Middle schoolers face child porn charges for sexy texted pics

Child porn or awesome? That’s the question facing a Massachusetts area court for six teenage boys who exchanged a nude photo of a similarly-aged female. Though I imagine the judge going “The court finds the defendants….AWESOME!” probably wouldn’t be received well.

Six middle school students could face child porn charges after a boy took a nude photo of his 13-year-old girlfriend and “sexted” it to his pals’ cell phones, cops said.

The six boys, ages 12 to 14, will be summoned to Falmouth District Court for a hearing to determine whether they should be charged with possessing, exhibiting or distributing child porn in the form of a text message photo, according to The Cape Cod Times.

Columbia University Professor Sari Locker said surveys suggest one in five teens has sent or received nude or semi-nude pictures. “When boys receive a nude picture of a girl, they think the next time they see her they can go further with her in a sexual way than before,” she said. “It becomes an invitation to advance a sexual relationship.” But Locker said she believes criminal charges are excessive: “Clearly these boys are not sexual predators or pedophiles.”

I think it’s kind of horsecrap how the boys are always getting in trouble for this. What about the girl? She basically mindraped all these poor innocent young boys. They’re just victims in this crazy technologically advanced world.

I feel like I’ve covered this story way too much and it’s easy to continue to make the same cliched “GUY” joke about like how “WHY DIDN’T GIRLS DO SHIT LIKE THIS WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL AMIRITE” but I think the more applicable question is why don’t I know more high school girls who are doing this right now? I mean I’m more than capable of going down to the schools and introducing myself. But that’s the problem: my lack of ambition. And lack of a trenchcoat. Which really ties back into the ambition thing.
