r/40something Subreddit Rules

1

No Adult Content Creators

This is not a NSFW subreddit. If your profile includes links to adult content or you're involved in adult content creation, you will very likely be banned. Our bot scans profiles for this kind of material so let’s keep it clean and respectful.

2

Keep selfies safe for work!

Think of this as a public space—if it’s not something you’d feel comfortable showing in a coffee shop, it probably doesn’t belong here. No swimsuits, shirtless men, or outfits you wouldn’t wear in public. No suggestive posing, leaning, or positioning to imply exposure. No visible nipples, areola, genitals, or anything similar. Do not use hands, stickers, pets, objects, or editing to suggest coverage of nudity. This sub is not the place for teasing or testing boundaries.

Violation reason: NSFW selfies
3

No surveys, self-promotion, fundraising or spam.

Do not post links to personal projects, GoFundMe pages, or other promotional content. If your post title is a question, it should include a personal story or context. Random or one-line questions will be removed. Message the mods if you think your post is an exception. Exceptions are rare.

4

This isn't R4R.

No dating-style posts, no “looking for friends” with no substance, and no low-effort shoutouts. If you’re going to post about wanting connection, tell a story or share your experience. We want more than a headline—give us something to connect with.

5

Keep it civil.

Disagreements are fine. Hateful comments, personal attacks, and trolling are not. We remove offensive comments and issue bans when necessary, often without warning. If you don’t like a post, scroll past it. This isn’t a roast forum, and we’re not here to argue.

Violation reason: Hate/Trolling
6

One Selfie Per 7 Days

To keep things fair and balanced, each member may post one selfie every 7 days. Removing your post does not reset the timer.

7

No AI-Generated Images

We do not allow AI-generated or AI-assisted images in this community. All visual content must be created by a human. Posts that include AI-generated content will be removed.

8

No Unsavoury Behaviour

We do not allow inappropriate or unsavoury behaviour in this community. We aim to keep this space respectful and enjoyable for everyone.
