“Misgendering” violates YouTube’s Guidelines, exposing genitals apparently doesn’t

Dr. Peterson summed up his thoughts on his podcast’s suspension thusly: “Your woke corporate overlords think you’re too stupid to separate wheat from chaff yourselves”

YouTube has determined that uncensored footage of male genitalia does not violate its terms of service, but “misgendering” does.

On July 2, a video by “gay sex educator” Kevin Leonardo, “Removing BUTT HAIRS Using NAIR Cream – A Visual Guide!” was brought to the attention of the TeamYouTube Twitter account. During the video, Leonardo exposes his testicles and anus while demonstrating how to use the aforementioned products.

The video was posted on June 25 and subsequently went viral as a result of widespread disgust and backlash on Twitter — it has 14 million views, nearly five times as many as Leonardo’s next most popular video, and according to reporting by The Publica, it has been disliked more than 167,000 times.
