I used to follow some art blogs on Tumblr; it was pretty good for that, and I prefer the curated approach vs. a purely user-generated approach such as e.g. Reddit or deviantart, where searching for good stuff often feels like trying to find a needle in a turdstack.

Some of this was "adult". Quite a bit of it was deleted. I stopped used Tumblr.

What I'm trying to say is: "adult" doesn't necessarily mean "porn", at least not according to Tumblr's definition (which is fine, it's their site and they get to set the rules).

The irony is that social medias let underage publish sexualized but not totally nude content but remove aggressively informationnal content from doctors, sex therapists, feminists, pelvic floor physical therapists. The fact you see genitals pictures or drawing doesn't make something pornographic.

And then you realize that millions of women and men around the world don't even know how a human body really work, potentially take wrong decisions, live an unfulfilled/disappointing sexual life all this because of lack of access to information and an history of myths and obscurantism.

It is a much bigger problem than kids looking at tits and genitals really [1]
