2.7 is stupid
2 years ago
Okay, so like, policy 2.7 was clarified, and it's kind of awful to be honest? I don't know how to describe it, but it really feels like they're treating this as a black and white issue, which I seriously hope isn't the case. In particular, it was the statement about minors being allowed in "SFW and non-sexual" contexts like transformation and vore.
???
So here's the thing. Yes, things like that can be very tame. You see characters getting transformed all the time in media, and you see characters getting swallowed up, especially by sea creatures. And yes, it's true that there are some artists like myself who try to keep the contexts of stuff like transformation more on the safe end.
But, saying that transformation and vore are generally SFW is straight up wrong. I can guarantee you that at least 80% of the vore art on this website has some sort of intent behind it, and TF is somewhere around the same boat. There are plenty of people who want to treat it as more of a fun thing and not get sexual about it, I'm the same way a lot of the time. But it feels extremely wrong to categorize TF and vore as generally being SFW for all characters, including minors, and then turn around and say that most other kinks are considered NSFW and that having minor characters or characters with "child-like proportions" anywhere close to those contexts is a bannable offense. It's stupid. This isn't something that can be treated like it's either "this" or "that".

FA+

Like, I know vore is presented safely in a lot of children's media, but EVERYONE on this site knows damn well that's not how vore art that gets uploaded here is drawn.
