Introducing a network of subreddits that promise Context Appropriate Sexuality (CAS)
Hello all! After some very helpful discussion in this thread, I am ready to introduce the CAS Network. This is all a work in progress and welcome to suggestions and concerns. Please let me know if you know how to word any of this better!
In addition to the individual subreddit rules, participating subreddits have had their sidebars updated with a link to the below information:
CAS Network Guidelines:
- No hypersexualization, including pin-ups, T&A posing, unrealistic proportions, fetish content.
- All comments must be phrased respectfully.
Q: What does CAS mean?
A: CAS stands for Context Appropriate Sexuality. Subreddits that participate in the network make a promise to disallow art submissions that are hypersexualized.
Q: What does hypersexualized mean?
A: Hypersexualization is when a situation that has nothing intrinsically sexual about it contains sexualized subjects.
Examples of hypersexualization include but are not limited to:
Costuming: Warriors who are sexualized in a non-battle ready way, reasonable dress situations where a character is in out-of-place skimpy or revealing fashion.
Posing: Character posing that unnaturally highlights breasts or buttocks, AKA fan-service/T&A/broken spine tropes.
Body proportions: Some body types are much more commonly represented in fantasy, slice-of-life, and sci-fi art than they are IRL. Such body types include the common trope of hypersexualizing large breasts. While all body types are welcome, this sub may not accept characters with commonly sexualized rare proportions, such as very muscular women with fatty breasts, or large breast/small waist/small hip ratio, AKA anime proportions.
Anthro: Anthro characters with breasts or other sexualized soft bits, or pieces that highlight undercarriages or bums in a weird way.
Fetish content: Content that weirdly highlights crying, assault, vore, very young characters, etc, even if it is "SFW"
Pin-ups: These are by definition of a sexual context, however not in the spirit of the network.
Subreddits in the CAS Network:
/r/ImaginaryBestOf - Subscribe for the best posts from the Imaginary Network, once per day, every day, forever.
/r/ReasonableFantasy - Art featuring women in costuming not defined by sexuality.
/r/WholesomeFantasyArt - Art with a wholesome theme.
/r/WholesomeSliceOfLife - Art celebrating wholesome depictions of everyday activities by characters in real or imagined settings.
/r/CharacterArt - High-quality, still-image, single-panel paintings and drawings celebrating real and imagined characters that are not hypersexualized.

Original Content Ana Viola, by me
Race: Half Solari
Origin: Crime Lord
Class: Rogue
Archetype: Surgeon/Gunhawk
Deity: None đŸ˜”
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Born into poverty and never knowing her Father, Ana was pushed into a life of crime from an early age, as many Dark Shore urchins are in the city of Marina. As she aged though, her mother's genetic condition, Drowner's Lung, began to worsen, and she was forced to up the ante from petty thievery to illicit smuggling and high stakes heists in order to afford treatment. When she found a flyer for an expedition into the ruined city of Joyalantte, she was all too eager to set forth and claim it's untouched treasures, both for personal gain, and so her mother could live.
