Phoebe, of ~10 deleted images which I opened, statistics is around:
* 4 cartoons which represents different sexual acts (made for
illustration of sexual acts in Wikipedia articles)
* 2 naked women (porn stars)
* 1 naked man
* 1 Second Life sexual act
* 1 Second Life commercial (I suppose so)
* 1 art work
Just the naked man could be from "personal collection", while it was
obviously that photo was made carefully, not to fully show face, but
to show body for educational purposes.
