The rise of uninvited sexual images has unfortunately become a fact of life for many young women on social media. A recent YouGov study showed that almost 5 in 10 women (46%) of millennials have received an unsolicited D pic, and they are more likely to have received one the younger they are.

And while we are aware this is not acceptable and essentially humiliating, if you’ve found yourself in this disturbing situation, the words do run dry. But one woman who goes by the Twitter handle @FruityNesa has just come up with probably the most genius way to fight back against internet creeps.

After receiving such an unsolicited pic from a dude who thought it was a good idea, @FruityNesa replied with a staged automated message that made the freak cry for “help.” She then posted the screenshots on Twitter with the caption “I don’t typically post dms but I was really proud of this one,” which blew up immediately with 751.6K likes and 110.5K retweets and comments.

    This woman’s viral response to an unsolicited picture has been hailed as genius on social media

    Bored Panda reached out to Nesa, the woman behind the viral message fighting back against the internet creep, who preferred to stay anonymous. She told us that over the lifetime of her account, “I received a few unsolicited pictures.”

    Nesa came up with the idea to write an automated message in the spur of the moment. “Most unsolicited-pic-senders never listen to what you say.” As soon as she saw his first message, she said she knew the dude was going to send the pic no matter what.

    “I had to be sure that he had the cognitive ability to understand my refusal to see his picture. So, I figured I’d write something that would get a clear and deliberate response from him.”

    Someone tweaked the staged automated message to make it seem even more realistic

    Nesa believes that the best way to address and mitigate harassment is to approach it as a collective unit. “Responding to hateful replies under posts may be tiring, but if everyone works together, it becomes less taxing.”

    ADVERTISEMENT

    However, Nesa initially received a few misogynistic responses to her post. But before she could get her own words in, others came to her defense. “What’s better is, as the defensive replies from people increased, it triggered the algorithm to boost the harassing comment to the top.”

    Other men then saw it and said: “’Whoa. I had no idea this was actually a thing; this is gross. How can I help?’ and that’s when the dominos begin falling in your favor,” she explained.

    The author also said that every little detail counts in making the message believable

    Nesa truly believes it’s important to expose these people because “there may be more players involved than just you.”

    It turns out, after her post went viral, she received a DM from a concerned person who thought this could have been her boyfriend.

    “We worked together to gather more information. When they confronted him, he confessed.”Nesa concluded that “If I had ignored his messages, he would have just harassed other women and the dominos would have kept toppling.”

    Many people joined the thread to share their views on the matter

    Many women around the world often face the task of protecting themselves from unwanted attention online and this unfair burden is getting worse as new ways of communication evolve. There has been a recent surge in “cyberflashing” cases, which refers to men sending sexually explicit images via the wireless AirDrop system to devices that carry female names.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    In order to protect themselves from AirDrop harassment, some women reported that they renamed their phones to male names, like “John’s work iPhone.”

    Laura Thompson, who investigates online abuse and harassment, believes that “these things have always been a problem, there has always been sexism, and men who abuse power and abuse women, and this is just another way to do it.”

    Unfortunately, there are no universal sexting laws across the US, and state laws are either not very well defined or vary widely.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    While the Harmful Digital Communications Act (HDCA) “makes it illegal to post a digital communication with the intention of causing serious emotional distress to someone else,” it counts only if you’re sending multiple sexually explicit images to a person who hasn’t agreed to it, or if the receiver is a minor. When sexting involves minors, it violates both state and federal child pornography laws.

    Twitter should have this for real. And then actually report it to police. These guys don't actually think women like being sent these pics. They know it's harassement and that's why they do it.

