If you show your tits to the internet on an open platform anyone can leave comments on, you automatically consent to people looking at your tits and commenting on them.
Comment on That explains it.
AsherahTheEnd@lemmy.world 3 months agoI think the issue is, when reveling in your sexuality, everyone involved must consent. It’s hard to say whether posting pics of you in revealing clothes is consent for old men to ogle or not. I’d say if you post it publicly, then it should be fine for said old men to respectfully ogle. But if said old men decide to comment something like, “would love to squirtle on those jigglypuffs” on the revealing image, we’re suddenly entering nonconsensual territory. So there’s a fine line and it’s easy to cross. Simply loving looking at boobs on the internet is fine; many women enjoy being admired. But if you take it any further, that’s when problems arise. Enjoy your sexuality responsibility, my friends. 💕

So do you get off on being an ass or is it just something that naturally happens?

If someone climbs on a soapbox to spout racist shit, you wouldn’t have any problem with random people heckling them.
It’s the same with showing your tits online.
If you don’t want to attract creepy comments, don’t do stuff that attracts creepy people.

“If women don’t want to be sexually harassed why do they have boobs?”

Maybe that extremist view of consent is a disease.

My bad for thinking consent is important, boy am I glad a bunch of men decided to tell me consent is actually bullshit!

Put something on a public platform = accept that people will look at it. Allow for people to comment on it and you invite these comments. If someone wants to post pictures and not get comments on them, they can post them to a platform that doesn’t allow comments.

That’s right! Exactly.
For instance, this is public, and if a bunch of random weirdos came in here and started saying things like “whoa, who let the monkey out of his cage?” or “I’m about to put something on his public platform = 1,000 unsolicited dicks,” there’s absolutely nothing you, or I, can do about that—and it would be wrong to do anything, of course!
You’re cool, man, you get it.

Edit: it’s both extremely telling and extremely concerning how much my rational take on consent is triggering all these pathetic men.
You initial comment was rational, it was well-thought out and you made a fair point while ending the comment on a positive note. Left alone, I would have upvoted your well-considered opinion and moved on.
However, your follow up responses and your edit were unprovoked ad hominem sexist attacks where you assume everyone who disagrees is a mansplaining penis-wielder whose words have less value than your own. While having your views challenged can be difficult, responding in the manner you are only detracts from your argument.

I would love to know which women are set off by this.

If you don’t want people spreading your images, wanking to your images, making crude comment about your images, oogling your images, etc etc. And I don’t mean just nudes, I mean any picture you post…
Then don’t post them online.
because once they hit the internet, in any capacity, you’ve lost all control of them, forever. They will still be there to be discovered when you are lying in a nursing home at 104 years old, Your descendants so far removed that they dont even know your name will still be at risk of stumbling upon them. People on the other side of the planet might use it in advertising or virtual sex dolls without you ever knowing.
You might not like it, you might not want it, you might not consent to it, but its still going to happen.
And if you want it to not happen, don’t post things online.

Whatever you say, really don’t care. I don’t need some rando to tell me shit I already know.
A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 3 months ago
“I don’t care what some rando has to say, now let me go back to posting on the site full of randos talking to eachother.”
AsherahTheEnd@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Sorry, I should have said I don’t care to be mansplained about basic shit about how posting things on the internet works. You guys are really fucking obnoxious, it’s telling how badly my comment about consent set you all off.
