- Not sexually explicit just as fellatio, irrumatio, cunnilingus, sodomy, masturbation, or coitus are not, fist fucking, blowjob, throat fucking, cunt eating, ass fuckin, jacking off, and fucking are. Having these terms presents the knowledge to laymen on how to professionally describe terms that are difficult to communicate without offense but these terms are clinical and sexological in nature and have a place on wotd.Lucifer (talk) 02:54, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

- Well the German Wikipedia once featured an article about the vulva (with pictures!) so it's not unprecedented, but that was enormously controversial and I don't really want to go there. Word of the Day is meant to showcase the entire entry as well as just the word's meaning so the pictures on the entry do have to be unobjectionable.... —Internoob 00:12, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
- How bout we just do brachiovaginal then? The image is more professional than the amateur anal fisting shot. Controversy is subjective and it could attract more readers and contributors. I don't find vulvas objectionable, in fact most people on the planet have one and at one point or another have inserted their own or others peoples fingers or even hands or fists inside their vagina. I do find Christianity terribly objectionable, I dislike muslims and ghetto black people, and so large majorities of people around the world, but that doesn't mean we would avoid a koranic term or one from African American Vernacular English, but we can go ahead and collapse the image, anyone that wants to see a picture can choose to.Lucifer (talk) 07:36, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
