What has the world become? Smh.
To me there's nothing cool about those pix, there are other ways to pass the message she had in mind.
Those pix are disgusting, yes they are irritating.
And it doesn't mean I don't value women. All these feminists should take it easy abeg, its getting too much.
~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA LUMIA
WOW!Am so proud of this Indian girl who knows what she want,imaine instagram apoLogising
After apologies.. nothing more! It is well. James 1:26. @Bishop_Dammy
We all are entitled to our opinion
And she took a bold step to xpress her work
Which I respect a lot.
And those insults I saw early
Wasn't necessary. Respect others pipo's
Point of view.
Love her write up tho
She just wanna breed sentiments over nothing to uphold a blackmail.
Men wouldnt post sperm on Instagram and drive up viscous sentiments.
If she wanna do it well, let her give birth to a son and place a used pad on his head while going to school... so that people can know that the blood is precious!
I knew it(Y)
Why wuld they even apologise in d first place? Rubbish

Well, in as much as i find d pictures rather disgusting, i think they represent a good cause and also remind d society how they should visualize women.
It's part of their existence,part of life itself. So why pretend it never was there? At least she didn't show her private part. Why glorify ejaculations and make the cycle that complements the life procreation process look outta context? I better stop before I start sounding Rupi Kaur. She has won already
It's irritating abeg
Girl power
This just shows that you can win many arguments if your intelligently and politely defend yourself.
If she had gone with guns blazing, the'll just ignore her or maybe delete her account from instagram sef.
Instagram team totally messed up restoring that picture. They let themselves be arm twisted by a mentally imbalanced foolish girl. It is not about the pussy being divine because babies grow there but more about basic decency! To many the sight of blood is revolting. It is just like a guy who had a wet dream posting the image of his soiled pyjamas and blabbing about his semen being divine because babies are made from there! I am very highly disappointed with the owners of instagram.
Dude still ain't comfortable with this Retarded Gal( who obviously have some hygiene issues) posting some menstruation ish and Screaming ARTS.
BITCH PLEASE!!!!!! Stop desecrating the Holy Ground of Art.
This is just like going against all Natural reasoning and accepting that Gayism is natural (forgetting that it goes against all the Laws of Nature as espoused by continuous propagation of living things).
She need 2 go see a Shrink ASAP.
And fuck this stinking debate about whether that ish she did is cool or not when we all know deep within that it is absolutely DIRTY.
Hmmm.
Well.... Different views! Good for her tho
Enjoy ur 1hr publicity
hurray!!!!!
Creebhills Review|Woman On Fire: Waje Looks Stunning In Swimsuit As She Poses For Made Magazine
Nothing but respect for Rupi - Keep being inspirational.
We need more woman like these to empower us unlike the big booty arses we see everyday on instagram.
Ewww close my eyes!!!
OK o
OK o. Go to bed sisi Linda
When we are all female. What should we be ashamed of really. We have to know our rights and this is one of them. I saw this post on tumblr, some of you might not know what that means, but this woman had her story behind it. If women are trying to fight for equality and other women do not support it. Then what exactly are we fighting for? This picture should be understood and not be seen as disgusting because it happens in our everyday lives. -I
Good for her, freedom of expression should be maintained
In my opinion posting the pic was totally unnecessary and uncalled for in fact it's actually offensive.
Good, that's what's supposed to be.
Ubanagum
Nice write up.....Linda watch!
The next thing we have to see a guy cum or pee or take a dump or a sweaty girl. Im a girl but looking at blood gives me chills except when its mine 4 5days of d month & i try not to look. my 2 cents
Oh & Kim K posting nudes doesn't justify this
Linda, the guy who was instrumental to shutting your blog down (Daniyan) the Egbirà man now works for PDP as a spin doctor. He was on BEN TV. He was I polite and not rude.
and empty heads like godwin will come here and talk bullcrap .. a sheer disgrace to ur gender
peeing and pooping are also natural processes doesn't mean we all have to see it. People posting nudes are not doing appropriate things but also posting a pic of blood is appealing either as natural as it is.
