- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

I think home photography was still pretty new 30-40 years ago, might be why some families were weirdly oversharing with baby photos? Idk.
I think it's more that adults sexualizing children wasn't considered a frequent risk, people didn't think anyone they knew would look at babies that way. Gen X parents really shifted a lot in terms of culture in the US, under their generation child sexual abuse cases have dropped significantly, and that's adjusting to unreported numbers.
If this is true, that's really impressive. I've heard how insanely widespread all kinds of abuse used to be through history, often even openly. But if the culture shift was really as sharp as this seems to suggest, I'd be worried it could go almost just as fast back in the other direction.
I can't say world wide, but in the U.S., home photography was not new 30-40 years ago. I was a kid 30 year ago and I had real camera and various disposable ones over time. Maybe home videography was becoming more common 30-40 years ago, but photography had been around.
Yeah, home photography wasn't new in the 90s, it'd been worked on for a bit.
Would you say home photography was widespread in the 40s? 50s? 60s? 70s?
Also back then you didn't have photo previews plus limited number of photos
