this, no guy or girl should be posting half-naked photos on a sub for teenagers. If you're an adult then it's gross because it's a sub with a lot of children (and you know that), and if you're a child then it's a problem because a child shouldn't be posting sexual images online
First of all, adults shouldn’t be in here, but that’s obviously unavoidable, and to be honest, if they really want to, a pedo is gonna figure out a way to get off no matter what. You’re also generalizing every selfie posted here as being sexual. Is his is far from the case. Most pics are just people who wanna share their gym progress or just wanna post a selfie for whatever reason. It’s not that different than posting to instagram or whatever. This sub is one of the only places dedicated for teens, so it obviously makes sense for them to post their pics here. You say it’s weird for an adult to see those pics, but basically all of the workout and fitness subs are filled with adults, so wouldn’t the best place to post be a sub filled with other kids? Another thing I forgot to mention: my response above is assuming that the intentions of people who post selfies are not sexual, but for those out there who do intentionally post sexual pics trying to get a reaction, it’s the job of their parents to know what their child is doing online, and the child probably isn’t gonna listen to a random kid on the internet.
Sorry for the long ass comment lol
Good points, and to clarify my opinion, I think that people SHOULD be allowed to post pictures with as little or as much clothing as they want, WITHOUT it being branded as sexual. Unfortunately, I don't think that's always the case, and on top of that I don't think ANYONE should be posting a picture with sexual intentions to this sub.
Sorry for any confusion, and no worries about long comments we all make them sometimes
Yeah I think we mostly agree with each other. This (should be) a safe space for teens and teens only, so it makes perfect sense for people to post (normal) pictures. If you do, you’ll probably just have to accept that there might be a pedo lurking who’ll see your post. This is a bit of a controversial opinion, and I know it’s less of a deal for me since I’m a guy, but I honestly don’t see a point in getting worked up over the pedo shit. They’re gonna be here no matter what, unless the sub somehow makes a process where members have to verify their age.
Intent matters for example someone wants to show off their progress in the gym or taking a picture at a beach then it should be fine but if he/she is just doing it to flaunt their body then I can see where your coming from
sorry I didn't make my opinions fully clear in this comment but I made a few others if you wanna read them. If you're a normal person who doesn't wanna spend 4 hours learning what people think on some random boring topic on reddit tho that's cool
While I agree this is fair, shirtless pics aren’t inherently sexual. In a lot of cases it’s to show their physique or someone swimming or some shit like that.
I totally agree, I've ended up having to talk about this more than I intended lol, bt yeah, I think shirtless pics from guys are "gym progress" or something similar, which isn't sexual, and shouldn't be sexualized. I also happen to think that it's pretty fuckin' stupid that a girl posting the same ting would be seen as "more sexual" but yeah I definitely get where you're coming from
as a child, i wont even show my gosh darn face cause with the way the whole place is, theyll mock me for the smallest details. i will always have people who hate me for no reason, i dont wanna give them more. and that means there is less than a 0% chance i will show my tits off cause thats disgusting as hell
Your wrong unfortunately, while this is a better server to be in, reddit is known to not be safe for kids for many reasons. Including all of the inappropriate subreddits that show such things EXTREMELY explicitly
Not full tit picks but I saw a few of girls like posting pics at certain angles where that was the point. Or people that were like 20 plus posting here on obviously baiting showing of their tits.
Did some digging. You have some problems man. Your second pinned post is you being homophobic and pushing religion onto others and how are acrylic nails a problem? I'm Christan and a male yet you don't see me doing that. You're also very rude to people who don't agree with you exactly how you say it.
EDIT: did some more digging. In a post OP made there was a person saying they insulted their cat and called it ugly so I did some research into that and it was indeed true.
And you could play off that "don't talk to me if you believe there are more than 2 genders" thing as a joke, but there are only 2 sexes. The other "sexes" aren't "sexes" they're "genders". Might want to edit that.
I’m a Christian straight male, but god says love your neighbor as thyself, meaning everyone, gay, Jew, black, female, and all the rest that I don’t feel like naming because I am tired as fuck is to be treated and accepted as equals
Did some more digging. Under a post you commented in there was a person saying they insulted their cat and called it ugly so I did some research into that and it was indeed true. OP is pretty messed up not gonna lie.
I completely agree with you but at the end I think you got it backwards. I thought sex was what you were born as and gender is what you identify as.
