In the editorial staff here at Illusex, we’ve been discussing whether it’s morally acceptable to post pictures of sleeping women who are exposed with implicit consent.

Let’s dig into that for a bit with some examples.

This girl went to the beach, took her bikini top off, lied on her back and went to sleep.

It is so unexpected that someone will look at her? Of course they will. Maybe that’s the point. Surely she put herself in this situation with full intent and there is no issue with then simply documenting reality.

Let’s take another example.

This girl also went to sleep on the beach and presumably let her tits out of her top – or maybe they fell out. Who knows. The photographer did not MAKE this happen. The girl went to sleep with maybe a bikini top that didn’t fit well and knew that there was a risk this would happen. The photographer documented what happened and nothing else.

One reader sent us this photo of his girlfriend who had gone to sleep after drinking with friends at home. He told that she had worn no bra and a lose blouse as shown and that she either knew that it might slide open during her sleep or she SHOULD have known.

This argument works, we think, here in the editorial staff. Here is another similar example where the readers girlfriend didn’t bother to change out of her bikini after coming home from the beach.

After a 15 hour drive cross country, this reader found his girlfriend in a compromising position on the next seat. She had chosen to get very comfortable and here is the result of her choice.

“We don’t have air condition in our house and it’s really hot outside and inside too. My wife cannot sleep with covers and also sleeps bottomless. Here is what that looks like”

That’s another example of “documenting the reality”

Posting on the internet is not exactly a nice thing to do, but considering it is a matter of documenting reality, is it really morally wrong? Well, she was in her own home, in private, so yes, this one is in a grey area.

But not all similar examples are in grey areas. Let’s take a look at some other cases.

This is an old photo I have from a party long ago where a girl stayed overnight in the living room on the guest bed. When I woke up, I found her like this.

“Now I can respect sleeping in the nude, but whether her covers had been removed by herself or by someone else who was at the party after she fell asleep, that I have no way of knowing.

As the person taking the photo, that’s not really my concern.”

Another reader has a similar story.

“A drunken guest of mine must have attempted to take her clothes off and then fallen asleep right in the middle of it”

The question is of course, is it the readers fault that she got that drunk and ended up half naked on his photo. He took the photo but did not cause the situation – that we know of. So this one is morally sound.

Another reader was asking for our help to assess the situation.

“One of my colleagues had been in an office part with us and fallen asleep. As we were leaving, it was clear that someone had pulled up her blouse and exposed her nipples.

I took a photo but I did not pull up her blouse. So did I do anything wrong?”

This reader poses a good question. Of course, he did not actually create this situation but merely documented what had happened. This might even be useful to her at a later time. Who knows. Just taking a photo is not a problem, but of course exposing your co-worker by pulling her shirt up, that’s not a nice thing to do. But we will probably never know who did this.

Another reader wrote in about a moral dilemma for us.

“As a prank, when my girlfriend fell asleep at a party, drunk, I pulled her shorts down and pulled her shirt up, exposing her naked.

However, it was just a bit of harmless fun with some friends. She was sleeping anyway and what you don’t know, won’t harm you.

Someone else took a photo and I never intended for this photo to be taken. Did I do something wrong?”

Well, as you describe, your actions alone did no harm to her. Only the person who took the photo made it an issue and so you are not responsible for that. It is reasonable what you did and we do live in a society that appreciates practical jokes, so I don’t think you should be ashamed of what you did, but maybe make it clear to your friends some other time that they are not supposed to take pictures.

“I’m a bit relieved to hear that an innocent prank is not automatically regarded as immoral. Because that’s how it started with a little mistake I made. Just an innocent prank. My girlfriend fell asleep, drunk and I pulled her pants down so other guests who might pass by our bedroom would see.

After the party, when I came into our bedroom to sleep, I found that someone had cum on her ass like this”

Good question. Now the question is whether you can assume that a naked ass of a sleeping girl is an automatic invitation to cum on it. If yes, then you caused that invitation and your girlfriend did not, so that would mean you are guilty of the consequence.

However, most reasonable people would say that a naked ass is not an automatic invitation to cum on it, especially if the person is sleeping. So maybe you didn’t think this through, but you are not responsible for the consequences of pulling her pants down. But good question!

“I have similar case. After my girlfriend went to bed, I undressed her and later that evening, one of my friends showed me this photo of him cumming on her face.”

I see the dilemma. You undressed her but what does that mean? How did you friend think this was OK? You did nothing wrong, except maybe you should get some other friends.

Another reader wrote in about something he felt was a similar dilemma.

“Before a party, I drugged my girlfriend so she would be out for the whole night. Then I tied her arms and took the rest of her clothes off. I told all me friends as they arrived that if they got bored in the party, they could go to our bedroom and fuck her. Most of them did. Some of them did it multiple times.

We recorded it and played it on the TV when there were breaks in the sports programme.

Did I go to far with this prank?”

An unusual situation. Most people would say that you went too far with the prank and that this is not acceptable. Of course it depends also on the kind of relationship you have with your girlfriend and what is normal for you.

Did the guests wear condoms or were you reasonably sure that they might not have any diseases? And did you make sure they did not share the videos anywhere else? If so, you could argue that this was maybe a prank that went too far, but how do we ever develop if we don’t test out some borders from time to time. Some would consider you a pioneer.

But yes, it’s the verdict of this panel that you went too far in this case. This was not morally acceptable.

But good that you ask, how else would you learn?
