Affected Affection (Patreon)

This wasn't the first time the tumblr AI blocked an image for me. For several of the previous stories I published it and instantly got the content flagged. The process had been annoying but painless. You click the button to send it to review, and within a minute it would be cleared and up on the site. This small post was however not flagged immediately. It wasn't until hours later I discovered that it had been flagged. I sent it to review and pretty soon after that had happened it was denied. I clearly doesn't break the rules as they are written. I think that is the really bad part of tumblr's no-nude policy. That it is unpredictable.

I have no problem not having any nudes with my stories. To begin with I didn't even have any illustrations at all, since I usually don't write based off a photo. It wasn't until I got the rejection that I looked into the photo some more. The origin is a porn photo shoot by Helix Studios. If you look carefully you can see that one guy is grabbing the others dick through the fabric of the shorts, but I can't see that being the reason.

In later rejections I guess they were tired of having to deal with appeals, so they started to introduce final verdicts right away.
