I saw the top on Caitlin Heath's Instagram at the start of the week. I'm quite partial to a silly t-shirt, so I didn't even have to think twice about googling it, because I knew I had to have it. Particularly this one because I've never actually had massive tits.
At first I thought this tshirt was about representin' all us ladies with the small ass boobies, but then on researching it after the purchase, the message actually goes a little further. The t-shirt pays reference to the Free The Nipple campaign - an equality movement fighting the censorship of women - because if lads can get their nips out, why can't the gals? Not only is there an equality movement but a Netflix feature film, a considerable social media presence and a hashtag to help spread the love - #FreeTheNipple.
Amongst the social media presence, there's a whole beautiful Instagram dedicated to ladies trying to break the stigma. Instagram will delete an image where a females nipples are published, and the photo-sharing app has received it's fair share of criticism over all of this. Instagram CEO Kevin Systrom says the company is "committed to artistic freedom", but insists that they're safe playing censorship is all down to Apple. Seems a bit shit to blame someone else, but Apple's App Store says that any apps containing nudity must carry a 17 and over age rating.
Australian and U.S based actress, Caitlin Stasey, 26, launched her badass webisite - Herself - in early 2015. This outspoken lady is all about female body empowerment. Her Instagram is full of topless selfies all in support of the campaign. At the launch party of her new website she wore one of these tee's to support the cause. Go on sista.
