JUST DON’T.

Don’t be mean. Don’t bully. Don’t expose someone. Don’t steal. JUST DON’T.

I cannot believe that over 100 women have had nude photos STOLEN from them. WHY? HOW? How could someone be so creepy and mean spirited that they’d go to great efforts to hack into someone’s phone and steal personal photos? I am seriously getting so bummed out by mean people. Why would you want to purposefully hurt someone like that? If said person hasn’t made the nude photo public, then why would you think it’s your job to share it? We can only hope that these victims are strong enough to not be affected by this horrendous act of bullying and theft.

Like it or not, our lives are now lived mostly online. While I like to see social media as a positive thing, more and more often, I see the Internet being used for evil. Just because you’re active online, doesn’t mean that you are public property. We need to treat the Internet and people’s lives with respect. You wouldn’t go into someone’s house and steal photos from their picture drawer, would you? (The correct answer here is NO.) Then don’t steal from people online. You might as well be breaking their window.

To all of the women (and men) who have been violated by someone online, I beg you to please be strong and to know that you are still amazing and beautiful and that NONE of this was your fault. Lots of people take naked photos. Unfortunately, some people are also dickheads who like to steal photos from people. #nudiestrong
