So basically, dress like a prohibition era stripper and call it art? I'm really not comfortable about so many gaming companies not giving a shit about nudity, and I rate it on the same level as them not giving a shit about fostering and creating gambling addictions.
Steam has been at the forefront of this degradation of divides ... Is it really so hard to establish XXX subsidiaries separately for this type of content? I have no problem with services like OnlyFans even though I don't use them.
Not really, just someone who reads the news in Europe and reads the headlines about revenge porn, ai fakes in school, and hormonal headbutting, pissing of teachers, and disrespect of the education system and caretakers only there to benefit them at even younger, more immature ages with far more disdain. If you want to go pedo on children, it's on you, but it's not hard to establish a distinction for adult only stores beyond a really useless age check and just enjoying it yourself without exposing children to it. Why are you so interested in rushing children into (false notions of) sexual (in)maturity (as is often the case when rushed) when that's something that takes time for a reason?
That should be up to the parents, not you, and they shouldn't have to wonder if a platform composed mainly of children has now decided to host adult content and their own specific forms of child controls. Clicking on another link for adult content is not that hard.
Literally having to argue why streamers drawing porn for money and exposure to sexuality becoming a circlejerk to personality cults is bad, incredible..
That ship sailed 30 years ago with the invention of the Internet, but anyways parents are perfectly capable of blocking twitch or supervising their children's media consumption. The rest of the adult world should not have to cater to entitled and incompetent puritanical parents
If it was a game that encouraged going Columbine shooter, no, I'd rate it even worse. But because they are fictional universes, either they just involve the unequivocal bad guys or they are on an arc that has the undertone of exploring the morality of war, the shooting, stabbing, and tearing apart I can dismiss, because while there is a danger to desensitizing the reaction of the visuals of said violence, it does not desensitize the moral qualms people should have about committing those acts.
Sex is to sell sex, and should be kept in adult only stores just like it is in real life. There's no problem with those sex stores existing, there is a problem in dismissing that underage exposure to porn and hardcore porn to the point where using ai fakes in school is becoming a problem.
It's much easier to supervise if you don't have to limit individually by each site's implementation of child control mechanics and can make some gross assumptions about worst case exposure and how bad it can get if they accidentally click the wrong link due to momentary inattentiveness. The adult version is all the work that the admins and moderators due to keep lemmy free from gore/sexually explicit/even worse bullshit spam in NSFW, why suddenly ignore it for some categories of porn, and potentially directed at children no less?
We can end this discussion and just accept that Twitch should begin to identify itself as an adult only streaming platform, if you want. I don't know if that's fair to streamers who struggle to make family friend NSFW content, but the access to porn they can already find on services that explicitly identify themselves as adult only seems to be important enough for people.
