Who censored the beautiful nipnips of poor ~~Sisyphus~~Atlas?

If female nipples are still considered obscene, the same rules should apply to everyone ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I feel like the argument "If some people are wronged, everyone should be wronged!" has some flaws.

It's rather meant to show the absurdity of censoring female nipples (in a small sidenote)

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 60 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I would propose censoring female nipples with male nipples then. Since the latter need not be censored.

This is perfect

Sadly, a lot of people genuinely believe this. That all nipples should be censored/covered up.

Look up some discussions about female toplessness online. Unless you are in a queer/very progressive space, a very large number of people would support banning men from being topless too. Most common argument I've found wasn't equality but rather some people being ugly and not wanting to see them.

In that case, just ban ugly people entirely, not only their nipples.

Yeah, always better if all equally lose, instead of letting others win. Our society is doomed with a mindset like this.

You missed a great opportunity for an "Atlas shrugged" quip.

No worries: this is Atlas. S*syphus is not censored
