I don’t give a heck about posting n/s/f/w content but there are so many problems with this whole debacle 

• The wording of “female-presenting nipples” – which is thinly veiled sexism and you know the “presenting” part will be ignored, so transmasc people who have breasts will be given the boot, as well as enby and intersex folks who have “feminine breasts”. 
• The fact this is just because staff can’t be bothered to manually moderate the site so they’re just like “lol let’s just ban it all!” – they haven’t been for months, maybe years. I regularly reported illegal nsfw content that was never removed.
• The fact there are still nazis and white supremacists running around openly on here but nah that’s fine, lads. Can’t have nipples but fascists and nazis are a-okay [sarcasm].
• The fact that tons of artists who use the website and happen to draw primarily nude characters might be affected by this – like tumblr staff says they won’t but I really don’t believe that.
• The sheer fact alone that tumblr staff didn’t do anything about rampant pedos (”maps”) and CP, bestiality and zoophilia, etc. despite knowing it was on here, until they were removed from the Apple store.
• The evidence that tumblr staff never gave a hoot about protecting under 18 year olds on the site, and are only doing this to save face now that things have gone extremely wrong. 

Tumblr could have been such a good website but it’s been ruined by incompetent, lazy staff. I’ve been using tumblr for like nine, ten years now and it’s just, been utter incompetence at every turn. 

Once a stable alternative pops up (probably pillowfort, if they can get the infrastructure) I’m outta here.
