Madonna has branded Instagram "sexist" for censoring her photos.
The 63-year-old singer was left unimpressed when the platform removed a post she'd shared of images from a provocative photoshoot that showed her nipples, insisting they would never have done so if she was a man.
Sharing censored versions of the images, she wrote: "I'm reposting photographs Instagram took down without warning or notification ... The reason they gave my management that does not handle my account was that a small portion of my nipple was exposed.
"It is still astounding to me that we live in a culture that allows every inch of a woman's body to be shown except a nipple. As if that is the only part of a woman's anatomy that could be sexualized. The nipple that nourishes the baby!.
