So could a lot of classic art, right?

  As an European with non-censored History books in my teenage years, that nudity was... boring. Women just lying in a bench with... dull, bland, faded out colours. I would need far more to get laid.

    My anthology book had a few pages from Ulysses by Lob & Pichard. I went to a catholic school.

      My daughters went to a Catholic all girls high school. The translated Catallus 16 in Latin class. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catullus_16 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catullus_16 I don’t think anyone considered that the Latin syllabus might be a cause for concern.

    As an European with non-censored History books in my teenage years, that nudity was... ok because I was working from home today. This picture isn’t sexual at all but it’s still Not Safe For Work in the strictest sense. I still wouldn’t have opened it in the open space :)

  Sure, unless your job is in a museum. Thing is though, if you can get in trouble for browsing the internet while at work looking at anything at all, you probably shouldn't.

I think you are being voted down but I disagree. I opened the article before the tag was added and although I very much appreciate the author's point, I think the added tag is necessary. Would be hard to argue any form of nudity appearing on my computer screen even it were an artwork I feel. The tag has been added. Society is tricky, nudity on the internet more so.

For those who are now fearful to click the link, its an opinion piece about the given topic, and it's illustrated with a stock photo of a nude pregnant woman. The author's point is that this nudity is not pornography. So it's not "adult content", but probably "NSFW" unless you work in a maternity hospital. Just as a comparator, the Wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pregnancy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pregnancy leads with a clothed pregnant woman (unlike the pages on e.g. labia, penis, anus, breast, which lead with a direct shot of the body part), and overall that page has photos or illustrations of 4 clothed and 3 nude women (and a CT scan volume render, does that count as nude or not?)
