Show Notes

On one of Australia's biggest reality television shows, the fallout from what has been labelled a 'nude photo scandal' continues, with two young women being publicly pitted against each other, after one shared a naked image of the other.

But why do we continue to frame these issues in a way that implies that a woman should be ashamed of her naked body, instead of focusing on the person who chooses to share these images maliciously?

The Quicky speaks to an expert in social media, and a mother whose daughter was blackmailed with nude photos, to find out how we can stop weaponising images of women and girls.
