Okay I am MILDLY concerned. Does this include websites such as Fanfiction websites (primarily used by women) too? Or art forums (also used to a large degree by women)?

Edit: I 100% agree with banning porn that involves actual human beings, but what specifically does porn website mean? Onlyfans is technically speaking not just for porn. So are they also banning SFW creators? What about Fanfiction or Fanart websites? I personally enjoy Fanfics and Fanart, including raunchier ones, but also SFW. Do they only ban the 100% porn websites there (which I think should be better protected but not neessarily entirely locked) or also ones that are mostly made up of SFW or slightly suggestive stuff?

And the most important question to me:

What about obvious fetish content? A bunch of kids shows have very obvious fetish content and there have been multiple scandals in the past. I would honestly much rather see them prohibit fetish content, at least on the clearweb or in Media. I have come across real life pictures of feet on plates, decorated as a dinner. Does that count or do they just say "this is not suggestive, therefore it's not banned"?

I am asking this because I don't know the specifics, but I have helped female creators from france before with translations that DID produce pornographic artwork (drawn). So I am honestly wondering about them.

I understand your concern. This has been a debate in the feminist movement since the 70s. But fanfiction, art, experimental photography, writing would fall under erotica while video and photos of people in sexually explicit and violent positions would fall under pornography. I'm not sure if the French government has this nuance though.
