Facebook, Instagram allow naked breast pics for trans, non-binary people, ban remains for cis-women

Meta Oversight Board has allowed transgender and non-binary people to display their naked breasts on Facebook and Instagram. Meta has been asked to ‘free the nipples’ at its Oversight Board’s recommendation, stating that the ban on bare breasts violates ‘human rights’ of women, transgender and non-binary people. In 2016, women took to streets in the ‘free the nipple’ movement to desexualise images of bare breasts on social media platforms – Facebook and Instagram.
