there is nothing inherently wrong with our naked bodies. society has conditioned us to have shame. once upon a time, being naked was normal.

Yeah I'd still rather people not show off photos of me without them asking. Its okay to have privacy.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago (2 children)

This has now gone to: sharing baby pictures is a privacy violation because the baby can’t give consent.

Lot of very special people in this thread on Lemmy today.

I haven’t been able to peg Lemmy down even after a year and this thread hasn’t helped. Lemmy is pro-freedom, acceptance, and FOSS, is literal to the point of absurdity, has a selectively activated superiority complex, and averages ~17 years old. Knowing all of that, I’m still endlessly befuddled. Any chance you’ve got the last puzzle piece?

Lemmy skews way older. Like 30+ average I'd say.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

There are many users over 30 but they are the minority. The clear absence of memory beyond what I’d personally describe as recent is pretty telling. I really have nothing tangible to back the assertion but it’s fairly apparent to me as a person of an age.

this particular thread seems to have brought out a real strange bunch today.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It's a majority (or close to) 40yr old tech autists. I'm not trying to be funny, I'm not trying to be offensive, that's just a statement of fact.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

I’ll have to ruminate on this.

sharing naked with their genitals exposed baby pictures is a privacy violation

Lot of very special people in this thread on Lemmy today.

Yes, yes there are.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, i mean in today's world, i value privacy too, but don't you wish you lived in a world where we were more in tune with the natural world and our natural selves?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I’m betting this same person you are arguing with is a vocal atheist who doesn’t realize religion is what imposed this shame upon our natural form, and probably that taboo contributes to the sexualization.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

i'm an atheist and i realize that.

i agree with some other folks on here. i think there are a lot of children who haven't thought this stuff all the way through yet.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Id be quite curious if you're a nudist. If you're fine and happy to run amok without clothes on, have at it!

Dont be an ass. Don't share naked photos of people. Its really not that difficult of a concept to have.

STOP SHARING NAKED IMAGES OF PEOPLE WHO CANNOT CONSENT

IT IS THEIR BODY, NOT THEIR PARENTS AND NOT YOURS

WHY IS CONSENT SO HARD FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND

[–] [email protected] -1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

wow. you are triggered. you must still be young enough that this hits home for you.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I'm an adult

I'm sure you wouldn't want your parents taking naked pictures of you now and showing people

How is it any different from when you are a baby

[–] [email protected] -1 points 5 months ago

because i was...

wait for it...

a baby.

grow up.

Lay off the caps lock bud.
