This Titanic-inspired explanation for not sending nudes is genius
Nudes can be tricky business.
For the most part, intimate photographs are only meant to be seen by the person to which they were sent, and while this might seem like a given, there are still people out there who think it's okay to share these images in the hopes of destroying their ex-partners reputation.
Whether or not you choose to send such photographs is completely up to yourself, and no explanation as to why you won't should ever be needed – but in saying it, one Tinder user's genius reason still gave us a giggle.
Meet Emily.
A 23-year-old singleton whose hilarious Tinder bio has gathered over 2,000 like after it appeared on Twitter last Thursday.

Her bio reads: “On the topic of nude pics: I just want to remind everyone of a little movie called TITANIC.”
“A girl in 1912 has her naked body drawn in a sketchbook by a random dude that no one’s ever heard of, locks the drawing in a safe on a boat, the BOAT SINKS, and her nude pictures STILL ends up on television 84 years later. No one is safe.”
Needless to say, people were pretty impressed with Emily's analogy.
I say, all hail this genius.

Best use of Titanic the movie in an argument I've ever heard.

Speaking to Metro.co.uk, Emily admitted that the bio was inspired by a post she had seen a while ago, although she did say she added to it to make it more 'original'.
When asked whether she was really against sending nude photos, Emily said: “I’m all for loving your body and if you feel comfortable, you should flaunt it.”
“Nude pictures for sexual reasons never made sense to me, there’s not much you can do with a picture that you couldn't do with porn.”
However, while Emily stated that she would not personally feel comfortable sending nude photos, she insists that for those who do, it's all about trust.
“It’s really hard to judge who is a smart person to send a nude picture to,” she says.
“You never know who’s actually seeing it or if they are going to be sent around.”
“My advice would be honestly wait for the real thing, it’s safer as once you press that send button, there’s no taking it back.”
So, whether or not nudes are your thing, trust and respect are key when it comes to sharing anything in a relationship.
