NAME: Lewis Burton
CENSORSHIP: Shadow & content ban

What reason was given for your ban?

Nudity.

Why do you think your post(s) was censored?

I am a fat femme gender non-conforming person. Why is it ok for cis-men to be topless and show off their bodies but the moment I as a plus size, feminine presenting person can’t?

My posts are removed and taken down. It’s hypocritical and ridiculous.

Were you able to appeal and what was the response?

Yes and they put it on Facebook instead, so stupid!

What effect has your experience of censorship had on you?

I got shadow banned and my posts were not seen by anyone for 6 weeks or more, this has happened on multiple occasions since the content ban.

What’s one thing you want people to know about this topic?

Stop censoring trans bodies! Stop censoring femme bodies! Stop censoring all bodies!
