My View on Nude Pictures
For the most part, taking nude pictures is trashy (this includes males, too). It is NOT a way to show your love to your significant other. It only shows how foolish you are. Modeling for art is an entirely different thing. Please be aware of that. Taking nude pictures for a “loved” or “for fun” is beyond stupid. Notice that I have used the words stupid, foolish, and trashy, rather than calling a person a “whore” (which is a huge misconception). Just because you have taken a naked picture does not mean you’re a whore. I remember when Vanessa Hudgens’ nude pictures leaked, a whole bunch of people called her a skank, slut, whore, etc. Taking a naked picture DOES NOT make you a whore, please get that through your skulls. You can be a whore and take nude photos, however :P.
Taking nude pictures is very risky. You never know who may end up seeing them. That is pretty much the main reason why you should not do it.
“But I only took them for myself!”
Sorry to burst your bubble, but it doesn’t matter that you took them with the intention of only you seeing them. WTF is the point in taking a naked picture of yourself anyways? You look in the mirror every day, don’t you? You know how your body looks? Why engage in this risky behavior??
“They’re locked on my computer,” “They’re locked on my phone.”
Ohhhhh, you’ve locked them away, they’re entirely safe… NOT! Things get hacked, you know.
“I only sent them to my significant other.”
You ONLY sent them to your significant other? Please! When you send it to one person, just assume that it’s been sent to the entire world. Who knows who your boyfriend (girlfriend) has showed?? Things get around especially fast with today’s technology. What if you guys break up? What if it’s a messy break up, where he’ll (she’ll) blackmail you with the photos? You sent it to him/her… it’s theirs now :(.
“I’m not a celebrity, no one cares.”
… That’s the problem; YOU SHOULD care. Would you want your child(ren) seeing these photos? Wouldn’t you rather be a role model and set a good example for children? And besides, you’re not a celebrity currently, but who’s to say you won’t become one in the future? You never know.
I find taking nude pictures of yourself is just retarded and stupid i had a friend who sent them to her ex and it ended up all over the enternet! i find this really inapropriate and what she did was really wrong and she still hasnt learned from her actions cuz she keeps doing it!!
O-M-G! Yes! Everyone thinks that whoever takes a nude pic is a whore, but they just didn’t think about all the consequences. I think that you shouldn’t take any picture you don’t want everyone to see.
Yes, taking nude pictures is just completely pointless, and I still can’t see why people even do it.
I absolutly agree with you, taking nude photos even for you significant other is risky. You may not be with that person forever and then what? And even if your not a celebrity who wants their peers looking at them in the nude? Everyone is going to say “Hey you look great!” it’s going to be very hard for you especially since when people see anyones taken a nude photo they automatically think “your a whore (hoe, slut, etc.”)
Nice article :]
I agree! Taking nude photos for someone else is COMPLETELY stupid, who knows where they’ll end up? And how do you know that in the near future when you get your dream job that your boss won’t find that picture? Way to screw up YOUR life.
:blank: definitly. it really is disgusting. you are selling your body for everyone to see. i do think they r a whore tho.
i agree 100%!
I agree! In a magazine, there was an atricle about a girl who took nude pictures. She lost her phone (with the nudepics), someone found it and saw the pictures. He uploaded the pictures and then could everyone see her, naked, on the internet.
I agree with everything you said. I guess the only thing I could add is that if someone wants to make a fool of themselves, that is a choice they will have to make on their own… if they regret it later, which they most likely will, it’s no ones fault but themselves.
Loling at #3!
Anyways, It makes my skin crawl when you go on someone’s myspace/bebo whatever and they have photos everywhere of them kissing with their gf/bf. Ok, you love someone [good for you] but we don’t want to see you stick your toungue down their neck! Urrghh!
some nude pictures are art but ones like vanessa’s are portrayed as slutty. ive seen them and she comes across as a slut/skank/whore, so its all about how you project the whoreyness in the picture.
i really agree wih you when some one take those pictures his only giving to the ppl idea that he is a really weak person
I agree with you 100%. When someone sees the picture they can go crazy and hack in your account find your location, phone number, etc. and find you. You can possibly be murdered, etc.
(Unless you’re a minor,) everyone should take at least one nude pic of themself so they can remember what they looked like when they get old.
like omg.. naked pictures are like exposing your self to everyone in the whole world. like some theater and you just have a video/picture slideshow up and everybody is just looking at you naked. its nasty, un cute, and innapropriate!
I made a joke at your expense using your comment as the set up. ,
I have only one question for you: why do you think your personal opinion should be relevant for other people’s life choices? It’s their body – their choice, why would other’s nude photos bother you? One does not have any obligation to justify their personal choice, just as you have the right to think whatever you please. As an American lady I suppose you’re aware of terms like “free will” and “democracy”.
its not exactly fair what youre saying, i mean i know where youre coming from. but if youre in a committed relationship, youre having sex with the person and what not, and youre sending pictures to tease them for when they come home? then i think its acceptable. IF youre in a committed relationship
what i don’t seem to get is how all of there pics were “leaked” or how all the time someone stole there laptop. lol
I take a picture or two for my boyfriend every now and then. So what? It’s my body. I’m proud of it, not ashamed of it, so even if everyone saw the pics, I still wouldn’t be embarassed. That doesn’t mean I’m a whore or a exhibitionist, I’m just saying that it wouldn’t really bother me THAT MUCH if people saw these. Besides, I do trust my boyfriend that he will keep those to himself. Why did I send him the pics in the first place? Well, we rarely see each other (we don’t leave in the same city), so I gave them to him for the times when we cannot see each other. I don’t really WANT others to see this as they are my private pics, but if they did, I wouldn’t be really bothered. Mother Nature gave us each a body when we were born, and those bodies are a work of art, so flaunt them. That’s my opinion.
I am very late, but Flapper Girl, if people acted out on their “free will,” this world would be filled with nothing but chaos and uncivilized people. People are going to do what they want to do, regardless, I understand that very well. I also understand that people are free to do what they please w/ their bodies, but I care because I just tend to care for humanity. It’s not the same thing, but think of all the careless things people do with their body, having unprotected sex w/ multiple people, catching STDs, spreading STDs, etc. This doesn’t directly affect me, but I would love to see the rates of them going down simply because I love humanity. & I would love to see people have more self-respect for themselves than to take nude photos…
Kaytee, I definitely see what you’re saying, but I just wish people could see the whole bigger picture. There are lots of ways you can tease people, btw. It doesn’t have to be through a picture that can eventually get in the wrong hands.
Dollie, yes, yes, yes, it IS your body and you’re free to do what you please with it. I am not saying you should be ashamed of it. Heck, I prance around my room naked like it’s no one’s business sometimes haha. & okay, you guys don’t see each other often… what good is a nude picture of you doing for him? Is it material to masturbate to? I’m sure he’s probably seen your naked body before, he can’t just think of you? It’s all really pointless when you think about it, but I suppose it’s just different strokes for different folks :).
Yeah, it is kinda masturbate material for him… And I don’t mind. And yes, he’s seen it, but memories can fade (at least DETAILS in memories, anyways) and pictures can’t. I know this is not for everyone… I just had to give my point of view, since everybody here seems to be so con nude pics… And I had to show you my point of view, too. (:
It’s just such a bad idea to take nude pictures. I don’t see how it could work out properly and I totally agree with the significant other possibly sending it around. Such a bad idea!
