Plans on going from YT to porn hub

So the last dance vlog I posted to youtube was initially flagged as a strike for sexual content and then removed, leaving me with a penalty for the next 3 months. In this time I read through their policies and truly see that I'm not really a good fit for youtube, since they are explicit about banning "fetish" content as well as dancing that emphasizes certain body parts (not explicitly written out in their policies). I don't think I can get around the "fetish" nature of the videos that I put out, even when there's nothing overtly sexual being shown. So I'm thinking about putting the videos I was originally going to put on youtube on pornhub, so it can still be viewed for free, as long as you verify your age. So just an update that I'm still figuring out a place to put my videos that are not overtly sexual for people to see for free. I just need another week or two before I get it all sorted out.

yet rappers can upload videos with them rapping in front of copious amounts of weed while degrading women. All you doing was dancing.....

I'd totally agree. It's super frustrating, but at the same time with latex and silicone it is fetishy and sexual to some extent. I tried contacting youtube about it and asked for ways I could still post there and was just given a strike (3 strikes and your account gets disabled). So I've got to turn to porn-sites to post things up. However, it still leaves me not knowing what to do with my dance videos (because of copyright issues, which I'm sure would be more strict on a porn site). So I'll probably keep those to youtube and possibly instagram and see how that goes.
Thanks for the message!

I've never used it from an uploader's perspective, but perhaps Vimeo could be a good alternative. Dunno, just an idea.

Sure, "fetish" content is bad, but YouTube is happy to continue providing a platform for white supremacists!

Not that it's a bad idea to have a "kid-safe" internet space, of course, because people should be able to find spaces in which they feel comfortable and won't have to see things they don't want to, but...come on. YouTube needs to think harder about what they're actually trying to do.
