Cultural change is needed to address the issue of "revenge porn". There's a shared sense of horror among my friends and myself when yet another "revenge porn" story surfaces, each often more disturbing than the last. It's an unspoken understanding of how easy it would be to become that girl, woman or person behind in words. "Having education about what the harm of that is can really help someone recognise the severity of that behaviour."