    Let's be honest and clear about this kind of s**t: unsolicited d**k pics are sexual harassment. It is the online equivalent of indecent exposure (aka flashing), and should be outlawed just the same as indecent exposure. It's not cute. It's not funny. It's not okay. It should not be f*****g "normal" or expected to happen and the response should be an aggressive "STOP SENDING UNSOLICITED D**K PICS" and not "block and move on lol" because the latter does NOTHING. We shouldn't have to "block and move on lol" because creeps like this shouldn't be sending them in the first place. And while I am aware it's not just men sending unsolicited images like this to women, and the inverse can be just as true, you hear way more about guys doing this to women than vice versa. But either way, unsolicited nudes being sent to random strangers needs to stop and die off.

    Never having sent (or received) a d**k pick I am wondering - how does a conversation escalate to that point? Isn't there a lead-up during which there is plenty of time to block the user? Or are these d**k-pick senders long time acquaintances? Is the pic sent as a second message after "hello how are you"? How does this work? Where do you find these people who end up sending their d**k pics?

    If a guy exposes his penis in public he can be arrested, charged, and likely labeled a sex offender. Doing this on the internet is literally the same thing. Why can’t we start labeling them sex offenders too?

    Right now three top-most comments by Martha Meyer, Electric Ed, and Malakai have 12, 5, and 4 upvotes, respectively, but they are hidden an no one can answer. Does this have anything to do with that new feature were you get warned that a similar sounding comment previously has been downvoted? There are so many problems with that feature and in case my assumption is correct these upvotes prove that its implementation is problematic. (Of course I also got asked whether I want to post this. Bored Panda stopped to be funny.)

    @Electric Ed - men who send d**k pics frequently don't bother to have a conversation first. They usually start with "hi", and then if the recipient answers, MAYBE the d**k senders use some stupid introduction before they spread their junk around. Like the guy in this post asked if the woman wanted to see his "tiny penis" and then ignored her telling him no. The thing is, unsolicited/unwelcome d**k pics are just as much about the power of violating another person's autonomy as any other form of sexual assault. It's really not different from groping someone on the train or jerking off in public.

    Well now they'll all know this trick. Somebody needs to make an algorithm that recognizes these pics and flags them. Or, once the source is recognized, change all of their profile pics to their di*k pics. Imagine applying for a job and your Indeed profile pic is a d*ck.

    Or if one user literally writes the words 'don't send a d*ick pic', or something to that effect, then another user has sent a picture immediately before or after that comment... it should automatically get flagged for review. Or, hell, the victim could write 'REPORT @(user)', and that would flag it. If one user is found to have sent an unsolicited picture, they should be reported, possibly fined, have a suspension or a ban. End of story. This c**p has to stop. Naturally, companies don't want to be bothered since this is a problem that mostly effects women.

    @chi-wei it's happening because the filter apparently has been ramped up in strictness. I can't even type innocuous words like gla*sses without the warning. Any words containing a*ss (like gla*sses, hara*ssment, embarra*ss, etc) or other "swears" that are just part of the spelling are being automatically censored. It's ridiculous

    This will only work for a few days and than all those creeps will know about it. Perhaps social media should have a "report" button which will automatically send all the relevant info plus the d**k-pic to some authority. I mean, they can sell all your private data to various "partners" so they surely can send "privates" to the police.

    I never understand the concept of d**k pics. Male genitalia is not attractive, even the best looking guys I've met have a penis which looks like a sad slug. Honestly do men believe girls want to look at the ugliest part of their body, not trying to insult anyone out there but I do wonder who thought explicit pictures of their dangly bits might actually attract anyone.

    @Dean Doe Genuine question- is this from your personal experience? A lot of women aren't into that, possibly due to them not having a g-spot in that place. Personally I'm led to believe that you've never been within 20 feet of a woman or are some sort of troll with nothing better to do, but to cover all bases, I'm aware that you might just be a very sheltered gay man.

    PotatoNinja - I think Doo Dean is the new user name for a previous user who enjoys posting about lesbians. A lot. I think the comments are either a cry for help, or a strange desire to insult lesbians to random people on the internet. Either way, I always upvote their posts, as they seem to need the validation (or invalidation.)

