not everybody is American
I'm not sure what you mean by that.
Asking for nudes as being intrinsically sexist and objectifying is something that makes sense only in the American liberal middle-class discourse and mores. Outside, this stuff is a non sequitur.
Uh I'm not American but I still think ASKING women for nudes is pathetic and creepy. Do you actually do that?
Not receiving nudes. Asking for them is the weird part.
Pathetic maybe, but being pathetic is still not wrong. Creepy I wouldn't say so. Creepy implies an indirectness and second motives: here he's being very direct and his motives are clear.
I don't ask for nudes, because I have no particular interest in nudes and I prefer when they are sent spontaneously. But I deliberately post horny memes on main, where I have professional contacts, to fight against cringe culture and sex-negativity.
You might not be American, but you're puritanical enough to fit right in in Salt Lake City. The only thing pathetic is being so sexist as to view sharing nudes as diminishing the woman who shared them somehow, which is the only way in which you could see it as demeaning to ask for nudes.
