The twitch boob meta always fascinated me. It's literally trivial to not watch thirst streams if you don't like thirst streams. But people on the internet get so fucking upset about it, and I assume at least 100% of them consume actual porn.

For me it's how popular and accessible twitch is for kids.

I've never really used twitch for anything except getting drops for games (160p and muted lol) but every time I see titty streamers getting recommended despite never watching any

Yeah I guess I don't really give a shit what other people's kids do

You may want to. You will eventually be interacting with them. Or your kids will.

I am not responsible for ridding the world of maladjusted assholes. I simply do not have the energy.

If there is no other imperative for caring about something beyond "but what about the poorly supervised children?" then that thing is generally going straight to the bottom of my concern list. If the worst thing that poorly supervised children get into is cleavage on twitch, then I'd actually call that a pretty massive win.

How will 14 year olds accidentally seeing a boob on twitch instead of doing what most 14 year olds do by actively searching out porn-esque content going to turn them into a person I dont want to interact with?
