Say it again for the people in the motherfucking back

Not for nothing, but as a parent you’re supposed to be caring for, nurturing and protecting your children… not using them as props on social media to feed your own ego. Stop this.

I get sharing photos of your kids on social media, but bath photos, hell no. It’s scary easy how easily creeps can get a hold of your location, routine, and other personal information.

5. Am I an idiot?

Wonder if in the next 10+ years or so we’re going to start seeing cases about the rights of your image as a child. How many kids growing up now are going to have to deal with their entire childhood being publicly visible online due to parents’ oversharing? What if they don’t want all of that stuff out there once they…

I side-eye the absolute fuck out of people who post nude pictures of their children online. Sure, you the parent think it’s cute; it’s still a fucking nude photo, though, dumbass. If teens can get prosecuted for distributing child porn of themselves, your ass should know better than to post your unconsenting kid’s…

i think about how mildly horrified I am that my mother took a couple of adorable film photos of me as a baby in the buff 30+ years ago and think “i would seriously never want those posted to social media, and if they were, i would want to be the person to post them, as an adult.” i think our children deserve the same…

Or maybe, and radical thought here I know, don’t share family pictures of your kids or really anyone for that matter on a public platform...

“Yes, an ass-grab and a shoulder-tap are definitely equivalent actions!”

Yes, they ARE for people who don’t want you f*cking hand on their f*cking shoulder.

Who made you the arbiter of what kind of touching is appropriate for whom?

Gonna need years of therapy to recover from so scarring an experience.

Just basic human touch is a very intimate thing for me. If I hug you, or let you hug me, I’m basically saying that you’re family. Some fucking rando at a restaurant touching me because they are shilling for more money is cheap and disgusting and guarrantees to kill my mood.

Skin-to-skin, and from a stranger. Big “no no” for very many people. Especially people who’ve been victims of assault if they don’t see it coming. Not a small issue at all.

To some, they are. Some people like having their ass grabbed. I don’t know why, but they do.

You’re blowing it way out of proportion, it’s not a person freaking out that they’ll need years of therapy over a split-second shoulder touch at a restaurant, it’s them simply feeling uncomfortable (which isn’t weird, come on) and wanting Salty to write an article saying “I know you were told you might get better tips…

An honest misjudgment by a friendly server is very different from staff being encouraged to touch by management (which is a completely inappropriate job requirement for the servers, jmo). Tolerating unwanted touch is not the adult response in that situation.

There’s no NEED for it. Keep your hands off me. I don’t know you like that.

Human contact is human contact. Unwanted contact is unwanted contact. So your comment was just total bullshit is what you are saying? Maybe you are the one that needs years of therapy.

You’re not really in any position to be criticizing others for false equivalencies here.

Not saying I need therapy for every random touch I have to endure from strangers (and there are a lot), but as someone on the autism spectrum I am extremely touch averse. If I’m having a bad time already it can really genuinely fuck with me. There are plenty of reasons people might not wish to be touched and I don’t…

So it is ok for me to grab the female servers ass if its only for a short period of time?
