Quick Question

[shele]

and probably a dumb one too..

I have been thinking about blogging my sexual experience and would like to include how I discovered sex and sexuality as a child (not molestation) ..does any one know of any legal ramifications of that? Would it be considered child porn? is there a website I can go to to find out more info? Any help would be appreciated..thank you.

Although Lit doesn't allow anything depicting people under 18, I'd think you could blog whatever you want. I'd friend lock the posts or make them private if I were you, considering the recent Live Journal controversy over child porn. As far as I know, the only ramification would be getting your blog flagged for adult content or deleted.

Yeah, go ahead put all your secrets in a blog and throw in a pussy pic or two while you're at it. Just remember, once that shit is posted you can't back up. It's been seen, copied, read and diseminated.

for the US, a distinction of porn and obscenity holds. MOSTLY, written material falls under obscenity law, and is only prosecuted now, in the most extreme cases.

IOW, your writing 'johnny did this to me at age 6', in graphic detail is NOT porn, nor 'child porn.'

there is internet legislation that attempts to ban 'material harmful to minors,' but that hasn't passed muster; it, of course WOULD apply to written material, which is why Lit doesn't allow it. it's up to your server/web page host.

i think there are lots of blogs with sexual experiences, past and present. the idea of having some simple 'screen,' e.g. 'register' is not a bad one.

one idea you might consider is that an actual piece of text be in a pdf form or one NOT easily grabbed and stolen. i'm not a techie, but some sites make it NOT easy to just grab some text, change the name and post it.

perhaps the most important thing, i would say, unless you plan to be Suzy Bright, a public figure, is to keep a separate BLOG IDENTITY, e.g Miss White Daisy. let any revelations about the past, e.g. the elementary school, NOT lead to your real identity and real location (e.g. neighborhood, not just NYC). have the blog identity linked, where necessary to an email address that's also in this identity's name, i.e 'whitedaisy' at hotmail; NOT to suzeyjones or even suzyj1985 at hotmail, where suzy jones is your real name, and 1985 is your year of birth. FURTHER, in setting up 'white daisy' at hotmail, do not supply the true suzy jones info, as account data. it's not needed. simply have the 'white daisy' hotmail registered to 'jane dough' in NYC.

keep us posted! good luck!

Best of all write in out on a computer not connected to the internet and don't post it anywhere.

Once on line, someone will copy it.

OhMissScarlett and Pure...

Thank you for your responses, I have looked around a bit and couldn't find information regarding it. I am not sure if I am actually going to publish anything on line it might be for just me, though I am not neccesarily opposed to putting it online either. However even if its not put online and I just keep it as a word document as a personal journal, I still want it to be legal.

When I blog I always keep a seperate blog identity. I don't need a stalker tracking me down. ~laughin~ Thank you again for your great infomation.


oggbashan..

Thank you for your post, If I do decide to put it online, I don't care if anyone copies it, part of it is putting it out there for all to see..they can do with it as they will.

Thank you for your post as well, sarcastic as it was..part of the point is that it is seen, don't care if its copied or diseminated. Why would I need to take it back..and who would I be taking it back from? The blog wouldn't have any personal infomation in it at all, including using an ip bocker. And how is it any different from posting on a website like this one? I have blogged a lot, about weight, relationships and life in general. It helps me get it out, work through problems and when I go back and reread I usually see some things with a different view, think what the hell was I thinking when I typed this. With this blog it would be a turn on, letting my secrets out and again, it may be for my own personal viewing, just just questioning the legality of it. And for the record, my pussy pics have been online for 8 years, I am sure they have been copied many times and even passed around and that is ok with me, again there is nothing to trace it back to me and I have yet to have a problem with it.
