Women Are Battling Censorship By Photoshopping Male Nipples On Themselves
Lately, there's a lot of controversy over gender equality, especially on social media.
Many women are sick of men being able to post topless pictures on Instagram while their breast-baring photos are deemed inappropriate and get deleted.
But now, ladies are fighting back by covering up their nipples with "acceptable" male nipples.
An artist named Micol Hebron thought of this clever idea and posted a picture of a male nipple on Facebook to protest the anti-female nudity policies on various social media platforms.
Since then, the Internet has been going nuts over her nipple photo, and now, all sorts of ladies are actually Photoshopping Hebron's male nipple over their lady parts with #MaleNipple.
Take a look at the pictures below to see this new social media trend.
