Reply to comment by Squigglepig52 in TIFU by drinking at a party and ended up with very bad pictures of me taken by Celectionn

Really? Blackmail is legal?

I don't know, because I'm Canadian, and have a different legal code.

My point was, don't make the usual "American" mistake of assuming foriegn nations have the same laws as the US or Canada.

For one, American law is based on Common Law, French is based on Civil Law.

No sweat dude. It’s just world trying to flex as if they are morally superior. Yeah. You can go to the law but if you fix yourself you turn out better for it and the idiots don’t get ahead. Crying to a court just gives the impression of weakness for things like this.

I guess it depends on how you look at it.

If a woman gets drunk and guys take advantage and post pictures or she gets raped. Should she just make herself better?

If you don't reasonably expect people to not take advantage of you, when you become incapacitated, especially if the advantage is taken when you are in a shower, where you should expect privacy, then so be it. But I would expect people to be better, and I would expect the law to back me when a crime has been committed.

If someone put a hand on you then this is a different problem. People aren’t better anywhere. I as a male drunk at a party with “friends” wouldn’t take this straight to the law.
