You may not be completely wrong, but this is her answer:
> YouTube's criteria are patriarchal, and male gaze focused- if men like it, it's bad and women need to change
I think she's right. The kind of puritanism enforced by Youtube (or Facebook) is based on, and obsessed by, male gaze, and therefore patriarchal and retrograde.
I would agree that there's a limit, and that limit is porn (yet Twitter doesn't censor porn, with no ill consequence to their business). What she's doing isn't porn.
- XorNot 5y agoThis is pretty closely related to hot tub channels on Twitch though. There is, very obviously, a whole strain of content aimed at "sexual content where you normally can't have sexual content" - and the problem for providers is not dealing with it at some point means that is now what your platform is for (which ironically pretty much devalues the original content - the taboo is the appeal).
- chii 5y ago> yet Twitter doesn't censor porn they do - if it's explicit, you must login to view it. I'd consider that a partial censorship.
