    you found a nude picture of a good friend of yours on the net?

    * would you tell them straight away (and risk making the friendship awkward for a while at lease)
    * not let them know and just delete it (and forever know there are people on the net who see it every day....)
    * keep it for your private collection (and risk never being able to look at your friend straight again)
    * use it as blackmail/pass it on for the laugh (and lose a good friend)

    or maybe theres something else youd do... please elaborate...

    Tell them. The sooner they get cosmetic surgery to look different, the better.

    yeah I think is the best solution :D

    what circumstances are they nude in? sexual, drunken, streak? are they aware/do you think they may be aware the photo existed in the first place. What will telling them gain? Who is sending it around? wep page or attachment?


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 10,247 Mod ✭✭✭✭flogen


    stop the questions!!
    its a hypothetical situation, and lets just say its a sexy nude pose, but nothing really explicit. they must know it exists as they seem to be aware in the pic...

    if they didnt know i guess id tell them. depending on who it was. some mates require different approaches than others.

    im guessing this happened to you?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,016 ✭✭✭✭vibe666


    had this kinda happen twice.

    once there was a photo of what looked to be of a good friends g/f in a rather odd (and lewd) pose with an iron which someone else had told me was here. i had a look, and it did indeed look like my mates girl, os after some discussion (and futher investigation of the picture, i got him round and showed him. glad i did cos it turned out it wasn't her (some moles and other stuff was different as well as the colour of the *cough* rug, and it turned out it wasn't her at all.

    the other time a girl was all over me in a club (someone i knew) and a really wasn't up for it because she had a bit of a reputation and i wasn't really looking forward to being the next on her list. a male friend of mine had witnessed this and was trying to convince me that we could get her back to his place and make a bit of a home movie of sorts with the 3 of us. i bowed out shortly afterwards and left him to it, but found out one of my other mates wasn't so shy and that they had gone and done exactly what they set out to do and she was apparently well up for it.

    anyway over the next few days word went round about the tape and what they'd gotten up to because it was a small town (in tenerife) and just happened to be full of horny young (and old) men who were more than happy to pay to see it. my mate being the money hungry type was putting on 3 or 4 shows a day before and after work and made quite a tidy sum.

    anyway, she started saying she was drugged and raped, which and although she was grugged, given that she had got what they had taken herself from someone she knew (i had been aware of this before i left for the evening as she'd suggested to me that we get some stuff to take home for playtime, before i buggered off). anyway the rape allegation was pretty serious and she was talking about going to the police which worried my mates somewhat. they showed me the tape anyway, and not only was she a very willing participant, but spent quite a lot of time talking about how she used to skin up for her old boyfriend who was a scag addict because most of the time he was too messed up to do it himself.

    OK, so not sure how relevent a story it is, but it's kinda along the same lines, and just one of those stories that deserves to be told.

    also about 6 months later she turned up on the net in soft and hardcore poses on a website owned by the local gangster, so she was obviously 'that sort of girl'.

    and to think, she could have been mine. :rolleyes: /sarcasm

    I would probably tell them I guess. Only fair they know (if they don't already)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,761 ✭✭✭✭Winters


    vibe666 .... links please :D

    Oh, and I'd go for Option One too .... Tis better for all.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,107 ✭✭✭TheSonOfBattles


    Heh, when I went to the parents over christmas one of the first things I was shown was a picture of someone who looked like my sister giving a blowjob. Apparantly her boyfriend had found it while watching porn with some friends. He paused it, took the photo with his mobile and has it saved as the screensaver. He thought it was her for a while, but they did a check on credits and **** in the end, and suprise, suprise, it wasn't her. Didn't see the likeness meself, by my sister was going spastic over the picture, my other 2 sisters, there boyfriends and the parents thought it was hilarious, and she eventually saw the funny side. He still has it as the screensaver afaik.

    erm, sonofbattles, you do know that the credits wouldnt have meant much as Im sure most porn stars have a porn-alias.

    anyway, no it hasnt happened to me, just saw a pic earlier that i thought was someone i knew for a second, but after a double-take saw it wasnt, made me wonder how i would have reacted..
    I think id go for option 1 too, but as gobby said, it depends on the person i guess... generally id go for 1 though (but maybe even 1 and 3...;) )

    The name doesn't say much, but the fact that it's a famous porn star that's been living in america making movies on a regular basis for a few years does.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 10,247 Mod ✭✭✭✭flogen

    It depends what kind of lease it is (car or apartment) and how long is left on it.

    Is her name Sis Terofson Ofbattles?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,613 ✭✭✭Lord Nikon


    If it was a male friend of mine, I'd let him know and slag him off about it, and maybe pretend to blackmail him about it(but I wouldn't).

    If it was a female friend, i'd show a close mate about it, to get a second opinion to make sure it was her. I'd let her know about it discreetly, and never mention it again, cause she would freak out.

    defo tell em.... num 1

    Well it depends, if my friend is a girl we could make a deal and exchange my silence with some sex (if she put a pic on the net she must be horny enough) :-) ...just kidding (am I?) :-)

    If he is a guy then I would just save the picture for some evil pourposes in case he stabs me in the back one day (kidding again.... am I??) :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,174 ✭✭✭✭kmart6
