Breastfeeding Pictures Removed from Facebook, Spark Protests
One day in October, Sheri Farley of Provo, Utah, had a photo removed from the social networking website Facebook. The photo was of her breast-feeding her baby. Confused, she posted another photo and then received a letter from Facebook threatening to delete her account. Enranged, she went public with the incident. “I felt bullied,” said Farley, of Provo, Utah, who decided to protest while she was in California for the holidays visiting in-laws. Her challenge drew support from other Facebook critics and lactation advocates. Among the pickets Saturday were her mother-in-law, Sheri Farley of Placer County, who breast-fed her eight children and now boasts that 19 of her 20 grandchildren have been nursed. Farley sent an email to Facebook asking why the photos were removed. Her letter was never answered. Facebook’s removal of the pictures has now sparked a massive online debate. People have come to the networking giant to comment, argue, and protest what defines ‘too much exposure of a breast.’ Facebook spokesman Barry Schnitt said the website takes no action over most breast-feeding photos because they follow the site’s terms of use but others are removed to ensure the site remains safe and secure for all users, including children. “Photos containing a fully exposed breast (as defined by showing the nipple or areola) do violate those terms (on obscene, pornographic or sexually explicit material) and may be removed,” he said in a statement. “The photos we act upon are almost exclusively brought to our attention by other users who complain.”
