Sending nudes to virtual strangers? Do you really think thats a good idea? Dont people get its not just a moral issue, but a safety concern?
I'm not trying to offend anyone who engages in this. I'm trying to understand why?
Why you think it's ok/safe to send nude pics to a virtual stranger you don't even know? How can you believe the words of/put trust in someone you don't even know?
( What happened to teaching about stranger danger)
And just texting someone, I don't care how long, without ever"meeting IRL", is still a stranger in my book.
But now to the morality issue. Since when did it become okay/acceptable to just show just anyone your naked body. Isn't that an intimacy that should only be shared with just your partner/SO?
Is that the only way you feel you can get attention? Is that really the way you want to be seen?
Me, personally I'm not going to be with someone who sends or receives nudes. How can I respect you if you don't respect yourself? I personally feel that the only person that should be seeing you naked is the person you are intimately involved with. Porn and movies are one thing, but looking at/sending naked pics with real people is so different and not a practice I can accept for myself or anyone I'd be in a relationship with.

There was a time in society where we taught "Don't talk to strangers" Now it's ok to sext/send nudes to strangers? Kids are very easily influenced. Is this the message we want to send the next generation?

  • A) they’re reckless if they don’t consider the danger. I think there are two very different scenarios here - the case where they know the person in real life (which I suspect is actually higher risk) and trust too easily, or the case there they’re sending pics to people who dont live anywhere near them and don’t know them in person. In that latter case, I suspect they are assuming if the pics leak it won’t get attached to them. If they don’t include their face, that may be a reasonably safe assumption.
    B) again I think there’s probably a split here between people who just farm nudes as though this is a step towards... something irl (which I don’t think it is) and is part of a general “hookup” shift in dating, versus again, people who are using it for a sexual connection with someone they can’t meet, something they may do in a variety of ways.

  • I rather sext than sleep around. How does it have anything to do with self respect? If I want to send or receive that's up to me. I'm not hurting anyone or myself for that matter and it doesn't change anything for me or the other person.

    Also people in porn are real people you know.

    • But there's no chance of hooking up with them. And you not sending, you're watching. Everyone's entitled to do them. But what happened to having it for the people you're actually having sex with?

    • Well I don't have any chance of hooking up with any of the girls I've sexted and that's not the interest to begin with. As a guy we don't really have much to show anyway. Girls see 90% of my body on the beach. To add the penis for me is not a big deal especially if I find her attractive or nice in general. When I have a girlfriend then of course I wouldn't continue but now when I don't have I don't see the problem. Why can't people enjoy each other without it being wrong? I think life is too short to hold back. If a girl finds me attractive and me her I don't think it's bad if we make things more exciting for each other. Of course you can't trust where the photos can end up but for me that's a risk I'm willing to take. Personally I wouldn't ever spread anything I receive elsewhere or show my friends for that matter.

    • But if someone doesn't know you? How can they take your word as truth? How many people say that and do it anyway,?

  • Personally as long as you hide your face, you’re doing GREAT 😉😉 and if you think men won’t show others you’re mostly likely wrong so make sure you look sexy hahah

    • Sorry I don't send nudes. Especially to people don't know. Face or no. Sending/receiving pics not my thing

    • I have never shown anyone any pics I have ever gotten from any girls regardless of what they are of.

    • @Cannuck22 But why send nudes or receive nudes with virtual strangers

  • I don’t think it’s a good idea at all. God only knows where those photos go after you send them.

    • That's so true. But also why should you let someone you don't even know see something that should be special. I respect myself and my body too much to show "just anyone" Noone will respect you if you don't first respect yourself 🤷

    • I agree. I’m against sending them on both the moral and safety side of things. It’s just a bad idea all around 😂

    • As it should be. Save it for your man. Some men think just cuz they want to see it, they should. They want all the "benefits"if a relationship without being in a relationship. And too many females are putting up with it. Oh I can be a very sexual person, but not for a damn stranger. Why would he deserve that from me?

  • I would send it if whoever asked for it is someone I trust.
    I personally hate my body so it isn't a big issue for me since, why should I care about something I hate?

  • We'll I have sent nudes to strangers, but i always send it faceless,

    • That's good at least guess I'm just old fashioned and not sharing my nudity with just anyone. Rather share in person with real person and then Have at it. Nude texts just don't do it for me lol

    • Do you have any reason to do it? Why?

    • @Mamamialetmego Have any reason to do what?

  • I did it often already I had no bad experiences

    • How often? Do you have any criteria for these strangers?

  • It doesn't take a genius to figure out that's it's not the smartest move in the world to make.

    • Agreed. And just don't get why? Now, if it was a husband I and we've been married a long time and had to be away, well then sext on. lol but stranger? Not sexting, videoing, or nude pics sent or received. Not my thing Id rather the"real deal" with someone irl

    • Yeah I Agree, I mean I can see why in a relationship but it's just stupid to do that with strangers.

