This is more than "just banning porn" like I've seen some tags suggesting. Going as far to ban things like "foot pics" creates an extremely slippery slope.
Adult toys like dildos, vibrators, anal, plugs, sex dolls, and fleshlights are now banned on Etsy. But what this will also probably include is gender affirming items like packers because it can easily be misconstrued as a dildo. Are breast forms going to be safe or are those going to be taken down as prohibited items?
Further bans include language around sexualizing a familial relationship so anything about MILF/DILF is prohibited along with their examples "daddy's slut" and "choke me mommy"
Does this mean those fun Man I Love Frog (MILF) joke shirts are also going to be banned? What about a mug that says #1 Sexy Dad Award?
Any time there is a adult content ban/crackdown minority groups will be targeted the most, so kink and queer shops will have much more items being removed.
With this announcement I'm highly considering closing my shop in protest and solidarity with other creators. I don't currently make any adult content listed here but I'm a transgender queer artist and these rules are the first of many that threaten the inclusion of others.
