Facebook has changed its rules to allow users to post photos
of breastfeeding. Following a major online campaign called #freethenipple, it
has been revealed the social network changed its policy - but has not explained
why, Dailymail reports.
Mothers took to the internet to complain after it was
discovered breastfeeding photos were being banned. Today it emerged Facebook has changed the policy, updating a
question in the sites help section to read: 'We agree that breastfeeding is
natural and beautiful and we're glad to know that it's important for mothers to
share their experiences with others on Facebook.
A US parenting blogger who is delighted about the new
development said, Facebook is slowly but surely realizing that women, or at
least breastfeeding mothers at this time, are allowed to live in their own skin
and share images of themselves topless (and breastfeeding) without being
deleted for nudity.'
