Being a woman on the internet can be stressful at times, thanks to the onslaught of unsolicited dick pics many women have to deal with. 

Whether it's in your Instagram DMs, from an unknown Snapchat account or even emailed to you, there is nothing quite so confronting as seeing the peen of a stranger in high definition on your screen, especially when you didn't ask for it. 

It's offensive, upsetting and disturbing, and one Twitter user, Maura Quint, reported this issue to Twitter after receiving three dick pics from three accounts run by the same person. 

According to Maura: 'A guy just created three accounts with the same name and same avatar, @'d and dm'd me the same dick pic from each account.'

'Reported all three, got three different replies.'

Maura then published screenshots of Twitter's responses to her report. 

One said that the account had been locked because of the unsolicited penis pic.

'We have reviewed the account you reported and have locked it because we found it to be in violation of the Twitter Rules,' said Twitter in the first response.

However, another said that the accounts were not in violation of the Twitter community guidelines. 

'We reviewed your report carefully and found that there was no violation of Twitter's Rules regarding abusive behaviour,'

'We’re now taking action on 10x the number of abusive accounts every day compared to the same time last year,' Ed Ho, Twitter's consumer product and engineering manager, in a recent blog post. 

'We also now limit account functionality or place suspensions on thousands more abusive accounts each day.'

This poses the question: How does Twitter decide what is or isn't offensive, when it seems the site itself can't agree?
