Twitch freed the titty, then immediately covered it up.

On Wednesday twitch changed their site rules to allow artistic nudity. The policy allowed streams to display nonsexual nudity as long as the stream is tagged, so that the stream would be hidden from the front page. Twitch rescinded the policy 2 days later.

    Why does it fucking matter if twitch allows some nudity on there?

    It does to advertisers who don't want their product associated with that. Also, Hexbear doesn't allow nudity / porn partly because it doesn't fit the culture that the mod team wants to cultivate, same goes for Twitch

      What fucking culture ARE they trying to promote on twitch? Kinda seems like the platform is basically designed for cam porn.

        As one YouTube comment I saw elegantly put it

        The cam site finally became a cam site

      nah, they also promote joining the military and beer to children. they're just caving to weird incel nerds who wont shut up about this. it has nothing to to with any kind of moral imperative

          And parents. G*mers and incels can pretend all they want that they're mad about nudity and they'll harass the people doing it but deep down they want their titty streams and are probably frothing at this ban. I think it's def more advertisers and parents who walked past their kids on twitch and saw them watching some softcore.

          Idk I think it's the conservatives that control financial middlemen with veto power, like banks. not advertisers. Advertisers tend to love sexualized imagery and use it all the time.

      I think hexbear does allow nudity so long as it's properly tagged as nsfw, but not porn. I've definitely seen some butts on here

        Someone linked a video of themselves lactating while "a red sun rises" played. That got removed but it did happen

              Whatever happened to it? Used to see a lot of posts from that account.

                Was that the weaponized use of boobs during a struggle session that I remember happening?

                  it was a conversation, heated, about the allowing of sexuality and something about hyperfeminization/hypersexualization as a way of expressing desired gender identities. It kinda did not make sense as an argument.

            A lot of shit happens all the time, but screenshotting our own comments is poor form so we don't record weird shit we do.

          You had the option to let us go on not knowing this existed. Knowing it existed and is now unobtainable is the cruelest act against humanity. I think in solidarity we should all recreate this wonderful sounding art. Not to post, but to put in a locket that we keep close to our hearts.

      it's weird to compare hexbear and twitch, different websites for different things with a vastly different budget to moderate things on. like we exist here on a nothing budget for a niche audience, while twitch is MASSIVE in comparison

      i guess i think of major websites as sort of central hubs of the web, so it's odd to cordon off it like this, similar to tumblrs banning of adult content
