The original thread was about things that make people to _not_ use Linux
for audio. This is the answer. To many eccentric people want world
domination. Inside the Linux communities there's less libre. Often a
hand full of people claim to speak for the whole community.

A lot of averaged people prefer to use a bad OS, simply because the
community are averaged people, so those communities are more libre
compared with most Linux communities.

Some people feel less-than-comfortable with double clicks by default,
with the panel at the bottom by default, with window buttons in the left
corner and even with the display manager by default and grey and blue or
dark on dark isn't a theme everybody does like.

But until now only a woman the OP does know feels offended by this
picture. No woman from this list has written one word about this
"issue". I don't need to ask any woman I know, since I'm sure non of
them will be offended. IMO a default wallpaper only should show naked
women, it's a serious devaluation for each Ferengi to show dressed
women.

I bet that more female humans do like the virtual singer, than male
humans do and I guess that many people misinterpret comics and
especially mangas. Yes, there's much sex and crime in comics, there's
much sex and crime in all arts, but while there are porn mangas, a lot
of that pretty magically girl mangas are about ordinariness in an ideal
world, without even erotic. But as soon as it's really innocent, free
from sexuality, some people smell pedophilia.

More sexism http://divajutta.com/doctormo/ubunchu/walls.html ;).

What I don't like is something that is about Linux, but needs flash
player to be shown. "Read the Japanese original edition of this episode
online. *Flash Player Required." -
http://seotch.wordpress.com/2009/05/26/ubunchu02/
I wonder if the Non-Japanese versions are "mirrored", I've seen people
reading comics in a wrong order, which explains why people tend to
misinterpret comics very often.

It's worse to question, why some people guess this wallpaper does show
sexuality or more worse pedo-porn and even if it should show sexuality
(but not pedo-porn), why there is something bad with sexuality.
The people who like this wallpaper, perhaps don't have evil thoughts.
Maybe the people who will ban this and similar wallpapers have evil
thoughts.

I've got the impression that most people from this list don't care about
this wallpaper, they simply would switch to another wallpaper.
