'That’s just another form of online bullying.'
Brooklyn-based blogger Noelle Downing is calling Instagram out on its double standard for removing images based on body size—and she's using her personal story to make her point.
Downing said that when she logged on to Instagram later that day, she had a notification from the app informing her that her post had been taken down. . “I didn’t do what Instagram was saying in order to get my post taken down. I went and looked at my feed and I was just mad then.”But Downing wasn’t just mad about having her post removed. She explains that she knew the reason it was likely removed was because of her size.
Downing realized that her post was likely taken down because users had reported it, which she believes is a total double standard to Instagram’s anti-bullying campaign. This Woman Felt Like a 'Fraud' on Social Media—So She Shared a Photo in Her Underwear to Show Her Real Self Downing took to Instagram Stories to explain her frustrations, and even gave examples of other nude photos that Instagram had not removed. Posts from celebritiesare allowed, even though they are showing significantly more skin than Downing’s photo.
