Sadly, even after manual review @TeamYouTube have decided my video on #GentlemanJack is ‘unsuitable’...
Really hoping demonetisation isn’t just because it has the word ‘lesbian’ in the title!

We've passed this onto our team for more info, but we can confirm that the word 'lesbian' in the title is not the cause of the yellow icon! Monetization is determined by a combo of factors, not by one keyword–We work hard to ensure these factors are fair & non-discriminatory.

Following up–you should now see a green icon on this video! The yellow icon was a mistake by our review team. We're so sorry this happened–we've passed feedback along to them to help prevent similar errors in the future.

^^^ this is so frustrating because now Jessica will have lost out on the initial revenue from the uptake of the video. We’ve seen this so many tines. We appreciate mistakes happen... but they seem to be happening frequently to LGBTQ+ channels

If they'd just share more info w/ creators about decisions it'd still be frustrating but at least could reassure them there isn't horrendous bias going on, as right now that often seems like the most logical conclusion. Would also help smaller creators fight unfair decisions.
