I replied here before, but I guess my reply was misconstrued.

I'm an artist, and as such, when I see a nude body, I don't automatically find it sexual. I see curves and lines, shadow and light, all playing out on a flesh toned canvas. It's actually pretty breathtaking to me in a purely artistic sense.

Americans have oversexualized every thing about nudity to the point where seeing a toddler run around naked as a jaybird should be behavior that is condemned and corrected, much less a fully grow adult. I've grown to love my body, and how it feels to let it breathe every once in a while. Just because someone isn't wearing clothes doesn't mean they are being in any way remotely sexual or should be ashamed.

Also, we all have a body, with hair and skin, some rounder, some leaner, some more toned some less toned. It's how we came into this world, so why be ashamed of that? It's the very way we were when first we layed eyes on the world, innocent and pure and untouched by the woes and worries and fears that later in life consumed us. I say embrace the human form, in all it's different shapes and sizes, not scorn it.

OP Whether or not you care, it was completely disrespectful for people to share without your consent.

BTW, I am not shaming her for taking them, I am upset by those who shared them.

Wow, I couldn't have said it better, well done, Artchic! I guess I should have picked up by your name on here that you were an artist, yet, I just realised it. lol I guess when things are too obvious, they're so obvious we don't even realise them.

I'm an artist too and one of my favorite part in drawing is drawing human bodies. So many muscles, so many little details that come in all sizes, all the angles we can put the body in motion, it's breath-taking. It reminds me that the other day at the gym, people thought I was gay because I said aesthetically, this other guy's body looked great, very proportionnal, his muscles well defined, you could see he put a lot of work into his training and said I wanted to have sex with him. I know it was a joke but still, what has our societies come to... It's always sex, sex, sex, no grey zone, just pure white and pure black.

Well, thanks!

Yeah, most guys are at the gym to work out. Not share how they feel about each other's bodies. I feel a lot of guys don't share how they feel about things nearly enough. I made a thread about that not too long ago, about how guys are forced into thinking that keeping their feelings bottled up inside is more masculine than sharing them with others.

A guy had my nudes told me he showed his friend. I had him for months and wanted to kill myself. A bit of an excessive reaction plus he was only telling him that he thought i was pretty and he asked for nudes they other must of felt curious and he showed him. I attacked him and now think he's a ****** person mmm... hmmm... Now, I am thinking c'mon your family talks about your boobs being saggy as if you weren't there and you feel like this guy has raped you and violated you a bit excessive. He was just silly not a bad person but yeah I over react it would feel nice not to have shame over anything for a chance and not be so reactive all the freaking time. That is my wish.

It is fine that you don't care but 100 people is a lot of people and who are these people who got to see your pics? Was it posted online? If it is some random people is one thing but if it is your boss then it's slightly different. It also depends on your life style. Do you work and where? Do you have a partner and what does he/she does for a living? One can only be free spirit to an extend. People have professional obligations that don't allow them to be completely free

I am not easily embarrassed and don't particularly care if people see me naked ( especially when I was younger lol) but I teach high school and wouldn't be pleased with my naked pics floating online. No need for my students to see me naked.

Oh gee I didn't see that actually your pics were distributed at work? What kind of work is it? What does your boss say?

Everyone who knows about this should be reporting it to the authorities and the FBI.

Np!

Yeah and we're supposed to never cry, show any weakness and literally, be perfect. The funny thing, is that, while never crying (it just don't happen anymore), I have no problem admitting my mistakes and my flaws. I'm not perfect ...though I'm getting dangerously close. lol Just joking. People I hang out with, tell me everybody love me because of that. I'm not trying to be someone else, I'm genuine. They say I'm kind and simple and I believe it's accurate, if everyone was kind and simple, there would be sooo much less problems on Earth! Some tell me it's simplistic to think that way but I beg to difer, I wasn't always like this. I spent 2 years working on myself, I changed and everybody has the potential to change. It just takes time and dedication, what many don't have.

I just never feel embarrassed about anything and don't really understand why.
How did they get a hold of them?
