Malta Blogger Forced To Quit Instagram Due To Daily Dick Pics

Article Featured Image

Malta-based blogger ‘Maltagram‘ announced that she is quitting Instagram after receiving an endless barrage of unsolicited genital snapshots in her inbox.

Rhi, the blogger, took to her website to express sadness and outrage at the men who mistook her confidence as an invitation for online harassment.

“If a woman posts pictures of herself on the Internet it means she thought she looked good at that moment. She wanted to capture it and share her good moment with the world. That’s it.”

“I am sorry that you don’t have the confidence to speak to girls in real life, I know what it’s like to be painfully shy and to lock yourself in your own loneliness. But don’t make your issue my discomfort, be an adult and treat me, and any other woman you find online, with the respect you’d expect from others.”

It’s so sad to think we live in a world where a blogger (or anyone really) cannot post an innocent selfie without attracting creepy advances. Everyone enjoys a compliment or seven, but please give some thought to what you’re about to say before posting. Would you be comfortable with your mother hearing you say that? If the answer is no, perhaps think twice.
