To You Who Sent Unsolicited Dick Pic to My 13-Year-Old Daughter

What could you possibly hope to achieve?

Yesterday, my 13-year-old daughter got to a dick pic on Snapchat. Or, to be correct, a dick film.

My daughter uses Snapchat to keep in touch with her friends. That should be a safe thing to do. Unfortunately, she accepted a friend request from what she thought was an acquaintance. And the person responds by sending her a film of his genitals.

Just why?

What the hell goes through your head when you send dick pics to random girls on Snapchat?

Do you believe the recipient (in this case, my 13-year-old daughter) will think: “WOW, that was a good-looking penis. I want to get to know this stranger better!” I can assure you she did not.

Are you trying to scare or disgust someone?

Did you know who you sent your pic to, or did you just randomly spew your nudes?

I’m losing faith in people.

My daughter told me about this the moment it happened. We’ve been practicing internet rules since she was little.

We used this opportunity to talk about another life lesson: many men are assholes.

Next time you wonder if a little girl might want to get a dick pic from you: Just don’t do it!

You are hereby reported and blocked.