    Some men don't know what NO means or how to not be disgusting sexual predators in general. You say "I’m married" they say "oh what you can't have any friends?" "He doesn't have to know". You say "Sorry I only date women" they say "you sure? I can change that" "you just haven't met the right man yet". You say "I’m not interested in explicit pics" they *send it anyway* It's just never ending.

    We shouldn't need to do that. We should be able to immediately click on an option that reports the image and the user to the platform and the police if appropriate simultaneously along with the recent conversation to make it clear if something was solicited or not. It is harassment of the worst kind. Both parties will then be sent a notification of the report. Then action has to be taken by the platform.

    I have never for the life of me understood why some men do this. What is the point of sending an unwanted d**k pic? Do they really think the woman (or man) on the other end is just going to be like "oh baby yes! Come here!"? Its especially annoying after a woman has already said no and that they weren't interested. If she already wasn't interested before, what makes you think she'll be interested in unwanted sexual harassment? I have never in my life heard of a woman sending random vagina pics to men (or other women).

    Sending a picture of your genitals whether you are male or female is just plain stupid. Especially if the person didn't ask you to send it. I don't understand these people who think that it is appropriate to send photos of themselves like that. Once you send a photo like that, it's out there forever and if the person is vindictive enough they might post it somewhere. Think before you expose yourself like that.

    There's some deeper humor here that nobody has mentioned... There is no 42 USC §1283, but if there were, It would fittingly be in Title 42 (Public Health and Welfare), Chapter 7 (Social Security), Sub-chapter 10 (Grants to States for Aid to Blind). It's both a vaguely legal-sounding threat and a burn.

    Unsolicited pics are never ok and should be punishable. Some men just don't know how to take no for an answer. You can literally tell a man you're lesbian and their first reaction is to not believe you. Like bro there are only 2 scenarios that can play out here, neither in your favor either 1. I really am a lesbian or 2. I am so uninterested in you I lied about my sexuality for you to leave me alone.

    I don't agree with the above answer as to why some people do that. Sometimes it's a display of masculinity, but sometimes its a form of self-abasement, self-shaming. Other times (like a commenter here noted) it's the same as indecent exposure. In any case, whatever the motive, it's sick and disgusting.

    I am so tired of the phrase "Toxic Masculinity". Neither masculine nor feminine is "toxic". There are just some jerks out there who act like jerks, not because they are masculine, because they are Jerks. Female jerks aren't called "toxic femininity"... they're called other words that start with B or C. Let's use those words for "toxic masculine" men.

    It's not about jerks in general, it's about the societal belief that to be a "real" man, you have to adhere to certain behaviours and not others. Like boys being told crying will make them less of a man and that the only emotions they are "allowed" to have are negative ones like anger and rage. It makes people who grow up like that constantly feel on edge that they might be perceived as unmanly/feminine/less, which in turn leads to some super unhealthy behaviour towards themselves and others. Like the guy who told his gf she shouldn't let their baby son mouth at a banana because it looks "sexual" and "gay" (saw that on Reddit a while ago for example).

    D***s pics are disgusting, we all agree, I hope. But I also do not like pictures similar to that shown Fruity Nessa. Please look at her: topless (?), one hand on the breast, other hand pulls pants dangling over the crotch - for me it is semi-porn. Not as horrible as naked penis, of course, but for me it is also sexual harassment. Don't you think that we should apply high standards for both genders?

    The profile picture of @FruityNesa has all of her bits covered. She isn't posting unsolicited vag pics. That is the difference. I don't know how seeing a women's torso is sexual harassment. Women's bodies are often used in advertisements that look just like her picture.

    Twitter should have this for real. And then actually report it to police. These guys don't actually think women like being sent these pics. They know it's harassement and that's why they do it.

