    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.

        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.

      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.

      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
