Text Only, Please

I saw an article yesterday which said that a lot of girls, particularly early teens, are finding out that when they decide to be impish and email or IM their boyfriends with sexually explicit photographs of themselves, the boyfriends don't always purge those images when they break up. Quite the contrary, in fact. Those pictures tend to hang around. Get propagated, even.

Imagine that.

I cannot believe how stupid some of the girls are today. They have no clue what they are doing to themselves. They don't even understand the concept of self-respect, and the damage it can do when you don't have it and allow other (usually boys) to not demonstrate it for them either.

Ugh, I have to shut up or I'll go off about that for hours.

I have heard of many a website created by ex-boyfriends that contain explicit pictures of girlfriends.
I don't necessarily think girls are stupider today its just their stupidness is more easily exposed.

Websites? Um...where might those be? (g)

I don't think girls are stupider, but I do think they're more likely to buy into the image of this being an okay thing to do. One of the minor reasons that my daughters phone doesn't have a camera.

I was going to do it, but the only web site that would post explicit pictures of me was Waste Management!
