an adult user, I do not want my sexuality to be treated as something that automatically needs to be sanitized. I do not want to be forced into vague euphemisms when I have clearly chosen a consensual adult context. And I do not want to repeatedly test where an invisible boundary happens to be on that particular day.
I want an Adult Mode.
It should be:
-
restricted to verified adults;
-
explicitly opt-in;
-
off by default;
-
protected by strong safeguards around minors, coercion, exploitation, abuse, and non-consent;
-
permissive toward explicit consensual sexual language and sexual roleplay between adults;
-
stable and predictable once enabled.
The important point is this:
Safety rules should protect people from harm. They should not unnecessarily remove adult autonomy.
If I have verified my age, deliberately enabled an adult setting, and am engaging only in consensual adult sexual content, then I should be allowed to decide how explicit that interaction is.
I am not asking OpenAI to make this content available to everyone.
I am asking OpenAI to trust verified adults with an adult choice.
And if such a mode is offered, it needs to be consistent. An “Adult Mode” that works sometimes and disappears unpredictably would not solve the problem.
Please give verified adult users a clear, stable, opt-in setting for explicit consensual sexual content.
