What the fuck is it with the censoring of words in these images? Can't "vagina" be said anymore?

Vagina.
But it looks like she's showing her vulva
Edit to add, I just noticed how tiny her feet are
Glad someone corrected this pet peeve
Edit to add, I just noticed how tiny her feet are
I think her toes are covered by the caps of her sandals.
Even so, her palm is about as wide as her foot long, it's probably 10cm heel to toe
Modern corporate internet speak is censored speech. Can't upset advertisers. The worst thing about it is that people are starting to do it on their own unprompted, being good conditioned consumers.
If this is actually a thing (and noone has proven it is) then there is no fucking way that the same penalties don't apply to "censored" content like this.

The word itself makes some men uncomfortable.
Best part is this demon wouldn't even be setting her vagina. He would be seeing her vulva
It's for appeasing advertisers. People assume their posts are being disadvantaged by the algorithms on social media, and in consequence fewer people will see the posts and engage with them. The algorithms eventually do what ad companies want from them.
It's a trick to drive engagement. Posts with a tame word like this censored gets posts from people who object to or are confused by the censorship. Then others start responding saying that the censorship makes sense or doesn't undermine the basic point of the post. It doesn't really matter on a site like lemmy, but on a Meta platform it increases clicks and therefore income.
probably harvested from reddit and repost here. which is fine, I do that myself for some comms sometimes, but inevitably it will get comments like yours

Vagina.
Vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina.
There.
Downvoting for censor the word vagina. Fucking stupid.
Waaa he said the word!
Seriously.
It is depicting anasyrma. In some cultures that has traditionally had the power to ward of evil (for example in mine, it has had the power to protect and curse. It is called "harakointi" in Finnish).
Thankyou, informative and also funny "just show the cunny storm will subside i promise!"
I found a new premise for a Dresden Files book. Finally, his misogynistic powers can be used for good!
Never knew there was a specific term for it! That’s interesting
With her "violin"?
Viola
Ah, that makes sense.
Seems like it started with a v and end with an a. With her hand at that position and the demon looking there, i'd say she scare her with her vodka. Scary stuff indeed.
Everyone forgets about violas.
It's a vuvuzela and it's terrifying!
Censorship aside, some cultures believe that images of vulvas frighten away evil spirits because they're symbolic of life. So who knows? That might work.
Her minuscule feet scares me more.
A gay demon obviously.
That only works for old Gregg though.
Downvoted for censorship!
I ain't afraid of no man. But that thing.. it scares me.
HELP!
I've been possessed by a demon. The only way to exorcise it is to have women show me their vaginas. It's a sacrifice I'm willing to take.

Came here to say the same thing. What dumbass censoring
Censored for all the Satanists on lemmy.
Great now I'm horny
I always knew conservatives were the demons. So many people fall for them
and she's hung like a heathen.
IS he scared, though? I look exactly the same when I'm about to dive in
Now THAT is serving.
It was mostly the smell, I think.
