While reviewing new content for my <a href="http://scoop.it">scoop.it</a> (<a href="http://www.scoop.it/t/women-and-wikimedia">http://www.scoop.it/t/women-and-wikimedia</a>), where I posted the recent blog link that Pete shared..I was suggested this: (safe for work)<br>
<br><a href="http://hosieryadvocate.blogspot.com/2011/10/hosiery-in-wikimedia-sexy-halloween.html">http://hosieryadvocate.blogspot.com/2011/10/hosiery-in-wikimedia-sexy-halloween.html</a><br><br>The blog writer has an entire set of tags devoted to photographs of women in hosiery that are found on Wikipedia/Media/Commons. <br>
<br>Here is the blog when the writer praises Commons for it's excellent job at categorizing hosiery. <br><br><a href="http://hosieryadvocate.blogspot.com/2011/05/hosiery-in-wikimedia.html">http://hosieryadvocate.blogspot.com/2011/05/hosiery-in-wikimedia.html</a><br>
<br>"<a href="http://commons.wikimedia.org/">Wikimedia Commons</a> does a great job of finding hosiery photos for you, when you search for <q>hosiery</q>, <q>pantyhose</q>, <q>tights</q> and <q>stockings</q>,
but there are many photos on the site, that do not turn up with those
searches. Those photos show up under different searches, and will do
just fine."<br><br>-- On a personal note, my first high end retail job, at 18, was working in the hosiery department at Nordstroms. I became well aware of the fetish around hosiery due to a selected clientele we had. But this gave me quite a chuckle and brought back "Early retail" memories. <br>
<br>I'm impressed that so many men know so much about women's hosiery on Commons, presuming that the majority of categorizers handling that department are males....(I could be wrong, but statistically...) <br clear="all">
