PT6A posted:Again, this doesn't cover the situation where the age of consent for sex is under 18. You would have to change the minimum age for child pornography to match the age of consent, or you still get weird situations where it's legal for two people to gently caress, but not legal for them to have nude photos of each other.

PT6A posted:Romeo and Juliet laws are designed to carve exceptions in age of consent laws, so that it's not a crime for someone to have sex with someone close to them in age, even if they wouldn't be able to consent to sex normally. Extending these laws to cover naked pictures would indeed solve that problem.

PT6A posted:Yes, I agree. I'm saying that still leaves the situation where a 25-year-old (or 30-year-old, or 60-year-old) can legally have sex with a 17-year-old, but has committed a very serious crime by possessing a nude photo of that 17-year-old. Yeah, that situation is creepy as gently caress and it's very likely an unhealthy relationship, but if the sex isn't illegal (which it isn't in most of the world) the photo sharing probably shouldn't be either. PT6A posted:I think the way to deal with it is to draw a distinction between self-produced nude photos/videos and the same thing being produced or distributed for any kind of commercial benefit, or being knowingly distributed by someone other than the producer. The law already recognizes the difference between child pornography and nude depictions (even photos) of minors with "artistic merit" so it's not entirely without precedent.
