@rtil Jeh,I forgot about their convoluted policies because I stopped updating my DA account when they limited non-paying non-premium artists to one upload a day. Regardless they have a lot of cognitive dissonance.
Certain "weird kinks" are just fine but any healthy depiction of more straight forward sex is a big no-no! I mean this isn't even overly sexual and they are reee-ing over the supposed age of a fictional person whom only exists in our imaginations. What are they smoking?
Just seems like something they could rectify with better moderation whilst allowing artists to put their own maturity ratings on their own work. At least Newgrounds figured out how to do this practically out of the gate!
Regardless,great Yoko fan-art! DA is so backwards getting in trouble there might as well be a badge of honor at this point!

I've seen much more risque content on DA. This is just an accurate representation of how Yoko looked in Gurren Lagann.
Heck, I do not even think nudity (Much less partial nudity) should be offensive in most cases as when I was an art student drawing adult naked models was no big deal. (It was practically a requirement for that class)
Let us not even delve into the issue we're here talking about a fictional character and frankly one whom was respectfully portrayed and had decent character growth.
Do people even remember being teenagers themselves? Aka,having a crush on that hawtie in class whom had already developed the right assets and furthermore flaunted them proudly? "Reality" is not this sanitized 100% politically correct construct that always plays by "our" societal norms. It's kinda pathetic that "anime" of all things has to remind us of this!
Lastly, I agree these virtue-signalers should divert their energy into trying to help real human beings in abusive or exploitative situations. Maybe "then" the world around us WOULD become a better place!

nudity in some circumstances is actually allowed on deviantart - they just have hilariously convoluted guidelines on when it is and isn't allowed. for example, you can portray a penis, but it can't be erect, and you can show a vagina, but it can't be "wet". basically, they're hugely sex-averse, probably because they're terrified of losing ad revenue or god knows what. it's stupid.
