Would I mind sneakily taking photos of her hair for my own personal pleasure? Nope. I'd still feel guilty, but if I'm the only person who knows about it then it isn't hurting anyone. Again, I'm not saying it's right, but if literally nobody else knows then nothing will come of it.

Would I mind sneakily taking photos of her hair and then posting them on a public forum that anyone can view (or sending them to anyone whatsoever, since I know I'm gonna get a million "well just send them directly to me!"s)? Absolutely. That's insanely creepy and utterly disrespectful to her privacy. I totally get the appeal of regular people's hair as opposed to porn stars'; it feels much more real. But as much of a fetish I may have, it honestly disgusts me when I see people post photos of random strangers' hair they've seen. I'm in no place to tell them off or tell them to stop. Frankly it doesn't have anything to do with me. It only affects them and potentially the people they post photos of. But this is about me and someone I know IRL. I am not putting myself and her in that kind of situation.

I do weird shit related to my turn-ons. Everyone does. But everyone also has boundaries. This is one of mine, and you're asking me to cross a line I'm not willing to cross.

Let me clarify one thing: This rant is not directed at you so much as it is directed at everyone who participates in what I consider to be a very toxic element of this community. I'm sure there are plenty of other people who would have asked the same question you did if you hadn't asked it first, so I wouldn't take it personally. This is something that's been on my mind a lot and it just so happens that you're the person who gave me a good outlet to express my thoughts/feelings.
