Personality conflicts aside, we're noting that non-sexual search terms in 
Commons can prominently return sexual images of varying explicitness, from mild 
nudity to hardcore, and that this is different from entering a sexual search 
term and finding that Google fails to filter some results.

I posted some more Commons search terms where this happens on Meta; they 
include 

Black, Caucasian, Asian; 

Male, Female, Teenage, Woman, Man; 

Vegetables; 

Drawing, Drawing style; 

Barbie, Doll; 

Demonstration, Slideshow; 

Drinking, Custard, Tan; 

Hand, Forefinger, Backhand, Hair; 

Bell tolling, Shower, Furniture, Crate, Scaffold; 

Galipette – French for "somersault"; this leads to a collection of 1920s 
pornographic films which are undoubtedly of significant historical interest, 
but are also pretty much as explicit as any modern representative of the genre.