    Let's be honest and clear about this kind of s**t: unsolicited d**k pics are sexual harassment. It is the online equivalent of indecent exposure (aka flashing), and should be outlawed just the same as indecent exposure. It's not cute. It's not funny. It's not okay. It should not be f*****g "normal" or expected to happen and the response should be an aggressive "STOP SENDING UNSOLICITED D**K PICS" and not "block and move on lol" because the latter does NOTHING. We shouldn't have to "block and move on lol" because creeps like this shouldn't be sending them in the first place. And while I am aware it's not just men sending unsolicited images like this to women, and the inverse can be just as true, you hear way more about guys doing this to women than vice versa. But either way, unsolicited nudes being sent to random strangers needs to stop and die off.

    Never having sent (or received) a d**k pick I am wondering - how does a conversation escalate to that point? Isn't there a lead-up during which there is plenty of time to block the user? Or are these d**k-pick senders long time acquaintances? Is the pic sent as a second message after "hello how are you"? How does this work? Where do you find these people who end up sending their d**k pics?

    Not always. I've had them from co workers and acquaintances but I've had friends get them from dating sites. To be clear, they are never wanted unless asked. Even then it's, eh. It's ugly lol. No matter how pretty, still ugly.

    If a guy exposes his penis in public he can be arrested, charged, and likely labeled a sex offender. Doing this on the internet is literally the same thing. Why can’t we start labeling them sex offenders too?

    Right now three top-most comments by Martha Meyer, Electric Ed, and Malakai have 12, 5, and 4 upvotes, respectively, but they are hidden an no one can answer. Does this have anything to do with that new feature were you get warned that a similar sounding comment previously has been downvoted? There are so many problems with that feature and in case my assumption is correct these upvotes prove that its implementation is problematic. (Of course I also got asked whether I want to post this. Bored Panda stopped to be funny.)

    @Electric Ed - men who send d**k pics frequently don't bother to have a conversation first. They usually start with "hi", and then if the recipient answers, MAYBE the d**k senders use some stupid introduction before they spread their junk around. Like the guy in this post asked if the woman wanted to see his "tiny penis" and then ignored her telling him no. The thing is, unsolicited/unwelcome d**k pics are just as much about the power of violating another person's autonomy as any other form of sexual assault. It's really not different from groping someone on the train or jerking off in public.

    Well now they'll all know this trick. Somebody needs to make an algorithm that recognizes these pics and flags them. Or, once the source is recognized, change all of their profile pics to their di*k pics. Imagine applying for a job and your Indeed profile pic is a d*ck.

    Or if one user literally writes the words 'don't send a d*ick pic', or something to that effect, then another user has sent a picture immediately before or after that comment... it should automatically get flagged for review. Or, hell, the victim could write 'REPORT @(user)', and that would flag it. If one user is found to have sent an unsolicited picture, they should be reported, possibly fined, have a suspension or a ban. End of story. This c**p has to stop. Naturally, companies don't want to be bothered since this is a problem that mostly effects women.

    @chi-wei it's happening because the filter apparently has been ramped up in strictness. I can't even type innocuous words like gla*sses without the warning. Any words containing a*ss (like gla*sses, hara*ssment, embarra*ss, etc) or other "swears" that are just part of the spelling are being automatically censored. It's ridiculous

    This will only work for a few days and than all those creeps will know about it. Perhaps social media should have a "report" button which will automatically send all the relevant info plus the d**k-pic to some authority. I mean, they can sell all your private data to various "partners" so they surely can send "privates" to the police.

    I never understand the concept of d**k pics. Male genitalia is not attractive, even the best looking guys I've met have a penis which looks like a sad slug. Honestly do men believe girls want to look at the ugliest part of their body, not trying to insult anyone out there but I do wonder who thought explicit pictures of their dangly bits might actually attract anyone.

    @Dean Doe Genuine question- is this from your personal experience? A lot of women aren't into that, possibly due to them not having a g-spot in that place. Personally I'm led to believe that you've never been within 20 feet of a woman or are some sort of troll with nothing better to do, but to cover all bases, I'm aware that you might just be a very sheltered gay man.

    PotatoNinja - I think Doo Dean is the new user name for a previous user who enjoys posting about lesbians. A lot. I think the comments are either a cry for help, or a strange desire to insult lesbians to random people on the internet. Either way, I always upvote their posts, as they seem to need the validation (or invalidation.)

