But we do not treat all nipples equally. All ladies must keep theirs under wraps as to not corrupt the fabric of social morality. As a woman who loves to sport triangle bikini tops, it is fascinating to think that the mere the 6\u201d area of a spandex triangle is the only thing that prevents me from committing public indecency. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Happen to have a nip slip in that triangle bikini top? You should be ashamed of yourself! Don\u2019t you have any sense of decency?! Don\u2019t you have any respect for yourself?! How obscene! There are children here! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Damn, I\u2019m sorry that the way God designed my body is so offensive. Absurd? Without a doubt. Blame the Creator of the Cosmos, not me. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Though we are all born with nipples &amp; live in a country that has exponentially moved closer to acknowledging gender equality, the exposure of the female nipple <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">still<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> garners disproportionately reactionary sentiments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wellvyl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Bildschirmfoto-2017-01-17-um-22.04.00.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-56653 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wellvyl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Bildschirmfoto-2017-01-17-um-22.04.00.jpg\" alt=\"genderless nipples\" width=\"1700\" height=\"1128\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>EQUALITY FOR ALL NIPPLES\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For filmmaker Lisa Esco, \u201cbare female nipples in the public forum are a symbol of <a href=\"https:\/\/wellvyl.com\/navigating-relationships-in-the-workplace\/\">true equality between the sexes<\/a>.\u00a0 It is a<a href=\"https:\/\/wellvyl.com\/navigating-relationships-in-the-workplace\/\">\u00a0<\/a>statement of <a href=\"https:\/\/wellvyl.com\/qa-with-sacred-beauty-coach-rebecca-casciano\/\">empowered ownership<\/a>\u00a0 unbound by our previous conditioned Puritanical confinements and rigidity.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">During pre-production in 2012 of her documentary, \u201cFree the Nipple\u201d, Lina Esco created the \u2018topfreedom\u2019 campaign bearing the same epithet. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0The campaign emphasizes the social acceptance of allowing men to appear <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">topless<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> in public, yet our society considers it lewd or indecent for women to do the same. This difference, Esco feels, is an unjust <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">treatment of women<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. The campaign argues it should be legally and culturally acceptable for women to bare their <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">nipples<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> in public.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Released in 2104, Esco\u2019s film is a documentary of herself running naked through the streets of New York City. During filming, Esco posted teaser clips on <a href=\"https:\/\/wellvyl.com\/could-the-culture-of-internet-trolls-be-coming-to-an-end\/\">social media platforms<\/a> donning the hashtag #freethenipple. However, Facebook removed her video clips for \u201cviolating its guidelines. Yet, #freethenipple fervor only intensified as\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/wellvyl.com\/michelle-oprah-20-20\/\">celebrities<\/a> like Rhianna, Miley Cyrus, and Chelsea Handler spoke out or bared all in support for the initiative. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThis is what we had to do in order to pave the way for equality to be talked about,\u201d Esco articulates. \u201cThere is no way the wheels would be turning unless something was going to spark it, something controversial\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to their mission, Free the Nipple is a global campaign of change, focused on equality, <a href=\"https:\/\/wellvyl.com\/oral-empowerment\/\">empowerment<\/a>, and freedom for \u201call human beings\u201d. Esco\u2019s brainchild is not solely dedicated to nipple liberation. It has become a voice for gender equality that utilizes all forms of modern media to effect change on various social issues and injustices<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. Resounding urgency emanates from their webpage, \u201cWe believe that all human beings are created equal. We believe the time for change is now. We believe that together, through one unified voice, we can affect change globally\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A naked human body is not in and of itself pornographic or scandalous. We all have one. The human anatomy is just a part of nature as is all mammals. Breasts are not the problem. Breasts are \u201ccontroversial\u201d because of our culture\u2019s unhealthy repression of nudity. When a society represses something, it is not offered respect. A society that deems any part of one gender\u2019s body as \u201clewd\u201d or as a \u201cthreat to public decency\u201d is a society that has yet to evolve its consciousness. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Furthermore, equality is the acceptance of diversity. To regard with equal vision is to honor and welcome all uniquenesses. Gender equality is not seeing both genders as the same, as if there are no differences between them. Quite the antithesis. Gender equality is about giving equal respect to all others <em>regardless<\/em> of their differences. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">My hope is that the conversation Free the Nipple has started will encourage not just the acceptance but appreciation of the diversity of breasts. When we can accept breasts out in the open, we will see more breasts and become aware that breasts are infinite in variety, size, shape, &amp; color. Finally, we will come to understand that there is <a href=\"https:\/\/wellvyl.com\/body-shaming-the-skin-youre-in\/\">no such thing as \u201cperfect breasts\u201d<\/a>.\u00a0 All breasts are equal in their distinctiveness and thus all deserve to be treated with dignity. Our own social wellness begins when we can have equipoise in our ability to respect and embrace the differences of others as well as <a href=\"https:\/\/wellvyl.com\/10-ways-to-love-yourself-abundantly\/\">love the uniqueness of our own selves. <\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>For more stories on body image, visit our BODY section <a href=\"https:\/\/wellvyl.com\/mag-search\/?wpv_post_search=body&amp;wpv_aux_current_post_id=54903&amp;wpv_sort_orderby=post_views&amp;wpv_sort_order=desc&amp;wpv_view_count=54900-TCPID54903\">here<\/a> for more stories for the soul in search.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp; <br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/credit-n.ru\/zaymyi-next.html\">http:\/\/credit-n.ru\/zaymyi-next.html<\/a> <br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/credit-n.ru\/zaymyi-next.html\">http:\/\/credit-n.ru\/zaymyi-next.html<\/a> <br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/credit-n.ru\/zaymyi-next.html\">http:\/\/credit-n.ru\/zaymyi-next.html<\/a> <br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/credit-n.ru\/zaymyi-next.html\">http:\/\/credit-n.ru\/zaymyi-next.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nipples &#8211; everyone is born with a set of these.
