Unless you've been living under a rock, you will probably be aware of the fact that Tommy Lee posted a pic of his privates last week.
The Mötley Crüe drummer took to Instagram to share a snap of him with his bits hanging out for all of his 1.6 million followers to see.
Unsurprisingly, many of the millions of people who have since taken a peek at the snap have been pretty shocked by what they saw.
And while it was eventually deleted, people questioned the platform for not removing it immediately.

Under Instagram's community guidelines, nudity is prohibited, but is acceptable in paintings and sculptures.
Some claimed there was a clear disparity between how women were treated on the platform compared to men.
One user said: "Women's accounts get banned on #Instagram for just showing nipples and yet #TommyLee can post a full frontal d*ck pic and not get into trouble. The double standards."
While another added: "So Tommy Lee can post a picture of his penis on @instagram that's still up three hours later but a picture of my curvy booty in a thong bikini gets taken down? Cool, cool."
People have also now compared the reaction a lot of people seemed to have to Lee's racy snap to those posted in recent months by Britney Spears.
Despite many users not enjoying the sight of the musician's genitals, there have been plenty who really did.
"Thank you Tommy Lee for blessing us," wrote one fan.
Another screamed: "TOMMY LEE. FOR FREE??"
On the other hand, the 'Toxic' singer received a huge backlash for her, for all intents and purposes, 'nude' snaps.
One user said: "2022 and we have to witness Tommy Lee being praised for posting a frontal nude while Britney Spears is constantly momshamed for posting sexy pics ffs."
Someone else backed the popstar, writing: "Sooooo Tommy Lee posts a picture of his c**k and it’s class, Britney Spears posts nudes and she’s vile?
"Those double standards are still alive and well and truly kicking."
"Anyways… it’s so funny how Britney Spears constantly gets dragged for her Instagram photos, but as soon as Tommy Lee posts a full-frontal photo on Instagram it’s praise everywhere. ANNOYING and misogynistic," put a third.
While another added: "To the women mad about Britney Spears posting nudes, but LOVING when Tommy Lee does it, what the actual f**k? Lol"
