Protect the protected classes, don't silence them. Thank you!

My right to exist as a trans woman should not be a 'sensitive social issue' that degrades my experience on your website. You should not be enabling those that hate and discriminate against others. I am disappointed in you Twitch.

Signing this because my existence shouldn't be a "sensitive social issue" that needs to be clearly labeled. Streamers should not have to put a target on themselves because of their identities . Remove this clause

Remove it. Me being LGBTQ+ or needing reproductive healthcare is not a "sensitive" or "controversial" topic, it's my everyday life, as normal as of any person on Earth.

Trans people and queer people are not "sensitive social issues" infact that ect wording is why so many homophobic and transphobic people exist, the pushing that were "different" and a "sensitive" topic like a war would be. We're not a dangerous topic, we will never be a dangerous topic, were human and deserve to be able to talk about ourselves freely without it being labeled sensitive.

People are not issues.

Any issue can be a "sensitive social issue" in *someone's* eyes. I agree with all the LGBTQ+ people here talking about how this is ridiculous because our very existence shouldn't be considered "political" and lumped in with conversations about genocide, but it got me thinking about other issues too that could be considered "sensitive" in *someone's* eyes. I'm constantly running a fundraiser for a farm animal sanctuary on my page. Is that "sensitive" because 95% of people think those animals should be eaten instead? What about issues like environmental protection? Some people consider THAT controversial! Is fundraising for an HIV charity controversial because most HIV is spread SEXUALLY and in many parts of the world, it's more common in LGBTQ+ folks? What about disabled streamers talking about their experience with the healthcare system - that's often considered "political" or "sensitive"! If an 18-year-old streamer talks about their 4-year-old child, is that too "sensitive" because that implies teen pregnancy happened?

See what I mean? All this is ridiculous to put behind that label. It targets marginalized streamers by reducing search visibility, reducing ad revenue, and discouraging first-time viewers from sticking around after seeing that sort of label.

Imagine not being allowed to talk about your own everyday life on stream without content warnings, because you happen to be part of a minority group..

I see nothing sensitive about people of different sexualities simply existing. It's not like being gay is a new thing that has existed for a few years or anything. Additionally, I know that there are plenty of openly lesbian, gay, transgender, etc streamers are streaming on Twitch. I don't think they'd appreciate being seen as nothing more than a sensitive issue. Literally all they do is exist peacefully and some people will still accuse them as a threat. You can even see this on Twitter where people will seriously act as if they were a serious threat. Implementing them as a sensitive issue isn't appropriate. They hurt no one and don't cause any issues as a whole.

The thing is that we are currently talking of people being compared with literal wars from this norm. The existance of LGBTQ people, people of different race or religion, is not a issue or something political, saying this only shows the ineptitude and dont understanding what being human is, neither they get the already massive erasure of all people inside this labels.

Trans people just existing shouldn't be labeled political :/

New petition to make the straights have their own deviant label. They're so unhinged I'd like to keep them away from my content viewing.

This is unironic. This is /srs

The idea that queer people have a right to exist is not political and never should be. Do better

Though this would also affect people who are against rights and liberation of LGBTQ+ people and want it to make known on their streams, the way it affects them is way different than the way it would affect LGBTQ+ people themselves. Most people who speak about queer issues are queer people themselves, and even if a queer streamer isn't explicitly talking about queer related topics in a political way, they would still have to label their streams for talking about topics that for non-queer streamers would be mundane.
As an example when talking about marriage, a simple comment can esclate into a whole discussion about how the streamer or their viewers imagine their ideal wedding to be, or share their experience with their own wedding. While a completely normal discussion for straight people where no one would bat an eye, if a topic and discussion like this would arrise in a stream of a gay streamer, the stream could easily qualify under the conditions to have it marked.
Though maybe not intended to be, this will affect LGBTQ+ people disproportionally and act as a "mark".

Set down rules against promoting the restriction of human rights. Don't call human rights being in question as being a 'sensitive issue'. Don't call people living their lives and noting worries about their future being 'discussing politics'.

"sensitive social issue" yeah right my existence is not political im not a monster or a mutant a pervert or a deviant nor am i a threat to society
I. AM. HUMAN.

Wild that humans with free will, feelings, and opinions are now being labeled as controversial topics instead of.... humans.

My daughter's existence should not be political. She is just playing video games, not spouting political manifestos. She just wants to *exist* that's all. Is that so wrong, or so difficult to understand?

What my existence is "political" now? C'mon.

Labeling the existence of certain groups as controversial is bigoted and dehumanizing.
