Dear people who report this photo every couple of days, 1) I'm my own instance admin. Your report comes to me, and I have very strict rules I set for myself on when to mark a post as sensitive, with a content warning, or to private mention it altogether. I approve of my behavior here. 2) I'm not even saying that in a "free the nipple" kinda way-- my nipple is literally hidden! The original and primary function of a pasty is to censor the female nipple, so I'm not going to mark pasty photos with a content warning or even as sensitive because that seems silly to me. I can and have gone in public wearing pasties. That's just what the culture is where I am from, and that's the culture I bring with me when I go online. 3) I am using Mastodon as intended (https://mastodon.social/@Gargron/109323056922301691). Reporting this post is only harassing me. Please use the many other tools at your disposal to disengage from personally unwanted content and stop harassing me. Thanks and much love~ Lety :google_emoji_kitchen_pink_heart_and_green_heart_mashup:

@lety@doesstuff.social You’re totally right. Weird that people who follow you are doing this. And if they don’t follow you, why report it instead of just going on with their lives?

@lety@doesstuff.social I made my admin account separate from my day to day account just so I didn’t have to mentally deal with any of that. I log in to the admin account usually only when there are errors or post upgrade.

@lety@doesstuff.social the brains of some people. “Help! Someone is almost showing nipples in the internet! Somebody do something!”

@lety@doesstuff.social We all know they're only mad because the nipples are covered. I'm curious to know if your non-covered nipples get reported too

@lety@doesstuff.social If anything we should be reporting the existence of those pasties in that photo 😤
