Arnaud,



I've ordered a copy of Good Hair as well. :) There are excellent scholarly sources on [[hair

straightening]] in the black community. I dropped a few on the article's talk page, but it's just

the tip of the iceberg. I may do some work on the article. Any help by editors better

qualified than me welcome!



I agree about the Black Girls video. My wife showed it to me a few months ago, and it's

stayed with me ever since. 



As for your other point, about unnecessary surgery, Sarah spotted that we had some frankly

misleading before/after plastic surgery pictures in a number of articles on female genitalia

(uploaded by a plastic surgeon, no less). There were also two (2) in the vulva article. I found

that quite perturbing.



Best,

Andreas

Many thanks for your work on those articles, Andreas. I've written to a gynaecologist who published some images showing the natural variation between women, and I've asked if she's willing to release a couple.

The Black Girls video is very moving.
