My girlfriend won't let me have sexy wallpaper...

put up a pic of her except crop the head off it and make sure it has that clean, just photoshopped look and not the "hey, look at the picture of my kids from my digital camera" look.
 
I dunno, I don't have a 'sexy wallpaper', but, then, never HAVE. Not when I was single, even. Doesn't seem much point to me.

[*] I have respect for women and don't objectify them
[*] It would hurt the feelings of my significant other (wife, now)
[*] Some other good reason
[*] A very sensitive sounding reason
[*] I've had a lot of multi-monitor setups, and there really aren't many good 2560x1024 pics
[*] Hell, I'd never SEE it, anyway, it's a friggin DESKTOP pic - I've got all these windows over it!

Just because you have pr0n playing in a window maximized so that you can't see your desktop doesn't make you any better of a person than those of us who put women on our desktops. 😛

And in response to your first point, the pictures of women posted on desktops are so pretty they're artistic in a sense. The female body is such a tremendously beautiful thing, especially to us men who hold man cards. Don't judge us as objectifying women because we want to appreciate the beauty of nature's art at work.

which one did you want to put up?

Basically, it's like this one, but rather than saying tootsie roll, it says blow pop. It really pissed her off. 😛

You should find better pictures. I had This one, and my girlfriend reaction was "She's beautiful"
Hmmm... or maybe This one?

I kind of do this every now and then to mess with her. I'll grab a babe pic and throw it on my wallpaper and then leave my monitor on while I leave the room. She always comes back and threatens me with something if I do it again. I always think it's funny, but she doesn't see the humor in it.

Get one of her.
 
sigh girls. She's definitely over-reacting.
Normal for normal guys to have sexy wallpapers.

You should tell her "If you are bothered why don't you pose a sexy pose so I can photograph it and have you as my wallpaper"?
 
I have about 50 nudes that rotate on my screen saver, which comes on frequently. She never complained. In fact I think she likes it 😀 She did say I should remove it when our roomate moves in, though.
 
my girlfriend has a naked woman on her desktop. of course her's is in better taste than your's i'm sure.
your's? is that right? yours? no such thing as "your is", so.. your's, right?
