I recently have seen the tag nsfw has increased in porn images and video, I’m not frustrated about it but I have concerns about the direction of steemit if we let it carry on, I came across images of women uploading naked pictures for upvotes, and I find it kind of not that amusing due to the fact I don’t want steemit as a porn site, steemit doesn’t have age restrictions so user of underage can easily access it, and it could lead to a bad name for steemit as we are a growing community, I understand the nsfw tag is there for a reason but I don’t want to see the web site go under age restricted cause of the influence in porn images and loose user from using the site due to it, and have the feeling they sharing a sight where porn is a big influence.
I’ve seen people take advantage of great platforms for example Facebook and YouTube, where as twitch.tv where porn was ones influencing the sight abit and they didn’t want to see their sight go down as an online live pron sight, I know I can’t compare the two sight, but I feel there could be something better done to stop porn from influencing it as a porn sight, and using the nsfw tag to be able to upload hardcore porn images and videos
Solution
better restricting upon what is porn and inappropriate for the website
block user from accepting upvotes for showing the body in any inapropriate way
Examples of porn on steemit
I’ve covered the user name, but here is an example of what I’m showing of posting for upvotes, I’m not angry or anything just concerned about the direction, I do hope they don’t mind me using their photo, but they have it every where on the sight so I’m sure they won’t mind
(Note that the image I had used ,I have removed the image due to the fact I had not asked permission from the user to use that the image I had used ,I have removed the image due to the fact I had not asked permission from the user to useit)
The nsfw tagged full of hardcore porn
I’m sorry if I have upset anybody but this is my personal opinion

It is quite human for sex to often be at the forefront of any new platform, look at VR tech...first thing we do is put porn on it. Men and women are all a little bit voyeurs and there will always be people willing to put their naked bodies on display or perform sex acts for public consumption especially if there is money to be had from it. If the platform isn't going to censor it's content, and the content is open to any and all ages, then it is likely to end up with under-aged kids having access to both information and imagery that may be too mature for them. But then again, tumbler has plenty of publicly visible graphic content and under-aged users can get on there too. And if you google boobs or any other word you will have more than enough content to choose from to view without needing accounts and can often slip through parental controls. There will likely be an early influx of clickbait chicks plugging their sites and hoping to gain a few bucks from this site, but if people can restrain themselves from upvoting them, they will soon leave for greener monetary pastures.
These platforms and the internet in general are all about what...... freedom
What do we want more freedom when do we want it now
Dont take the red pill or was it the blue pill just dont drink the kool aid or take any pills and this will all be ok.
That’s is true and I don’t feel we as users should influence it, I know there are tones of ways to see naked picture but for steemit I don’t think we should have porn, and a number of user sure can agree, there is pornhub and those other sides, but to see them import images from porn searches to upload to steem it for upvotes, I don’t think it should be allowed, cause we could lose a lot of women users and young viewers, they look for ways to find easy money and sex sells, and if steemit doesn’t take a stand to it, it could get worst
All the people that worry about children on the site and want to attract children to the site really creep me out. Why would you want children in a social network?
There are filters and a tagging system, that if you are not looking to indulge in risqué materials you have full ability to block each and every account. There is nothing on here that is any worse than what a Google search would come up with. If I have to see flat earther and anti vaxxer posts, then it's only fair that uncensored flow of ideas encompasses everyone.
Different strokes for different folks, one mans utopia is another mans boredom and yet another's debauchery.
hahaha that true, we all got different views and what we wana see when it comes to things, hahaha but thanks for the input and your side..
If you don't like someone's content just mute them. Why force censorship? If you don't like porn don't view it. If you don't want your kids on a site with the free flow of ideas and subject matter, including porn/sex then don't let your kids on sites with porn and sex. Maybe instead of trying to get adults to bend the knee to censorship... because people don't like genitals (most likely due to dogmatic beliefes or repressed/strict tastes in regards to sex) you should be focusing your posts on shaming bad parenting instead.
Shame on you for calling out this poor girl and using her images to do so. Honestly grow the fuck up. I’m sorry if I have upset you but this is my personal opinion.
Now that you have shown me this stunning creature I will search her out and tip her for her hard work and original booby content on steemit. YES indeedy.
Because your post stuck in my craw soo much I matched your post payout in a tip to the fine model Anita whom I am assuming you didn't ask to use her images to gain post payouts on a hot topic.

That is one week of work on steemit for me as a content creator. One week I dedicated to a model whome decided to share her body tastfully with us. I want to keep Anita around. I want to keep a lot of the steemit girls around. Whom ever wants to be creative on this platform, be it sexual or not, I will reward for orginal content on this platform even if it's nsfw.
Now that account probably isn't even going to take that money its been dead for so long.... but its the principle of the thing.
I don't like people shitting on others for profit. If you didn't want drama you should have declined post payout instead of profiting on hate.
hahaha you my do as you please, it was just an opinion, like you have your own, and the great thing as humans what we have is free will, so tip her large please hahahaahhaha , but im allowed an opinion and so are you hahaha
thanks for you opinion lol
