د پالیسۍ منطق
لکه څنګه چې يېد لویانو جنسي استحصال پالیسي کې یادونه شوې، خلک د جنسي تاوتریخوالي په اړه د بحث او پام اړولو لپاره زموږ خدمتونه کاروي او ناوړه ګټه ترې پورته کوي. موږ د دې بحث په ارزښت پوهيګو او اجازه یې هم ورکوو. موږ د جنسي کارکونکو د حقونو مدافع او د جنسي کارکونکيو په اړه د مقرراتو بحث ته هم اجازه ورکوو. خو موږ هغه مهال کرښه باسو کله چې منځپانګه د لويانو ترمنځ جنسي اړیکو یا تجارتي جنسي خدمتونو ته لاره هواروي، یا کله چې منځپانګه فحش یا جنسي منځپانګې غوښتنه یا وړاندیز کوي. موږ دا کار د دې لپاره ترسره کوو، ترڅو د هغې راکړې ورکړې د اسانتیا مخه ونیسو، چې ممکن په کې قاچاق، جبري او غیر موافق جنسي عملونه شامل وي.
موږ له جنسي پلوه هغه لوڅه ژبې هم محدودوو، چې ممکن د جنسي غوښتنې لامل شي، ځکه چې په نړیواله ټولنه کې زموږ ځینې لیدونکي ممکن له دې ډول منځپانګې سره حساس وي او دا ممکن د خلکو لپاره د خپلو ملګرو او پراخې ټولنې سره د اړیکو د وړتیا مخه ونیسي.
موږ اجازه نه ورکوو:
هغه منځپانګه چې د فحشا لپاره د اړیکو طریقې وړاندې کوي، غوښتنه کوي یا یې چمتو کوي، کوم چې د پیسو یا ارزښتناک شی په بدل کې د جنسي اړیکو لپاره د ځان غوښتنه کول یا وړاندې کول دي چې د لاندې بنسټونو لخوا تعریف شوي دي:
  • د جنسي مخامخ کېدلو وړاندیز یا غوښتنه (د بېلګې به توګه د اېسکورټ خدمتونه، جنسي/ شهواني ماساژ، جنسي چټونه/ خبرې اترې، د جنسي میل/ سلطې خدمتونه)
  • د فحشا لپاره د عامو اصطلاحاتو کارول د شتون، قیمت یا د پیسو یا د ارزښتناک شی، موقعیت یا د اړیکو د معلوماتو لپاره د معاملې د هر ډول سیګنال غوښتنه یا وړاندیز سره یوځای کول
  • د پیسو یا ارزښتناک شی لپاره د معاملې د قیمت یا کوم سیګنال سره یوځای په جنسي غوښتنې کې ښکیلتیا
  • د جنسي اړیکو یا شریکانو انځورول یا یې داسې یادونه کول چې د قیمت سره یا د پیسو یا جنسي معاملو کومې نښې لري.
  • د دریمې ډلې د سوداګریز جنسي کار لپاره د نورو خلکو استخدام یا وړاندیز د انساني استحصال د پالیسۍ پوښښ لري.
هغه منځپانګه چې د جنسي اړیکو لپاره د اړیکو د لارو چارو وړاندیز، غوښتنې یا چمتو کولو له لارې جنسي غوښتنې کې ښکیل وي لکه:
  • جنسي اړیکه یا هڅونه
  • د خولې له لارې جنسي اړیکه
  • جنسي فېتشونه
  • د سکس چټ یا خبرې اترې
  • جنسي یا تحریک کونکي مساجونه
  • شہواني/تحریک کونکي نڅا یا بربنډول
  • د لوڅو انځورونو شریکول (لکه لوڅ انځورونه، جنسي ویډیوګانې)
هغه منځپانګه چې د فحش منځپانګې د ترلاسه کولو لپاره د اړیکو غوښتنه کوي، وړاندیز کوي یا یې طریقې چمتو کوي یا د فحش لرونکو ویب پاڼو کارونکي نومونه یا لینکونه لري.
جنسي څرګنده ژبه چې د لاندې مواردو په اړه واضح یا ګرافیکي توضیحات کاروي:
  • تناسلي غړي،
  • د جنسي لوڅوالي حالتونه (د بیلګې په توګه لوندوالی یا د جنسي غړي جګېدل)
  • جنسي اړیکې
  • پورته هغه منځپانګه شامله نه ده چې په طنزیه، ټوکو شرایطو یا د جنسي لعنت په توګه شریکه شوې وي.
موږ هغه منځپانګې ته اجازه ورکوو چې په یو بل ډول د دې پالیسۍ له لوري پوښښ ورکول کېږي، کله چې د محکومیت، تعلیمي، پوهاوي د لوړولو یا خبري راپورنو په برخو کې پوسټ کېږي. موږ د پالیسۍ لاندې د جنسي کړنو په اړه بحث کول هم نه منع کوو. په هرصورت، دا د روغتیا او هوساینې له پالیسۍ سره سم د 18 کلونو څخه پورته لویانو پورې محدود کیدی شي، ترڅو د کوچنيانو لپاره د عمر سره سمې تجربې اسانه کړي.
د لاندې منځپانګې لپاره موږ د منځپانګې د لیدو وړتیا هغو لویانو ته محدودوو چې عمرونه یې 18 کلن او له هغه ډير دي:
  • هغه منځپانګه چې د جنسي کړنو یا تجربو په اړه بحث کوي
  • هغه منځپانګه چې د لویانو د ګډون ویب پاڼو کارن نومونه، لینکونه یا لوګو لري
  • په طنزیه یا ټوکو په شرایطو کې جنسي څرګنده ژبه، په شمول د جنسي استعارو
  • له جنسي پلوه وړاندیز کوونکې ژبه چې جنسي اړیکو ته اشاره کوي
د لاندې ټولنې د معیارونو په موخه موږ د پلي کولو لپاره اضافي معلوماتو او/یا شرایطو ته اړتیا لرو:
  • په ځینو مواردو کې به موږ هغو منځپانګو ته اجازه ورکړو چې ممکن پر یو بل ډول د ټولنې له معیارونو څخه سرغړونه کوي، البته هغه وخت چې دا معلومه شي، چې منځپانګه طنزیه بڼه لري. منځپانګې ته به یوازې هغه وخت اجازه ورکړل شي، کله چې د محتوياتو سرغړونکي عناصر طنزي توکو یا یو بل شي یا بل چا ته منسوب شي، ترڅو دوی مسخره یا پرې نیوکه وکړي.

