[Wednesday L.F.]

I like to think I'm the sort of person who doesn't yuck anyone else's yum. But I saw a pic from a wedding set a photographer friend of mine did and was pretty shocked by it. The groom's back was to the camera, his tuxedo pants and boxers clearly pulled down while the bride knelt in front of him in her wedding dress. I admit, I was horrified even though I also thought it was a little funny. I looked around a bit online to see that variations of this shot (always oral on the male, not the other way around) are becoming a trend.

While I parse my own newly-discovered prudishness (I really am aghast that someone would have that in their wedding album. FFS, do it if you want to, but keep it private!!), can I ask everyone's opinion on this trend?

I haven't been keeping up with trends like this, but for me it would be a hard pass. I would be curious to find out if any of these weddings last 30 years or more. What about saving up for wedding night after all of the guests have gone?

Anything goes! I had to do a quick search also, and I'm with you. Seems like we put more and more of our private lives out there, and we have to push further and further to be "special".

Also, I just really don't wanna see your hubs bare ***, or any part of it...lol
If they're having fun with it, I say do it, but I really don't wanna see it, unless I'm looking at porn, and then I suppose that could be a fun scenario.

Maybe for some it is empowering, in the same way many people (women especially it seems) are doing boudoir photo shoots. They feel really great in doing so and then posting all over their social media. I had a friend do this after her second child, and she said it was exhilarating. Maybe these couple's pics give the same sort of feeling?

Hahah ewwww. No thank you. Not to get all gender and women's studies but there are a lot of antiquated gender roles that come out during all the wedding traditions and this kind of feels along those lines. But also I just think it's tacky. Remember when there was that trend where all the bridesmaids would take a picture with their dresses stuffed into their underwear? I think the bj trend is gonna be like that. In a year they'll be like why on earth did I do this.
