Google teen suicide nudes and then come back and tell me it's just a moral panic
You assume it's a moral panic because some people don't behave in ways you deem rational and don' share your views on sex.
Guess what, we're not Vulcans. We're humans with feelings and violations like this can have serious consequences for the people it's done to
- friend_and_foe 3y agoSo we pander to feelings? It's a dichotomy? Either we are vulcans or we pander to feelings. That sounds unreasonable. First, teens take nudes of themselves to send to each other because they're horny. When those nudes get leaked, it's betrayal by someone they trust, it's actually a picture of them that they took, and it is harassment. Now, killing yourself in response to it, that in my mind is an indicator of an unhealthy environment at school. But that's still a real violation of their trust, it's real harassment, it is understandable that they'd feel extreme stress as a result. We are talking about drawings, not some mirror selfie some girl sent to her boyfriend that he showed his friends. The two scenarios are not the same thing. People behaving in ways that aren't rational is a core part of a moral panic. I don't care if people share my views on sex. Moral panics to make homosexuality illegal had different views of sexuality also. Just because someone has a different view than me doesn't give them the right to pass laws that affect everybody. We ideally determine what should be illegal based on what's reasonable, not based on how people feel. It is unreasonable to throw people in jail for technologically modern doodles.