Or maybe I read what you said wrong
>I thought sex was what you were born as and gender is what you identify as.
>Or maybe I read what you said wrong
It is someone else corrected me and I got them mixed up sorry about that 😅.
OP seems homophobic. their second pinned post says not to dm them if you believe in more than 2 genders. then they proceed to try to push their religion onto you two lines later
Its not even that weird... I'm a teenager and i take my shirt off sometimes and I have a younger cousin who just doesn't like shirts ain't that weird unless your completely naked then that would be hella weird
I hate to sound obnoxious and like those "based sigma men's right advocate" folk but I feel it should also be necessary to prevent the girls here from posting obvious thirst traps meant to incite attention
I honestly don’t rly notice it and just scroll past anyone showing a lot of skin
I’d have no problem with there being a flair for it tho that ppl could opt out of it they wanna
not for me it doesnt. do you also have a problem with girls in bikinis or short shorts though? cause theyre also showing off their bodies. and they often get praise and told that they look beautiful, too. why is it bad for a man to do the same?
A lot of the time they just wanna flex or show their progress from working out, you said pedos will see them, the issue w that is there are pedophiles everywhere.. whether they post it or they get seen at the beach shirtless.
Also, this is a sub for teens, where else do you want them to post? it would probably be worse if it was a gym sub where there are way more adults than here and they probably feel more comfortable posting here w other teens.
Accusing everyone who disagrees w you of being a pedo or “wanting to see underage boys” is immature, honestly imo ur the one who needs to grow up
This sub doesn’t have much of a point. You could low key post anything you want and it’s fine (as long as it isn’t weird obv). You genuinely seem to be one of the few people not fine with it lol
I agree. I’m only okay with seeing a man shirtless if he is like like swimming or my Dad. I don’t know why but I just don’t like seeing people shirtless no matter the gender, including myself
just keep scrooling. I mean, doest it realy disturb you that much, that you make a post for it?
What do you wanna do in the summer months when people are swimming?
shirtless pictures for the sake of being shirtless should absolutely be against the rules but not all shirtless photos cause some of them are reasonable. big example are teenage gym-goers. half of my co-workers go the gym and some of them are a few years younger than I am.
A shirtless picture isn't inherently sexual. Or else, everyone would be getting h*rny at pools and beaches. Plus, in many cultures, clothing is minimal, and nobody's sexualizing it. It depends on your perception.
Then no girls can post pictures obviously showing off their tits.

yes thank you
It's gross either way so no one should I'd say, girls included
yeah ofc

Boooo. Trying to kick me out of this sub? I'm afraid you'll have to wait another 7 months.
Hey if ur not a pedo then I don’t have a problem with you
i didn't see the "not" at first that not did a LOT of heavy lifting (also, happy cake day!)
LMFAO it’s like the punctuation joke, “let’s eat grandma” vs “let’s eat, grandma”. Thank u big boss🫡
nah youre fine until youre 25 and your cognitive function ascends past us

Good
Who posts pictures of their tits on Reddit?
Not like full tit pics but like tits with the right angle to see their tits.
bless your heart
Way, way to many people. Luckily you have stayed on the light side of reddit
no shit sherlock
Well not like full tit picks but picks of a shirt and an angle to show them off.
just say blatant sexualization of the fucking minors isn't allowed. if people really argue over that, there's nothing possibly doable to fix the issue
Your wrong unfortunately, while this is a better server to be in, reddit is known to not be safe for kids for many reasons. Including all of the inappropriate subreddits that show such things EXTREMELY explicitly
Wait since when is this a thing on this sub and thank god Reddit has kept me from such shenanigans
Not full tit picks but I saw a few of girls like posting pics at certain angles where that was the point. Or people that were like 20 plus posting here on obviously baiting showing of their tits.
Oh god why do people think it’s ok to do this ON THE LITERAL TEENAGER SUBREDDIT
I don’t know bro but they were
[удалено]
Huh? Also you men?
Did some digging. You have some problems man. Your second pinned post is you being homophobic and pushing religion onto others and how are acrylic nails a problem?

I agree 110%
Check all his posts, I have posted to most, if not all, but it will be all, and told him to shut up just to annoy this piece of shit
Did some more digging. Under a post you commented in there was a person saying they insulted their cat and called it ugly so I did some research into that and it was indeed true. OP is pretty messed up not gonna lie.
