That first Elsa one, I'm really not seeing much difference between that and a regular Elsa costume.

I wanted to argue, but realized you may have a point about the dehumanization aspect. My experience (and why I barely notice it) is from the army, where male/female are the general accepted terms, and "woman," "man," etc. just aren't used. Of course, the entire point of the military is dehumanizing everyone, so...yeah.
What an insightful response, I understand your position so much clearer now. Perhaps, though ,you could elaborate?
Indeed, the old testament god even says that both good and evil flow from him. Remember that in Job the devil was an angel tasked with testing mankind.
People who don't know Asheville, but just know that it's located in the mountains of North Carolina, might not know just how incredibly liberal this town is. Toplessness is legal, there's alternative medicine on every corner (and real medicine, we're a medical hub for the region), there's been an ongoing war protest…
Finally got around to watching this one. I thought it was excellent, far better than I expected. I thought it would be as big of a letdown as the "Curse of the Black Spot" was, but instead it was both funny and touching.
I have nothing but anecdata. All I know is I've been there when female friends received unsolicited dick pics. I've received them myself when posing as female in MMOs for RP purposes. Go on any dating site (Tindr, OKCupid, etc) and see how many women's profiles specify not to send them nude pictures unless requested.…
Most hacking is in fact social engineering. Anyone will tell you the biggest vulnerability in any system is the people who use it. I'm one of those people who frequently loses their ID, so when I was in the army I learned a ton of social engineering tricks to get into secure areas without having to present it. You…
So, I assume you have none of your financial information online? Because if simply using the internet to store and transmit pictures is the same as leaving them out in the open, then using the internet for banking is just as insecure. And by your logic, should your bank accounts get hacked, it's your own fault for…
Nice dodge. I am not, in any way, saying that sending unsolicited photos by women is okay. That is entirely tangential to the issue of whether or not stealing photos of women is okay, which it is not. Nor is stealing photos of men. However, while there are cases of both, the vast majority of stolen pictures are of…
Heh. Keeeep thinking that.
Yes, actually it is your fault. It is always women because there is a market for women's bodies, while not for men's. Men's bodies are objects of revulsion and intimidation, women's are objects of desire and shame. You are a part of that market, whether you have seen the images or not, because you are here actively…
Our society does not treat it the same, however. Men send unsolicited nude pictures to women as a form of harassment, then steal women's nude photos and share them as a further form of harassment. This is the current state of society. There is no disputing this.
You state that it is silly, narcissistic and stupid for women to share such photos, even within the trusting context of an intimate relationship, because of the risk. You ignore that I asked, what if there was no risk? Would you still call women who did so narcissistic? Do you feel the shame and ridicule that the…
Ah, no, that's not answering my question. You say that's just reality. However, that's answering the question why do people feel uncomfortable doing that. I asked why should.
Why should they feel uncomfortable?
No, but people should feel comfortable to use modern technology to share intimate pictures with their loved ones, without worry that they're going to be broadcast by the whole damn planet.
Fair enough, only heard the oversimplified "4chan haxxed teh CLOUD" version. And I guess it is a bad idea to hold service providers responsible for crimes committed against them. Then, I'm at a loss as what to do, because hackers will always exist and as long as humans are involved, any security system is vulnerable.…
Anyone else think that Cloud services should be held responsible for damages if victims' data is stolen? That's the only solution I see. People should be able to do what they want with their photos and bodies without worrying about this shit, but on the other hand, until our society stops treating the female body as…
Why does the cover gif have the lyrics to Bohemian Rhapsody written in High Gallifreyan?
