A young Egyptian female activist today published nude photos of herself on an internet blog as "an act of personal self expression."
In one of the photos, yellow rectangles covered parts of her body. She reportedly says “The yellow rectangles on my eyes, mouth and sex organ resemble censoring of our knowledge, expression and sexuality,”
The pictures were posted earlier today (Sunday 11/13/11), and already have drawn over 30,000 internet views, and lots of comments, many in Arabic, on her Twitter account and Facebook page.
The photos below are from her blog, one set of nude photos could not be posted because it is watermarked.
However, full details on her protest can be found on this news site:
