IMO, this section of the Commons Sexually explicit content policy was well received by most people discussing it. It is only controversial among a subsection of editors who do image categorizing in this area and want the issue to be black and white that everything in the image should be identified and add to the matching category.

This seems reasonable to me, though I'm a little wary of drawing the line so firmly just in case there's a case I'm not thinking of where sexual image would best illustrate something on a non-sexual page.

So do we all agree that the Principle of Least Astonishment needs to be encoded into some kind of policy or guideline? In other words, images with a sexual context should only appear in articles/categories that also have a sexual context.
