Guardian against the Facebook ''No Nipples rule"

I was really shocked myself when I saw the no pictures of breastfeeding that might show nipple in the Facebook rules for pictures! I am SO glad that the guardian has pointed out how RIDICULOUS this is! I personally do not want to share pictures of me BF but why should it be banned? Amazingly foreplay pictures are allowed! Anyway, Its a fantastic article...........

Heres the link, and if you up for it, you can send your BF pictures to the Guardian and they going to post them on FB!

They've chickened out now - got so many photos (duh that was the point) that they don't want to upset FB by posting them so they're on tumblr instead. The Guardian said it hoped someone from FB would see them. Gutless Angry

Oh, I just read this:

Yeah, it sounds like they had to back down for whatever reason. I can't believe people would get so hyped up about BF. Bizarre! It is so natural.

It's because FB is God these days. IMO they chickened out. To worried about having their page deactivated. What is tumblr anyway?

But facebook don't moderate pictures uploaded. The ones that get deleted are bought to their attention by other members who don't like them.

That is what bordering on pornographic pics stay (not many people seem to have a problem with them) and BF ones disappear. Because people still can't stand to see breasts being used for their natural purpose.
