I’m just reading up on this NSFW ban and I would like to say firstly, this is targeting sex workers. Banning any nude content “regardless of age” is their excuse to expand on the shadow banning and blog deletion they’ve been hitting SW with for the last year.

The first purge, while quick and heavy handed, did get rid of some popular pedo blogs and CP artists, but there’s still a ton of porn blogs with stolen porn and porn bots that crop up in everyone’s notes consistently. If they were truly trying to get rid of problem blogs, all those bots would’ve been first to go; but we already know they get money from that so why would they get rid of them?

The first exclusions of “real-life genitals or “female-presenting” nipples” very clearly affects sex workers. This means that people can still draw nudity, because that section (1) says real-life genitals and (2) doesn’t include illustrations. The second half does include illustrations, but that’s relative to depicting “sex acts”. Which means people can still draw sexually charged content so long as no one is really having sex or being depicted as having sex in illustrated works.

The contention that erotica and illustrations can be covered as “art” and be protected under their idea of free speech is literally giving fandom creators a pass. So many issues within fandom-related content is written fics that include terrible shit like abusive relationships, age gaps, rape in various forms, raceplay, and etc. If that is still not going to be considered “adult content” that should be banned from the site, then half the people whining about being pushed off tumblr are still protected.

Half the child porn on here from fandom-related content isn’t explicit sex acts. There are a bunch that are sexually charged or are intended to be sexually stimulating, like those aheago heavy-breath BDSM adjacent anime renderings of whoever, but don’t actually fall into the realm of a sex act. They also have not addressed the fact that nothing even remotely sexual or suggestive should be permitted if it contains children, real or fictional.

Y’all can keep digging your heels in claiming that this is for the good of children, but nothing that they’re saying is really indicative of them making moves to ban and prevent the content that is most likely going to be seen by children.

Sex workers and most adult bloggers who create sexual or pornographic content set their blogs to explicit, block anyone who is underaged, and use sites that require age verification when sharing their explicit full-length content.

These new guidelines are punishing sex workers while still allowing people to post most of the offending content children would be/are already being exposed to. Some of y’all need to put on your critical thinking hats.

You cannot draw it. Isn’t that an illustration?

You can’t draw a sex act, ie. explicit intercourse. I highlighted right there the part that says nudity and erotica are still permitted in written and illustrated content.

Yeah it’s cool to pretend you hate this site despite logging in via oxygen mask every day like a coward but I’m gonna miss this site when it tanks. Never have I interacted with a piece of media that is this entertaining and outrageous. It’s historical.

Tumblr’s polarity is truly only outmatched by Twitter to me. There are amazing and creative people here and then there are demons and scoundrels and the insane amount of micro-societies created by both would make any sociologist have a field day. You are always two degrees of separation away from mind-blowing confusion if you click any link on your dashboard. The constant stimulation…is terrifying.
