When it comes to a protest, Scout Willis certainly knows how to get attention to her cause. The 22-year-old daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis went completely topless for a stroll in New York City on Tuesday in a bid to highlight her disagreement with Instagram's policy against female nudity.
Using hashtag #FreeTheNipple, Scout shared the following post:
In one shot, Scout is brazenly striding along a Manhattan street wearing just a floral skirt and flat shoes with a handbag worn over one arm. In another, she is seen shopping at a market stall for fresh flowers.
The sometime model and actress is intent on protesting Instagram’s rules prohibiting the use of female nudity - even in the context of women sharing their battles against breast cancer. 'Scout highlighted her problem with the popular social networking site by sarcastically posting a shot from venture capitalist Dan Bilzerian's Instagram account showing a scantily clad buxom women. Judging by a series of tweets posted over the last few weeks, Scout's protest appeared to stem from Instagram suspending her account for posting a photo of a sweatshirt she designed called The Babe Bomber featuring two topless women.
Scout's protest comes a few weeks after a Canadian mother's Instagram was briefly shut down after she posted photographs of herself breastfeeding. After protesting her case, Heather Bays's account was reinstated but with around seven photographs removed.
Go Scout!!!
