Lmao, women are literally streaming in mini bikinis but VTubers must cover their fucking hips

Fuck Twitch and Amazon for their inhuman work conditions

A while ago I got hit in the recommended streams with a random stream of some girl with absolutely gigantic milkers in only bodypaint. Probably got away with it as some sort of 'art' project, despite the body paint being quite bad and she was practically doing nothing on stream at all, it was just simps throwing money at her for being on screen.

Other times there's just girls in the 'Just chatting' category in tight spandex, leaving nothing to imagination, that are in suggestive poses and flaunting their gigantic tits and asses on screen. Also doing practically nothing but just posing and thanking donations.

Twitch really has weird ass rules when it comes to this shit.

Twitch doesn't want to get rid of it, it's a huge moneymaker.

They just want plausible deniability to keep advertisers, sponsors, and regulatory bodies happy enough. That's why the rules are so weird.

[–] PunchingWood@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago

It's the same with OnlyFans. It wasn't even meant as a porn/sexual medium, but like well over 90% is probably just that.

I just don't hope Twitch let's it roam wild, they just need to man up and call it what it is, it's porn and sexual content, give them their own category and keep them there.

I'm sure we remember not too long ago when rather than go with what the sponsors, advertisers, etc wanted and rein that shit in, they loosened the rules and Twitch essentially became a straight up porn site for two days. And it was already bad before then. It's probably only the plausible deniability preventing them from going back to loosening the rules and raking in the camgirl money. Disappointing but absolutely not surprising that Twitch would probably make more money from that than from the ads, sponsorships and so on they get now.

You had me at huge moneymaker.

I hate that this system works so well to separate stupid horny men from their money, thus creating huge incentives for more and more women to game it.

[–] felykiosa@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago

Its not even good at it , like chaturbate have really cool stream ( a part of the evident porn) . twitch horny stream is so dumb

The Patriarchy strikes again!

On one hand, I think that kind of shit is lame AF, but on the other hand if someone wanted pay me $200/hr to paint my hog green and vacuum in green Luigi hat, you know I’d be down

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 23 points 1 month ago

I'm not mad at the ladies gaming the system, I'm just mad at the system.

[–] quafeinum@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Do you have an only fans?

[–] rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Vacuuming is too out of character, you need to get under the sink and do some plumbing.

EDIT: Scratch that, I just remembered Luigi's Mansion. Vacuuming is canon after all!

[–] DancingBear@midwest.social 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Luigi? That’s weird. What about Wario?

[–] JDPoZ@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Oh man, I hate it when that happens...

...I mean... you should probably share the streamer's Twitch handle so we can all avoid seeing those kinds of videos, since that would be terrible to be forced to see something that terrible.

[–] PunchingWood@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Lol I knew the reference without the link haha

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

One streamer had a butthole cam. Like, low angle cam pointed directly at her asshole.

[–] DancingBear@midwest.social 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That sounds terrible. What’s the link so I can block it

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Sadly don't remember. I found it on LSF or something similar because the clip was another streamer that had to reach out and tell her to switch bikinis because he could literally see her butthole lines. Apparently it was a "twitch meta" that titty streamers did, but it's been banned since then.

[–] Rooki@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

They had literally a "Hot-tub" category and every time i go to twitch i can play "Twitch-Bingo" for with "streamers" with extra sexualised clothings that has 100% of their female parts in their face cam and extra points if it covers 25% of the preview image. Of course all of them not marked as NSFW so 100% child safe

[–] CosmoNova@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Vtubers can do that as well if they're doing it in the right category. It just so happens that they almost never did in the past and kept breaking TOS. The rules are not new at all by the way, just worded more clearly because some users keep throwing fits. Twitch is a train wreck for all sorts of shortcomings and bullshittery, but this isn't really news.
