This Is Not Allowed

@lucy_mort whos labeling LGBTQ as "adult content" when it has no nudity? Twitter allows full on nudity. of course they'll mark them, remember Instagram, twitter, fb, yt are 13yo+ sites.

@smallder Facebook has classified content such as women kissing (and clothed) as explicit/pornographic content before, and rejects/removes it when you try to do paid advertising. For a long time Google's search algorithm brought up lesbian porn when looking up the term "lesbian" (just lesbian), whether the person was searching for education, resources, or pornography. It changed just over a year ago. https://www.cosmopolitan.com/uk/... It's not just LGBTQ+ content either. Companies like Hims and Roman can advertise their ED pills on all mainstream platforms while women-centric sexual function products — heck, even ones that are more for straight up *health*, face multiple hurdles just existing on the internet. Here's one such instance where Joylux ultimately got the rare outcome of Facebook reversing their decision, but it's pretty inefficient to have to turn to the press to pressure Facebook just to run a single ad campaign. https://www.mobihealthnews.com/n... Finally as a cherry on top, just the other day YouTube randomly removed the instructional video my company Lioness made to show users on our own site how the Lioness Vibrator works (SFW just showing how to sync the vibe to the app), so now I can't embed a YouTube video on my own website like the normal people. I guess pelvic floor data and charts are a little too explicit for Google. 😬 Or maybe I should have used an Android phone to sync. 😉 @lucy_mort great idea, would love to be in touch!

@smallder @lucy_mort @thisisklinger Speaking of, why was my comment above marked as hidden?

@smallder @lucy_mort @thisisklinger ironically, it seems like PH hides comments with certain keywords 🤦‍♀️

@smallder @lucy_mort @thisisklinger @heyellieday Welp, all the more reason why your work is important!!

@chrismessina You know that there are kids on these platforms? Kids that would not rather see some edgy body 'art' with some chains and nipple piercings and stuff?

@chrismessina @edinvejzovic accounts can choose to show their content to 18+. Why would the content still be censored in that case? Why do you get to show your nipples and I don't? This makes no sense.

@chrismessina @edinvejzovic @sophspages You should @theworld for that. Why do you think everyone is on instagram - just so see your and mine nipples? Nope. We can show our nipples at many sites, behance, twitter. But instagram is a social network.

@edinvejzovic There were no female presenting nipples anywhere on the site. Kids see more on the beach, in movies, and in TV commercials, but let’s stop using children as a smokescreen—what offends YOU about the specific photos shown on TINA?

@edinvejzovic @coreyward It offends me that I don't want to be desensitised to said nipples because I'm exposed to porn all the time, in other words, I don't want to develop a skewed view and a porn addiction. I want my feed to be porn free.

@assembletv when you upload a photo, you get a sharable link that is live right away. To start, while we don’t claim to be experts on moderation ourselves, we are going to do a quick check of submissions before listing them on the main. It is an interesting question though. How does a site like this moderate it’s content? Presumably we need our own content policy too!

@heyellieday so then where does the content that gets banned from your app go ;) Just joking, I love the idea and branding. Great work!

@tomseverini thanks for your comment! It is really a problem how content like this is shut off from a large majority of business tools. For this project, I couldn’t use my go to image host as they prohibit “pornographic” content. I predict a market opportunity for erotic inclusive business tools.
