    Please put a trigger warning and a NSFW on this one. Keep in mind some people might want a bit of a warning that the meme they clicked on graphically describes a vagina infection.

      Might as well put that warning on the whole damn Internet. There’s no bumper bowling on the Information Superhighway 😂

      Oh come on. It’s text. You can stop reading at any time. Not everything has to have trigger warnings, which are generally not effective and can in fact be harmful

          What do you mean “it actually is NSFW”? What’s NSFW about it?

              I’m not joking. What makes it not safe for work? It’s text

                Eh, I can see it - like right now I’m posting this from my phone but I’m on my employer’s wifi, some employers might have a problem with what is accessed over their network… Though if that’s the case, pretty much all of Lemmy should probably be considered NSFW…

                  If that’s the standard we use, even being on lemmy is nsfw. The titles/thumbnails/etc.

        I agree with this take. The point of NSFW is pictures, not text. Who’s reading over your shoulder?

          It’s not that people might read it over your shoulders and be offended. It’s the fact that it’s gross and some might not like being exposed to it. Keep in mind there’s been multiple reports about this post.

        I dunno. Some people may not like to read about vaginas seeping pus and would probably appreciate a heads up that the meme contains that.

          This is a shitposting sub. There’s lots of stuff that lots of people don’t want to read. Doesn’t mean every post needs to have a description of what will be in the post. And marking it as NSFW just devalues the point of NSFW

      People arguing whether this is appropriate or not is so stupid. It literally won’t change a thing for those people, but to others it might actually make a difference and save them some trouble. What’s to lose here? Gee

      Yeah! I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.
