The hashtag #NSFW (not safe for work) acts as both a warning and an
invitation. NSFW tells users, “We dare you to click on this link! And by
the way, don’t do it until after work!” Unlike the specificity of movie and
television advisories (“suggestive dialogue,” “sexual content”), NSFW
signals, nonspecifically, sexually explicit content that ranges from nude
selfies to pornography. NSFW looks at how and why social media content
is tagged “not safe” and shows how this serves to conflate sexual content
and risk. The authors argue that the notion of “unsafety” extends
beyond the risk of losing one’s job or being embarrassed at work to an
unspecified sense of risk attached to sexually explicit media content and
sexual communication in general.
The authors examine NSFW practices of tagging and flagging on a
range of social media platforms; online pornography and its dependence
on technology; user-generated NSFW content—in particular, the dick
pic and associated issues of consent, desire, agency, and social power; the
deployment of risqué humor in the workplace; and sexist and misogynist
online harassment that functions as an enforcer of inequalities. They
argue against the categorical effacement of sexual content by means of
an all-purpose hashtag and urge us to shift considerations of safety from
pictorial properties to issues of context and consent.
