I posted my photo on tumblr.. nothing unusual you know? most people post their photos and seem alright.. until 2 porn blogs reblogged it. and it was only a headshot

i have my photo as my profile pic on fb because im trying to be more confident with the way i look but I had some random dude message me

Am I overreacting? I see a lot of people using their real photos on FB and seem to not have problems, same with posting their photos on tumblr.

What is your advice/experiences/ect?

Well, as a Scorpionic person, I'm intensely private...I've only had my face up on social media one time, and it was FB. I just recently closed it out. I hate having my pics on social media because anyone can do anything with them. I'm sorry to hear that someone reposted your photo on a porn blog. That's my greatest fear.

They liked it, but they didn't reblog it.

well for one I clicked on the two blogs and they had porn content, meaning some weirdo visiting there could see their likes and.. u know

I've never used Tumblr but most social networking sites have settings so you can make your photos and content friends only.

Well if they just liked it, then you're fine. What tags did you put under your picture? If you don't want any porn/porn related blogs to find your picture then try not to tag them in areas where porn pics can commonly be found. Usually tags like 'selfie' or a long random unique tag (i.e. 'sdjkbsdicba') won't be found by a porn blog. Sadly, I notice that in certain tags regarding women you'll find porn ALOT (i.e. "black girls" "black women" "asian women" "asian girls" "models" etc.) which is a pain. But anyways... (I'm starting to ramble)

I have a tumblr and I post my picture on a separate page in my edit theme settings, that way people can see my face but no one can reblog them (although sometimes I post pictures that can be reblogged).

Ultimately though to answer your question, I'd say it's up to you and the content that you post. If it's not anything that you wouldn't want others to find, then I wouldn't post it. But regular pictures should be fine.

Ahh, that might be it lol.

If they ever reblog it and it bothers you, just send them an ask and I'm sure the person will take it off their page (hopefully, if not then report them).

Online is scary. I have gotten death threats, so I try to be careful for my loved ones.