You're sorry!? What is the difference btw this and your graphic content pics, I guess psychologically you're not different afterall.
Menses wey stain pants n sheets don turn topic. This na rubbish oh... If they didn't remove her messed up pants pic, she for write that long thing? Indian ogbanje. Dirty girl.. See her dirty bathroom .. Tufiakwa ogbanje India
I hope d semi-illiterate lib reading robots who display their bewildering ignorance earlier will learn something from this. Am a guy but I got her msg clearly, still wonder y many pple here didn't.
Linda why are you flip/ flopping now? One minute you are praising the Indian girl for her open-letter to Instagram. The next minute, you're saying you'd rather see a woman in bikini than menstrual blood. What's your own really? Sounds like you got some type of bipolar shid going on. If you like don't post my comment. whatever! Your money-hungry followers are always attacking folks whose comments they don't agree with anyways. And if this does get published, all your suffer head beggers who like to insult people on LIB just to leave a comment with hopes to win 25K Linda giveaway, better watch yourself. Because just like you, we are all entitled to our opinion. If you don't like what someone else said, just ignore it. If you are frustrated, take your frustration up with your stupid and clueless Goodluck Jonathan and not on strangers online... ignorant morons... and some of y'all are butt-ugly too!
The pix is gross if u ask me...
#TeamBlessed#
I maintain its not appropriate.. message it rep is understandable but not the pic please
Instagram can do mumu tins sha. I don't find it sane for any1 to wanna share a pic of her blood stained pic publicly in the 1st place plus without a viewer's descretion tag on it, not in the least a menstrual stain. #Unnecessarypost #unnecessaryapology #unnecessarydrama
I applaud you lady! Very bold...
Bbamsmi
I done see something#teamA#seybyth
Its an unnecessary picture.
What exactly is disgusting about it. U r the very reason she wrote it. U can refer back to get message. I really wonder makes a patch of blood on a pyjamas disgusting. Or is it just the knowledge of where the blood came from.
Her message waz quite meaningful, irritating photoz yea, buh if I can c pplez buttz, boobz, corpz etc derz Nuttn I cnt c anymore (thankz to social media). Instagram shuldnt ve taken dat down, Itz now a Free world, Diz iz Jux d begining!!!!
Rubbish
Nice one sola
Lol. Dis is so funny
Hello Linda. Please i wrote a piece about the elections. Please help read and, if ever possible, post it on blog. it's my little message to fellow country men. Thanks. check it up at www.whatwereyouthinkingnaija.blogspot.com
How shallow both you and Sola are. In the human anatomy do sperm and menstrual blood represent the same thing?
The release of sperm can be controlled naturally but menstrual flow can't. She had explained that she was going through a lot of pain because of it. Her story can be seen as an inspiration to women like her who go through similar or worse pains to embraced what has been naturally designed by God.
That, to me, was her point. I'm sure you feel nudity is more appropriate than this. Disappointed in Linda as well. She obviously doesn't go through such pains or know anyone who does. SMH.
Very well stated! Linda won't see anything wrong with nudity and graphic pictures of disasters or incidents which show blood or even dead victims. But this is an issue for her.
But it's fine to see d vagina where it comes out from posted all over the internet n called sexy, right? If u like to shook ur mouth there, then d period should nit be a problem
All these people talking trash about the girl are obviously dumb make specie. My dear if you guys should experience just half of what we go through monthly all in the name of menstruation, some of you will ask God to take your life.
Mtchewwwwwwwww
This is serious, who is to blame now.....
Event Mgt and Decoration is my business
Altho' the picture might be repugnant and revolting, she's just trying to make a really solid and valid point, that's what this should be seen as...(the significance of womanhood)
good that's how its supposed to be. Linda take note!
http://www.vb.cutestylish.com/
And I can bet you can say that to all the women' in youwomen's.
