Other policies that were once prohibited and are now allowed with a label include “fictionalized …fully exposed female-presenting breasts and/or genitals or buttocks regardless of gender,” “body writing on female-presenting breasts and/or buttocks regardless of gender,” and “erotic dances that involve disrobing or disrobing gestures, such as strip teases.”

They're really going all in on this

Doesn't this pretty clearly allow Vtubers to get as horny as they want? Their avatars are all fictionalized, but that feels like it's going really far over the line of what Twitch used to be.

They might as well just rebrand into a cam girl site at this point.

How do I apply for this job to determine who is an artist and who isn't? I have years of experience. 🤵‍♂️

I've always heard that twitch is full of softcore was because it was not blocked in various jurisdictions (schools, countries, whatever) that otherwise block porn. I guess this will be a way to test that. If twitch is blocked at the same level as chaturbate, will softcore on twitch be as profitable?

Twitch has been downhill since Justin.tv shut down. Nothing they do surprises me anymore.

And this came right after they banned el_xox, a vtuber, indefinitely for "nudity", though the model they used was just zoomed in so you just couldn't see below the shoulders, instead of actually being naked.

Seems they got unbanned though, but good on twitch to put their more out less already unwritten simp-streamer rules in writing.

Does that mean I can finally stream HuniePop on there now?
