Something that has been hitting the news recently has been athletes and celebrities being overexposed, in a very bad way. A couple of weeks ago, Portland Trailblazer Greg Oden experienced a PR nightmare when pictures surfaced of his "male parts" (for lack of better words) all over the internet. Oden was embarrassed, and said the pictures were for an old girlfriend, and somehow, were spread on the net. Another kind of situation like this occured when San Antonio Spurs guard George Hill appeared in nude photos on a website, and the pictures seem to have been taken from his mobile phone. There are cases like this everywhere, with the most popular being Kim Kardashian and rapper Ray-J's self made sex tape that surfaced a couple of years back. This caused both stars public embarrassment, and tons of endorsement. Celebrities just can't seem to get away from the camera, and it is a shame! If they don't want creepy middle aged men and young teenage girls treating their bodies like an amusement park, simply quit the dirty play. It's about being thruthful to yourself and having self respect. I'm sure these celebrities don't want the entire world knowing what they have underneath their clothing, so they should probably take my advice.
On a more local level, things like this have happened in high schools. Girls would take photos for their boyfriend, and once they broke up, the boyfriend would show all of his friends what kind of goodies his girl was hiding. This is downright disgusting and should not be tolerated. My word to the wise, BE SMART! Don't let it happen to you. There is no need to send pictures via email, facebook, text message, etc. If only Kim took my advice....
