Influencer Questions Instagram Algorithm For Favoring Nudity

BRAZILIAN model and social media personality Wanessa Moura recently expressed her frustration with Instagram policies, claiming that they are making life difficult for those working in the social network space.

Moura noticed a significant difference in engagement on her posts, attributing it to the clothes she wears in the images. Wanessa stated that Instagram seems to favor nudity, as the algorithm predominantly delivers her bikini photos.

As a model, Moura frequently shares fashion editorials featuring swimwear and lingerie. She observed a clear discrepancy in the number of likes and comments on these posts compared to others. According to her, this content absorption is not driven by the interest of her 1.5 million followers but rather by the platform’s reach favoring certain types of content. She revealed that some of her audience members have reached out, stating that her posts do not appear on their feeds.

Research has investigated this issue and revealed that images of women in underwear or bathing suits are displayed 1.6 times more than images of them dressed, with a similar trend for men at approximately 1.3 times. Moura strongly questions the underlying sexism and misogyny in an algorithm that functions with such biases.

“I’m not in favor of women’s nudity on the internet, it doesn’t value us. But a photo of lingerie for a catalog, or a fashion editorial is no problem at all. What cannot happen is that these images stand out absurdly more than the others,” she said.

Wanessa clarified that while she does not condone nudity on social networks as she believes it devalues women, she sees no issue with sharing lingerie photos for catalogs or fashion editorials. Her concern lies in the disproportionate visibility and attention these images receive compared to others. She firmly advocates for a fairer algorithm that values diverse content and treats all users equally.
