Re: Are fine artworks in European museums deemed NSFW by forum rules?
I didn't remove it but ask yourself this: would that artwork or something like it belong in the workplace, or would you feel comfortable looking at a picture like that at work? I doubt it. Just because something is 'art' or in a museum doesn't mean it's SFW.
Thank you for your reply. No, I would not mind being seen at work or otherwise publicly looking at a Courbet painting. Neither would the employees at the museum where it is on public display. Neither would anyone else who is not an ignorant rube. Indeed, it is hilariously ridiculous to suggest that this forum has higher standards than this workplace:

This forum isn't a museum. A 16-man gangbang is a place of work but it doesn't belong in the office, nor do images of it even if they were painted by Courbet or any other French painter. You can certainly browse as many pictures as you want in your office if that so pleases you, but a lot of people here don't work in a museum or the Vatican and a lot of users likely won't want to be caught with vaginas on their screen - art or not - not to mention a lot of bosses and co-workers probably wouldn't appreciate it either. Sadly, I'm sure just calling them 'ignorant uncultured rubes' wouldn't save them from their jobs or a disciplinary warning either.

Have you heard the fine works of William Frederick Durst? I particularly like the third movement of his seminal work: Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water entitled "My Generation" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BE9CXWV1alg
The entire album is a masterpiece of nu metal. 128kbs mp3 is available if you're interested.
In my professional life, and socially for me, it has also always been unacceptable to call someone “a cunt”.
Have you thought that some people might find it unnaceptable to look at pictures of vaginas too, regardless of who they were painted by? It looks like people have differing standards. Who would have thought not everyone thinks the same? So just to clarify, the word Cunt bad, but pictures of painted cunt ok? Gotcha.
In professional and social contexts, what I would want to avoid is to be associated with the massive amount of mass-mind, low-class cheap trash that gets posted here, such as non-nude “sexy” pics of tarts who look like streetwalkers—and also, all the photos of marijuana and cocaine that oft get posted to the Wall Observer.
And in professional and social contexts a lot of people probably don't want to see vaginas either, just like you probably wouldn't browse this forum in those circumstances. What would your associates say if they saw you looking at vile pictures of street-walkers and the evil devil's lettuce/dust? How ghastly! I'm not sure why you're even wasting time here wallowing in the mire with all us mere peons since this is all obviously below you.
