Not trying to create a struggle sesh, just want to facilitate a discussion on the matter: Is sexual content of any kind okay, or not okay, here?

I'm using an alt to avoid potential retaliation, but have been a user for over a year, and it's just that the stance on sexual content/jokes seems to fluctuate alot. One week some sexual discussion/jokes are okay, the other there's seemingly zero tolerance.

I get not wanting full-on porn posts or unironic :awooga:-ing or stuff like that, but I feel like there's some nuance before it gets to those extreme points.

Sex is cool, good, funny and a huge part of life for most people imo, and I think as long as it's not porn or sexist ogling, there should be some wiggle room before something gets removed.

    Sex is comedy is banned.

    Sex is boring, indeed, foisted upon us at all angles and at all times. Rebecca Loos ‘pleasuring’ a pig on Channel 5; atrociously unfunny sitcoms like Carrie and Barry and that unfeasibly shit Friday night C4 series whose name escapes me, whose reliance upon explicit sexual reference show that sex in such comedies is now as drearily inevitable as the litany of cosy social embarrasments in such staid seventies shows as Terry and June used to be. Where once the comedy, such as it was, turned upon burning the roast beef when the boss was due for a dinner party, now it depends upon gratuitous smut which is offered up with that sremoveding adolescent duplicity typical of sexualists: i.e. sex is both ordinary, everyday, nothing special yet at the same time charged with a frission of naughty transgression.

        I get why such words get caught by the censor, but it does have the ironic effect of me running through various slurs in my head based on context clues to complete the word like it's some game of bigoted hangman.
