Twitch Bans Shirtless Streaming For Both Genders

Twitch has updated its code of conduct to emphasize its aversion to all forms of nudity, including male torsos.

" Wearing no clothing or sexually suggestive clothing - including lingerie, swimsuits, pasties, and undergarments - will most likely get you suspended," the updated code of conduct reads. "As well as any full nude torsos*, which applies to both male and female broadcasters."

Twitch recommends focusing the webcam on your face if it is too hot for you to wear a shirt.

"Nerds are sexy, and you're all magnificent, beautiful creatures, but let's try and keep this about the games, shall we?"

Twitch doesn't monitor stream for dress code violations. However, it investigates content flagged by users as inappropriate and determine repercussions in accordance with the code of conduct.
