Indeed. Especially if it's cute animals like Ferrets or Pokemon. If the rule is rewritten to specifically exclude animals, please be sure to add a clause for furry characters as well as it may become a possible ambiguity.

These emotes are important for the community! These emotes are cause no harm.

Dumpy emotes are from a PG children’s movie and for the purpose of humor with no sexual content or context. It is a ferret, please stop assuming a ferret is sexualized

With twerking and other dances allowed on the platform, there is no reason that a PG butt circle should be prohibited. It is harmless and fun and anyone who would sexualize it should be taken off the platform themselves.

We don't condemn bears for being naked. We don't do the same for birds. The emote style represents what we find in nature, with a playful twist. Viewers of all ages can appreciate natural phenomena, so why not make it fun? Please consider allowing the emote style.

I agree too, better to remove the nude streamers from this site, not to put a special category for them as a ART...

This is a reference to the PG movie Open Season. There is nothing sexual, just a funny reference for an older audience

There is nobody using a reasonable amount of logic who would consider these types of emotes to be "sexual" in any way. They need to carve out an exception for cartoon animation that is not at all intended to be considered or used sexually.

Not only that, but it is also just moving it's tail like that as a dance. No reason to ban this bit of fun.

This is unjust and quite frankly uncalled for, it is a fun little emote and it has nothing to do with sexual stuff or nudity. this is in a child's movie so this is one of the safest things to be on Twitch.

The "Dumpy" emote has become a cherished symbol of the twitch community. Over 900 variations of the emote have been created by twitch users, demonstrating its popularity and positive reception. It is often used to express excitement, amusement, or simply to add a touch of silliness to the chat.

The emote fosters a sense of connection and shared humor within the community. Viewers enjoy creating and using new variations, and the emote serves as a fun and engaging way to interact with each other.

I believe that the "Dumpy" emote is a harmless and positive addition to the Twitch ecosystem. It fosters community engagement, provides a form of artistic expression, and adds a touch of humor to all streams.

It's PG, should be on twitch

There's so many people that still have these, and in all honesty - it's all in good fun. There's nothing sexual about them and I have yet to see a sexual depiction of them yet. Agree this should be allowed =)

It's not sexual its just a dance that's cheeky

I understand that the TOS has specific rules but this is a bit too much of a broad brush that do collateral damage to some very much loved emote.

The movie it was based from was already vetted almost 2 decades ago and it was designed for PG, not even PG-13. PG.
Can it please be considered to be allowed based on the valid comments made ?

They're fun and ultimately harmless, getting caught in the crossfire. I'd like to see these type of emotes return!

PG style Dumpy emotes should be allowed seeing as they are fun, nonharmful and the community loves them.

give us the big hot Dumpy emote

I agree, there is nothing sexual about these emotes, it is more of a dance than anything.

There is no drawn buttholes or buttocks, it's flat with a tail, there is nothing to suggest this is sexual.

If this is acceptable for Dreamworks/Disney to put in to family friendly movies, I see no reason why this shouldn't be allowed on twitch.

Agreed. If you think they are sexually explicit, especially in PirateSoftware's case, considering it's a ferret, there is something wrong with you.
