Twitch streamer banned after bizarre 'queef' clip goes viral

Twitch streamer ItsPinkie has been suspended from the platform, shortly after a clip of her ‘queefing’ on stream went viral on social media. It’s unclear if this directly caused the ban, but the streamer has alluded to it.

Twitch’s community guidelines provide a set of content rules which streamers must abide by, but with millions of streamers and so much content, not everything will fit neatly into one of the stipulated rules.

On March 26, ItsPinkie, a partnered streamer on the platform, was streaming to a peak of around 1,000 viewers when she showed off a peculiar talent.

It turns out that she is capable of ‘queefing on demand’ and proved it to her viewers.

Twitch bans ItsPinkie

In one of the more eyebrow-raising Twitch bans you’ll see, ItsPinkie’s channel was soon after suspended, for a total of 3 days.

After her suspension, the streamer didn’t complain, but rather Tweeted “normalize front butt flatulence.”

Confirming that the ban was only three days, Pinkie also suggested that xQc, one of the biggest streamers on Twitch, should also face a suspension for “farting into mics as well.”

Guys chill it's only a 3 day ban because twitch just HAD to please the crowds, thankfully it's during my weekend anyways!

But yeah I guess that means XQC needs to be banned too for his farting into mics as well lmao

The clip of Pinkie’s “front butt flatulence” spread like wildfire on Twitter and Reddit, with one clip amassing over 700,000 views within less than 24 hours.

Warning: Some viewers may find the clip unpleasant.

Unsurprisingly, there is no specific rule listed in Twitch’s community guidelines about this kind of thing specifically. However, there are a number of rules about “suggestive” content, and directing attention to specific body parts, which this clip may fall under.

It’s not an indefinite suspension and ItsPinkie’s partnership has not been revoked. In future, it will be best to avoid demonstrating her unique talent, however.

Twitch does not comment on community guideline violations to respect the privacy of users.
