šŸ”® What are you doing right now? šŸ”®

I popped onto Lit as I was leaving work and now I’m wondering if I’m the person being referenced as defending people that download pictures from Lit. šŸ˜‚
There is no expectation of privacy here. If someone chooses to post publically they have chosen to share with everyone here. I think it is then hypocritical to be upset when you chose to share publically?
Are we really saying it is ok to enjoy the photo only when it is up online? And what are we concerned folks are doing with the photos? Masturbstubg? Well be honest, folks that are doing that to photos online are doing it while they are posted as well.
You’re not the only one but you are one of them.

Because I think most people understand that yes, we are saying it’s only okay while it’s up.

I have to be honest monkey. I never really took you for one to completely missInterpret what someone else had said. I was also further surprised when you continued to misrepresent what I had written and post about it. I never defended anyone and I did not blame people. I expressed surprise that people were so surprised by the behavior. I also don’t think we live in a society with norms and expectations that everyone agrees on while on Lit. I feel that when we have friends and connections it can give us the impression that we have a group of like-minded people around us. Unfortunately, this is an online forum and there is no membership required and no Expectation of any set norms. Anyone can view the threads and the images and we have no control over what someone may do with them. We can hope that folks may behave a certain way, but I don’t think we can expect it.

Being older the. For the internet and home computers, I have noticed there is one rule. Anything posted in is FOREVER.
It is why I never posted explicit pics and videos or sent them out. Having the expectation that things posted here or anywhere will not be saved or shared is naive. There are whole websites of videos and images sent to husbands and boyfriends with love. Now publicly share and wanked to by strangers because of the receiver's anger or ego.
I think it best to think before one post. Actions have consequences. We all decide our level of public exposure. Just but sure one thinks about where yours is and act accordingly.
Not making excuses for breaches of trust but let's face it. The images didn't take themselves.

I’m not misrepresenting or misunderstanding anything. The amount of daylight between its hypocritical or pointless to expect better for reasons and this thing is okay is virtually nonexistent. The rest of your argument is noise. We’re not getting mad at every rando, though those do make me mad. We were getting mad at a specific person who claims to be part of our community.

Victim blaming bullshit.
 
Victim blaming bullshit.
Not at all. Accepting responsibility for naive expectations is not victim blaming.
This is not a case of a girl wearing a short skirt and ā€œasking for itā€.
The images were not stolen. They were sent freely. Reminding people to be careful who they trust and that the internet is forever doesn't fit victim blaming. If you don't want there to be a chance of those things getting out, then don't send them. As adults the only person we can control is ourselves.

And as I said there was no denying that trust in these cases was broken. Still there is no rule against it. Socially or site-wide.

That does not change the culpability of the image sender. Or the breach of the other party.

I have a question, why are you so angry about my post? A reminder to be careful. A reminder that senders control their images being sent. What exactly do you have an issue with?
 
For me, it was the attitude of entitlement that came with it. Like they’re publicly posted, I’m able to save them, therefore it’s okay for me to save them and post about how much I’ve been doing it, nevermind the fact that these are people I’ve been interacting with regularly for quite some time and gave some impression of caring about on some level. It’s not surprising at alllll, sadly, but it’s pretty icky.
 
I think it’s more of the nonchalant excuse of ā€œI did no wrongā€. Personally, if you’re saving my pics to your personal file because I didn’t add ā€œPlease don’t saveā€ to every post, that’s a skeez thing to do. The fact that one feels no wrongdoing was done when it was brought up and then gets to feel justified? Admit you’re being a jackass in a COMMUNITY we thought was fun to share in. I get it, it took me a while to share pics but, naively didn’t think that I’d be added to some creepy folder. Silly me has learned that lesson. It wasn’t some rando zero poster, it was someone who comments frequently and thinks it’s ok and was pretty much backed up in his skewed thinking.
