These age groups have very low word association percentages compared to the other two age groups, even with older and more well known terms. Possible Conclusions: Majority of respondents responded with some form of "no" or "idk," or the majority responded something wrong/unrelated, or majority of respondents defined these words using phrases that aren't as obvious (example: though "lemons" SHOULD be associated with NSFW words like smut, it's possible this age group could have used words like 'nasty,' 'gross,' 'inappropriate,' 'x-rated,' etc, to refer to NSFW content instead? i.e. Less precise definition defining, even if they did respond technically correct).

{NOTES:
On demographics: Fanlore statement that the majority are het incorrect. Though it is the single largest point of this question, to add up all other responses means that the majority are not het. 409 people chose an option that was not heterosexual. Will fix this in FL article later and continue fixing any statements born from same issue.}
