Chelsea Handler May Soon Be Able to Free Her Nipples on Instagram

In an effort to protest Instagram's double standard on toplessness, former Paper cover star Chelsea Handler has been freeing her nipples willy nilly on social media since fall, atop horses, atop mountains, atop scooters, at Mardi Gras and, now, on a floor. The latest photo, posted to Twitter yesterday, is meant to refute recent idiot-spread rumors that she had a breast lift for her 40th birthday.



Though the once-tireless Handler doesn't bother posting her topless shots to Instagram anymore (they removed her horse-top photo three times), Instagram seems to slowly be easing up on its no-nipples policy. A recent Animal tweet revealed a painting of a topless woman by Tara McPherson for Juxtapoz's 20th anniversary show was initially taken down but later re-instated. And, as the Fader points out, New York art critic Jerry Saltz' Instagram page is mysteriously still an art-nudes free-for-all while access to his Facebook page was apparently suspended yesterday due to complaints over his consistently provocative postings. All of this seems like an awfully messy "what constitutes art" conversation for Facebook/Instagram to enter into, but perhaps it's possible this is the first in a series of steps for the network to lift its anti-boobs policy all together? Until then, we'll keep making do with butts while our brave topless warriors like Handler fight the good nipple fight.
