I've always thought the argument that female nipples = OMG PORN but male nipples are fine was a stupid double standard. I recently had a couple of pictures ratings bumped by a mod to 'explicit' from 13+ because they have visible female nipples. And you know what? I'm okay with that. It's their site, and their call, and I'm not going to pitch a fit about it. To that end, though, I've decided that from now on, any time I submit ANYTHING to Weasyl involving a visible nipple, whether male or female, I'm marking it 18+ whether it's sexual in context or not, just to be fair.

I try very hard to abide by the rules and standards of whatever community I'm part of when it comes to properly marking and tagging my art. This is less a protest and more a personal pet peeve, because from my point of view, a nipple's a nipple, whether it's attached to a man or a woman or a whatever. If you're going to apply that standard to one gender, why not the other as well?
