So you believe in your unalienable right to post pictures of naked flesh on SuperTopo. Good for you.
For the rest of us who sometimes read the forum from work, it would be really nice if such content were labeled as work-inappropriate.
NSFW stands for 'Not Safe For Work' and is used elsewhere on the web. Just label your nekkid-pics threads this way in the thread title, please. And no one needs to get hurt.

Sound advice.
The only problem is that the original poster can't even edit the thread title. The OP has no control over the thread content. Furthermore, it is fairly clear that we can't count on all to comply since some don't know the difference.
But it would be good for Chris and RJ to figure out, since most workplaces will block sites with objectionable material.
I suppose they could add a "Offensive Material" button that anybody could click on. It is probably most correctly their call.

NWS labels are pretty standard fare on forums of all types across the interwebs. I'm on some pretty raunchy forums (I gotta tell you internet nerds are making climbers look like a bunch of prudish crybabies) and people put NWS (Not Work Safe) flags around anything that might get someone in trouble, be it links or pics or otherwise. Pretty simple.

Shouldn't you be 'working' at work? That's how we do it....

HAHAHA, yes, work at work!!!
'Climbers' can indeed be made to look like prudes and namby-pambys.
Most Climbers I have known cannot.
When a girl in a bikini is NSFW, then society has deteriorated to an alarming degree, and is going to get worse.
All hail the American TAliban!

I have no problems with women. I was just trying to make a point that if you're not working, doesn't some other slob have to make up for your lazy, nonworking, surfing-when-you should-be-working? If you're not working, go home!
