In a new Instagram post, Madonna reveals additional shots of herself. From above and below the bed, wearing a cropped bra, breeches, fishnet stockings, and heels.

Madonna claimed the photos were taken down “without warning or notice,”. She added that, “Instagram told my manager it’s because a minor portion of my nipple was showing.”

Nudity is prohibited on Instagram. However, there are exceptions for photos for health reasons, such as mastectomies scarring, and nursing.

In a lengthy statement, the singer wrote: “It’s still surprising to me that we live in a culture where every inch of a woman’s body is exposed except for her nipples. As if it were the only sexable anatomical aspect of a lady. Nipples feed the infant! Isn’t it possible for a guy’s nipples to be erotic.

“A woman’s ass is never censored, anywhere. Thank you for trying to keep my sanity throughout the last four decades of censorship…. sexism, ageism and distorting prejudice…

Madonna was slammed earlier this week for posting violent images; and stating in the caption that her staff worked “for free.”

The singer posted a behind-the-scenes photo showing photographer Steven Klein. He was holding a knife to her neck. It was taken during her recent shoot for V Magazine.
