    I agree with you but this is more of a societal issue and not necessarily a Twitch issue. I think Twitch following the standards set by society was reasonable however them pushing to improve upon those is absolutely welcome.

      I disagree. At one point in time it was society saying black people couldn’t eat with white people and it was people and companies willing to push that boundary that changed this.

      We are all members of society and it is on us to constantly push back against the unfair traditions in our community.

        Did you just equate Jim Crow with not being able to see titties on a mainstream streaming site?

        You know you can see titties on other streaming sites, right?

          This is just a bad strawman. People want equality, not titties. Jim Crow is only used as a analogy to show that pushing back on inequalities is a good thing, and “we’re just following societal standards” isn’t a really good excuse.
