Really?!
I would have warned if I thought it was an issue at all. Do others also think the small thumbnail of the Go Ogle design is NSFW? I doubt I would have warned even with a larger thumbnail but maybe I'm miscalibrated...
- ryanelkins 17y agoI generally go by the "how would I feel if my boss walked by and saw my screen" test. While it's not huge, it is fairly obvious, even from a distance, exactly what it is. To be fair, I didn't really understand the subtitle, particularly where it mentioned "risque".

- joubert 17y agoDo they also block the world's art museums?
- lmkg 17y agoThe fact that it's tasteful art doesn't change that it's nudity. If 1% of the population will get offended, it's best to at least put up a warning.
- joubert 17y agoWho is offended by nude art? The world's museums are packed with nude art. Porn is a different matter.
- pyre 17y ago> Who is offended by nude art? Uptight Bible-thumpers that are only afraid of the fact that seeing a nude woman makes them feel uncomfortable so the only logical reaction is, "Hulk Smash!" {edit} I should add, "and the bureaucrats that are afraid of litigation/boycotts/bad publicity from the Bible-thumpers" {edit2} I could include Quran-thumpers too, but they don't have huge representation in the US. Maybe moreso in Europe though?

- ryanelkins 17y agoWinning an argument with your boss or HR person over whether it is art or not is pointless when you're being fired. Nudity in the workplace is generally frowned upon. Whether that is right or wrong is another point entirely.
- joubert 17y agoI never argued that nudity in the workplace is appropriate. It is, however, pathetic to be offended by nudity in and of itself. There's a distinction between pornography and nudity. Think breast-feeding.
