Member of Iceland's Parliament Posts Picture of Breast Online to "Fight Patriarchy"
Pundit Press ^ | 4/1/15 | Aurelius

Björt Ólafsdóttir, a member of Iceland’s parliament, has posted a picture of her left breast online in order to “fight sexism” and “the patriarchy.”

In an editorial written by Ólafsdóttir, she explained that she did so because she is tired of the hypocrisy of “Facebook and Instagram, whose guidelines specifically target the female form.”

She explains that Facebook and Instagram allow men to show their nipples, and women should be able to do the same. The campaign she is championing is called “#FreeTheNipple.”

Ólafsdóttir was inspired to act by 17-year-old Adda Smaradottir, who took a topless photo of herself and posted it online. Ólafsdóttir took a picture of herself lifting her shirt, revealing her left breast. She then posted it to twitter with the caption, “This is to feed children. Shove it up your patriarchy. #FreeTheNipple.”

I’m not interested in this nipple. It is a poor representation of what I think of when I think og the “ nipple”.

She’s rather pathetically late to the stupid “cause”; this garbage has been around, in America, for almost a year...that I know of and her idiotic post is stuck in 1970 hippiedom/Feminazism.

Bjorne, or Bjorne, or BJ, you nipple is too small and inadequate to interest me. Be inferior someplace else.

She then posted it to twitter with the caption, “This is to feed children. Shove it up your patriarchy. #FreeTheNipple.”

The male reaction to the female form that she is complaining about (are all liberals this anti-science?), is the response that creates the children that the changed female body is then capable of feeding.

Yes, but I would rather have feminists running around flashing their goods than getting up to other kinds of trouble. It’s relatively harmless and you might even spot a nice pair, once in a while.

“has posted a picture of her left breast online in order to “fight sexism” and “the patriarchy.””

Makes you wonder about what’s wrong with the right breast, doesn’t it?

Interesting styling in that coat she’s wearing. Does she unzip her fly and stand at a urinal when she takes a whiz?
