Some people are offended by very diverse things.
For example, some people are offended by owls (yes, owls).
Does this mean we should replace pictures of owls with drawings? I
think it really depends. If the concept can be effectively illustrated
by drawings, then yes, even though the people who are offended are a
minority. Some differences in species may be difficult to illustrate
with a drawing, and so photos may be nessecary.

Altough I haven't conducted a scientific study, ... I would be rather
supprised if the people that were highly offended by the nude and
sexual images were not also offended by the drawings. ... certantly
there are people that are offended by the drawings (and by the text
as well).
