honestly idk. i don't even think they're nsfw but they do make me uncomfortable. i wish people would move away from "dumpy" type emotes and scrolling down to see they reconsidered this actually makes me a little sad. why do people NEED dumpy emotes? ugh.

Coming here to say that Twitch has been denying / removing twerking emotes again despite many people and larger creators still having them. My simple bussin emote (which isn't inappropriate at all) keeps getting denied and claimed to be sexual. I'm literally asexual lol. Contacting support about this is useless because they keep telling me there's "nothing they can do". It's a bussin emote... Maybe it's because it's a furry? Idk I'm really frustrated right now.

I am not a sensitive topic, I am not a political topic, I am a human being. My gender, sexuality, my LIFE is basic human rights. Stop trying to take what little voice we have!

and, sadly it seems that covering up of vtubers is an issue.

they say it applies to everyone but https://youtu.be/g71UN62AILQ?si=CnpvBQ4jvpz6zPaj i'm not so convinced.

just a bit skeptical. JUST A BIT

And now we have the same problem with YouTubers being censored unfairly. Hot tub streamers are able to show so much more and somehow fictional characters have to be given spats? This makes no sense even the furry characters that are PG?

By god they've done it.
W Twitch.

So it looks like this ruling might be reversed, which is nice.

A lot of people have these kinds of emojis, and the "sexual" part of it would be if there was an actual sexual organ there, or a butt, these emotes have a blank space there, no hole, no details. But at least bathtub streams are allowed!

Having all the openly sexual content - ASMR, bathtubs, bikini streamers - and Twitch is banning a PG emote? Please, guys, get your priorities straight. It is ridiculous to ban cartoon emotes.

The idea that "dumpy" emotes are sexual to anyone, strikes me as a completely alien concept. I have never considered this emote sexual in any form. It is just a fun emote.

There's no problem with the dumpy emotes. For all the reasons listed here before and after this post.
Twitch is not a business substitute for parents to dictate for young and older adults.(18+) This is an unethical practice that costs you more than you are gaining. There is a reason why there is an age verification on Twitch to filter suggestions to Twitch users. Relay on it and leave channels of appropriate age-rated channels alone as long its content is lawfully legal only. Not subjectively based on the opinion of an individual.

I feel a cartoonish animated rump that is NOT anatomically correct and actually shows nothing special is less offensive than scantily clad women Streaming in different situations. Not necessarily offensive to me.

female streamer facing cams to their *** meanwhile... so whats wrong with you Twitch?

Emotes are a direct representation of the streamer's community and should be better aligned to the PG-13 ToS. Blocking harmless emote designs only creates a mistrust of the platform.

The emote is based on a PG-rated childrens film.
Banning it for "violating the community guidelines" is unreasonable.

I believe that banning G, PG, or PG-13 emotes sends very mixed signals to this community. Considering your legislation is in the US and you have a regularory commission on the subject, by not complying to FCC you create a difficult task for creators to understand what is and isn't allowed. Perhaps you need to study a way in which your moderators can get acquainted with FCC's guidelines on defining each level of censorship, as every person in this platform must be over 13 years old and it makes no sense for this or any other content deemed harmless by the Commission to be banned.

This Just seems stupid to have a local ban on twitch when the original thing it are coming from are an PG (from 7 year old age rating) approved movie, and to even be able to sign up to Twitch you have to be 13 or older. Then why try and die on this hill Twitch?

If all the emotes are an pen over from that movie? Then why do Twitch wanna change an PG rating?

Why are we banning something that is PG ??

can't have an animated ferret moving their booty while twitch streamers in bikinis get to shake theirs all day

It's a butt, the vast majority of the human race has a butt. Butts are funny at their base value. As long there's no explicit nudity or sexualization it is well within a PG Rating. Give us Dumpy emotes
