ફેરફારનો લૉગ
પોલિસી પ્રત્યેની સમજ
અમે નગ્નતા અથવા જાતીય પ્રવૃત્તિના પ્રદર્શનને પ્રતિબંધિત કરીએ છીએ કારણ કે અમારી કોમ્યુનિટીના કેટલાક લોકો આ પ્રકારના કન્ટેન્ટ પ્રત્યે સંવેદનશીલ હોઈ શકે છે, ખાસ કરીને સાંસ્કૃતિક બેકગ્રાઉન્ડ અથવા ઉંમરને કારણે.
અમે સમજીએ છીએ કે નગ્નતાને વિવિધ કારણોસર શેર કરી શકાય છે, જેમાં વિરોધના સ્વરૂપ તરીકે, કારણ વિશે જાગૃતિ લાવવા અથવા શૈક્ષણિક અથવા તબીબી કારણોસરનો સમાવેશ થાય છે. જ્યાં યોગ્ય હોય અને આવો હેતુ સ્પષ્ટ હોય, ત્યાં અમે કન્ટેન્ટ માટે મંજૂરી આપીએ છીએ. ઉદાહરણ તરીકે, જ્યારે અમે સ્ત્રીઓના સ્તનોનાં કેટલાક ફોટાને પ્રતિબંધિત કરીએ છીએ જેમાં સ્તનની ડીંટડીનો સમાવેશ થાય છે, ત્યારે અમે અન્ય ફોટાને મંજૂરી આપીએ છીએ, જેમાં વિરોધના કૃત્યો, સ્તનપાનમાં સક્રિય રીતે રોકાયેલી સ્ત્રીઓ અને પોસ્ટ-માસ્ટેક્ટોમી ડાઘના ફોટા (કેટલીકવાર સંવેદનશીલ ચેતવણીની સ્ક્રીન અને વય-આધારિત પ્રતિબંધો સાથે લેબલ થયેલ)નો સમાવેશ થાય છે. અમે વાસ્તવિક દુનિયાની કલાને પણ મંજૂરી આપીએ છીએ જે નગ્નતા દર્શાવે છે જેમ કે ચિત્રો, શિલ્પો વગેરેના ફોટોગ્રાફ્સ (કેટલીકવાર સંવેદનશીલ ચેતવણીની સ્ક્રીન અને વય-આધારિત પ્રતિબંધો સાથે લેબલ કરવામાં આવે છે). અમે સંમતિ વગરના અથવા સગીર કન્ટેન્ટને શેર થવાથી અટકાવવા માટે જાતીય ફોટાને દૂર કરવાનું ડિફોલ્ટ રાખીએ છીએ.
આ પોલિસી હેઠળ, અમે નગ્નતા અને જાતીય પ્રવૃત્તિના વાસ્તવિક ફોટોગ્રાફ અને વીડિયો, નગ્નતા અને જાતીય પ્રવૃત્તિની AI- અથવા કમ્પ્યુટર દ્વારા જનરેટ કરેલ ફોટા અને ડિજિટલ ફોટાને દૂર કરીએ છીએ, પછી ભલે તે "ફોટોરિયલિસ્ટિક" (જેમ કે, તે વાસ્તવિક વ્યક્તિ જેવું લાગવું) દેખાય. ઉપર નોંધ કરી છે તેમ, અમે વાસ્તવિક દુનિયાની કલા અને અમુક તબીબી, શૈક્ષણિક અને જાગૃતિ-વધારતા કન્ટેન્ટ માટે સાવચેતીપૂર્વક છુટછાટ પણ આપીએ છીએ અને આ પોલિસીમાં તે વિગતવાર છે.
બાળ નગ્નતા સંબંધિત કન્ટેન્ટને બાળ યૌન શોષણ, દુરુપયોગ અને નગ્નતા પરના અમારા કોમ્યુનિટી સ્ટાન્ડર્ડમાં સંબોધવામાં આવે છે.

