To think this isnt funny

tubecrush where women post pictures of men they like the look of on the tube.

Can you imagine if the roles where reversed and men did this. It definately wouldnt be funny then.

I thought you had copyright in pictures taken of yourself? Certainly taking and publishing pictures of me without my permission would piss me off. YANBU.

That's actually really really creepy. YANBU

For a start, it's not limited to women posting - a good half of the photos are posted by (presumably gay) guys.

I think this is pretty innocent really. It's not like they are upskirt (up trouser??) shots taken by dirty pervs.

chauteauferret - you realise anyone can take photos of you in a public place, with or without your permission? Although actually photographers are on dodgy ground on the tube as it's not a public place and photography is forbidden without a permit.

I do think it's a bit rude to post pics online without persons permission. I wouldn't like it if it was done to me.

But I have just had to look through all 9 pages just to check I don't know any of them. It would be my duty to inform them you see Wink

Chateaufreet - the copyright lies with the photographer.

don't know what happened to my typing there - i meant ferret

a photographer owns their own photos and can do with them as they please.

nijinsky · 19/04/2011 12:26

Plenty of places where men do post pictures of women taken in public places. And not just their faces.

Hatesponge · 19/04/2011 12:45

I dont see anything wrong with it. Agree it all seems pretty innocent.

I don't like it. But I can't put my finger on why.

MaundyBra · 19/04/2011 12:51

I'm with Chickens - it feels a bit eew.
