- Do you think the “nudity in art, such as sculptures and illustrations” part possibly covers also erotic fanart/drawings, or just, idk, classical illustrations of naked deities and the like?
in my opinion, going off past experience with this kind of thing:
in theory, this will be like DevArt’s policies about n sfw adult content I imagine: ‘tasteful nudes’ that be counted as ‘artistic’ are okay, but Doing the Do will not be okay. educational content about sexy stuff will be okay, but visual aids will not be okay.
in practice:
- images of naked (cis white) women will be okay, but everything else will get a banhammer.
- same sex romantic content will be far more likely to be removed than anything interpreted to be opposite sex romantic content.
- images of transgender bodies will be far more likely to be removed than images of cisgender bodies.
- educational content about sex will get removed just as often as any other content about sex no matter what the context
- content of any rating about LGBTQIAPN+/queer relationships will be treated as sexually explicit. content about straight relationships will not.
- content of any rating about transgender/nonbinary/genderqueerness physiological changes/feelings and/or experiences will be treated as sexually explicit.
- informational content about uterus/vagina/ovary reproductive systems will be treated as sexually explicit, as will anything about sexual development & awareness during puberty – particularly if related to non-straight/non-cismale feelings
- people between the ages of 13 and 17 will not be allowed to talk about their own experiences irt sexual feelings, etc because all content that acknowledges minors can experiences sexual desire or interests will be treated as cp. (reminder that just b/c minors can experience these feelings doesn’t mean they can consent to sex, especially with an adult.)
- 100% black & white treatment of potentially sexual content ensues. any attempt to elucidate the differences between adult n sfw content vs cp vs fictional depictions of csa vs l0li vs darkfic mentions of sexual abuse vs noncon vs rape fantasy vs …. you get the point … will be removed.
tl;dr: when a platform as big as tumblr says ‘no n sfw’, it inevitably enforces existing sociopolitical boundaries on what’s okay and not okay – which means the LGBT+/queer community, women (trans, cis, or otherwise), and young people suffer the most.
- Should artists back up their nsfw works and move them somewhere else asap, if they haven’t done that already?
hell fucking yes.
