Although most are polite, someone would make the inevitable remark that she looks a few pounds overweight, breasts (if not augmented) sag a bit or skin is in need of "ironing". Such posts invite that. I generally do not find the photos of most spouses and significant others proudly posted here particularly attractive (not my type)...and try to avoid those threads and commenting on the SO as if they are some porn star pin up or a piece of meat. I find that my spouse is perfect for me and I assume the original poster feels the same about his...but I don't see my wife's attractiveness (or otherwise) as an accomplishment of mine to be shared in a "who has the biggest pecker" contest. I posted a picture of my daughter here once long ago when she was in college (in her cheerleader attire) because I was proud of her athleticism. Some remarks were pretty disgusting...so I learned my lesson.
That said, anyone who enjoys showing photos of their SO (with her/his permission) should do so as it obviously brings joy to then as well as many who enjoy viewing them. The rest who do not care for them should just avoid looking. Next time though, please label it better ("NSFW" or "Boobs" or "My wife sunbathing") if you really don't want people to be annoyed/critical to view the thread and comment. If you want the extra attention...carry on, by all means.
