Elonë, A Woman In Germany, Is Posting Feminist Messages On Pads Throughout Her City — PHOTOS

Truth: Graffiti is a time-honored tradition, dating all the way back to Ancient Greece. (Although I’m unconvinced what MTA calls scratiti—the physically engraved block letters as made in thick paint, usually reading some variation of a four-letter word—qualifies as dignified or reverent.) However, the practice’s importance amps up in some cases—like when the person holding the can of spray paint has an inspired mission in mind. Street art, however, can (and increasingly often, does) extend way beyond the paint can: Elonë, a woman from Karlsruhe, Germany, is swapping out the paint for pads to make a point about feminism.