10 / 10
Well spoken.
i understand wher shes coming from but seriously nobody wants to see your monthly blood...we understand the talk about it being the souce of livelihood. but the sperm too fertilises the eggs..im sure nobody want to see any guy ejaculate in public...
Your analogy is weak. Tell your Kim who always post naked pics, to walk the street naked. So an expression of art ( like your Kim naked pics) is bad?
You should be disappointed in yourself! They respected her right to expression . If you walk into the room of a strange woman and she is naked won't you back out ?
But watch loads of such on Instagram.
Bandwagon, because Linda says so
Oh many times have you enjoy the nudes ? Have your opinion. Stop the bandwagon effect. Because Linda find it offensive, then it is
Linda, eggplants will not be disgusting to you O kwia ? Bloody pervert!
95% of PPL who comment on this blog have zero awareness wen it comes to poetic art n matters of reality! Nice one Rupi, u did it! #thumbsup
She express herself and her voice was heard which is a huge success on her side. For those who don't like the pics, well it gross but guys don't forget you s**k the same Virginia after the flow and girls you love it when he does that. I prefer to see ppl talking bold steps as this to stop those naked pics we see online everyday. Ask urself, what will ur kids do after seeing those pics?
Menstruation defines a woman women go through pain every month menstruation is a sign that u have a womb that can carry babies it is the shedding of egg, it is a good piece of art I rather see rupi's work than watch women disgracing themselves by posting naked pictures. She has a disease associated to the period
They did well.
OKORO UPGRADED**
Don't be a foul sexist! Men should just shut up and stop saying crap. What really is wrong with her pic. I'm a guy and the stupid argument of postings sperm is just dumb and stupid. She didn't post her own cum from sexual intercourse or something. So don't be silly. If you see it as disgusting, then you are disgusting.
We place you women on a pedestal. That is our attraction to you - you are perfect in our eyes, we adore you almost as angels.
But when you begin to fart carelessly in front of us, stop doing your hair, no bathing or make-up, horrible clothes, shitting noisily, showing us menstrual blood anyhow... we can no longer worship you.
There is a reason why somethings are decent, and some are not. I dare you to accept the next toaster who is picking his nose and scratching his balls as he is talking to you.
Haba! Always don finish for market ne?
Instagram is a smart company. It's all about the profit and business. It would not worth being infamous and loosing customers for a little issue such as this, and it doesn't take anything for them to apologize. Argue over this issue 247, Instagram doesn't give a fuck. Just means more popularity for them and more business.
Sola Osasona for PRESIDENT! Brother, what you said is VALID! GBAM!
Really? If that should be removed from our system, you fool won't be born... Ode Last Last
Rubbish! So should a man also take a picture of semen coming out of his Penis?? Makes no sense
Yes Miss Nice. It's a waste and makes you unclean. I also think faeces on a tissue/pyjamas is disgusting.
Though the pictures has a good messages, its irritating.
Just like ur nasty semen shouldn't enter any woman's vagina.
Hey miss shut ur mouth. This is disgusting and shouldn't be encouraged.Am a female and wouldn't rub my feminity in the mud this way. It's just like displaying ur breastmilk in the open because u want the world to appreciate feminity. Rubbish! Teach her clean up and stop annoying me

The fact that u called vagina pussy already tells us what goes on in ur brain. It is well with this generation.
Wat kind of dirty behaviour is dis? Mk I read d previous story 1st b4 I conclude.
Mr. Hygiene issue read this: I am a lady with heavy period. About 7days to my period I become very careful with my diet, I step up my exercise( physical) . The first days of my period I go about with 6 extra sanitary plus undeis just for the day. I run-in and out-of the toilet every 3hours so I don't get stained. Per adventure I delay to perform this ritual by 10minutes, my whole day will be brought to a forceful end. In your view, am a dirty girl, right?
