The respondants have no control over their work place policies regarding internet usage. This image can get people fired. You may not be a prude but you obviously lack empathy, compassion and simple common sense.

Gloria Steinem's Architect?

It's a waste of time to explain it to them. Just set Firefox to block all the images from the Stranger, and unblock them at home.

Now, can somebody clear up for me why pregnancy is where the rubber meets the road with respect to structuralist feminism?

Lots of employers don't care how you spend your time, as long as you are productive. And all but the meanest ones let you browse the web on your break or at lunch. When you're older, you'll have experienced this. The problem is that when people walk past and see naked ladies on your screen, your boss is almost always forced to do something about it. Hence, the best thing is to block images and nobody will be unhappy.

You don't like it - go surf the Sesame Street website. Otherwise - tough (in this case) titties.
