What an unexpected reaction to a predictable action Roll Eyes

Getting a bit more serious, yes, it is indeed art and that particular one displayed in museums. But this is a forum, not a museum; and the fact that it's art doesn't imply that it's SFW. Not only that, but also when you visit a museum, you do so willingly, knowing or at least expecting what you are about to see; if you happen to open a thread while you are having your morning coffee, it's safe to assume you are not expecting to see a big drawn cunt on your screen, and I can think of a couple more scenarios in which it wouldn't be the best thing to have at a screen. Rules are there, and they are for a reason, although we may not completely agree with them or their enforcement.

This whole situation would have been avoided with a simple tagged link instead of embedding the image.
