Show Topic

In this episode of COL Drag Race ‘T-Time’, we’re finally at THE FINALE!! Gary and Damon have crossed the finish line! As all of the season 11 queens return, we watch with bated breath as one queen lip syncs her way to become the next drag superstar!! Find out which queen snatched the crown.
In this episode of Cubs Out Loud, we are joined again by Daddy Hadrian to talk about current events in social media. Earlier last week, Tumblr decided to ban NSFW content as of December 17th and Facebook has changed its terms regarding “sexual expression”. The guys discuss how this impacts both themselves and the community at large.
Verizon owned Tumblr has announced they’re banning NSFW content starting Dec 17th. [Oath Inc. is a subsidiary of Verizon Communications that serves as the umbrella company of its digital content subdivisions, including AOL and Yahoo!. Verizon acquired AOL on June 23, 2015 and Yahoo!’s operating business on June 13, 2017. Within Oath, AOL and Yahoo! maintain their respective brands.]
What do we think of this policy/content change?
Does anyone know the numbers? As in, what %s of user accounts/posts are NSFW vs SFW.
As noted in Section 8 of our Community Standards (Sexual Exploitation of Adults), people use Facebook to discuss and draw attention to sexual violence and exploitation. We recognize the importance of and want to allow for this discussion. We draw the line, however, when content facilitates, encourages or coordinates sexual encounters between adults. We also restrict sexually explicit language that may lead to solicitation because some audiences within our global community may be sensitive to this type of content and it may impede the ability for people to connect with their friends and the broader community.
Do not post:
Content that attempts to coordinate or recruit for adult sexual activities including but not limited to:
Filmed sexual activities
Pornographic activities, strip club shows, live sex performances, erotic dances
Sexual, erotic, or tantric massages
Content that engages in explicit sexual solicitation by, including but not limited to the following, offering or asking for:
Sex or sexual partners
Sex chat or conversations
Nude images
Content that engages in implicit sexual solicitation, which can be identified by offering or asking to engage in a sexual act and/or acts identified by other suggestive elements such as any of the following:
Vague suggestive statements, such as “looking for a good time tonight”
Sexualized slang
Using sexual hints such as mentioning sexual roles, sex positions, fetish scenarios, sexual preference/sexual partner preference, state of arousal, act of sexual intercourse or activity (sexual penetration or self-pleasuring), commonly sexualized areas of the body such as the breasts, groin, or buttocks, state of hygiene of genitalia or buttocks
Content (hand drawn, digital, or real-world art) that may depict explicit sexual activity or suggestively posed person(s).
Content that offers or asks for other adult activities such as:
Commercial pornography
Partners who share fetish or sexual interests
Sexually explicit language that adds details and goes beyond mere naming or mentioning of:
A state of sexual arousal (wetness or erection)
An act of sexual intercourse (sexual penetration, self-pleasuring or exercising fetish scenarios)

In this episode of Cubs Out Loud, the guys talk about the concept of body positivity. With recent developments such as the Arrested Movement photography series and the topic of male body image issues, being body positive is definitely up for current discussion and debate. But, what is it and what does it look like? Listen in as the cubs give their thoughts and feelings on this somewhat new notion. Are you body beautiful?
Re: COL470: The Porn Factor – Chris Green: Really enjoyed this one! I grew up in the same era, having the internet (dialup, newsgroups, bbs sites) around high school. No one mentioned another of the old-school methods of discovering porn; squinting at the blurred images on scrambled, adult TV channels!

Re: COL470: The Porn Factor: Woofy – remember back in boarding school, boys would put pictures of naked women on their walls and it was super cool. I did it with big hairy men and suddenly no one visited my room. What is this injustice.