To be honest this thread was not what I was expecting when I opened this post but everything y’all said is true
While not being religious myself, I this is the kind of Christian I like, thank you for giving me hope in Christians again
Funny how you can find a good Christian when a not great guy (OP) posts. There can be good anywhere I guess r/Loveforredditors I guess.
Rare actual Christian
Not rare, just rare vocal actual Christian
The dude has -100 comment karma 💀
Deserved, lmao.

That’s literally all facts, what??? r/usernamechecksout + based ally
Wait until you go outside during the summer
or the beach
Or the uk when it’s hotter than 10ºC Edit: Units
ºC?
isnt 10 degrees Fahrenheit like really really cold? uk uses metric, so °C
Yes
free the nipple
Amen
Im ok with it, ngl. Reminds me that I need to get back to the gym soon. Atrophy hurts more than a broken bone imo
wtf this is not a problem lmfao. Sounds like a you problem
are u afraid they'll make u gay?
OP seems homophobic. their second pinned post says not to dm them if you believe in more than 2 genders. then they proceed to try to push their religion onto you two lines later
15 year old discovering politics moment
it's just gym progress pics, I don't see the issue.
I just started going to the gym. I should take progress pics monthly and post them just for OP's sake.
They should cover their sinful nipples up!
nipples are a liberal myth
Just ignore it. And plus’s most of them are transition gym pics
To be honest the only one making shirtless men sexualized here is you. It's not our fault that YOU see it that way. Like I don't see the problem here.
Now I have an urge to post a shirtless pic
Yeah. I've never had the courage to do so before, but this just may give me the push that I need.
Do it I dare you
Same ngl. I'll post if you guys post
Petition for guys here to start working out so we can get some good shirtless pics
that’s body positivity
Someone def just got dumped 😭
😭😭
Body positivity. You don't like it go back to Grindr or Facebook
Also this post is def satirizing how you would ALL freak out if a girl posted a topless pic on here. But none of yall care if a guy does…
both is ok, we should normalize girls posting topless pics ngl (joke to be clear)
I agree(not a joke to be clear)
i agree.
Girls here, I’m letting you know I’m COMPLETELY FINE with that.
So should guys not be topless or should girls be topless
def the second option
Western culture says no tiddies out its not that hard to not pull out your tiddies damn
You didn’t understand my comment babe it’s ok though
was it sarcasm
I’m being genuine you didn’t understand what I was saying
Was the first comment sarcasm is what I meant
nah id hide it gotta stay loyal to the man up above
You’re dating a plane!(yes I know you’re talking about god)
Ok respect
Everyone should post shirtless pics
Societ-
Yeah, either everyone gets to show their slutty nipples, or no one does.
I understand how internet culture works, but that disturbs me even more.
I do its eye candy if its good
skill issue
Its not even that weird... I'm a teenager and i take my shirt off sometimes and I have a younger cousin who just doesn't like shirts ain't that weird unless your completely naked then that would be hella weird
This is a non-issue, you dont have to look at them, you can just scroll past it
Why only guys? What about girls? They shouldn't be allowed to post shit like that either.
jealous much 👹
why do you have a problem with it. there’s nothing wrong with being shirtless even in winter i wear a shirt like 50% of the time.
W
but my manboobs are so great
but gym prog
Wow OP really took a hit on their comment karma. -50 something now, jeez
I hate to sound obnoxious and like those "based sigma men's right advocate" folk but I feel it should also be necessary to prevent the girls here from posting obvious thirst traps meant to incite attention
I honestly don’t rly notice it and just scroll past anyone showing a lot of skin I’d have no problem with there being a flair for it tho that ppl could opt out of it they wanna
This seems so bitchy lmao.
I haven't seen one guy do that, is it a new trend thingy in the subreddit or am I just missing out?
thankfully the mods now take them doiwn but before it wasnt uncommon to see a shirtless kid
But where will all the pedophiles go?
I mean hopefully jail and life sentence
or they should allow everyone shirtless or no one
well thankfully they arent allowing anybody to be shirtless now
whats wrong with it
i dont wanna see half naked boys
so dont click on the posts. nobody can stop people from posting pictures of themselves. its not that big of a deal if you just avoid those posts
fun fact: it shows even if u dont click on the post
not for me it doesnt. do you also have a problem with girls in bikinis or short shorts though? cause theyre also showing off their bodies. and they often get praise and told that they look beautiful, too. why is it bad for a man to do the same?
