And here I was, wondering if it's one of my friends, who is also like that!

I think we should all take whatever pics we want and nobody else has a right to steal them. I also know some people are clever and terrible. I would not trust my private pics to Apple, Google, or any other cloud storage.

I'd say you have a right to them, and that anyone who stole them should be prosecuted appropriately. I think it's also okay to acknowledge that there's a certain amount of risk that comes with having those pictures, especially if you share them, and that risk varies depending on how you store those pictures.

I think you can take as many naked pics of yourself as you want. But I would advise that they be taken on a Polaroid type camera...and always remain in the subject's possession. Analog forever!

Its not right to blame the victim. But its perfectly reasonable to point out that a victim can be dumb and to warn other people against doing shit that could get them into trouble. This is a critical difference that Jezebel writers either are unwilling or to dumb to understand.

I'd add on that digital images last forever, are easily copied and transferred, and most are stored by means that aren't all that secure and that can be remotely accessed.

Last night, as I was falling asleep, I made a mental list of all the opinions I have that the Jez collective hive mind would find "problematic." I'm gonna add this one to the list.

When I take nakies I tend to avoid putting my face in them so I have plausible deniability. Who knows if this girl is going to be a creeper?

I am officially an old, because I think "Don't take naked pictures of yourself" happens to be pretty good advice for everyone, male or female. I can't imagine all those sports players who had their dicks posted on Deadspin really liked that experience either.

In agreement completely. Having gotten accustomed to the "crap email from a dude" type of stories, I've become used to associating a certain type of neurotic weird whiney person, who puts down their prospective partners, with a sub-category of the male misogynist. But as you say, it's not necessarily right.

SAME. My trigger was Lost World, though. Crushing on a dude in his forties when you're 12 years old is super confusing.

Now I have to know what that comment said!

You've gotta read better grown up books! There are so many that have stayed with me for years and years. I won't be so presumptuous to just drop a bunch of recommendations on you. But if you want recommendations, I am totally your girl.

Yes. It's about pushing a social agenda that you don't beat people up. Women or men. And if you don't like that you can go to hell.

Well that's just a whole bunch of sad right there. Sad because she thinks it's a ratings ploy, sad that she defends her husband, sad that it reminds me that even after everything that went down she made that man her husband, sad that it took the second video for this punishment to come down when the first was horrific…

Jeepers! Have you scrolled back to 1990?

Hmmm. I'm going to have to say maybe? Education is a factor. Like the places that are most accepting of gay lifestyles and such always contain more people that went to college.

Fattest states are Red States that are deeply into climate denial. Least fat seems to be mainly Blue States who accept climate change. Umm coincidence?

Woohoo! Outlander!
