As someone who is deeply ingrained in the kink community, I am disturbed and distressed by the growing presence of non-consensual, harmful, and abusive content on FetLife.com that flagrantly violates the site's Terms of Use. Our community is based on trust, respect, and most importantly, CONSENT. Without consent, it's not kink— it's abuse.

In the last year alone, reports of harmful content have surged exponentially as per anecdotal evidence from members of the community. This constitutes a gross violation of FetLife's stated commitment to foster a safe and respectful environment. The responsibility falls on FetLife.com to implement stricter moderation and reporting measures to curb this issue, and to ensure that any reported content that contradicts their Terms of Use is rapidly expunged from the site.

Hate speech, harassment and non-consensual posts are unacceptable behaviors and have no place in a community that cherishes consent above all else. It is critical that FetLife.com takes immediate action to enforce its rules and expel users propagating harmful, non-consensual content. This is a step not only towards the safety of community members but also the integrity and continuing viability of FetLife itself.

Please add your signature to this petition to demand that FetLife.com take immediate action in enforcing their policies, banning abusive content, and safeguarding the principals our unique community was built on. Your signature matters – let it be a beacon of change.
