[NSFW] What do you think of men who secretly photograph women while they are naked sunbathing on the beach?

Whenever posting something like this please use the [NSFW] I know you’re new so I’m just letting you know.
As for this question. Why are these women naked? Is this a nude beach? And a girl? How old? OMG!

I mean, it’s rude, sure. I wouldn’t do it…but they’re in public and took their top off. Occupational hazard so to speak. Hell, even swimsuit on, you’re wearing tight and revealing clothes. You DO know that guys are looking, right?

We’re visual creatures. We’re hardwired (most of us) to respond to the female form. Such is life. Blame evolution. But I’ve got news for you, if you’re an attractive female, and males are around…they’re checking you out. Fact of life.

Part of the thrill of doing it is crossing a boundary and creating a fantasy. The man takes the picture and then fantasizes that the woman wants to have sex with him.

There is a certain implied covenant at nude beaches that others are not there for sexual or prurient reasons and taking pictures at a nude beach is certainly a violation of that implied trust, even though not strictly of privacy. I would not want to be with someone who had a phone full of those pictures and I’m glad you said they’re an Ex.

I think it’s creepy and voyeuristic.

There is a difference between professional models who pose and the unsuspecting all-natural women who get their photos taken. No photo shopped touch-ups.
And women (or anyone) who sunbathe out where everyone can see them are somewhat exhibitionists at heart.

Very pervy and predator-like behavior. Glad he is an ex.
Porn accessibility has nothing to do with this behavior. He was crossing a line in real life which is what drove his action. If the girl in the photo was underage then then it is illegal to even have on the device let alone take the photo.

I just googled “can you take photos at a nude beach” and I learned that you’re not supposed to take photos of people there without their permission, as far as etiquette goes:

Really?

Okay. I think your ex whatever violated personal boundaries, and may have broken rules of conduct and privacy – IF the photos were really taken without permission at a beach reserved for naturists. But the info in your question doesn’t really make that clear, and it leaves everyone else guessing.

As far as the rest of what you’re asking, “Why would he..?” “Objectify a woman…?” “Is it dominance…?” “Are women prey…?” “What could be going on…?”

Obviously you’re incredulous. Or oblivious, or who knows…?

Your ex is your problem. And how & why you ended up with his personal phone going through private photos could be another question that no one but you can answer. Are all men to blame because your bad boy offends you? No. They’re not.

Sorry but my answer here is influenced by the fact that I’m bi, and I know that in their own way women can be just as perverse and obsessed as men.

Better luck with your next partner.

I agree with @JLoon.

How did you accidentally find photos on someone else’s phone. Did the phone fall off the shelf and open to naked photos?
What could be going on in your mind to judge this when you secretly looked at his phone?

@forever_free, @Jloon, he handed me his phone with the gallery open and asked me to show him how to only delete the photos he has from the device and not from the whole iCloud (or the opposite, I really don’t remember). What I do know is that I did not go through his phone. And I think it’s beside the point of my question. Maybe you should stop being aggressive.

Good day
