Energy field (link maybe NSFW?)

physics girl phd

My spouse and our son M asked me about work and energy, and they didn't like my circular definition: energy is the ability to do work; and work occurs when one object applies a force on another, changing its energy. (even discussing microscopic things like heat, bonds, etc.) so when I looked up energy and work definitions in Google, I got this link, with THIS IMAGE of "energy field"

(Thank goodness M wasn't looking over my shoulder.)

I didn't quite know where I'd put this in PF, but I thought this forum would be most appropriate since it's perhaps most X-rated (even though the drawn woman is clothed in exercise garb and sh is only is shown from the rear).

On my screen, you have to scan down to see the full image, and it almost makes me feel like I'm playing the version "strip poker" that we found on our Trash 80 (where the female opponents are imaged in ASCII... and presumably you aren't really stripping at home by yourself when you play against them). That's why I note the "link maybe NSFW?" warning.

So what exactly is wrong with your son seeing a women in an exercise garb, and what exactly would make this picture more heinous seen from front than from back ? Do you think it will damage him in some mysterious ways ?

Truth be told, if our society comes to depict a women in exercise attire as NSFW, something is deeply wrong with it. If that image is NSFW, seeing any women in any attire is NSFW. Going on the street is NSFW. Some seem to define the mere looks of a women as NSFW.

The only thing i see wrong in that picture is that it has nothing to do with energy as defined by science. I think its related to some sort of healing with energy thing or whatever.
Your issue with the picture is that she is in exercise garb? Whats wrong with that? I certainly didn't think anything X rated about the picture.

If that's the worst thing you've seen on the internet you're not using it right.

On another note it's not a sexualised picture, merely a diagram showing some religious/pseudo-medical energy fields of the body. Complete tosh in other words

IMO gender feminism damaged women self respect in such a degree that is hard for some females to see any depiction of a women body. Those who fall in this category see menaces to women in every marketing campaign, in every movie, in every picture or drawing of a woman. It is a great shame when a women defines a depiction of a female body as NSFW. Especially when clothed, and just a sketch.

Well, lets not judge too harshly. We aren't the OP and have no idea what her values are or how she was raised.

My opinion is general, and steams from my perception of gender feminism, and it's obsession with sex and their perceived image of women. It has nothing to do with the OP in any way whatsoever, it is not a criticism of her, but of the perception of a female in exercise attire as NSFW.

All is left now is to blame NASA of sending porn into space as a greeting to an extraterrestrial intelligence. Oh, wait, it already happened. How the hell did some groups of humans came to be ashamed by human biology ? How can some humans grow so negatively obsessed with their own biological build ? The criticism of Pioneer plaque which depicted naked male and female humans is IMO a criticism against nature and science.

Am what is the OP's question?
