Porn to be sweet

OnlyFans, a digital platform that is famous only for hosting sexually explicit content, bans “sexually explicit” content. What exactly does this ban cover? It’s not entirely clear, and OnlyFans won’t release a definition that fleshed out what “sexually explicit” means until October, when the new policy goes into effect. So far, it looks like a little nudity will likely be acceptable, but many sex workers who make a living on OnlyFans will be kicked off the platform.

Why would a hugely successful business blow up their own business like this? Because he really doesn’t have a lot of choice. OnlyFans did not develop a sudden puritanical tendency – it is giving in to pressure from payment processors. Companies in certain “high-risk industries” (porn, gambling, marijuana, etc.) have always struggled to get banks and credit card companies to work with them, but it is on the verge of breaking down. become much more difficult for companies in the adult industry to start collecting payments. thanks to the new restrictions put in place by Mastercard; other payment processors should follow Mastercard’s lead.

These new restrictions, it must be said, seem laudable in theory. Mastercard wants to make sure it’s not associated with sex trafficking, revenge pornography, or child exploitation. Sensitive, right? Except that it would appear that OnlyFans thinks that fully complying with these regulations will be nearly impossible and chooses a blanket ban instead. This means that many sex workers are going to be pushed from a safe space where they can be their own boss to exploitation studios or the streets.

“For people who previously lived off studio pornography, the switch to OnlyFans meant a lot more control over security, mate choice and representation – especially important for artists of color and trans people,” said an assistant professor in gender and sexuality studies. Guardian. “This move will put control and profits back into the hands of producers. “

There is almost endless discussion about the role that big tech companies like Facebook play in the content we consume. What isn’t as much discussed, however, is the censorship power that payment processors have. This power has not gone unnoticed by right-wing and evangelical organizations such as the National Center on Sexual Exploitation (NCOSE) and Exodus Cry, which have pressured payment processors to crack down on online sex sites. While these organizations pose as a crusade against exploitation, their chilling mission is to wipe out all traces of sex from society. NSCOSE, for example, successfully campaigned for Walmart to remove Cosmopolitan magazine, which it likened to porn, from its checkout aisles. The founder of Exodus Cry, meanwhile, opposes same-sex marriage and abortion. These organizations have a deeply anti-woman mission that they disguise with anti-exploitation messages. Sadly, they were depressingly successful in convincing the Liberals to join their holy war.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying that sites like OnlyFans should be allowed to run without any restrictions. I’m also not saying that payment processors don’t have a responsibility to ensure that they don’t facilitate illegal or unethical practices. The point is that increased censorship is seldom the solution to complex problems. We should all beware of shady organizations that attempt to build Gilead under the guise of women’s liberation.

OK, maybe I was wrong about this whole censorship thing. There are some things that no one needs to see!

Crabs aren’t excited for plastic after all

You may have seen recent headlines in reputable newspapers about hermit crabs getting “sexually aroused” by plastic pollution in the oceans. It seems that there was a slight misunderstanding: the crabs were turned on by the plastic because they were hungry and thought it was food. Very funny fixes have been posted.

Mike Richards has left Jeopardy!

Richards was the guy who was tasked with finding a new facilitator for the quiz and, after careful consideration, got on the job. This caused a stir which then increased when it turned out that Richards had a habit of saying bad things. He has now resigned from the role of host. Still, I’m sure it will fail elsewhere. Guys like him usually do.

Over 400 men attack TikToker in Pakistan

A woman trying to film a TikTok video in a Lahore park has been sexually assaulted and groped by hundreds of men. The horrific incident was caught on camera and went viral; police are currently investigating. Pakistan is the sixth most dangerous country in the world for women. Women’s rights were not exactly put forward by Prime Minister Imran Khan, who recently suggested that the rape and assault was due to women not dressing modestly enough.

Afghan girls’ robotics team evacuated

The team, known as the Afghan Dreamers, made international headlines in 2017 when they were denied US visas on their way to an international robotics competition in Washington. Now the United States has ruined their exit from Afghanistan, the country is collapsing, and the girls have once again experienced a nightmare with international borders. Fortunately, the team has now been evacuated to Qatar.

Lily Cole slammed for posting very weird burqa selfies

Apparently the model and activist (every model is now an activist these days) thought she was helping women in Afghanistan or something? Either way, this seems like a good time to link to reviews of Rafia Zakaria’s new book: Against White Feminism.

The week in the petrovicarchy

Panta Petrovic was living in secluded Serbian mountain cave for almost 20 years, making only very occasional visits to the city. On one of his last excursions, he discovered that a pandemic was ravaging the world and quickly got vaccinated. “It (the virus) doesn’t pick. He will also come here, in my cave, “the 70-year-old man told AFP.
