Guys.
A foreigner travels to African countries, engages in consensual sex with women, secretly records them, and then publishes the videos online.
The sex was consensual.
The recording and distribution were not.
That is sexual exploitation.
What’s troubling is that instead of focusing on the violation, many are laughing at the women.
Now, before the familiar “why did they go there?” question comes up, let’s separate the issues.
Adults make personal choices every day. Some wise, some risky.
But no such personal decision cancels the right to privacy, and grants one permission to secretly record and expose someone.
We can debate ethics, morality and safety.
But those debates must not erase the principle of consent.
Consent to sex is not consent to filming.
Consent to filming is not consent to publication.
If we blur that line, we normalise exploitation.
