    I think everyone’s still trying to get some handle on this, but it seems like it’s mostly an issue with scale.

    People have been making and sharing photo manips of celebrities naked for about 20 years. This is just noteworthy because there’s so much of it, so quickly produced, so publicly present.

    I think we should all have the right to create images – including sexual ones – freely. And I think the subjects of those images (especially Emma Watson and Natalie Portman, I don’t think anyone has been photoshopped into porn as much as those two) deserve to live their lives without having to see it or thick about it.

    I don’t think it’s necessary a problem that has an easy legal solution, but a good start might be just recognizing this social contact. If you want to fantasize about anyone – whether it’s a celebrity or someone you take classes with – understand how gross it is for them to have two know about it, and keep it discrete.
