I just got this email from a blog reader who needs “constructive” advice on her predicament. Read her mail below:
“I am a 30-year-old working class lady who split from my boyfriend mid-last year and have just started dating again due to pressure from my family to get married. I’m seeing a man I met at a friend’s birthday party earlier this year. In the past couple of weeks he’s sent me some intimate photos of himself (which I found shocking, to say the least) and asked for unclad pictures in return. I feel uncomfortable with the idea of sending my unclad photos to a guy? Would I look too “old-school” if I don’t oblige his request? Insults not required, only constructive advises needed. Thanks as always, TSB”
Do you think she should proceed with his requests against the backdrop of revenge porn and blackmails over the afore-mentioned issue? How can she guarantee he won’t show his friends or have his phone stolen?
