pornography
Still or moving images, usually of women, in varying states of nudity, posing or performing erotic acts
with men, women, animals or other props. Some say it degrades
women, some say it corrupts young boys (who down-load it from
{bulletin board systems} or exchange it on {floppy disks}).
Much of it is in the form of {GIF} images, or, increasingly
{JPEG} images. There are even pornographic games, an early
example being {Mac Playmate}.
Beware - many institutions, particularly universities, have
strict rules against their computers and networks being used
to transfer or store such things, and you might get corrupted.
