Wallpapers are images intended to be used on the desktop of a computer system, as a background. In geek communities, many wallpapers show naked or scantily clad women, often in sexual positions. The preponderance of these images, and acceptance of them, is an issue for geek women because it contributes to a Sexualized environment.
