I'm wondering what the thinking is among list members concerning photos depicting more
militant feminist protest activity.
I've been searching for images on Flickr that relate to feminism worldwide, and
selecting some to copy to Commons. I've come across a few that are definitely in the
radical end of the spectrum. The photos themselves range from "could be offensive to
some people" (e.g. topless demonstrators) to "fully intended to be offensive to
some/many people" (e.g. anti-male graffiti, posters dealing with menstruation).
Now, it's one thing to discuss militancy in an article, it's another to see
photos. They have documentary value, and I'm of the mind to go ahead and add them to
the Radical feminism article. Since they were intended to shock, though, I do hesitate to
do it.
Would they serve an article well, or detract? Opinions?
