"Revenge Porn". Ever hear of it? There are laws against it. Why do folks send other folks NAKED pictures of themselves?

You put it out there. Right. For certain eyes only to be sure. But you put it out there so it is available to anyone. Why are folks so dumbly naive that they think that's PRIVATE and they are in control of who sees it?

  • It's only illegal in a few states.  In most states you lose all ownership of the image when you give it away.

  • I think you raise a good point with this question.
    If a woman asks me for a picture of certain body parts then I don't send out naked pictures with my face in them.

    If I did it would have to be an AMAZING picture just in case it gets around. LoL!

    Tell ya the truth m'dear it seems to be arrested development pimply teenager adolescesent behavior to me! Seriously. I don't get it. They do selfies of private parts, transmit them via the internet and then make a big stink if it gets out and about. What in the heck do they expect? Dumbly stupid if ya ask me and they get what they deserve. Stuff like that is just begging to be flaunted and spread around. Dumbly stupid people are everywhere. SIGH. Thank you for your reply Truthseeker and Happy USA Black Friday! :) This post was edited by RosieG at November 24, 2017 6:31 AM MST

    I'm sorry this happened to you, Rosie. But I'm sure you've learned your lesson.

      Hey, wait a second!  In my own defense, those were really crazy times back then; I was young, I was unsophisticated, and besides, the internet was in its early stages, so I didn't realize how permanent everything is. How was I supposed to know how these things can get out of control so easily?




    (Psssst, you haven't stumbled across those images, have you, Rosie?)
