Sylvia,
Thanks so much for the link to that article, it was great. Not only that but
the site also includes a lot of the top 10 items from TIME which is really
interesting.
I quote from that article:

"Facebook counters that it is far from the only organization steering clear
of Areola City. "Could I place an ad related to breast-feeding that showed a
woman breast-feeding a child but exposed her full breast in TIME or on your
website?" asks spokesman Barry Schnitt. "During the course of this protest,
I've called many media organizations and asked them this question. Not a
single one has said yes."

I love how so many people create their own statistics. I wonder how many
media organizations he actually DID call.
And while on the topic of double standard - what on earth is National
Geographic????? I bet that as long as the breasts often shown there are
attached to poverty stricken, multi-coloured, women from obscure tribes,
then wow, that is nature. but can you just imagine if National Geographic
would publicize an
Article on white middle class breasts?????? Probably would be the best thing
they could do to increase circulation and Westerners would purchase it, to
gawk and of course then to protest!!!
