In the current wave of live streaming on the internet, live streams remain a popular space for captivating entertainment content. With strict policies from various platforms, this recent wave of streaming has experienced a robust surge, however, it does not escape the instances of “breaking the rules” violations. Nevertheless, viewers often find themselves in lively chat rooms.
“Just when I thought it was safe to log onto Bilibili, things got intense”;
“The provocative tones from streamers make it difficult for us to concentrate”;
“Female streamers dressed in revealing outfits, speaking in suggestive tones, are leading viewers into a seductive trap or encouraging them to donate while they engage in provocative dances”…
These are some common criticisms from internet users regarding the increasingly suggestive content appearing on video platforms like Bilibili.
In fact, entering chat rooms, the sight of streamers in provocative clothing, engaging in suggestive behavior, and dancing to attract donations is not uncommon. Moreover, some popular idols, many of whom have large followings, do not hesitate to use suggestive language to draw in viewers, often sharing spicy content. One streamer even revealed that she only needed the right attire and appearance to attract an impressive $20,000 in donations (around 71 million VND).
During a live stream from the channel Bai Xue Kui, which has 54,000 followers, the streamer appeared with an anime-themed avatar dressed in provocative clothing. This individual not only maintained a continuous shaking of her body but also shared suggestive noises. Despite the minor background music, she continuously produced enticing sounds.
Moreover, the live streaming of streamer Tieu Duong Duong also attracted attention for featuring images of a woman dressed in a short skirt and provocative outfit. This streamer often wears revealing clothing, including a crop top and shorts, paired with suggestive movements. When receiving donations, she would maintain a flirtatious tone, simultaneously adding to her provocative gestures. Many internet users in the live chat have criticized her behavior in public chat frames.
Viewers have noticed that late-night streams tend to be “hotter” compared to daytime streams. Super short skirts, revealing outfits, and provocative gestures have become the norm for these late-night streaming sessions, even featuring “pregnant women” dressed in revealing outfits during their broadcasts.
After facing public backlash, some streaming accounts have been shut down, and their content has been severely restricted. If users report violations, there may be feedback and investigations into the matter, with staff promptly reviewing and processing the situation. A representative from the Kuaishou platform commented that, “most reported content is managed by robots. If a user reports, we will have staff review the relevant streams, verify the reported content, and take action based on the actual circumstances.”
