1. "Cute" might not be such a good word.
You mean it in a nice way, but these are tough, smart, strong women, and have undoubtedly lived through a lot. They might not appreciate the label "cute".

I'm quite fond of page 8,someone is quite visibly giving the 'one fingered salute.' Love it!

The young man that shaved a peace sign onto his chest is another stand out!
