I can imagine it but what point are you trying to make here?
Comment on Twitch updates attire policy to prohibit implied nudity.

You grow up and see your parents have sex openly perhaps hundreds of times. When you go to your friend’s house you see their parents doing the deed. You and your friend even did it a few times.
Perhaps a half dozen times you see grandma and grandpa doing it after thanksgiving dinner. No big deal, you’ve seen it so many times now, you barely even look. There is sex in clubs, sex in a city bus, sex at lunch at offices. But amazingly no sex in bathroom stalls or rest areas, or dirty hotels, what few that even exist in this world.
You personally have sex maybe 20 times with various peers before you reach your 18th birthday. You struggle to even remember. You lost count a while ago because it is honestly like the question “how many times did you have eggs for breakfast.” By the time you reach your thirties it’s anyone’s guess.
This is the world where no one would care about implied nudity or even full on sex on Twitch. And forget about the taboo-driven sex addictions that are problems. We’d have other taboos, sure, but they wouldn’t be about sex.

That they want to see their parents and grandparents going at it.

Someone read the first chapter of "Brave New World" and thought it was a true indictment of modern culture.

nobody is advocating this, nor would this be necessary to address or to even reduce irrational/outmoded taboos surrounding nudity and sex.
going to all the trouble to illustrate such a bizarre extreme only proves the point that you’re willing to imagine such a thing out of fear rather than address the actual problem.

Wasn’t any trouble, but one ridiculous extreme can sometimes shine a light on another…

Sometime, but not in this case it would seem.

So I’m not the only one to have that idea cross their mind! Thank you sir, for making me feel less weird.
It would still feel strange to open twitch just to discover dozens of streamers shaking hands though.

This is literally my ideal world.

Nudity does not equal sex. People could give up clothes completely and continue with their lives as normal and I bet there would not be any noticable uptick in sex. People have sex, usually in private, even if they would be straight up nudists.
