To be fairly pi$$ed off at an 'artistic' photo of a boob

I'm really marked over a photo my dh showed me on his phone last night. It was an image of a pert breast and an arm, which my dh called artist. If that was all I'd not be quite as peeved as I am. It's the fact that it's his work colleague (on his team). She showed it to him ages ago apparently, then at a leaving do last night it cropped up again and some how it got sent to his phone. He then tried to forward this to another person at work. I'm not sure what I'm more cross about that he's risking his career (our future), that he's seen this proud enough to show me (though he was a bit drunk) or that this girl saw fit to show him in the first place. Also I'm guessing she must have some sort of crush on him. She's been round a few times and dh thinks of her as friend. Or maybe i'm just jealous as she's not bf 2 kids so has boobs my dh wants to look at

Sorry you've lost me.

no YANBU at all, that is crossing a boundary IMO.

hairytriangle · 23/07/2010 17:01

A woman at work texted your partner a picture of her boob, and he showed you. Well, at least he did show you. But I think it's way dodgy and I think it's dodgy that he tried to text it to someone else.

He's has a photo of a colleagues breasts and he's showing you and other people???? I'd be pissed off.

And it isn't art.

sapphireblue · 23/07/2010 17:07

YANBU. Totally unacceptable. If it was a nameless porn star etc then fair enough (boys will be boys)....but a work colleage? Totally inappropriate. If she knows he's walking round with it on his phone she will see that as encouragement.

Morloth · 23/07/2010 17:09

Gah, why did he forward it on? Does he want to lose his job?

wastingaway · 23/07/2010 17:11

A photographer friend did a lot of shots including nudity. Not necessarily pornographic iyswim.

Seems inappopriate though.

GeekOfTheWeek · 23/07/2010 17:35

Totally inappropriate imo.

I would be livid.

suwoo · 23/07/2010 17:43

My DH's colleague was in a page 3 competition and they all looked often at the photo's. I was a bit that he sits next to her all day, but have got over myself. She also has a photo of her self looking unbelievably gorgeous in a bikini as a screen saver .

The text is perhaps worse, but I wouldn't put it past my DH if he was drunk TBH.

GeekOfTheWeek · 23/07/2010 18:07

at screen saver of oneself in a bikini.

Do you think she really likes herself?

BitOfFun · 23/07/2010 18:11

You wouldn't show them to all and sundry though, would you wasting?

Not, erm, like some people.

wastingaway · 23/07/2010 18:18

Well, I wouldn't.

Is it a) an artistic photo including nudity, b) a picture of her tits.
It's about perception in a way I spose.

She could just be really proud of having done some photographic modelling.

Without seeing the photo it's difficult to judge.

But probably, yeah she's trying it on and he's being a flattered old fool.

aquababe · 23/07/2010 20:15

It's a picture that seems to have been taken on her phone. A close up of just one boob, an arm and a bit if wall. She probably does think it's arty. I just don't think you should show pics like that to your boss. Arty or not. But thought I might be being prudish or over reacting.

Hmmm.... tricky one. See, I can imagine a drunken evening down the pub for someone's leaving do and this girl who clearly fancies herself showing all and sundry this picture, in a 'Aren't I sexy / daring / up for a laugh' manner and then one of the blokes getting her to text it to their phone, then another getting it and another - and so on and so forthe. She's possibly hugely insecure loving the attention.

Probably means nothing. But I'd still get him to delete it asap

aquababe · 23/07/2010 21:15

Apparently she'd showed it to him before this evening it just came up again then

Urgh no I'd have him for that!

porcamiseria · 23/07/2010 22:55

YANBU

silly little trollop

rubbersoul · 23/07/2010 23:22

No, it's totally out of order. What a tart. In my book a picture of boob is not art.
