I feel exactly the same way. This is an insult to the people who value the
educational spirit of Commons.

I attempted to argue that the image didn't meet the featured criteria of
Commons, but was drowned out by voters such as the one who argued without
irony, "{{Support}} I like her big tits".

Whether or not Commons should host such images is really a separate argument
than whether we want to feature topless anime as the best of the content we
have.
