On December 3, 2018, Tumblr announced that a full NSFW ban would go into effect on December 17, banning "photos, videos, or GIFs that show real-life human genitals or female-presenting nipples, and any content—including photos, videos, GIFs and illustrations—that depicts sex acts." Staff specified that users could still freely post "exposed female-presenting nipples in connection with breastfeeding, birth or after-birth moments, and health-related situations, such as post-mastectomy or gender confirmation surgery", as well as "Written content such as [[erotica]], nudity related to political or newsworthy speech, and nudity found in art, such as sculptures and illustrations".<ref name="Adult content helpdesk update">[https://tumblr.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/231885248-Adult-content Adult content], Tumblr staff, December 3 2018</ref>
