Have you ever taken nude or embarrassing selfies using your cell phone?

Do you EVER watch adult-only videos on a portable device (iPad, tablet, cell phone, laptop) you take out of your home?

I don't think it's anyone's business.

I assume the question is a parallel of the teacher thread. I think the younger generation does such stuff a lot without thinking about the consequences when their phones fall into the wrong hands.

 Agree. I also think there is nothing wrong with some spicy pictures being part of a committed relationship. However, I think too many young people are too quick to snap and send such pictures.

I also love how everyone wants to act like this is something new. People have been taking nude pictures of themselves and others for as long as there have been cameras. While going thru an old box of pictures, I found a Polaroid of my mother in a state of undress. The difference these days is the ease in which people share them.

Our problem is not the pictures. Our problem is the moral decay that has made kids think it's ok to share them far and wide.

All I can say is thankfully Polaroids fade after a few years, unlike digital selfies.

I do not understand the desire to take regular selfies, let alone naked ones.

Okay, I posed for a photo shoot in lingerie for the ex. I took the pics with me. They were tasteful. I was a little embarrassed when he showed them to his father, RIP. Anyway, they're around here somewhere. My mother told me one day they'll be on the walls, proving how good I looked in my younger years. LOL

 Thank you!

When we were on vacation, selfie sticks were almost everywhere. I jokingly asked DS1's friend if he remembered to pack his.

He looked at me and said, "I would kick my own azz."

(I told him that I was stealing that line...after I finished laughing...)

My girlfriend and I took our daughters to see Taylor Swift. We sent out girls ahead of us into the venue. Then we stayed out in the parking lot a bit to continue our tailgate. And, on the way in we bought some cowboy hats and snapped a pic of us in our cowboy hats in front of a big Taylor Swift sign while holding a beer, lol. So, yeah, maybe that!

Selfies are just pictures with the photographer in the picture.

We will sometimes snap one in the car while on trips or while at dinner or events.

I'd rather keep the memory in my head rather than worrying about a stupid photo.

I took selfies long before they had camera phones. Because I traveled alone, and didn't want to bother strangers to take pictures of me at various places.

 My friends and family enjoy seeing photos of each other in our travels. Do you not share your photos with your friends? Oh wait....

When I went to Paris my mother complained I didn't have enough pictures with me in it. So I bought a "selfie" stick which my camera screwed on. This was before iPhones and iPhone selfie sticks. We used the selfie stick and camera combo in Greece. We got some really good photos together.

I hate being the one taking the group shot. The person doing that is up close and really in an awkward position.

I travel alone alot. I take photos and share them, but I do not care to be in the photos. My friends know what I look like.

 I went to school in England for 3 months during my sophomore year in college. I decided that I could spend my time fussing with my camera, or just experience the land.

My sister and her husband have all kinds of selfies chronicling their 20+ year relationship. My brother-in-law has really long arms, so they kind of just look like regular pictures lol

I voted NO.  I have never taken a selfie.  I have no photos of me on my phone.  I do not like being in photos and prefer being behind the lens.  It's bad enough that I have to look at myself once a day in the bathroom mirror every morning.