Policy Rationale
We restrict the display of nudity or sexual activity because some people in our community may be sensitive to this type of content, particularly due to cultural background or age.
We understand that nudity can be shared for a variety of reasons, including as a form of protest, to raise awareness about a cause or for educational or medical reasons. Where appropriate and such intent is clear, we make allowances for the content. For example, while we restrict some images of female breasts that include the nipple, we allow other images, including those depicting acts of protest, women actively engaged in breast-feeding and photos of post-mastectomy scarring (sometimes labeled with a sensitive warning screen and age-based restrictions). We also allow real world art that depicts nudity such as photographs of paintings, sculptures, etc (sometimes labeled with a sensitive warning screen and age-based restrictions). We default to removing sexual imagery to prevent the sharing of non-consensual or underage content.
Under this policy, we remove real photographs and videos of nudity and sexual activity, AI- or computer-generated images of nudity and sexual activity, and digital imagery, regardless of whether it looks “photorealistic” (as in, it looks like a real person). As noted above, we also make careful allowances for real world art and certain medical, educational, and awareness-raising content, and these are detailed in the policy.

This policy has been updated to reflect increased restrictions on content with visible genitalia and visible female nipples in the context of gender confirmation surgery.
Policy Rationale
We restrict the display of nudity or sexual activity because some people in our community may be sensitive to this type of content, particularly due to cultural background or age.
We understand that nudity can be shared for a variety of reasons, including as a form of protest, to raise awareness about a cause or for educational or medical reasons. Where appropriate and such intent is clear, we make allowances for the content. For example, while we restrict some images of female breasts that include the nipple, we allow other images, including those depicting acts of protest, women actively engaged in breast-feeding and photos of post-mastectomy scarring (sometimes labeled with a sensitive warning screen).. We also allow real world art that depicts nudity such as photographs of paintings, sculptures, etc (sometimes labeled with a sensitive warning screen and age-based restrictions). We default to removing sexual imagery to prevent the sharing of non-consensual or underage content.
Under this policy, we remove real photographs and videos of nudity and sexual activity, AI- or computer-generated images of nudity and sexual activity, and digital imagery, regardless of whether it looks “photorealistic” (as in, it looks like a real person). As noted above, we also make careful allowances for real world art and certain medical, educational, and awareness-raising content, and these are detailed in the policy.

Policy Rationale
We restrict the display of nudity or sexual activity because some people in our community may be sensitive to this type of content, particularly because of their cultural background or age. Additionally, we default to removing sexual imagery to prevent the sharing of non-consensual or underage content. Restrictions on the display of sexual activity also apply to digitally created content unless it is posted for educational, humorous, or satirical purposes.
Our nudity policies have become more nuanced over time. We understand that nudity can be shared for a variety of reasons, including as a form of protest, to raise awareness about a cause, or for educational or medical reasons.
Where appropriate and such intent is clear, we make allowances for the content. For example, while we restrict some images of female breasts that include the nipple, we allow other images, including those depicting acts of protest, women actively engaged in breast-feeding and photos of post-mastectomy scarring. For images depicting visible genitalia or the anus in the context of birth and after-birth moments or health-related situations we include a warning label so that people are aware that the content may be sensitive. We also allow photographs of paintings, sculptures, and other art that depicts nude figures.We default to removing sexual imagery to prevent the sharing of non-consensual or underage content. Unless otherwise stated (such as ‘Real world art” and “Digital Imagery”), the Adult Nudity and Sexual Activity policy focuses on photorealistic imagery, which we define as an image or video that looks like a photograph or video of a real person (or event). Where it is unclear if an image or video is photorealistic, we presume that it is.
Content relating to child nudity is addressed in our Community Standard on Child Sexual Exploitation, Abuse and Nudity.

The policy is being updated to move references of bestiality from the Adult Sexual Exploitation policy to the Adult Nudity and Sexual Activity policy. It also updates language to more clearly define what is explicit sexual activity and stimulation compared to implicit sexual activity and stimulation.
Policy Rationale
We restrict the display of nudity or sexual activity because some people in our community may be sensitive to this type of content, particularly due to cultural background or age.
We understand that nudity can be shared for a variety of reasons, including as a form of protest, to raise awareness about a cause or for educational or medical reasons. Where appropriate and such intent is clear, we make allowances for the content. For example, while we restrict some images of female breasts that include the nipple, we allow other images, including those depicting acts of protest, women actively engaged in breast-feeding and photos of post-mastectomy scarring. We also allow real world art that depicts nudity such as photographs of paintings, sculptures, etc. We default to removing sexual imagery to prevent the sharing of non-consensual or underage content.
Under this policy, we remove real photographs and videos of nudity and sexual activity, AI- or computer-generated images of nudity and sexual activity, and digital imagery, regardless of whether it looks “photorealistic” (as in, it looks like a real person). As noted above, we also make careful allowances for real world art and certain medical, educational, and awareness-raising content, and these are detailed in the policy.
