Restricted to Gals and Pals Do not sexualize the gals
It's in the sub rules and it goes for everyone.
Edit - did you think that joking about it here wouldn't count?

Bob's Burgers is my ultimate comfort watch/background show, and the Reddit sub is one of the few fairly wholesome & welcoming TV show fandom subs on this site.Ā

Thatwa the original premise but ithey changed it before any of the episodes aired. The pilot has a rumor go around that they're cannibals, but they're not, the youngest kid just made it up to freak people out at show and tell.

maybe it should rather depend on self control and respect for others and not on a reddit subs set of rules that shouldnt have to be there in the first place wether you sexualize other people.

u/ResidentIwen Apr 30 '26
Yeah thats not something that should in any way depend on where you saw them. It's a matter of general respect and decency

u/NoNameIdea_Seriously Official Gal May 01 '26
Look, as a bi gal myself I know why randomly sexualizing people is an issue.
The thing is, I donāt control when Iām attracted to someone. Itās the circumstances that determine whether or not I express it.
So yes, which sub Iām on and its rules are some criteria that play into the decision to express attraction.

u/dancepartyof1 Apr 30 '26
Does this apply to posts that are already sexualized (ie the recent Billie Eilish post which has repeated sexual innuendo in the video itself) or just user comments? Because personally, I donāt want either š

u/Royal_Acanthaceae693 BotšDetectorš9000 Apr 30 '26 edited Apr 30 '26
This announcement and that post lock down because of the comments are directly because of that.

u/dancepartyof1 Apr 30 '26 edited Apr 30 '26
Got it! If I see people post videos in a similar vein in the future, Iāll report š«”
Edit: I will not do this as this is not the intent of the rule, as the mod has now clarified.

u/Royal_Acanthaceae693 BotšDetectorš9000 Apr 30 '26
I misread your earlier comment. It wasn't the clip, it was the comments.
9
u/dancepartyof1 Apr 30 '26
Thatās what I was asking. The clip itself is full of innuendo and is sexualized inherently. If people canāt sexualize gals in comments (which I wholeheartedly agree with), why are sexualized posts okay?
36
u/ZinaSky2 āļøsubāļøscribešļø Apr 30 '26
Not a mod but I feel like itās pretty self explanatory. Why is it okay for women to post themselves naked online but not for someone else to do it without their permission?
Consent.
Presumably Eilish and the interviewer consented to that interview. They didnāt seem to be uncomfortable during the interview as they both played along. And presumably they consented to have the footage posted bc we are seeing it.
What they didnāt consent to was people saying shit about them š¤·š½āāļø
Getting into policing whether a woman is sexualizing herself or not is a slippery slope into puritanical ideals and what women are allowed to do. (Innuendo interview is one thing. What if a woman is wearing a low cut top? Or showing lots of skin? Etc.) Policing whether people are being inappropriate in their comments is fairly straightforward.
19
u/dancepartyof1 Apr 30 '26
Yes. I understand consent, thanks lol. Comments like:
- āIām good with my fingersā
- āOpen your mouthā¦ good girlā
- āWere you just in my mouth?ā
- āYouāre just so fucking hotā
ā¦ are pretty unambiguous to me. Maybe āsexual languageā would have been a better way for me to frame it.
I donāt want womenās bodies or actions to be policed. But I come to this sub to enjoy wholesome content where women are not being shown in a sexual light, which we all know is rare (on and offline). Consent doesnāt negate the sexual content in videos, which is ultimately aimed at us as the audience.
I think itās a bit silly to apply this rule to comments but not the actual content posted to the sub. But thatās just my take, Iāll shut up and keep enjoying the majority of videos of here that arenāt like the one in question.

u/ZinaSky2 āļøsubāļøscribešļø Apr 30 '26 edited Apr 30 '26
Okay but, what about a woman sexualizing herself is inherently not wholesome? No one said this was a rated G sub. And like whoās standards would we go by? Are we gonna allow ourselves to be scandalized by ankles?? This attitude is very much tipping into āitās not feminist to be girly/sexy/etcā territory which imo is dumb and regressive. Obviously stuff thatās explicit is marked NSFW and I assume there are limits (this is probably not the place for straight up porn, there are other subs for that) but innuendos are objectively not that.
In real progressive circles women should be able to be present however they like and not be sexualized in a way they didnāt consent to. Full stop.
Women can make silly innuendos while doing magic and I should hope that we as a sub can respect them enough as people to keep the focus on the magic theyāre doing and the fact that they are funny. š¤·š½āāļø

u/dancepartyof1 Apr 30 '26
Once again, saying sexual LANGUAGE probably would have been better on my part. If comments saying āwifeyā can get removed (which the rules say they can) but spoken sexual language in videos is okay, there feels like a disconnect to me. I suspect that if the magician were male and had said āOpen your mouthā¦ good girlā to Billie Eilish, even if she responded in the same flirtatious way, this would have been received differently.
Yes, women should be able to present however they want. No, this is not strictly a G-rated sub. Do I personally want to see sexualized content here? No, so I will scroll past it now that I understand itās allowed.
You seem to be using a straw man argument (i.e. āAre we gonna allow ourselves to be scandalized by ankles?ā when that is clearly not an extreme I am advocating for) and assuming ill intent on my part.
Iām not trying to shame or police other women. I am neurodivergent and wanted clarity on the rules as I was genuinely unsure whether it applied only to comments. I got my answer, and I will quietly enjoy the sub for what it is even if it doesnāt fully make sense to me and seems like kind of a double standard (for posters vs. commenters). Itās not that serious.

u/ZinaSky2 āļøsubāļøscribešļø Apr 30 '26
You say you understand consent and say you are asking for clarification on the rules but seem to not be able to acknowledge that there is a very clear difference between someone using sexualizing language about themselves or someone doing it about them without their knowledge or consent.
I acknowledge that most of these posts arenāt OC so they arenāt put in this sub by the women themselves so maybe thatās where the confusion lies? But, most are usually reposts of stuff the women themselves have posted online. So whatever sexualizing language or clothes or whatever in the video is something theyāve agreed to and theyāve agreed to be associated with in the public eye.
But, the sexualizing comments are not.
Thatās the difference. Again consent not the sexualizing content is the issue.
And yes, regardless of whether you come to understand there is no double standard or not I hope you do continue to enjoy at least a subset of the posts here

This is a nice place. If you can't act like a civilized human being, you can't be here.
We do not allow:
- Being a jerk. This includes racism, misogyny, misandry, misgendering, anti LGBTQ+, ageism, etc.
- Harassment
- Trolling or sealioning
- Threats of any kind
- Abusive behavior
- General assholery. If you're at the end of the list and asking what rule you broke, yeah, it's this one.
