My pal over at CrunchyDomesticGoddess let me know about this latest blunder from MySpace…Apparently the powers that be have removed a very discreet picture of a nursing mama and threatened her with deleting her account if she continues to post pictures. The charge? It “violates MySpace policies against nudity and sexually suggestive images.” Excuse me?
Let me point out the number of news stories flooding the wires about young girls masquerading as legal and meeting up with older men (or, conversely, older men masquerading as younger to meet up with young women). On the few occasions that I’ve attempted to search for anyone on MySpace, I have found dozens of pictures of scantily-clad and/or suggestive photos. The breastfeeding one they’re complaining about here is so totally harmless and probably shows less skin than the usual Abercrombie & Fitch ad.
Come on MySpace. Get a grip.
