The #freethenipple feminist revolution taking place on Twitter in Iceland is starting to make waves internationally. Buzz Feed has just published an article called Icelandic Women Come Together to Free The Nipple in Solidarity With a Feminist Teen.
"College students, mothers, and a politician posted photos of their exposed breasts to join a 17-year-old in protesting nudity double standards."
Numbers of Icelandic women are supporting this international movement today either by posting photographs of nipples on Twitter or by simply using the hashtag #freethenipple.
