If you receive naked pictures from a partner and you subsequently break up, do you delete those naked pictures or save them?

[OlderAndWiser]

I have never taken a naked picture of myself. If I received naked pictures from someone else, I would treat them as respectfully as I would hope that they would treat pictures of me.

In most states in the US, sending or receiving nude pictures of a minor is treated as child pornography and can expose you to criminal penalties. Also, posting nude pictures of an adult without their written consent is now a crime in most states.

[Aguysopinion4799]

I have never received nor given a naked picture, I consider them a very careless thing to do because once it is sent then you are no longer in control of what the person does with that content, they could show anyone content of you naked even if you say they aren't allowed to.

If I did receive a naked photo, I think at first I would find it a turn on depending on who sent it, but afterwards I would delete it out of respect for the persons privacy and putting myself in their shoes I would never want others to see myself naked, so even if I liked the photo I wouldn't want it stuck on my phone where someone might accidentally see it but also because even if they consensually sent it I would not want them doing things like that, naked activity should be kept to the bedroom and in a place where others won't see it and be able to take advantage of seeing it.

There have been many cases where people have blackmailed people with their own naked photos by saying they will show others if they don't do what they want, so it is a very dangerous thing to do, I would seriously advise that you don't do it.

I'd delete them as soon as I received them. I don't send that kind of stuff and I wouldn't want my girlfriend sending me that kind of stuff. The only thing I ever did was record a video with a girlfriend because I moved away and we figured it was better than porn. I encrypted that video and we deleted it when I moved back. It should most definitely be illegal not to delete things like that, difficult to enforce, but no one should have revealing pictures of someone without their consent, whether they post them or not.

[ItsTia]

was it a sex tape? sorry 😝

[Kkaos]

@ItsTia Eh lol. No.

[flamiE]

Of course, that goes without saying. I mean, why would I keep them anyway, I don’t want to be reminded of something that’s in the past and I imagine it’d be pretty weird to my next boyfriend too.. another thing I could think of is blackmail.. but I wouldn’t do that if I got his nudes he most definitely got mines too. I also respect my exes, the fact that it didn’t work out doesn’t mean we should be disrespectful towards one another. We’re adults and should have some decency. Even without him asking I’d delete them and I’d trust that he’d delete mines too.

[el_Te_de_la_Rosa]

I deleted all photos and drawings of my crush. Only the topless pic of him I received. I think if a man asks for a nude pic from a woman before both are in a serious relationship. He asked to see my "tits", I didn't send to him or anyone. (Actually, I wouldn't send any nude at all even if that's my husband. Who knows if one day he changes his mind.) It's really risky - the pics could be leaked. I don't want to be seen by everybody online. My reputation is my ego.

[OlderAndWiser]

That is absolutely right thinking!

[el_Te_de_la_Rosa]

Thank you. I just recall a comedian who talked about his son.

As I'd delete all pictures of us together and of him, I'd delete all nudes/vids as well. It was only ever with my first boyfriend where I was still young and immature - not knowing of the consequences, where I sent him a nude and he sent me nudes and vids. It was when things got sour and he broke up with me that he used it against me. Never again have I displayed nor sent anything of myself unclothed.

[MarkyMark77]

@ineedatan ouch im sorry! what happened?

[NamerOfStars]

As we've seen time and time again, putting something "in the cloud" is different from freely distributing it only in how long it takes to get out there. I keep what I get on machines that never connect to any network- but I keep it. Memories of better times.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

I had someone send me a pic of his D a couple hours for he came to my house, but I deleted it same day...
So by the time we weren't talking anymore, wouldn't a mattered, cuz it was gone same day it was sent

[OlderAndWiser]

I guess he was not the master of the subtle approach.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Lolol right...

[RemoErdosain]

I still have my ex's pictures. The break-up is recent, and I don't even look at them, but in case I die single, I think it is some sort of memory that there was a time where someone at least found me attractive enough to exchange nudes. I wouldn't share them anywhere, and won't even show them to friends, even though she wronged me. That's a line I just wouldn't cross. Don't trust other people will be the same, though; I bet I'm in the minority

[OlderAndWiser]

"I bet I'm in the minority" I hope not.

