Calls for Twitch to police 'sexual streaming'

[Ulfric Trumpcloak]

You would. Twitch streamers get tons more money than camgirls on porn sites. I know this because.

No they don't, you have to make 16k+ a month on mfc to even break the top 100. I doubt there's more than a couple of chicks on twitch making that money.

[BuckSparkles]

Is it straight guys that are mainly complaining about this? For some reason I kinda doubt it.

I go to twitch to see gamers and maybe find entertaining personalities. Girls acting like whores is not entertaining.

[Azadina]

If I had to guess, paying people to dance for sexual gratification. I don't know about you, but I'd prefer to let the parents of children know about stuff like that. Don't really think that behavior needs to be ingrained in people as children.

I don't know about you, but I believe it's the parents responsibility to actually be aware of what their kids are watching on internet. If you don't know your kid is watching porn or ISIS beheading videos, you failed as a parent more than once.

And the presence of girls "acting like whores" has decreased the number of streamers you prefer?

[therayeffect]

Hopefully Twitch actually steps up and gets rid of these annoying people. Twitch is about streaming video games or educational things. Fuck off to camgirl sites if you wanna show off your body.

[Jastall]

To be fair, if Twitch develops a disreputable reputation because of such streams then most other streamers will take a hit. They have a vested interest in maintaining Twitch's already shaky image.

What image? Twitch is second only to the likes of 4chan when it comes to attracting the dredges of the Internet. When nobody complains about people like Asmongold who literally take pride in living in squalor within their parent's attic, it's not a few titty streamers that will do shit to the site's reputation.

That's not true at all. You're missing a big deal of moral life by claiming that

"Moral life"? Pretty inane. Morality is relative/subjective.

for example, a good friend of yours doing heroin is none of your business. Of course it is. It's your responsibility to help that person.

I would certainly try to help them because they're a friend, but it's not my responsibility to do so. And if they choose to ignore me, well, fuck 'em. Ain't nobody got time for that.

You should care about other people and care that other people are doing well with their lives.

I do care about those within my inner circle (family, friends, etc). But I've no reason or obligation to care about anyone. Caring is a choice, not a mandate.

To say there's 'nothing' wrong with porn (I hope this is hyperbole) is ridiculous. Have you ever done any research on the effects of the industry on its professionals? The damage, both mental and physical? I mean, it's possible you were just using hyperbole, but saying there's 'nothing' wrong is just ignorant.

Sure, there's some sketchy people out there involved in some of the underground porn, but if a couple of consenting adults agree to have sex on camera for money, there's no problem or "damage". Most of the "long term physical and mental 'damage'" claims are either from someone who was involved in sketchy porn or anti-porn cunts trying to find reasons to ban it. Willingly sucking/taking a thousand dicks for cash isn't going to cause mental "damage" and would only cause physical damage if you're just bad it.

Twitch advertises itself as a family appropriate place right? I mean, maybe they've changed, and I could be out of date, but if a product you buy your kid advertises itself as family friendly fun, I'd be a little disturbed if it ended up being suggestively clad women dancing for money.

"a growing band of young women wearing revealing clothing while they game" - i.e. how they get subs.

Police it i say.

[Kraenen]

"Moral life"? Pretty inane. Morality is relative/subjective.

Meh. Caring for others is pretty human, and universal. Except among psychopaths.

I would certainly try to help them because they're a friend, but it's not my responsibility to do so. And if they choose to ignore me, well, fuck 'em. Ain't nobody got time for that.

Truly a great way to construct a society.

I do care about those within my inner circle (family, friends, etc). But I've no reason or obligation to care about anyone. Caring is a choice, not a mandate.

Mandate from who or where? None was implied. Only a moral responsibility, which is a choice, of course.

Sure, there's some sketchy people out there involved in some of the underground porn, but if a couple of consenting adults agree to have sex on camera for money, there's no problem or "damage". Most of the "long term physical and mental 'damage'" claims are either from someone who was involved in sketchy porn or anti-porn cunts trying to find reasons to ban it.

Well, this clears up that you were exaggerating that you thought there was "nothing" at all wrong with porn. But do research into the harm it does on actresses. I can tell you don't really care about other human beings, but as an objective point of fact you should be aware that you're wrong.

This is the gaming content I approve. LUL

[Aggrophobic]

Don't like it, don't watch it.
I don't see the problem.

[Blamblam41]

Problem people are complaining about is unclear guidelines. Your not suppose to "focus" on sexual content at all on twitch.

Ahh yes, and because it's so vague you'd like to see tighter restrictions? More regulations?

I'm not certain that telling all their female streamers how to dress and what to wear on their platform will go over that well unless they drastically increase the pay their now employees get.

[Machismo]

I love all the people whining about how things should be banned... Some of them are the very people who try and justify piracy, or even call themselves conservatives...

It's almost as if those games were made to sell their sex.

EXACTLY. MY FUCKING POINT.

They are so caught up about whining about how people should be controlled forgetting the practices of freedom they preach when it's convenient to them.

[Cosmic Janitor]

I heard it doesn't exist according to some hand-bag holders.

China though seems to have issues with bananas.

[Pipboi]

That's wildly presumptive. They're making money by sexualizing themselves, sure, but that's for anyone willing and wanting to watch, just like many, many, many other huge media figures across the entertainment industry. Sex sells. That's a tried and true market fact. If that bothers you, blame the audience that supports it.

Tough to blame a bunch of 10-15 year olds for being horny and clicking a video of a girl with her tits out on a site they spend countless hours a day on. And I hardly think it's presumptive considering their objectively sexual videos are factually making money, and a significant portion of their viewers are factually children.

[minteK917]

But isn't Twitch mostly aimed for kids and teens? Are these videos tagged as Mature?

really lol. btw when a stream is over 18, it does the over 18 warning every other site does. Twitch is already policing on nudity, its a bannable offense. Showing your cleavage is not porn or nudity, nobody really gives a shit and shouldnt.

[Deleted]

Really, to each their own. But atleast call it what it is, camgirling.
These are hookers. Selling their body for money.
