In this case I don't feel fake images are intimate at all, but I don't disagree with your point.
You might not, but others do. People have rather different thresholds when it comes to what they consider intimate. I recommend to just listen to interviews with victims and it becomes clear that to them the whole thins is very intimate and disturbing.
And I said their feelings are valid and should be respected regardless of how I might feel about them. I'm not sure if you are looking for something more from me here. Despite my personal feelings that nudity shouldn't be a source of shame, the fact is that allowing nudity to be used to hurt folks on the premise that nudity is shameful is something I utterly oppose. Like, I don't think you should be ashamed if someone has a picture of you naked, but the real enemy is the person saying, "haha! I have pictures of you naked!!!" Whether the pictures are AI, or photoshopped, or painted on a canvas, or even real photographs.
I see, it's seems that I misunderstood you. Now that I get your point, I would rather agree.
In your defense, ending my earlier post with "I agree with you completely" is probably incongruous with my actual feelings given the post I was replying to. I have to heavily edit my posts to keep from rambling and sometimes the thread gets lost in my head by the time I actually hit the post button.
