WNBR is a protest, and an awareness raising event and should not be used by people to promote their profit making efforts, sexual or otherwise. IMHO. I have personally been attacked relentlessly over the years yet have never make one single penny from anything I've ever done with a camera, WNBR-related or otherwise. Respect works both ways.
It took me a good number of years of covering WNBR events before I realised just how many (usually female) participants essentially use these rides to promote their sexual commercial enterprises.
If I had a quid for every time someone had 'stolen' one of my photos, I'd have enough money to fund my own river of tears. If it's out there, it's out there. Do what you want with it.

Perfectly said!
I've been saying it for years. Its not only the hoardes of photogs that have ruined this event, its the likes of "Lucy Muse" and others like her. I am all for sex work, but WNBR is not the place for people to sell, promote, or create content. All it does it alienate normal women and push them out of the picture.
