On Twitter Sarah Silverman shared a photo in which she stands topless in front of her bathroom mirror. She wrote that Instagram had removed the photo on the grounds that it was “obscene.”

IG took this pic down bc it was obscene. Unsexualized women’s breasts r obscene. If they’re oiled up & smashed down by, say, sexy suspenders covering just the nipples, that’s not obscene. That’s sexy!
To recap:
women’s breasts = obscene men’s breasts =not obscene. pic.twitter.com/ZlhZki9SKj

On Instagram, she made her point by sharing a censored version of the picture alongside an uncensored image of a topless man.

I praise her for doing this and hope she will continue the fight. As we all know as Nudist that the human body is nothing to be afraid of. That you Sarah!
