The problem with that is that it would block _all_ images, not just wikipedia.
Here's what I propose:
For all images that might offend people, wrap them in <div id="offensive"> or something. Then, someone could write a javascript hack that if the user selects it, it hides those images. If that works, it could go into the user preferences.

Maybe we need a larger, more prominent disclaimer:
"WIKIPEDIA MAY COVER SUBJECTS OR CONTAIN MATERIAL WHICH OFFENDS YOU. IF THIS IS THE CASE, PLEASE GO READ SOMETHING ELSE. IT'S NOT GETTING CHANGED TO SUIT YOU."
In the proud tradition of dead horse kicking I am pleased to note that the "Image-Show-Hide" Firefox add-on works well:
