Stop Dicking Around! Let's end the era of the unsolicited 🍆 dick pic
About the project
Not all dick pics are created equally. Some are sent with consent and truly have fun, hotness, or tease written all over them. They add to a sex positive society in which pleasure may exist as opposed to a culture of shame we get bombarded with every day.
However, a huge number of these dick pics, specifically the non-consensual picture of people’s 🍆 that are sent a daily basis without the permission of the receiver – can mentally be more harmful than the sender might imagine. They result in the internet being an unsafe space for many. They can arouse disgust, be triggering due to past trauma, or, you know, simply be not something someone is waiting for while having breakfast, watching TV, or about to going to bed.
Goal
Let’s work together on converting our social platforms into an inclusive safe-space for everyone. In the end everybody benefits from this. Because if you personally have never received one, chances are, your daughters, friends, nieces, children, grandchildren, lovers, neighbours, or one or more of your favorite co-workers did. And if they are less likely to be bombarded with unwanted phallic imagery at any moment in the day, you get to spend your time around happier people. ✨️
Approach
Stop Dicking Around aims to grow awareness about the impact an unsolicited dick pic can have on the receiver. Not by merely blaming the sender, but offering and improving education.
Additionally, Stop Dicking Around aims to inspire (or publicly force!) the technology platforms that lower the bar for this behaviour to start offering real protection to its users. Not in the form of even more censorship, but by means of *opt-in* where the user – not the platform, it’s shareholders, or its business partners – decides if they want to enable those protective measures.
How you can help
There's different ways you could help us get this non-profit project off the ground. For instance by becoming an active collaborator, ambassador or beta tester. We're also looking for volunteering developers with experience in machine learning, people that can help us with copy writing and PR, and people who can introduce us to organisations that are operating in the same field, as well as ones who could help us with funding.
But also - If you were on the receiving end of a non-consensual dick pic, please share a screenshot with us at dickpics@thesocialcode.com. Make sure the 🍆 screenshot also shows the username of the person who sent it to you (this will be stored securely and will not be made public) as well as the interface of the app or website you received it in.
Thank you for helping us! 💪
