‘Against community guidelines.’

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

Showing female bodies ( I already mosaic the “taboo” parts.)

Were you able to appeal and what was the response?

Yes, still removed.

What effect has your experience of censorship had on you?

More determined about my own practice which is celebrating ourselves in any colour/forms.

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

We cannot let the big corporations abuse their power over us, change takes time and every action counts.
