In a separate post, a male user expressed frustration after RedNote censored a photo of his upper body. “Why can’t I post photos of my fitness and abs?” he asked, adding he had “never had such a problem on TikTok and Instagram.”

A Chinese user suggested that he try covering his nipples, as Chinese social media platforms generally impose restrictions on displaying them when it is perceived as sexually suggestive.

Oof ouch my male privilege

Oof I’m glad to see we are learning the right lessons from this.

Sure, the problem is, that male nipples are allowed in the West, not the other way round...
