Is [[File:David_von_Michelangelo.jpg|50px]] included in 'nudity', given that it's a block of stone and not a live human, and a classic work of art at that? Is [[File:The_Kiss.JPG|50px]] included in 'sex', given that they're not having sex, but they are kissing while naked? Is [[File:Japanese_traditional_swimwear_FUNDOSHI_red_rokushaku_back_photomodel_fthong_1.jpg|50px]] included in 'nudity' given that everything is visible except a very small area of gluteal cleft? Is [[File:C_W_Eckersberg_1841_-_Kvinde_foran_et_spejl.jpg|50px]] included, given that a small area of gluteal cleft ''is'' visible? Are [[File: |

Are [[File:Laceration,_leg.jpg|50px]] and [[File:Footpuncture.JPG|50px]] included in 'gruesome medical images'? Some people are pretty squeamish you know? [[File:KartBurnRightArm.JPG|50px]] makes me wince because I can tell it must have hurt, so will I be permitted to hide it? Does [[File:Skulptur_tuebingen_vulva_cropped_.jpg|50px]] count as nudity? What about [[File:KdVQueenOfMean.jpg|50px]]? What does an image of semen come (no pun intended) under, if it is not a sexual image, but a simple depiction of white fluid in a puddle? If it counts as sexual, do microscopic images of sperm? If not, at what level of zoom are the harmful sex rays attenuated? [[User:Beorhtwulf|Beorhtwulf]] 15:53, 23 August 2011 (UTC) |