    • Thank you lol the practices I see, what people think I' is acceptable these days isn't why I became single (death did that 😢) but it's one the reasons I stay single

  • People do stupid shit is why.

    • Right? Stupid is as stupid does 😂😂😂

  • just make sure your face isn't in the pic..

    • Still no for me. I'm sharing mine only with the man I'm sleeping with. Noone else has a right, deserves that intimacy, at least for me 🤷

    • well sure if that works for you then keep with it. Some like the thrill of showing off to strangers. Its just as long as there is no face pic then your fine..

    • Ok but can I ask? Do you have kids? And would you want your kids sending nudes to strangers? Or your grown daughter? I personally think asking someone for nudes is very disrespectful. But that's just me.

  • I’ve sent nudes to my girlfriend only and she hasn’t shown anyone. I’ve received nudes from strangers too and I’ve never shown their pictures to others.

    • The girlfriend thing I get. The stranger thing I don't? For myself, I'd do that for my SO but not sending nudes to a random stranger or sexting a random stranger. To me I'll only do those things with a person I'm actually involved with. I'd rather pics of something I'm a actually be with. And sext about things we'll actually be able to put into practice.

  • I don't get why dudes share shit like that.

    • Women do it too to be fair not just men

  • I've only ever sent pics or vids that did not show my face for that exact reason.

    • But why send any? What happened to that's an intimacy only shared with your sexual partner?

    • I'm single and was single when I sent them and yeah I got a kick out doing it. :)

  • Good point.

    • Thank you. I'm not trying to tell people what is right or wrong. But women say they don't want to be objectified, but then send nude pics? To strangers? Isn't that objectifying yourself? And what message are we sending our younger generation?

    • You are right. But then consider what a person goes through emotionally and mentally. They want so bad to be liked and to be wanted they will do anything. Nude pics are only part of that need. It can be anything really. Such as trying to lose weight, getting breast implants, shaving, being a certain religion or a political follower, etc, etc. It all ends up being the same reason. It is good that there are people like you there you try to educate or inform others especially our children on how to respect yourself is key. But when there are people who try to break and tear down that person and they end up following a self destructive behaviour i found that by understanding them and not embarrassing them and by being a friend not an enemy they learn to build themselves back up and how to respect themselves. You are a great person and im glad i know you. 😄

    • Thanks And I'm not trying to tear anyone down. Trying to show you shouldn't have to expose the most intimant part of yourself too feel beautiful. Be appreciated for your beautiful mind. For your personality. Weight should be about health not looks. Putting those kind of pics in anyone's hands can be a big gamble anyway but especially a stranger And that we need to love/respect ourselves before others will/can. And you should never let the opinion of strangers mean more to you than your own. That's putting power into the wrong hands. Care about what they think about you on the job- if they think you're a good employee-in a family or relationship But don't put so much importance in what a stranger says/thinks. Anyway but especially if they just want nudes/sexting. That should never be a way to validate yourself. In my humble opinion anyways 🤷

  • So to be clear are you against nudes, or just nudes with someone you aren't dating?

    • Nudes/ sexting with people you don't know. If someone dating or married is different.

  • fuck nudes

    • I'm all bout seeing naked. But someone in person so I can act on what I see/have in front of me. Texting about sex? Or having sex? I choose having lol

    • I agree, why settle for a nude pic when you can have the real thing.

    • Exactly. Great minds..☺️

  • Very bad idea

  • Do what you want. But know nothing is ever deleted. And could end up anywhere.

  • Who gives a shit? If i have a career that could be ruined or a reputation that could be destroyed with a picture of my dick then my job sucks and me people are assholes

  • I think it's a dangerous trend and people don't realise that as soon as they press send, they have no control over where that pic goes.
    Personally I've never sent nudes, wouldn't want to scare people 😂 I have been sent the odd nude, not asked for, I might add! I certainly wouldn't show those nudes to anyone else, I have respect for the person as a fellow human. But not everyone is like me.
    As for sending nudes to your SO, there is the same danger that if you ever broke up your nudes could be posted online for the world to see. There is no guarantee either way that once that send button is pressed you won't be exposed for all the world to see.
    I do understand the excitement about sending and certainly receiving nude pics of someone you are talking with, but ultimately it's a very dangerous game. But then that is part of the attraction I suppose!

  • I would n will

  • Yea kinda but ill do it... i don't really have to worry about safety issuse

    • Worry more about weather you have pink or brown nippels

  • I am Not proud of it but at least moustly faceless

    • What is the thrill? Why do you send?

    • Guess some kind of exhibicionism and no one to show in real..

    • Okay. Just be careful. Once pics are out there, they're out there.
