South Korea's spy cam porn epidemic

[hackmum]

In South Korea, apparently, perverts like to hide spy cams in toilets and changing rooms to secretly film women in a state of undress.

Obviously in this country, when self-ID comes in, they won't need to bother with spy cameras; voyeurs and abusers will just be able to wander in to any place where women are taking their clothes off. Hurrah!

There are websites dedicated to spycams and unprotected cameras.

I know, Upstart - in fact I did wonder whether the only difference between here and South Korea is that people are actually aware of it in South Korea.

I liked the advert - shame it had to be made at all though.

Personally, I think men have always been like this - and technology, camera phones, internet etc has allowed them to act on it more and more.

There's a video on YT with Emma Watson crossing her legs during an interview - it's a few seconds long and has millions of views.

One of my enduring childhood memories is swimming at primary school, and the lengths the boys would go to get a glimpse into the girl's changing rooms.

It's why we need female only spaces - and it's why we're losing female only spaces. We're facing an onslaught of the men's sexual rights movement under the guise of a human rights campaign for a specific group (trans people).

It's all about crossing boundaries. Western men go for PUA tactics and get in your face, it seems South Korean men go for the sneak.
