It is getting out of hand apparently. Instagram keeps deleting accounts of anyone, mostly female, posting pictures they deem inappropriate, and users are beginning to get pissed.

This time, it was online magazine and styling agency Sticks and Stones, which posted a photo of two sisters in swimsuits that shows partial you-know-what.

Agency co-founder Ainsley Hutchence says the account deletion is sexism, plain and simple.

According to the magazine,

“Unfortunately, Instagram has ruled out natural hair that appears on all bodies of women that don’t trim their bikini lines,” she tells Mic. “This hair occasionally does spill out of the sides of swimwear as it does on men in their underwear. But Instagram seem to be OK with man pubes.”

“Clearly this is absolutely sexist. Instagram believes that women should wax or get off their platform,” says Hutchence, whose account had more than 100,000 followers. She tells C-Heads that the cause for the deletion may also have been a nipple showing in the shadow of a bikini top, but she says she has “heard about many other accounts being deleted for the bush.” 

You would recollect Justin Bieber’s feisty post as the face of Calvin Klein and he had his bush all over the place, so yeah, that’s proof Instagram doesn’t want your pubes.
