And I don't think they're going to seek out those images on their own, especially if they're uncomfortable with gay shit to start. A big part of why I mix tech and gay material on one account is to expose straight dudes to a bigger world. To weaken & split stereotypes via contact
Another part of this is that it remains important, for those of us with the privilege to be outspoken, to hold the door wide open for all those faggots whom aren't yet in the right place to be fully themselves. Sometimes y'all send me email and it makes me cry. <3
You can tell I have a liberal arts degree because I've somehow managed to conjure up an ethical case for posting nudes to main, ANYWAY, MOVING ON
Late last year, Tumblr moved aggressively to remove "adult" content from their platform. Roughly a third of my blog was nuked overnight by automated systems. Fully clothed images in neutral poses were flagged as adult. Appeals took months per post. The Gays migrated away en masse
In 2014, Facebook put in place the Real Names policy. Many of my friends were banned for using their trans names, drag names, leather names. The names their community knew them by. They said they were going to fix it, but four years later, I *still* have friends being suspended.
Facebook & IG's moderation policies have become aggressively conservative in the last couple years, as @PupAmp has chronicled. You can be suspended for using the peach emoji. For calling yourself--a gay person--"faggot". For nudity, even with genitals and nipples covered.
Instagram's content restrictions and aggressive enforcement means that many of us gays have a chain of alts, and are used to jumping from account to account as our mains are deleted or suspended. Our tights are too tight. The butt angle a little too direct. We skirt the edge.
When I brought this up at a party last week, almost everyone in the room had a suspension story. It's just a fact of life that every few months to years, you're going to be cut off from a good chunk of your friends and extended circle; perhaps lose your history permanently.
There's something here about how enforcement-on-report allows for suspensions to be weaponized against us when we piss someone off. I was suspended immediately after calling a white supremacist "horny". Who knows if that was what it took. Anyway, some other time.
