To be fair, 0xDEADBEEF may be considered offensive to hindus.
I'm bothered by what lowest common non-offensive denominator we will eventually have to reach. Is 0xCAFEBABE not only offensive to women but is it also offensive to male Starbucks employees?
I don't have the answers. I don't even think I know what the questions are. I just weep for society as a whole over stuff like this.

"but is this the reason to harm art?" No. But it's a damn good reason to keep your so-called "art" out of the workplace. Keep your "art" in the galleries where it belongs.
Why would we? Because you tell us so? Guess what - you fit the profile; "people who are afraid of any life because life is non-professional". Making you feel uncomfortable might cure you one day, we're be trying like Hippocrates supposed us to. Galleries are the places where art dies. If you'll consult art history, you'll not see much straight-to-gallery art. It had some purpose. It was built into lives. Modern art s…
I suppose you would also support putting up racial epithets in a corporate lobby and calling it "art"?
Surely this can't be worth all the oh-noes.
That's a horrible way to talk about Steve Ballmer.

No, I just get upset when women are reduced to sex objects, particularly in a context where people are forced to endure it because they have to work for a living. I suppose you would also support putting up racial epithets in a corporate lobby and calling it "art"?
I feel like some kind of infernal being talking to me right now.
How do big boobs reduce women (which women? how many of them? what's their names?) to sex objects? What's a sex object anyway? Are you supposed to deny the existence of big boobs to prevent it? What happens if truth leaks?
This is exactly a set of questions that DOES NOT cross the mind of people who drop "women are reduced to sex objects" in the conversations. You are afraid to think. You want to club people with blocks over their heads.
That's why art is a good thing. Is reflects the damage back to you. You desperately need to make peace with your sexuality; and once you do, the shadows will disappear and big boobs will be just big boobs and nothing more.
I hope that viewing those pieces I've linked will make you a happier and calmer person. Cheers and good night.

There are people who were sexually injured - but then again, people die of hunger. Should we not eat or talk about food since it would offend famine victims?
"Puerile sniggering at breasts contributes to the continuing impression that software development is a boys club where girls aren't welcome" This is a primary building block of such articles. But in fact magic numbers are kind of art: good art shocks you a little - or a lot; more for people who are less free. Who gets offended by big boobs? People who think they are religious, as if Jesus had anything against boobs;…

Just sayin'. I was shocked to find it out, too, since I use those a bit.
