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!
