I'm sorry but i don't find the problem in this article.

*I can't open the [[vagina]] article at work either, because of the really

The article is about vagina. The only picture there who might be "NSFW" is
this one: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Azvag.jpg who only shows
what are the anatomy of a vagina. I find very educational.

And BTW, if you don't want to see a vagina, don't open the article.

No it was not. There are in fact a category in commons (
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Vagina ) and in that category i
found the image who replaced the Image you dislike so
much<http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Human_vulva_with_visible_vaginal_opening.jpg>.
But not because you don't like, because the one in the article now is more
clear.
