Sex educators are self-censoring their language online to avoid content bans on platforms like TikTok and Instagram. What do we lose when content creators rely on ‘algospeak’? @zoecunniffe.bsky.social reports:
Sex Educators Are Self-Censoring Online to Avoid Content Bans. Does it Work?
It's called 'algospeak,' and it looks like 's3x,' 'le$bian,' and 'c00chie.' Some creators swear by it, but experts say it may increase stigma.

The "pro-adoption" #superbowl ad is anti-abortion messaging in disguise 🥸
Anti-abortion extremists, like those who created this commercial, often push adoption as a replacement for abortion care. But it isn’t and never will be able to address ALL the reasons someone has an abortion.
