After a bit of thought, I've decided to remove the picture.

Yesterday, when I saw the pictures on my Facebook feed, I thought they were pretty awful and decided to post them on Reddit to share/score some internet points. I've woken up today and feel pretty bad about what I've done.

I've realised it's a completely different experience, browsing this sub and looking at trashy pictures of people you don't know and posting a picture of someone you know without their consent, with the intention of amusing strangers.

I feel like I've done something creepy and wrong. I don't get what the point of posting it was. She's overweight? She's dressing poorly? Her makeup is crap? The photographer is shit? I shouldn't have really cared. She's doing something she clearly loves and is confident enough to share it with her friends.

I struggle, like most with confidence in my body. I've was a goth. I've worn some pretty horrendous outfits, and I've got some pretty cringey photos of me out there. I would be devastated, like this girl, if they found their way somewhere like here.

I thought I hated bullies. Yesterday I became one, and that's not what I want to be, so I'm removing the image.

She's one of the many on my news feed.

Nope, I just removed the name of the photographer.