I try to rush pick-up an item in a shop, and repeatedly the honest cashier tells me: aunty you paid in excess, this is the surplus. Am I supposed to be ashamed of that inspite of excruciating pain I bear for nature' s sake I also suffer memory loss? What is wrong that I choose to share my experience with the world to create awareness and encourage female across that this is normal and part of the price we pay for humanity? I understand that you don't know what goes on in a woman' s body so I ' ll pardon your ignorance but a continuation of this bullshit will leave me no choice...
She's just an idiot...
It was no mistake "they" knew if "they" had not done something it would bring what de never wanted!!!!
Your opinion don't count anymore coz d pix has been reinstated. Yea yea its kinda irritating and a gory sight, what im after is the message shes trying to pass through.
Wat makes r lucky, cos r useless period pics ws restored wt apology abi? U no serious
You retard..babies don't grow in the pussy. ..did u say u are a doctor. ? This post is about myopics like you.
@Sola Pointless talk. She was very convincing with her words which are infact true and this is the best you can do to counter it?? Try again. ----C21
Really?
What's disgusting? If you were fucking her hard and perharps blood came out it would not have been disgusting huh! Mtcheeew! Whatever!
For the very first time, I hate ur comment...u are insensitive
I read the girls comment and I saw a strong argument that would win that case any day. This lady is an embodiment of morality and intellect. All women should be proud of her. Not for her pictures, but for her courage in fighting for what she believes to be right.
Some of the women here were quick to attack her post calling it gross. Yet most of you glorify Maheeda, Amber Rose, Kim K, etc, who daily release obnoxious rape inviting images on social media. Yet a fully clothed woman with a drop of menstraul blood is gross for you. You all should be ashamed of yourselves and the decadence of morality all over the world you encourage and even promote. After you will say men objectify you and see you as sex objects only. You all make yourselves look like you are good for nothing but sex, when big butt and boobsis all you thing you have been endowed with and promote.
Alas, instagram has reinstated her pictures calling it a mistake. ROTFL, you made that stupid mistake twice? But again, you have done the right thing. Her argument was touching and strong.
Congrats Rupi!
You really make so much sense. You are an intelligent and understanding person.
Posting that photo in the first place was totally unnecessary. So I can now post a pic of my poop.. ain't nothing wrong with that. It's ART. Yeah? Instagram took it down because ppl actually reported it as offensive. IG do not have the time to censor the millions of photos entering its servers. If anyone thinks Kim K n her cohorts are putting up nude pics, you can also report them as offensive. You don't join their madness and try to claim what you doing is right!
...there are better ways to pass this message, like using a clean sanitary pad...everyone understands dat sanitary pads are used for one thing and one thing ONLY; Menstrual circle...go see don..
Emy still sighting from outerspace....
OVER AND OUT
Gud, cos I dnt c anything wrong wt d pix.
Eya! Olodo, so you "grew" in your mother's pussy? No wonder you're such a pussy!
Ode!
Rubbish ! Leme upload pictures of my shit,how i washed/clean my bum,how my poop look and send it to Linda, if LIBers won't kill me dat day,but here dey are supporting a girl putting pics of her menstrual blood online! Dere are better ways to be feminist, not uploading dat trash for pple to see...dirty n unhygienic.. How many of LIBers staning for her can do such? Non!!non! Hypocrites
Disgusting
Miss nice oya go about uploading pics of ur menstrual blood lemme see if u go see boyfriend muchless husband marry
Shut. Up bonaorio u bang ur girl when she iis menstruation u love d sight in d bed room
Nothing bad with the photo. She was just trying to prove something.... A means to an end and it was positive..
Local breed!
I. Dnt see anyfin wrong Wiif d pictures, wat if iit wasn't. Menstrual blood.or becos we have d knowledge dats y ppl criticise
Linda, so many people are waiting for more news! There should be so much news today( as in every 1 min) else you go fall hands!
