There will be no more butt Fortnite Twitch streams. I spoke what I wanted to say. If you’re not up to date on everything Twitch related, streamers are projecting their gameplays onto green-screened body parts, typically private areas like breasts and bums. Since standard picture-in-picture seems to be too boring these days. But Twitch is officially banning “content that focuses on clothed intimate body parts such as the buttocks, groin, or breasts for extended periods of time” as of March 29 in an effort to put a halt to its streamers’ antics.
In a writeup on the trend, Kotaku explained that it all started when controversial streamer Morgpie projected her Fortnite gaming session on a closeup of her behind. After that, other streamers followed suit, overlaying their games on body parts both real and fictional, like anime thighs or anime boobs breasting boobily on screen while they’re playing. Now, boobs and butts streaming is out. Don’t get caught up on the “clothed intimate body parts” wording, as well — of course, their unclothed versions are also prohibited, as per Twitch’s policy that doesn’t allow users to broadcast or upload “content that contains depictions of real or fictional nudity, regardless of the medium used to create it.”
Twitch had previously revised its guidelines due to Morgpie’s activities on its platform. The streamer went live with a well-positioned camera that suggested she was gaming topless, shortly after Twitch relaxed its rules for sexual content on the platform. It gave rise to a meta of streamers pretending to be unclothed, prompting the platform to rescind those policy changes and ultimately to bar users from pretending to be fully or partially nude in their streams.