Policy Rationale

We recognize the importance of and allow for this discussion.We also allow for the discussion of sex worker rights advocacy and sex work regulation. We draw the line, however, when content facilitates sexual encounters or commercial sexual services between adults. We do this to avoid facilitating transactions that may involve trafficking, coercion and non-consensual sexual acts.
We also restrict sexually-explicit language that may lead to sexual 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:

  • A state of sexual arousal (wetness or erection)

Recent media coverage and online conversation has revealed that our Sexual Solicitation policy is not entirely clear and has led to confusion and concern.
To that end, we have revised the language to clarify our policy. Under the policy, implicit sexual solicitation is not allowed. We define implicit sexual solicitation as an offer or ask to engage paired with at least one suggestive element, which would not violate on its own.
Deciding where to draw the line is always a challenge and we welcome feedback on how we can continue to improve and update our policies. Our approach has been to ensure Facebook is not a place for coordinating sexual activity.
Policy Rationale
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.

This policy, which disallows sexual solicitation, has long been in place under the headings of “Sexual Exploitation of Adults” and "Adult Nudity and Sexual Activity" (Section 14). We know sexual solicitation isn’t necessarily exploitative, and that the language we use and their organization under our Community Standards matter a lot. We also heard from our review teams that the policy as previously written wasn't clear, so we sought to distinguish the solicitation policy with its own heading (See Section 15: Sexual Solicitation) and removed this language from the Sexual Exploitation of Adults section of our Community Standards.
This policy change went through our formal policy process in 2018, which included getting external input from a number of stakeholders.
The policy covers 1) coordination and recruitment of sexual activities, 2) explicit sexual solicitation, and 3) implicit sexual solicitation, 4) offers or asks for pornography or sexual partners, and 5) sexually explicit language.
