These unnecessary photographs of nude people in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hair_growth are gross and offensive, not just to me, but any children that may stumble upon the article. Thanks.

Uh, now the image of the hairy person is deleted. Does someone want to put up another one? Santorummm 00:19, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not censored. Please discuss on talk page before deleting images. This is a good article to have pictures for. Not everyone knows what this looks like. Please add more, someone. User:Svartulfr1 07:31 25 August 2006 (UTC)

The article is informative and helpful as it is. Those with geninue interest in the subject matter are aware of the symptoms and unwanted hair appearance. Photos are unnecessary and inapproriate. Paprsek 17:22, 20 May 2007 (UTC)paprsek

[edit] Treatment

Wikipedia is not the place to be recommending treatment for diseases, especially treatment with specific dosages and no caveats. Furthermore, the information was incorrect (follicular phase is 10-16 days, not 5 days) and unreferenced/unsourced ("recent studies have shown..."). Antelan talk 05:25, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

The picture is offensive to people with this condition! ~~

[edit] Picture

Can we find some better pictures for this article? The picture at the end of the article is a drawing of an animal like women- it doesn't accurately illustrated Hirsutism.. Could we get a picture of [Jennifer Miller] or another woman with hirsutism (it shouldn't be that hard as 10% of women have hirsutism!) CelticLabyrinth (talk) 06:38, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
