People who censor their dog's genitals when they post pictures.

What's the reasoning there?

"Oh Tater wouldn't want people to see his penis on the internet."

"Really? He spent 5 minutes licking it in front of me just now."

This might actually be one of the funniest posts I've seen in this forum. Good job OP.

Thank you.

i mean…on one hand it is dumb but on the other hand, there’s a lot of fucked up ppl on the internet so i don’t think it’s too weird. sadly you can’t even post a pic of your dog without the possibility of some weird ass mf straight up jorkin it to that picture. it’s why i don’t post pics of my puppy online anymore

Edited

especially because if you post something uncensored and their privates are showing, there ends up being hundreds of comments acknowledging it. it’s hard to believe as an owner that it’s unnecessary to censor pet pictures when every post with uncensored parts, people are very explicitly staring at/commenting on their junk. people are freaks.

exactly! worst part is is that there’s some people that go onto subreddits where people are just posting pics of their pets, looking for pics of their privates showing-it’s so disgusting but better safe than sorry 😭

Saw a post once of a horse but it was censored because the stallion was “happy”. I didn’t mind and am glad they nicely put some oddly-placed bushes in front of him.

If it can’t be cropped, censoring is the way to go.

I didn't know this was even a thing. I'd assume this draws more attention than it detracts, given that, you know, animals are inherently naked anyway.

I assume just because people are freaks and they don't want the freaks seeing their cats balls and being weird

Honestly its probably cuz a lot of parents have complained about their "precious babehs" seeing such "horrible filth". Yes, I have seen that actual complain several times. I posted a picture of my cat that was really funny, with his one leg up in the air and looking at me, and someone complained that her kid uses facebook and would see that! Clutching the pearls and everything. Its really stupid.

Similar but niche one: when people censor the breasts/crotch of dolls (like barbie, for example.)

I get not wanting to trigger an algorithm or whatever, but i haven't seen a single doll subreddit that has an algorithm like that. They don't have nipples or genitals. Censoring them just makes it seem like they do, defeating the purpose of the censorship by making it seem sexual when it never was.

Why do ya wanna see dog dick so bad?

Haha, I mean I don't, but when someone puts a sticker over them it immediately draws the eye.

I agree, but I have also seen weird videos where that area is the focus of the video and people comment on it. Weridos exist in all shapes and forms I guess.

A pet pet peeve, nicely done.

Yeah

I’m of two minds when i see posts of animals with censored genitals. On the one hand I get that it’s a bit silly when really the animal couldn’t care less if people online saw its parts but then sometimes the comments get weirdly up in the OP’s face about it and I’m just wondering why they’re so pressed about seeing animal junk?? Its one of those live and let live situations.

Or they get incredibly weird about it and the entire top comments are just talking about red rockets like 💀 sometimes you gotta just stop dumb shit from being said before it can be said

I agree. To me it implies that they think that animal genitalia is something sexual that needs to be censored. In the same vein as Victorians covering table legs so no one would see them and be reminded of women’s legs.

Im learning new stuff about history and this is one of them,thank you ffaancy

Well it's not true, it's a joke.

People are really weird about it so that's probably why 

In the same vein as Victorians covering table legs so no one would see them and be reminded of women’s legs.

I guess you learn something new every day. That is a fascinating fact

Lol well I actually just looked into it and it’s apparently a myth so 🤷🏻‍♀️ it’s just something I’d heard a couple times. But the spirit of my comment remains.

How dare you spread a myth around on the internet/s Lol shame it's not true, the victorians were some weird pent up yet also nasty mofos

I mean they might not care but I don't want to see that

FR censorship in general suck

News felash: animals are naked all the time and they couldn't care less.

i get why the owner wouldn’t want that tho. i posted a pic of my puppy on snapchat and got a weird ass message by some rando so better safe than sorry lmao. ig it’s the same with why some ppl don’t post their kids :(

HUH, I should've known.... People are truly disturbing. Personally all my social medias are private so only the people I know can see my pictures. I'm sorry you had to experience that :(

yeah it’s genuinely so scary 😭 especially because the people could be your neighbor or someone you know…

It's gotten to a point where I'm surprised to see kids faces on my social media, I'm not a mom, but I wouldn't post my kids or I'd at least cover them. It's the sad reality...

People do this? Apparently I don't know those people and I'm okay with this state of affairs.

Similar to censoring certain words, this is often done to avoid being (shadow) banned by certain sites.

If a father can be deemed a pedo for sharing a picture of their child's no-nos to doctors, then ppl that post anything to do with pets no-nos can be deemed beastiality.

Short of some overzealous overlook, they really aren't though are they?

It just reeks of Daily Mail type scare stories. If something like that went to court, the distinction would obviously be drawn.

lol you feel so strongly about this is a pet peeve?

You really wanna see some doggy dick by the sounds of it…..

Probably the first time I’ve seen a literal pet peeve here. Bravo.

And it puts me in mind of a guy who, while watching his pal’s dog licking its genitalia who says ‘I wish I could do that’, to which the dog owning pal replied, “Give him a biscuit and he might let you!” (True story…not really.)

Growing up with pets desensitized me to it. But there’s zoophiles lurking the forums that’ll absolutely help themselves to what they consider to be “animal lewds” 🫠

I don't really understand this fear. Anything that's been uploaded to the internet has probably been masturbated to.

It's not pleasant to think about, but then I don't find myself thinking about it. If people are that way inclined, they're going to do it on things you wouldn't expect them to, so I'd much rather just upload pictures of my pets than be concerned about distant admirers.
