i love the comics. It was true that almost entire rape in the net begin when a guy asked a naked picture from his chat-friend, which is girl. It's definitely sexual harrasement. But for some reasons, I felt bad if the girls actually SEND her naked pictures just because her need of attention. I mean, hello? are they mental?
