Surely you can hide it for 10-30 minutes until it's knocked off the page?

# frankly it is NSFW
I have to abide by the IT policy here

# Does your IT policy
allow you to spend hours on B3TA?

Frankly, compared to half of the stuff on here, that is really safe.

(It is also bloody great!)

# That's no reason to impose one company's IT policy onto b3ta.
Images are modified if people try and post porn, if your company is too strict then don't look.

I really doubt mofaha was trying to push the boundaries with this picture.

# You know
I'm very sensitive to the issue, and I really don't want to be a dick, but people dress like that at the mall. I don't think there's any way it could be mistaken for pornography. Unless there are other complaints or a mod hides it, I'm disinclined to link it. If you really think it's too much you're welcome to put me on ignore until it's gone. Please understand that I'm not offended and I don't have an issue with you. I hope you feel the same way.

# alright
I just be careful not to hit the 'top' button

EDIT: I know but the fact it is on the computer makes it more likely to be pornography

but it is OK chap

# "the fact it is on the computer makes it more likely to be pornography"
eh?

So something that is in print is less likely to be pr0n?

This makes absolutely no sense.

# NSFW shouldn't have to accommodate individual workplaces.
If it looked like porn, it'd be NSFW. But it doesn't.

If he links it, he's doing so purely out of niceness.

not safe for work?
(Groop Water Flea = Daphnia, Fri 5 May 2006, 7:35, archived)
# The Sun
isn't safe anywhere.

Personally, as a woman I get fucked off having to sit opposite men on the train looking at Page 3. I'm sure you wouldn't be that happy if everywhere you went women were looking at pictures of men with rippling torsos and massive cocks. Its just a little uncomfortable.

Don't get me wrong, I'm totally fine with porn, i just don't see why news papers should have soft porn in them.

# Im not pro The Sun
just aware that its all over the place especially places of work, just pointing out the double standards (no pun intended)
(Groop Water Flea = Daphnia, Fri 5 May 2006, 8:02, archived)
# I think part of the problem is that
a picture like that is very noticeable on your monitor. Its very obviously not work. Not only is it not work but its a woman's arse, basically. It might not be porn, but if your boss is walking past s/he probably wont stop and say 'ooh! Nice vectors, wow. I wish i could do vectors like that, how splended!'.
It would more likely be 'get on with the damn work you're paid for' or 'honey, you're sacked'.

I don't have a massive problem with this image in particular (well, any more than i have problems with all images that just turn women into objects), but i can see his point. Having said that, if things are that bad, look at b3ta without the pictures, or, worse, actualy do some work.

Or is that just ridiculous?
Yeah, ok, that is just stupid

# I would have disagreed with you a few months ago
but I have recently been trapped in an office (200+) employees where I was one of three straight men. There were filthy pinups everywhere, and I have to admit that it made me feel uncomfortable when I was trying to have a serious discussion while other people were looking at gay porn.

I'm not really sure what point I was trying to make here.

I'm self employed at the moment, but things are drying up so I think I'm going to have to be a corporate whore for a few more months. Oh well.
