I apologize if this subject was discussed before. I am trying to understand if models under 18 who register on MM can see pictures labeled "+18".

thank you.

If they lie about their age when they register.

I'm pretty sure only photographers lie from what I've been learning from some of the more successful models on MM. (sarcasm, and I love the nice, sane models)

so, that means that if a model/photographer/MUA/stylist registers stating 15 as their age they can, or they can't see images labeled "+18"?

i think once you're a member, you can see all images. that's from a few of the girls i shot with. . . they told me they can see all the shots in my port.

so, the "+18" label is only a disclaimer/warning meant to wet the visual appetite of non-members and not a "restricted area"? until today i was convinced that "+18" images can be viewed only by people over 18 and I made sure I labeled the images in my port accordingly. Now I realize it was a rather useless exercise... hmm.

The 18+ images can only be seen by members when they're logged in. Non-members, or members that haven't logged in yet, can't see any 18+ shots. It seems to be a small way for MM to prevent random visitors from seeing anything by accident.

My two cents.

When I joined this site, you had to be logged in and over 18 to view images that were marked 18+.  I have talked to several models under 18 who say they can view the 18+ images so it has obviously changed.

I have no idea if that was intentional or unintentional, but that appears to be how it is working now.
