Sexting?? - Comments

I can read, thank you very much. It doesn't matter how many 'cases' there are of guys doing it compared to how many there are of girls doing it. They are still doing it. Even if there are 10 girls for every 1 guy taking dirty pictures, why should they be treated any differently just because there are more girls doing it?

Can you see my nipples?? Or my vag? I dont think so, you can see clevage, that is far from a naked picture.

And comments like that are the root of the problem. One of my favorite teachers once said, "A slut is a girl who's had sex with one more guy than you." I think the same applies here. A slut is a girl who shows a bit more skin than you.

A little more respect for our fellow females please.

No, if you can read i said "its not right that guys do it either." But there are wayy less cases of guys sending out pictures than girls.

&& people are mean, your gonna get called those things. Thats like, a given. Getting labled is a part of life, and yes if you are "sexting" in high school, you are gonna get called a slut.

saveroftheworld, mind my business? How do I mind my business when girls are sending full blown shots of their down stairs or boobs and of course its gonna get out, and Im having to look at it every five seconds when someone sends it to me.

When you send that picture out, it are opening all those doors to be called all those names, and your making your body everyones business. && if your telling me you do not lable people then you are wrong. Everyone does it.

&& second of all, Im not talking about people. Im talking about children. I am a child. 15 and 16 or younger are not adults, they can not do whatever they want. Child pronography is illegal just in case you did not know and you can get charged with it if you send out a naked picture under 18.

I agree with saveroftheworld and Audrey T. Taking dirty pictures doesn't make you a bad person and it doesn't make you a slut. I have less respect for the people who go around labeling other people as sluts or whores just because the choices they make than I do for the girls who choose to have sex or in this case, take 'dirty' pictures.

"Also, its bad if boys do it but lets face it, boys would not bee looked at as differently as a girl would. Not fair at all but thats pretty much how its always been, and from the looks of it, its not gonna change now. "

^ No it isn't fair, and it probably won't change any time soon, but I think that's because people focus so much on the girls doing and it just let the guys get away with it, because 'they're guys'. Even you did it, you're being so critical of the girls taking dirty pictures of themselves but you are basically dismissing the fact that the guys do the same thing by saying that they wouldn't be looked at any differently. Why should girls be looked at any differently, then? Why not let their actions be equal?

V Looking at someone can lead to sex and becoming pregnant.
Looking at someone can also lead to choosing low fat ice cream.

Your argument is a washout. Sorry.

Dancing Caveman, I was saying that you cant just let your 15 or 16 year old daughter just do whatever she wants, like you said.

No, but it leads to alot of things yes. Maybe being pregnate. On Tyra one of the girls said "I leads me to fallow through on having sex when Im sexting." So yes it could lead to a girl getting prenate. && if the girl is alienated by every other group other than people who do drugs then, yes it could lead to her becoming a crack whore and in jail.

We aren't going to see eye to eye soo...

Oh damn, you must be a hardcore slut. I just went to your profile and saw the picture you have where you can very easily see down your shirt. Naughty, naughty.

v Agreed with what she's saying too. Doing those things doesn't make a person a slut or a whore and it definitely doesn't give anyone the right to call them those names.

Sexting is like everything else involving sex: it's a personal choice and no one has any right to judge anyone else for it. Because, really, it's no one else's business.

Also, I'd like to say that a lot of this and a lot of the objection to it, ESPECIALLY ON MIBBA, is very hypocritical. It's wrong to "sext" but it's perfectly okay to read hardcore literary porn, it's perfectly fine to write hardcore porn. How is that so?

People can do what they want. Don't be so narrow minded. Just because you either haven't tried it or haven't had a positive experience from it doesn't make it wrong for other people to do.

And it certainly doesn't mean you're a slut if you send your boyfriend pictures of yourself. I honestly think you should just mind your own business and also refrain from calling people sluts. That's a quick way to get yourself into trouble.

Oh yes, it's a slippery slope. One minute, a girl is sending pictures of her boobs to some kid; the next minute she's a pregnant crackwhore in jail. XD

And why do I need to learn parenting? I'm not a parent. And besides, I figured this was about young adults.

Personally, if I had a daughter, I'd talk to her about responsibility and respect for her body. If she felt the need to send her little boyfriend a picture of her vagina, then that's her business.

It's not like that boy hasn't ever seen a vagina before.

v It's alright.

&& Im not saying a girl doesnt have the right to her own body, but Im just saying from what I've seen && heard, it does damage.

Audret T., Yes. Im talking about underage, high school girls in this journal. Not women.

The only thing I have against sexting is the "omg, what if it gets out?" part. Because that's a very real consequence, these things getting out, getting sent around, ruining reputations. Other than that, to each his own. I don't think it's "morally" any better or worse than cybering or porn or actually having sex or masturbating or, dare I say, those super-sexed up NC-17 stories on Mibba.

I do have a problem, as I do with the other things I listed, when people under the age of 18 are participants.

Dancing Caveman, no a girl should no do whatever the hell she wants, thats how bad things happen. Thats how girls get pregnate, or get STDS, or get into "sexting" or smoke or drugs. Everything. A child needs rules and limits, other wise bad things happen. I know a girl who sent pictures around and her parents didn't care one bit! Be a parent, and learn some parenting. Children need rules, and if you don't think so, you will when you become a parent. You can't let them just go hog wild.

&& playboy isn't child pornography, its for women. Not girls in highschool. Its a job really.

Realize, yes I could, like I said this could be the start of me doing something. But Im also have done a little something talking about it on here. But thanks for the idea, I might actually do that for a school paper this year.

I won't do it, because of blackmail. :file:

And for everyone else, its okay to voice and opinion, and Emily Alisa, was just voicing hers. If she thinks its wrong, that's fine to each his own. Thank you Resse:.

Personally, I don't care, I know people who send naughty pictures, I have received a few, and its just like "Okay, whatever" delete.

The term 'sexting' makes me giggle, but that's because I'm immature.

In the end, it's the girl's choice. It's her body and if she chooses to show it to other people, wether it's in person or in pictures, it's her decision. Who are we to tell her what she can and can't do with her own body?

The point of a journal is to post your opinion on a subject. Not to change the world.

WARNING: NO DIVING I'm letting her know that this subject would go better in an article.

To be honest, I don't care about sexting. But she does. And I care about that.
