They’re going tit for tat.

The state flag of Virginia has been banned in a Texas school district over the depiction of a Roman goddess with an exposed bare boob, according to a report.

The Houston area’s Lamar Consolidated Independent School Distric removed the Virginia state flag from online learning platforms used by elementary schoolers because of a classically depicted drawing of a bare bosom, according to a report from Axios.

Virginia's state flag depicts the Roman goddess Virtus conquering a symbolic tyrant, but a Texas school district said her bare boob violated a new policy, according to Axios.

The boob-ban is part of the district’s recently adopted policy to preclude and prevent any “visual depictions of illustrations of frontal nudity” from elementary school library books and learning material, the report stated.

“The purpose of this policy is to ensure that the District provides a wide range of library materials for students and faculty that support student achievement and present varying levels of difficulty, diversity of appeal, and a variety of points of view,” the school district said of the policy on their website.

On the flag, the Roman goddess Virtus conquers the figure of “Tyranny,” accompanying the famous Latin phrase, and Virginia state motto, “Sic Semper Tyrannis,” which translates to “Thus always to tyrants.”

Virtus is the goddess of virtue and justice who has been depicted since the Classical era as a woman with an exposed breast.

Virginia’s state flag was adopted in April 1861 — but the initial design showed Virtus with a metal breastplate. In 1931, the flag was redesigned with Virtus clad in a toga and showing a partially nude breast.

The district did not reply to requests for comment from Axios, and could not immediately be reached by The Post.
