Agreed.  That's why I support the image filter implementation proposed here:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Image_filter_referendum/en/Categories#general_image_filter_vs._category_system
or
http://goo.gl/t6ly5

Because we seek to accommodate a global audience (comprising people
whose beliefs are extremely diverse), I unreservedly oppose any
implementation necessitating the designation of certain image types
(and not others) as "potentially objectionable" or similar.
