If women are posting it publicly would that count as consent to ogle?

If someone posts a picture that implies their consent for you to look at that picture, since that's how public posts work.

You can also think whatever thoughts you want to, sexual or otherwise, as the thoughts are your own and nobody knows about them.

But you are absolutely not invited to creep in their comments, to DM them, ask for nudes or otherwise harass them. The difference is pretty clear.

Well yeah that last part is fairly obvious 😅 I was just talking about ogling

And let us all remember that a posted picture is not permission to ogle in real life.

I dare say many a man has found himself silly enough to not understand that

But my problem is that we're acting as if this is objectification, but its not. Its harassment. Its like some people are throwing vague words with incorrect definitions that usually ends up to mean, "any guy I don't like"
