I called this an unpopular opinion before, but maybe it's just an uncomfortable one

This isn't going away. It's in the wild, there's no putting it back in the bottle. Maybe, let's take this chance to stop devaluing women because their nudes exist. Men can post nudes with zero consequences - what's the logic here? IDGAF if they're a teacher with an only fans, if everyone can be rendered nude, no one can be.

Let's live in a post nudes world. Next time a woman is about to get fired over nudes, let's say "it's probably ai generated, you're disgusting for suggesting such a thing". Let them do it behind closed doors, or we shame them relentlessly. Anyone sharing nudes without consent should be the target here, who cares if they're generated, shared with trusted partners, or shared publicly for their own reasons.

The person bringing them into an inappropriate setting are the ones doing something wrong. No one should be shamed or feel fear because their nudes are being passed around - they should only feel disgust.

I'm not really sure if that'd be the case if I did that

Counterpoint, a congressman released a sex tape of himself with a prostitute.

I've never heard of a man getting fired because someone stumbled across his nudes - not saying it's never happened, but it doesn't happen much. I've heard of plenty of female teachers getting fired for it, but also female office workers.

It seems like there's this idea that being able to see a woman nude somehow discredits her and undermines her authority. The same idea doesn't exist for men

And I'm pretty confident that you could post nudes online, and even if someone found them, it wouldn't end up with you ending up in HR or having to justify yourself... Maybe you could have personal complications because of it, but probably not social ones

I think it's at least hyperbole. The consequences aren't the same, aren't even equivalent, but there are still negative consequences.
