Comment on Twitch updates sexual content guidelines amid ‘topless’ meta backlash
Land_Strider@lemmy.world 11 months agoNah I wouldn’t say it is different in the rest of the world. Yes, open minded people everywhere don’t get bothered by bare skin in a lot of situations, but there are also a lot of people that perceive it as a taboo. Besides that, a lot of people that okay with bare skin on many contexts, there are still many of them that don’t expect or want a bare skin to be a factor in a lot of others, varying by individuals.
For example, I wouldn’t mind bare skin and varying degrees of intimacy in a lot of entertainment media, but still I would expect this to me a non-factor in the indicator of quality in most of them. For twitch, a platform that has come about and widely known as a gaming streaming site, I would expect the key performance indicators of content creators to be their gaming skills and gaming related entertainment value, not their bare skin. Alas all of us know that bare skin would definitely be a factor in the KPI of content creators because also sex sells, but I’m not going to Twitch to purchase sex.

The amount of movies marked R in America that get PG ratings in Europe and other places in the world because they show nudity is rather high.
First one to come to mind is Amelie. It’s R, restricted to adults only like porn in the US, South-Korea and Malaysia, but 7 in Sweden, 11 in Finland, G (suitable for all ages) in Japan and so on.
