Hopefully we'll see a lot of (real) women posting topless pics of their non-binary self. :-)
Nor are they teats. Teats ...the formal definition of the slang term tits.
teat [tēt] NOUN teats (plural noun)
a nipple of the mammary gland of a female mammal, from which the milk is sucked by the young. BRITISH a thing resembling this, especially a perforated plastic bulb by which an infant or young animal can suck milk from a bottle.
So Meta is basing its decision on a slang term. If one were to look at the law, I doubt you'd find "tit" or "tits" there.
But you will find tits in an Audubon book
And I have no problem with FB/Instagram plastering the little critters all over FB/Instagram. Teats, on the other hand ... are to be covered, just like in everyday society.
I really don't want to see a mob of ugly hairy tatted, pierced liberals (women and trans) protesting the next thing wearing pussy hats and hanging teats in the news. No, not that!
Otherwords fbook is going to allow porn to seep back on to the site. The jewbook must be losing revenue.
I bet they call it "Improved User Exeperience"
Reality: women's nipples are sex objects, men's nipples are not sex objects.
There is a reason all human groups throughout history have worn clothing. It is to limit sexual desire and sexual distraction, which is unproductive in building a civilization. Muslims carry this to the extreme, but even the most open societies tolerant of women, such as those of Northern Europe, were still modest about dress codes.
People, you cannot throw these customs and taboos into the trash without facing serious consequences. They didn't arise by accident, they were NECESSARY.
We are animals after all. A large swath of humanity readily buries this in their consciousness due to their egos.
With this comes pride, hubris, and the fall. Human nature is nature itself. Just with enough intelligence to really fuck things up. Lizard brain remains.
