I don't think it matters. We see it in a page saying "disables hottie". And then we see a seemingly disabled person, which is thought to be conventionally hot. It's good enough.

The words above are to be read as if they are narrated by Morgan Freeman.

Not really, powers don't really give off the disabled part of it.

I don't think it distracts at all...but in any case, let's just run a crowner.

I take it that Real Life examples are a no-go? I'm thinking about a certain paralympian example.

[up] Hmmm...good choice. I found some other pics, since all those pics on that website are explicitly copyrighted. 1, 2, 3, 4

I don't like it at all. It makes it out that the Braniac infection is the central focus of the image, which, for this trope, it shouldn't be.

Anyway, here's Shiba again, cropped more.

And no, I'd really prefer a fictional example for this (and all the other "hot [whatever]" tropes.

I really don't like the chick with her boobs falling out. That's not hot. That's just slutty and it's really toeing the NSFW line more than we need to in this image.

Impossibly Low Neckline with no actual nipples or anything beyond what is considered a-okay for a teens manga is considered "NSFW"?

There's standards, and then there's being a prude.

It's tits for the sake of tits and it's the only bit of her that shows the hottie bit. I really just think we can be classier than shoving boobs in people's faces. I'm not a prude. I don't mind sexual images in the least. I just think that we should avoid being tacky. That image is tacky.

Ok, I don't see that as being NSFW.

Though I still think Oracle is a better example. And she has my vote, but I don't think Kukaku is THAT NSFW, and I have an incredibly prudish boss.

I mean yeah...if more of her boobs were showing or it was like a string bikini or something...then yeah.

But no.

My vote still goes to Oracle. I think she's the best example.

[up][up][up] Do you work? I'm seriously asking because depending on where you are, something like that could easily get you hauled in for a lecture or worse, depending on the environment and how strict or lenient your supervision is...we can't always avoid risque material but when we can, we should. Like marheaven, I don't think it's all that bad of a pic, but it's not us that we have to be careful about.

EDIT: Hmmm...the vote total for the leading Oracle pic is borked, it should be +6.

It's a trope about someone being "hot". While that's certainly subjective, as long as it's SFW, anything that falls within that range should be acceptable.

And I don't care what you say, that's not NSFW. Skimpy clothing =/= NSFW.

Not Safe for Work means things that would get me in trouble if my boss saw them. That picture falls into that category. I personally don't find it upsetting, but I know that it's more skin than should be on my work comp even during my break. I would really rather we steered towards a more generally acceptable image.

I'm not seeing any images on that link.
You have to mouse over the names on the page, and then click on the pics that show up. I like the ones I linked to better.
