Don't get me wrong, I like manga and anime as well. And it's not about gender equality. It's that these type of images (unhealthy big breasts, trying to force their way out of way too tight clothes) give a unwelcoming impression to women.

Even if a lot of your friends tell you "I don't mind", believe me, deep inside they feel at least slighty uncomfortable. Women learn to pretend, because if you speak up, you'll be excluded. It's that simple.

Next time you need to choose an image for your project, ask yourself: "whats the message I want to get across" and "do I realy need boobs for it?"

And if the second answer is yes, you'd be better working on a page for lingerie ;)
