No it should not be made illegal. Imposing this sort of control on people is absolutely obscene.

Most young people aren't stupid, they're aware of the risks and if they decide to send naked pictures - which i consider to be different to 'sexting' - they have to accept what might happen as a result. What we should be encouraging is skepticism - of people's intentions, integrity etc. Revenge porn is going to be made a criminal offence anyway (at least over here i believe), so there will be greater control over images and videos that don't necessarily have the consent of all parties involved. That criminal liability will most likely extend it's reach in the future and websites will play a greater part in warning their members of potential prosecution etc.

It's important to remember that sex means different things to different generations - i would say mine is not generally phased by it. I mean it's in our tv shows, our music, it simply doesn't have the shock value you might expect. That's not to say our behaviour isn't influenced accordingly or that we're invulnerable. But like other generations, this is a challenge that belongs to us. We are the ones that should be influencing the law and making known what's important to us - it's when you go to the source that you get a true picture of what's really happening, and what's going to be most effective in tackling it.
