Post Due 11/9

This is unfortunate for Mrs. Ball but it is the choices that she made that are getting her in the hot water that she finds herself in. It doesn't matter what her age was as soon as she voluntarily signed up for that account and posted the inappropriate picture she knew that she was putting herself in that light for all to see. My opinion on women's public sexuality is to "keep it off the internet". Once its on the internet its going to be there for a very long time.

I feel that there is a double standard on this issue but the extent of the photograph that is being discussed is the real issue. If she was just dressed in revealing clothes its one thing, but to be walking a man around on a collar is in my opinion degrading. The comparison to Hilary Clinton is absurd because the two events aren't similar in any way. Hilary dealt with her husband's infidelty, not her own and Mrs. Ball's actions were.

I feel that if people don't want to have their private lives in the public for all to see, then don't volunteer for a website that allows it. People will see things you put out there. If you absolutely cannot resist being on one of these sites, then keep it as discreet as possible. The facebook era is here and I suggest to be careful and act as if someone is always watching you.
