Exempt non-sexual breastfeeding images on Facebook from removal for nudity

Facebook censorship of breastfeeding photos has been a long standing issue with hundreds of photos being removed over the years Facebook has been active, along with entire pages and profiles removed, many had thousands of followers.
Women breastfeeding is not 'sexually inappropriate', these women are feeding their children, not performing a sexual act, or provoking sex. Let's remember too that breastfeeding is the most important evolutionary purpose of breasts, and standards for dress are different all around the world. Facebook argues that these photos are classed as 'nudity'. Why then are mens chests not classified as nudity, why are women singled out, particularly when women need to use their breasts so often to breastfeed their children? 
Soft porn and even graphic porn is rampant through out Facebook, yet it remains untouched, while breastfeeding images are instead targeted and removed. It's totally unfair that women are punished for breastfeeding, yet applauded for exposing themselves in sexually provocative poses. 
Discrimination and hate speech of religion or sexual orientation is not tolerated on FB. The content is removed and profiles removed or suspended. Why are breastfeeding women not protected from discrimination? US Federal law states that breastfeeding women are exempt from nudity laws, and those harassing a breastfeeding woman can even be taken to court or fined. FB needs to align its policy with Feral law and exempt non-sexual breastfeeding images from removal for nudity.
Join us in helping to protect breastfeeding women on Facebook.

We the undersigned wish for non-sexual breastfeeding images on Facebook to be exempt from removal for nudity. Breastfeeding is in no way sexual, it provides essential nourishment for infants. US Federal law states that breastfeeding is not considered nudity, we implore you to align your policy with Federal law and protect non-sexual breastfeeding images on Facebook from removal.
