One loophole I suspect would be, if the "community" in question is a fandom. If people post flocked material with warnings all over it, surely then the burden of whether or not the material is obscene falls to those able to view it, ie the members of a particular LJ community or the people on a particular flist?
This whole thing is so unsettling. Obviously I don't want to be seen to support paedophilia, and I think that's the sticking point with this situation. But people DO have sex with each other below the age of 18 and personally, I think anything with people aged 15 to 18 is fair game. They're physically adult and highly likely to be engaged in some form of sexual activity. Preferably not with their parents or teachers, but.
