On September 2, 2023, YouTuber Josh "Bowblax" took to X (formerly Twitter) and accused Imane "Pokimane" of sharing "s*xualizing" content. He cited a YouTube Shorts titled, How to Eat a Banana as a Female Streamer, which was posted on the streamer's official channel, PokimaneToo. Bowblax called out the Moroccan-Canadian personality, writing:

"Poki complains about i*cel teenagers s*xualizing her and then uploads this s**t to her YouTube channel."

Imane responded to the criticisms earlier today (September 3, 2023). slamming him for not watching the 30-second clip to get the gist of the content. She remarked:

"So happy to see dumb takes like this getting cooked in the quote RTs (quote retweets). Ironically, the clip is about how I turn off the camera every time I take a bite. He couldn’t even watch a 30s clip, which ends up being a joke, before angrily tweeting, lol."

"Okay, I f**ked up here. I saw this on my shorts feed and thought it was one of those weird "Pokimane is hot" type videos from a clip channel because of the title, then was surprised when it was from Poki herself so I tweeted about it without watching the full short."
