Not only are female breasts legal where I live IRL, many Lemmy communities consider them SFW under non-sexual conditions. Godspeed everybody, free the nipple!
Why are women's nipples considered unacceptable anyway? It seems really sexist in my opinion to say that male nipples are acceptable but female ones aren't
It's just because of sexualixation and prude people pressuring the fuck out of those platforms. Although a bit unnecessary imho I don't mind seeing a tiddy on insta, they'll have to add a nsfw tag tho. Insta is prob going to decline into even more onlyfans advertisements
But as it's a gradual transition and cleavage, side-boob, underboob, straps and pasties have become normalized, the nipple is the only part left to define as the subject of the "issue", as it's the most distinguishable, visually separate and definable part.
The conservative prudes would prefer a more comprehensive ban, but struggle immensely in legally defining the line of "okay/not okay" in a court of law. They find it much easier to enforce certain clothes as legally obligatory for women, but there's very little support for that kind of oppression in most parts of the world.
and when someone transitions... it's ... the /same/ nipple, but it used to be illegal and unseemly - but now is perfectly legal to show everywhere ,,, strange.....
I've seen a surgery documentary on TV about transitioning. They showed the surgeon doing the breast surgery. It was all uncensored, nipples and all, until the very second the doc put the silicone bag under the skin. Then they pixelated the nipple. The same nipple they were showing all along.
