DESCRIPTION:Dec. 27, Sat. :\n defend breast-feeding from Facebook's 
 mammaphobia\n\n\nFrom: "TERA Co-ordinator" \n [ in Canada]\n\nTo: 
 nakity-owner@yahoogroups.com, \ntopfreeithaca@yahoogroups.com, \n"USA 
 Topfreedom" , et alii......\n..............\n\n\nAction planned this 
 weekend against Facebook\n\n----\n\nThe free Internet utility 
 \nFacebook,\nwith its tens of millions of users,\nstill removes from its 
 pages \nphotographs of women breastfeeding, \ndespite complaints about that 
 practice,\nbeginning well over a year ago.\n\n\nThis Saturday, December 27, 
 \ntwo [ freedom-seeking]events will occur:\n\n1) A protest feed-in \nby 
 breastfeeding mothers outside the Facebook\nheadquarters:\n156 University 
 Avenue, Palo Alto, California, [U$A]. \nTime: 11 AM\nto 2 PM [ Pacific 
 Standard Time].\n...............................\n\n2) A virtual protest: 
 \nWomen and men on Facebook\n are asked to do\n two things:\n post as their 
 profile picture \na photo of a woman breastfeeding a\nchild (it may also be 
 a work of art,\n or a non-human mammal); \nand change\ntheir status line 
 to\n"Hey, Facebook, breastfeeding is not obscene!"\n\nThese changes should 
 be in place for \nthe 24-hour period of \nDecember 27\n[ like from midnite 
 to midnite;\nor from 0001 AM\nto 1259 PM;\nor longer.].\n----\n\nFacebook 
 claims that\n breastfeeding photos are "obscene," \n"pornographic,"\nor 
 "sexually explicit" \nif they show "an entire breast." \nThat's 
 Facebook\nbeing dishonest, \nfor they mean "a nipple."\n But women's 
 nipples,\nbreastfeeding or not, \nare not obscene in California law; \nand 
 in no  [ U.S.] state\nare they obscene in photographs.\n\nIn most places, 
 \nof course, they're not "obscene"  [at all],\n even apart 
 from\nbreastfeeding;\n whatever legal restrictions are placed against them 
 don't\nuse that word \nor the other terms with which Facebook demeans 
 and\nstigmatizes women.\n Facebook also claims that images of breasts\n 
 harm children.\n\nTERA urges all on Facebook\n to participate in this 
 protest, \nand any breastfeeders near Palo Alto\n to go there in person as 
 well.\n\nThank you!\n\n-- TERA\n\n--\nTopfree Equal Rights
