Ok.... Let's rejig this


Some geezer is doing the doors at an underage disco. See's 2 teenagers getting jiggy, takes a picture, posts it on the internet. Is that OK?

Yeah they probably aren't riding but I really don't get how people don't think this is a bit off to share on a high profile social media account, I've the feeling if it was some random middle aged white dude taking the pics a lot more people would be finding it dubious as hell.

Is that the whole point of the picture? He was in the room and he was able to take that photo because nobody was paying attention.

Who said Drake took it?

Two underage people is rather different to two people particularly if consent has not been given.
I say white because this is an Irish pic and thats the traditional stereotype of a pervy character.

Not necessarily re stereotype, and what age are the two people? It's basically impossible to tell from the photo - you can't see their faces their body types apart from that they are thin, their height, or really anything barring the colour of their hair and clothes. EDIT: Actually you can't even make out the colour of their clothes.

It's not like a Drake concert is an underage event or even something like say a Justin Bieber concert - he's hugely popular with people all through their teens and 20s (though even as someone who enjoys a fair bit of rap music, I have no idea why...)

Yep, and we're in the British Isles, so we're British.

Well to be fair, if you ask people from South or Central America if they've 'ever been to America' they tend to be fairly unimpressed.

I know, just being a pedant for the sake of it.

And to be fair, most Canadians if you asked them if they were American would be equally unimpressed.

Yeah actually your probably right, it doesn't seem like their faces are properly visible, that said everybody else in the picture looks under 18 and it seems a reasonable assumption that they are too

Maybe someone from the photography forum can clarify the publication/consent thing on this

To be honest I think it's pretty interesting - the girl on the phone is hard to tell though at a guess anywhere from 16-19, but girl using the ATM does look very young, and that's probably what it making people's to jump to conclusions most of all despite the body language not showing any signs that the girl on her phone, girl on the ATM, and the couple know each other from Adam. The human brain is a funny auld one like that.
