Social Media 'More Likely to Suppress Women's Health Content over Men's', Young People Say

  • A recent survey of 4,000 individuals revealed that young adults aged 18 to 34 perceive social media to disproportionately restrict content related to women's health compared to men's.
  • This trend results from automated content moderation systems like shadow banning, where posts on women's health are often incorrectly classified as adult content despite using anatomical terms.
  • Popular social networking sites frequently remove or limit posts about menstrual and sexual health, which many young adults depend on social media to access and learn from.
  • Survey data shows 77% of young adults know about shadow banning, 33% of users aged 18-24 say women's health content is often restricted, and campaigns by Essity and CensHERship seek to address this issue.
  • The suppression of women's health information limits access to crucial knowledge, prompting calls for open, uncensored discussions on social media to break taboos and empower users.
