There is no doubt in my mind that some people saw that cover and started wondering if the graph was from porn.

(Just look at it: white-on-black, low resolution, questionable relevance, hugely out of place in comparison to the other elements. All highly suspect.)

Sooooooo who wants to support my indiegogo campaign for a series of “learn math through porn” videos?

Learn math and you too can be white or Japanese! They couldn’t find a picture of one Thai person in front of a chalkboard? Admittedly, contemporary education seems to be failing there.

It sure is a good thing those eagle eyed teachers prevented the students from seeing a fully clothed woman reading from a book. They could have been scarred for life if they found out that the woman had also appeared in adult films.

Imagine how hurt you would be if someone told you after the fact that a picture of a woman was actually of a porn actress? You would be scarred for life and probably unfit for marriage. That is how much power porn has. Utterly inconsequential tertiary exposure is enough to destroy a person.

Of course there is some awkwardness for the whistle blower in acknowledging how they knew this was sourced from a pornographic movie. Thank goodness for “friends.”

You know how to whistle, don’t you, Steve?

It’s probably not the reason they pulled the cover, but it would arguably actually have been reasonable had it been on the basis that the image was lifted without copyright clearance or attribution to the porn producer, and they didn’t want to square up by including a copyright notice to a porn company.

IKR? I’m partial to pigtail porn too.

I was kind of hoping instead of Mana Aoki, the model was Ume Aoki.

No doubt! I figured the pig-tailed “student” was from some Nordic cinema.

Now, will someone explain the photo of the man who can write perfectly legible equations backwards?

There’s probably porn for that, too.

You realize that she’s completely naked under all those clothes right?

Well, they certainly could have learned some mathematics from it if it were porn…

At least it wasn’t a screenshot from “Raising Arizona”