Mmmmmmm......
No dear, it's knowing that they suck that place everyday, they don't want us to remind them such a messy thing as blood comes out from that same place. Maybe they would have appreciated it better if she posted a picture of baby coming out of a woman's vagina.
thats the right thing joh, "red" should be appreciated like life itself
*** Kween likes anonymous 12:40am's comment***
Nyc one
Finally!!! Someone else is noticing this. For example, she will condemn Kim for doing something but if Tiwa or someone else she likes should do the same thing, she will post it and rain praises on them! Linda, your bias is starting to stink!!!
Rupa won. End of story. Any1 Datz not cool wiv it Shld GTH
Wow! I hope dis wil b reciprocated when someone frm Africa dares dis?
What if your wife and sisters never see their"nasty period".
You're the foolish one. Babies don't grow in the pussy. And your father doesn't own instagram so sit the f**k down and shut up.
nice work gal....some pple here tho are nt really gettin the point.....bt u made ur point
Really good point Sola
Tell dem abeg...she should keep her fucking dirty mncs to her sef
...
Very irritating
The sacred blood that makes the beautiful kids we all love to show off is disgusting? Its a wonderful thing Rupi opened our eyes to, those who want to see and understand will do so, those who will look from now till thy Kingdom come and still prefer bikin bodies will do so.
You are obviously a silly ignorant incredibly childish nitwit. Dude grow up!
If the patch of blood was on her head or arm. Everyone begins to show sympathy. But cos it's from the virgina, you call it disgusting? ?!
Instagram, that is the right thing to do.
Instagram, that is the right thing to do.
So if it were to be announced that it is now completely ok for women to move around bloodstained would that make us equals? this reinforces the popular nigerian saying- (who you kan dey do?) na yourself oh, this is not about women equality this is about simple fucking hygenie, protrayng such a sensitive part of womanhood for all to see is thoughtless and degrading to women everywhere, take it easy in this constant struggle for equality and try not to go overboard.
Insane girl
It's disgusting jare
Brainless tout
Maybe you should post yours too and telll all your brothers to post themselves soaked up in sperm! RUBBISH
Are you even straight?
Dnt ever call it nasty,mtchew,mtchew,nonsense!!!!!!jst because u r a guy dsnt mean u shud disrespect d "femalehood"....do I blame ur sorry mouth,bt for d grl dt postd nonsense nd some pple r still supporting her,ds ain't how to fight for ur right,watch chimamanda,mtchew!!!!
All u dumb fucks! This is not something to be shown to the public...if u rememba in d bible Rachael could not stand to greet her father cos she was in her period (though she lied). Bt that is to tell you that it was regarded as sacred n women seeing tbr menstruation wr nt allowed into certain places or to do certain things..go nd find out frm ur grand father who worships idols..they are not allowed contact with thr wifes during her menstrual flow...so y d fuck should some1 com on social media to show d whole world her menstrual blood???? Huh???
Is it period or menstraul blood when writing proper grammer /English? This Linda na real bushmo oooo
Miss Victoria, pls don't misquote my text. I simply posited that the ACT of posting PICTURES of Menstrual Blood 4 the World 2 see is DIRTY. Very DIRTY (in reply 2 ur first paragraph)
Fuck u TRI with ur twisted mind n horrible looking face brought about by ur retarded views on issues, not just the one under discourse, but i can bet other issues as well.
You need 2 grow up TRI, u need 2 grow UP.
Linda is uncomfortable with a menstrual flow pic,it should be private right? But eggplants and all sorts of nude pics you feed us with daily are all very appropriate? Smh
Rosie Said......@ Dr David Chux.O., I dont know who you are, you made perfect sense!!!!! Am a woman and this sight looks nasty and disgusting to me not to talk of other people who have absoloutely nothing to do with my period. This world is full of flip-floppers including Instagram,always apologizing where no apology is needed.