[RemoErdosain]

I hope so too, but just in case, I believe I learned that lesson. Can't give someone else that power over me. The risk/reward is not in one's favor

[Lliam]

I probably wouldn't delete them, but I would never, ever share them.

[Red_Arrow]

Child pornography is not up to the states. It is a federal law.
Images of child pornography are not protected under First Amendment rights, and are illegal contraband under federal law. Section 2256 of Title 18, United States Code, defines child pornography as any visual depiction of sexually explicit conduct involving a minor (someone under 18 years of age)

[midnightmoon05]

I don't take naked pictures or ask for one.
It's more important for me to get to know them over the phone then in person.

I have received without asking when I was on POF. I later learned, those where guys who were seeking for attention outside of their relationship... and didn't want to meet. Once I received their pictures, I deleted, told them I would report them and blocked those guys.
At one point, I wanted to take studio pictures of me and my ex husband when we were newly married as a form of art.
Other than that... no naked pictures.

[Can-I-Get-A-DoOver]

I would never trust the cloud with naked pics.

[Red_Arrow]

I looked up at the sky the other day and saw the clouds forming images of naked girls photos stored there. :-)

[Can-I-Get-A-DoOver]

@Red_Arrow that’s so funny! thanks.

[Cougar2Yall]

Other than publicly humiliating your ex, it shows what a vengeful heart you have.

[JackSmy]

I NEVER send nudes to anyone, that can be identified!! OMG!! What if I want to be President some day!! LOL!!!
Many have sent me nudes, and when I break up, they go to a separate, offline USB stick, just in case!
Almost every time, I have parted, well, with ones I have loved, and we just knew, mutually, that we were going in different directions, in our lives. Those images go the the TREASURED MEMORIES stick! Safe, and no copies on any computer, so they are safe and protected.
The two, when we broke up badly, their pics go on a separate USB stick, just in case she decides to post some shit, or hate. For me, those images are like Nuclear Weapons!! I have them, and NEVER, EVER want to use them, to embarrass her. Only if she posts, online shit, and embarrasses me!

[ThiccBoai]

After the break up I'll wait eith looking st the pictures and just throw them together on one pile in a folder somewhere. After the pain is gone or at least not as bad anymore I'll go through all the pictures I have from her. I'll delete all the pics that are double or bad, but also all the pictures with her naked, part of her body naked or even where she has cleavage. I don't need those pictures to begin with, but after the relationship ends, it feels weird even having them. I wanna keep the fun memories, not porn

[Rocco7070]

Delete

[Tamera952]

Save them of course, add them to my collection. That's why you should be careful about what you're sending people. Just like other hacks, the person you send it to could have all the best intentions, but what if his computer is compromised, and so on.

[5points2gspot]

Delete. What’s the point to reminisce over what will never be.

[PixelNight]

I would never want them to break my trust, even if we broke up, so I wouldn’t want to break theirs. The most moral thing in my opinion would be to always delete them.

[OlderAndWiser]

You seem to have a good moral compass!

[PixelNight]

Thank you! :)

[CubsterShura]

I never received a naked picture, I think I have only seen a few shirtless pictures only a few times and I don't keep them either, I'm just that shy. But in case I somehow miraculously had his naked pictures I'd delete them if we broke up.

[Boss2000]

It would have to be D for me. They're great for masturbation.

[MarkyMark77]

@boss2000 didn't know girls like looking at a guys dick for that. either ur an exception or lots of girls are liars haha. ( i think they lie lol). can we chat about it im curious?

[Boss2000]

@MarkyMark77 what if I had ex-girlfriends never thought about that did you

[ItalianSausage]

If you think those are good for masturbating, imagine how good my cumshot videos are 😏

[BeenThereLovedIt]

I've only been in the situation once. We split and I just deleted everything permanently. I was kind of pissed at her too, and didn't want anything to remember her by anyways.

[Avicenna]

I've always thought sending nudes was dumb and dangerous, even when it's between consenting adults. An ex wanted me to send her a nude pic once and I'm glad I never did.

[Agape93]

Delete them immediately.
