Voyeur’s fantasy, victim’s nightmare

[asdfghjkl]

Diane and Agnes (not their real names) are victims of men with a fetish for taking pictures of women without their knowledge.

One found a man aiming his mobile phone camera at her cleavage on the train and the other found a man trailing her with a small camera in a shopping centre.

In both cases, the men got away.

And many of these pictures and videos end up online.

Lawyers say victims can ask for such pictures to be removed, but it is not always possible to catch the culprits.

the article summary didnt mention how revealing the ladies were wearing but apparently it's something that encourages men to perform those acts. no man will be bothered to take videos or images of women who're totally covered up.

it's warm in Singapore so I guess that makes women more likely to wear more revealing clothings to relieve the heat. and that in turn makes them more likely to be the victim. for more heat to be relieved the less clothes they have to wear and the higher chance of getting shot.

it's either men stop secretly taking videos/images or women stop wearing revealing clothes and bear with the heat well..everyone knows it but who's actually listening?

think about it..what's the cause in the first place? :cool:

Shooting upskirts is against the law, but I believe shooting photos of cleavages is legal.

My take ( and I'm no lawyer) is that, as long as wat you shoot is clearly visible to everyone else, then it should be OK. I believe cleavages fall into that category, since they are meant to be seen by the public. No different from shooting faces or hands.
