In Texas releasing nude photos sent to you without permission of the individual is against the law. tammywammy Nov 2017 #10

What if said individual send you these photos without you asking for them? LisaL Nov 2017 #11

It is a Class A misdemeanor tammywammy Nov 2017 #15

She doesn't admit to publicly posting it. LisaL Nov 2017 #18

She shared it with someone and it's been posted on the internet. tammywammy Nov 2017 #21

Actually, we don't know what ended up on the internet. LisaL Nov 2017 #22

I say turn them over to the proper law enforcement, not publicly Luz Nov 2017 #45

I still don't agree with the law, because it puts burden on a receiver of images to LisaL Nov 2017 #52

Only if she was in Texas? sarah FAILIN Nov 2017 #12

I don't think this would qualify as revenge porn. LisaL Nov 2017 #13

Agreed sarah FAILIN Nov 2017 #17

Revenge porn or nonconsensual pornography is illegal in most states and DC madville Nov 2017 #14

That's the law in Texas madville Nov 2017 #19

Doesn't sound like a good law. LisaL Nov 2017 #20

So, imagine you're in a relationship with someone. tammywammy Nov 2017 #25

The woman in question claims she didn't want the photos. LisaL Nov 2017 #26

I've been sent unsolicited dick pics. tammywammy Nov 2017 #29

So you think when this guy send it to you without even asking, he had a reasonable expectation of LisaL Nov 2017 #31

Yes. I don't think they expect the receiver to share the photo or post it on the internet. n/t tammywammy Nov 2017 #34

Maybe then they shouldn't send it. LisaL Nov 2017 #35

I think that expectation is unreasonable. Unsolicited pics are different from VermontKevin Nov 2017 #42

Yeah, so in response, she flew to Washington, slept with him, carried on for a while, jberryhill Nov 2017 #44

if she didn't want them, why did she keep them? onenote Nov 2017 #49

That law is kind of bizarre. LisaL Nov 2017 #61

Solicited or not, it's not illegal in most places for an adult to send an adult a nude picture. madville Nov 2017 #27

The important point is that she got them while them two were in a relationship. DetlefK Nov 2017 #53

I don't see anything in the text of the law supporting that idea. LisaL Nov 2017 #58

Once you give me something, isn't it my property? Irish_Dem Nov 2017 #55

That's the thing I don't understand about this law. LisaL Nov 2017 #56

I agree, the law can't protect people from their own stupidity. nt Irish_Dem Nov 2017 #59
