DISCLAIMER
In regards to the recent fiasco with Chloe Bailey, and the threads on the silhouette challenge, I have to say that it's getting hard to feel bad for the victims. And yes, this sounds like victim blaming, and I'll call a spade a spade, they are victims (of bullying?) but I can't feel bad for them.
Why?
Because A LOT of men on this free internet are [Insert truth no one wants to hear]. I'll say "weirdos" for now.
We all know it, they know it, it's been this way forever.
Please note, this is not exclusive to men.
But EARFQUAKE, if you blame the victim instead of the weirdos, they'll never be accountable for their behavior. This is dangerous rhetoric you're spouting and could very easily be relayed to how a rape victim is dressed.
Please know there is a difference in what I'm trying to point out here. We all know that most rape victims are raped by people close to them and it NEVER has anything to do with how the victim is dressed or any aspect of the victim for that matter. The women I'll be mentioning below are not in the same category as rape victims.

CHLOE BAILEY
Now that we're beyond that (or not) Chloe Bailey did absolutely 100% nothing wrong. The women who do the silhouette challenge or any hypersexual challenges have done nothing wrong.
What's wrong, or what I should say, what I disagree with, is the reaction to known foolishness.
CB did what she did publicly...and then started crying about the negative feedback she received from the public.
Why do we expect 100% positive affirmation? This is the internet. There are weirdos and hating ass eggheads being weirdos and eggheads for NO REASON. You exist, they have a reason.
Fans coming to her rescue, that's a given. Fans are gonna do what fans do. But IRL, one of Cloe's friend would look her dead in the eyes and tell her to either ignore it or post more videos. Because arguing with trolls will only waste your time. Ask me how I know. And this is why CB isn't at fault for her reaction completely, she's clueless at the time being. Thing is, she needs to have that wake up call sooner than later.

ALLEGED EDITED SILHOUETTE CHALLENGE
Do I think editing a video to expose more nudity is sexual assault? No, because it doesn't meet the definition of what assault is.
Now sexual harassment? Borderline. Because this isn't like someone minding their own business was put on a deepfake porn video. It meets some of the criteria for harassment, and it's definitely weirdo behavior.
Now my take on this is just to say I think editing someone's video to expose more nudity they didn't consent to showing is wrong. THANKFULLY, the editing of the videos didn't catch on, so I think there's more of a conversation on whether or not women exploiting themselves should feel uncomfortable with having something they put on the internet publicly exploited.

IN CONCLUSION
While I appreciate all the smoke the fans and sexual freedom fighters have for the weirdos, we need to tell the women engaging in public display of sexual deviancy the reality of what to expect once it's out there.
So EARFQUAKE, are you saying doing the Buss It challenge or any kind of challenge where women get to show off their assets is sexual deviancy?
Yeah. If I need to break that down I will.
OK so what was the point? You said all that to say a whole lot of nothing.
Because instead of relying on strangers to do the right thing and protect you, we should learn to take precautions in protecting ourselves. Limit the exposure, don't post it at all, or ignore the inherent weirdo behavior.
