Porno avatars

Want them for updating your LJ and replying to comments? It's your right.

But please don't use your Kermit-humping-a-plushie or naked-man-sitting-in-chair icon to post in a group, or comment on someone elses's post. Not all people really need to see it. If its your own LJ, as I said before, that really is one thing - people can choose who they view on their flist. But otherwise... no.

Besides the worksafe thing why does it bother you so much? You don't have a problem with profanity nor voilent icons, just sexual ones?

Also, is it possible to turn icons off or block them? I kind of would like to do so, but I really don't know how.

Gotta echo this inquiry. Why Amy, why?

Because I don't want my parents walking in. Plus, its just... I don't know. I am uncofmrortable with it. As I said, it's okay if others aren't - and if its someone's actual LJ, fine. But if not, they need to respect that anyone can see.

Besides, Kermit having sex with a plushie is a little disturbing too. You've gotta admit that.

So it's disturbing. What isn't these days? Frankly, I find that a lot less unsettling than the mainstream porn that dominates our culture.

But if it isn't your LJ why should it matter? Shouldn't it be up to the person who LJ it is to say I don't mind or I do?

Although I can understand the parents thing, but honestly the icons are so small that you can just scroll past them.
