I might be over-simplifying the problem, but wouldn't it be far easier to
code and/or address people concerns if it was mandatory to enter a full
birth-date including year... but then one had tick boxes to indicate if one
wished to *display* or not the day/month/year of your birthday on your
profile page. [so that the user could decide on their combo]

The system itself could retain a value for birthdate and calculate under or
over values such as 13/16/18 as  a flag, which would not be transparent to
the users,  but would be used to set threshold values for restricted access,
as set by community moderators and/or journal owners.

But like I said.. maybe I'm off-beam.
