Will Amouranth quit Twitch after bans and hot tub harassment?

Kaitlyn “Amouranth” Siragusa has been one of the hottest topics on Twitch for the past year due to a number of controversies, her sexually suggestive content, and the drama surrounding the hot tub meta that she helped to perpetuate. 

While Amouranth has consistently stood up for female streamers who choose to create sexually suggestive content, though a recent statement on her personal Twitter pointed to the risks that come with it.

“If anything, sexy streamers basically dive on the grenade that is offensively creepy and coomery people,” Amouranth said.

The hot tub meta has continued to get criticism from not only the Twitch community, but from the most popular personalities on the platform. Streamers Felix “xQc” Lengyel, Asmongold, and Jaryd “Summit1g” Lazar have been very vocal about their dislike of the hot tub meta as well as the latest tights and ASMR meta, blaming Twitch for allowing content that many feel is inappropriate.
