Chicken, I think digital cams have made folks less likely to think about what they are doing/developing. With the ability to instantly upload a photo to the web where, let’s be serious, can never really be retracted, what you have done is out there for good. Not needing to wait to have film developed leaves no time to reconsider the photo. Thus, the racy photos a lot of folks regret.
Does anyone else think that the proliferation of digital cameras, where the marginal cost of a photo is zero, will lead to the most narcissistic generation the world has ever seen?
Actually (can’t believe I’m admitting this) when I was younger I was a ho answering to ads that appeared in South Brooklyn area newspapers. There were pics of my naked ass surrounded by glass pumps. *Good God!* I know, I know, it’s probably not as bad as candid shots of me wearing glass pumps, but all of south Brooklyn in the 90’s saw my bare bum. Horrifying.

BRG, I thought they used photos of models for those ads rather than the real thing? Bit like McDonalds with their hamburgers…
Good story though.
LOL

I think rob probably still squats to pee. 🙂
Hm, you may be right about that DIBS, a lot of children squat to pee. I saw the word ‘crapper’ and jumped the gun…
Do tell, BRG, do tell!
cobble & Biff…again, you jump to conclusions. I think rob squats to pee.