    Some men don't know what NO means or how to not be disgusting sexual predators in general. You say "I’m married" they say "oh what you can't have any friends?" "He doesn't have to know". You say "Sorry I only date women" they say "you sure? I can change that" "you just haven't met the right man yet". You say "I’m not interested in explicit pics" they *send it anyway* It's just never ending.

    We shouldn't need to do that. We should be able to immediately click on an option that reports the image and the user to the platform and the police if appropriate simultaneously along with the recent conversation to make it clear if something was solicited or not. It is harassment of the worst kind. Both parties will then be sent a notification of the report. Then action has to be taken by the platform.

    I have never for the life of me understood why some men do this. What is the point of sending an unwanted d**k pic? Do they really think the woman (or man) on the other end is just going to be like "oh baby yes! Come here!"? Its especially annoying after a woman has already said no and that they weren't interested. If she already wasn't interested before, what makes you think she'll be interested in unwanted sexual harassment? I have never in my life heard of a woman sending random vagina pics to men (or other women).

    Just a tip, if you’re sending illicit pics to ANYONE you haven’t met face to face or had a long rapport with, consensual or not, you need help. And if they didn’t consent to it, you’re just a d*ck, no matter how big or small it is.

    Sending a picture of your genitals whether you are male or female is just plain stupid. Especially if the person didn't ask you to send it. I don't understand these people who think that it is appropriate to send photos of themselves like that. Once you send a photo like that, it's out there forever and if the person is vindictive enough they might post it somewhere. Think before you expose yourself like that.

    There's some deeper humor here that nobody has mentioned... There is no 42 USC §1283, but if there were, It would fittingly be in Title 42 (Public Health and Welfare), Chapter 7 (Social Security), Sub-chapter 10 (Grants to States for Aid to Blind). It's both a vaguely legal-sounding threat and a burn.

    Unsolicited pics are never ok and should be punishable. Some men just don't know how to take no for an answer. You can literally tell a man you're lesbian and their first reaction is to not believe you. Like bro there are only 2 scenarios that can play out here, neither in your favor either 1. I really am a lesbian or 2. I am so uninterested in you I lied about my sexuality for you to leave me alone.

    I don't agree with the above answer as to why some people do that. Sometimes it's a display of masculinity, but sometimes its a form of self-abasement, self-shaming. Other times (like a commenter here noted) it's the same as indecent exposure. In any case, whatever the motive, it's sick and disgusting.

    I am so tired of the phrase "Toxic Masculinity". Neither masculine nor feminine is "toxic". There are just some jerks out there who act like jerks, not because they are masculine, because they are Jerks. Female jerks aren't called "toxic femininity"... they're called other words that start with B or C. Let's use those words for "toxic masculine" men.

    It's not about jerks in general, it's about the societal belief that to be a "real" man, you have to adhere to certain behaviours and not others. Like boys being told crying will make them less of a man and that the only emotions they are "allowed" to have are negative ones like anger and rage. It makes people who grow up like that constantly feel on edge that they might be perceived as unmanly/feminine/less, which in turn leads to some super unhealthy behaviour towards themselves and others. Like the guy who told his gf she shouldn't let their baby son mouth at a banana because it looks "sexual" and "gay" (saw that on Reddit a while ago for example).

    D***s pics are disgusting, we all agree, I hope. But I also do not like pictures similar to that shown Fruity Nessa. Please look at her: topless (?), one hand on the breast, other hand pulls pants dangling over the crotch - for me it is semi-porn. Not as horrible as naked penis, of course, but for me it is also sexual harassment. Don't you think that we should apply high standards for both genders?

    The profile picture of @FruityNesa has all of her bits covered. She isn't posting unsolicited vag pics. That is the difference. I don't know how seeing a women's torso is sexual harassment. Women's bodies are often used in advertisements that look just like her picture.
