I would like to see 4chan publicly state that it has this anti-gay policy, instead of hiding behind 'random' banning. I have noticed that the article has been scrubbed of the 'fags' references, which is nice to see, but the site's philosophy is still clearly one that does not allow full participation by gay and bisexual men. The promise of 'random' banning is a smokescreen. Posting images of male pornography involving real men results in banning from the 'random' board. Only one board is devoted to gay male images and they must be softcore yaoi illustrations, which is a niche that mainly appeals to heterosexual women. 4chan has several boards devoted to heterosexual pornography, including 'Hardcore', 'Sexy Beautiful Women', and 'Yuri'.
