Rules

On Wednesday twitch changed their site rules to allow artistic nudity. The policy allowed streams to display nonsexual nudity as long as the stream is tagged, so that the stream would be hidden from the front page. Twitch rescinded the policy 2 days later.

Is the former policy why I saw a screenshot of some greased up girl without a top on twitch?

I don't think twitch could possibly be used for "artistic" nudity tbh. It would just become a cam porn site, which it almost is anyway.

Yes. There was a surge of streams that were testing the boundaries of the new rule. I think Twitch may have revoked the rule because they were overwhelmed by how many streams were testing the limits.

testing the limits.

yeah, testing the limits of how big of a dick and balls would fit on their drawing of a wolf-man.

get that bread while they'll let you i guess.

Considering the history of streamers testing the limits, they must have known what would happen

depending on the girl she might've been dressed and using a suggestive camera angle. if you saw female-presenting nipples i'm thinking of someone else.

IIRC it was framed so the image ended before any nipples so she could have been wearing some kind of top ig

The latest policy doesn't change that. They rolled back depictions of nudity, but not any of the rules around actual people.
