I didn't want my mum to ban me from social media so it was easier not to tell anyone.

When my friends and I were around 13 we started receiving unsolicited dick pics randomly from both random people and people we knew. We used to sit around and laugh at this, finding what we had been sent funny. Recently I started reflecting on how weird this was, not only at the age of 13 but in general. It was so normalised within my social group and no one ever made a fuss or thought to report these unwanted images. I didn't want my mum to ban me from social media so it was easier not to tell anyone.
