The imaged is cropped, but cropping doesn’t remove the context of the image, and it isn’t worth the risk of making women feel less welcome in tech, which is a big problem already.
If I may, why is it so important to you that the image continues to be used over other images, against the wishes of Lena and IEEE?
Okay, so we’ll change that pic with one of a girl with an exposed shoulder, but that’s cropped from a girl with a shirt on! That way the context isn’t so horrible and you, and many other girls who would otherwise drop out of STEM fields, can rest easy.
It’s not important to me at all. I’ve only seen the photo a couple times in some Wikipedia pages. I’m just saying that the reason to remove it is stupid. Idgaf if they remove it or not.