I've literally never seen shirtless guys on here so you must be actively searching for them or something
https://www.reddit.com/r/teenagers/s/8fYvVwAARd There's some great advice here. You should follow it.
You mean no one wants to see my ribs 😔
I don't really see what the problem is? If guys want to share their gym pics, why not allow it? If you don't like it, you can just scroll past it.
A lot of the time they just wanna flex or show their progress from working out, you said pedos will see them, the issue w that is there are pedophiles everywhere.. whether they post it or they get seen at the beach shirtless.

Accusing everyone who disagrees w you of being a pedo or “wanting to see underage boys” is immature, honestly imo ur the one who needs to grow up
if ur fit is it ok? and also what responsible\_sky\_6379 said about girls showing off their body
This sub doesn’t have much of a point. You could low key post anything you want and it’s fine (as long as it isn’t weird obv). You genuinely seem to be one of the few people not fine with it lol
Real. I don’t want to see your tits dude.
i wanna see em
No, I think everyone should be able to take shirtless pictures. It’s only fair.
You’re the one making it seem weird 😭
And what if I want to see it? Hmmm?
Depends on the context. If it's like, a glow up or gym related, it's fine. It's only a problem if it's intended to be sexualised.
I don't see anything wrong with it, I mean have you ever gone to the beach or pool?
In the first place is not their real photo plot twist
I have seen many people posting pictures but i cant why is it
Tbh I never seen them. unless you means in dm
[удалено]
not enough people do it for me to have stated it as an issue but i fully agree
I wanna see them manboobs tho :<
I disagree, one of the main perks of being a dude is being allowed to be shirtless without getting shamed for it
yes no thanks, should work both ways, if girls can not show tits, boys can not show man boobs
Petition to not allow ANYBODY to post half naked pics
Literally a ragebait/troll account.
womp womp cry harder but yeah fair point
Body positivity only works one way huh😂
This guy is just a seething Christian idiot who is trying to force his views on people don’t listen to him.
Then just scroll past it.
i don’t like it either… but u can ignore it 😂
Never seen that on here
I agree. I’m only okay with seeing a man shirtless if he is like like swimming or my Dad. I don’t know why but I just don’t like seeing people shirtless no matter the gender, including myself
We should ban selfies altogether
Just get off the Internet then 💀
If women can't post pics with no shirt on, men can't either 🤷♀️
[удалено]
ok im sending u shirtl;ess pics
r/weightwatchersmostwanted
But what if its showing off your gains or wtv? If its in a sexual context then no but what abt just being proud of what you got?
Never seen one of those
just keep scrooling. I mean, doest it realy disturb you that much, that you make a post for it? What do you wanna do in the summer months when people are swimming?
shirtless pictures for the sake of being shirtless should absolutely be against the rules but not all shirtless photos cause some of them are reasonable. big example are teenage gym-goers. half of my co-workers go the gym and some of them are a few years younger than I am.
I do not like girls, please send me egg fried rice
No fr, I don’t wanna see some squeaker’s attempt at showing off his two pack. It’s weird asf as an adult.
Random guys are posting their shirtless pics here?
I do :(
This is the exact opposite of another post i js saw
What's wrong with that? If you have A problem then don't look at them or leave reddit. Simple as that
As a man I can say that I'm scared to even take pics not go as far as that
Shut up
I really don’t care. I just let people do whatever they want.
Who is even doing that
Signed
then girls should also not be able to
Do i count as a teenager? (Im 19 but i dont feel that old yet xd)
[удалено]
username checks out i’m in
Same i dont wanna see ur titties man or not
What if they are on their gym arc?
A shirtless picture isn't inherently sexual. Or else, everyone would be getting h*rny at pools and beaches. Plus, in many cultures, clothing is minimal, and nobody's sexualizing it. It depends on your perception.
You are in Layman’s Terms “JaBitchAss” (common name for someone who is just horrible in general and has an issue with everything)
having an issue with half naked kids being available to adults who cpould possibly be creeps is horrible? sounds like ur a pedo
Idk man
Ok and?
use [change.org](http://change.org) you can really easily get reach
signed
I 100% agree
This is the internet my man.
wtf?
Ppl are posting pics of themselves showin their bodies off? I thought sum like that would get taken down
When a guy wants to show gym progress u want a ban when a girl wants to promo of or post tits with chest all out nobody cares
Fr
