There was some commotion on Twitch last week over the removal of some butt emojis. That’s why the popular video platform and community for gamers felt it was necessary to clarify its position on certain sexually-provocative emojis. According to Twitch, not all butt and orgasm emojis are created equal.
On the use of butts or “booty” emojis, Twitch explained “Drawn depictions of clothed human butts are generally ok. The same goes for drawn animal butt depictions. ‘Fruit butts’ are ok if the image is obviously a fruit.” However, Twitch is definitely not okay with “Nude human butts depictions, anuses, or pictures of an actual human or animal butt.” Twitch is also not okay with “breasts, genitalia, crotch bulges, bikinis, underwear, overt sexual innuendo,” all of which it no longer allows as emojis. However, orgasm depictions are totally fine, which is a bit strange considering Twitch itself said it prefers to avoid “overt sexual innuendo.” Peach emoji + eggplant emoji = O face emoji!
