Facebook took down the picture posted by the Zoo Weekly magazine – stating it was too demeaning

Zoo weekly is a mens magazine. Facebook has removed picture posted by this magazine following the removal of the elbows and breast picture.

The reason for removal was,

“The image, disturbing nature of having a disembodied woman and the offensive, clearly sexist and even abusive nature of some responses on a page being used to advertise this product should not be allowed. Both the pictures, the questions that are posed and the responses are regularly demeaning and unacceptable to women. Women are objectified and sexualised.”

But Zoo publisher ACP argues that the post is editorial material, not advertising. They added that “(men’s) choice of Zoo magazine is for a purpose – to engage with content that doesn’t require too much thought.”

Few comments for the picture after it was posted

Take a look at the Facebook page of Zoo weekly (Although this post is not available on the timeline). If this picture was demeaning, was it only this? If,yes why?!
