Why does Yahoo allow porno on here?

There are Federal guidlines for the viewing of adult photos by minors. Apparently Yahoo does not care that minors (children) are able to view totally nude photos posted by a member on here-Edna Bambrick- today several times. Many have complained and reported the poster and still the pictures remain. What is Yahoo's problem? This is vile and disgusting, against the law and really exposes children to trash on here. I am so sicken by this. Take you kids off of this site is this is what Yahoo is now going to allow. This is a totally nude, spread eagle photo of an adult woman by the way.

Update:

If you want to see this pictures...look at my answers today and please report this poster and complain to Yahoo. Sorry for the typos in my question, I am just so upset.

Update 2:

To the "idiot" posters below and you know who you are lol First I am not a parent. But I am concerned with the welfare and well being of all children which obviously you are not. So don't assume anything because your statements are incorrect. Secondly, you cannot filter the icon/photos next to someone's name in here. Thirdly I do not believe that nude pictures of anyone belong on this site. And I don't have to look at nude pictures of my favorute hunk, whatever the hell that is. I have a real, living 3-D hunk to look at everyday. And lastly since Yahoo allows minor on here, the content needs to be monitored.

Update 3:

Greg R. I happen to have a Master's degree. Have you finished high school yet? And you are wrong there are FCC and Federal guidlines that prohibit the viewing of these photos, and this photo does fall under porn, by minors, those under the age of 18. So YOU are the uninformed one. How you can compare some women sitting naked and spread eagle to great art which is on exhibit in a museum for God's sake is beyond me. Shows what you like to look at all day. lol And your little tyrade about war and the government shows further proof of your I.Q. Pathetic.

    Do you always blame others for not doing what you should be doing or what parents should be doing? And by the way, what is your definition of porn? Porn to me is seeing the mutilated, amputated bodies of people in the middle of wars - why is it that you, and others like you, never complain about THAT kind of porn.? It fits your definition - war images are vile and disgusting, "against the law", and exposes children to trash. Do you turn off the tv or prevent them from seeing these images on the news, in magazines or on the web? By the way, photos of nude women is not against the law just because they are against your "principles". And it is clear you have never been to Europe or Brazil and many other places where women being nude is not unusual. What you are really complaining about here is that you and others like you are bad parents, but because you don't know otherwise, or are intolerant of freedom of expression, you blame others for exposing the realities of the real world. My guess is, you didn't go to college, have never been to an art museum, studied art ( good and bad ), or other alternative forms of expression. And would you be complaining ( so ignorantly) if the photo was of your favorite 'hunk'?

    Any search engine will allow you to filter what you can and cant view. There are many more than Yahoo that will allow you to view it. If you wish to not view it, choose to use the filtered search. So it's def not just Yahoo. Google has it too. It sucks, and sometimes I forget to use filter, and i get the nastiest things.. It is sickening.
