Beneath the facade of 'just a group sharing provocative photos of beautiful women,' Elegant Nude harbors darker aspects.
Despite numerous channels of criticism and condemnation directed towards the proliferation of 'adult-themed' content across social media platforms lately, it seems these efforts have barely scratched the surface. From public forums to the most clandestine groups, one can encounter sensitive materials ranging from free to paid subscriptions, advertisements soliciting companionship, or soliciting partners in ways deemed distasteful...
Compared to the past, these 18+ contents and shadowy forms of prostitution are becoming increasingly sophisticated. A prime example is the emergence of the Gentle Nude group on Facebook.
In this realm, beautiful women gather to flaunt their provocative and alluring photos. Despite its recent inception on November 3rd, Gentle Nude has already amassed 108k members. This figure continues to climb by the hour, along with the number of posts flaunting their bodies in a provocative manner.
Elegant Nude - The 18+ group currently making waves.
Beautiful women flaunting their bodies in the 'realm,' receiving countless public comments that amount to sexual harassment.
Unlike previous 18+ content groups that have been exposed, Gentle Nude employs much more subtle tactics. Most members of this group don't actively seek out information about it but rather 'accidentally' come across videos of beautiful women on TikTok with invitations and links to the group. Curiosity piqued, people hesitate not to click and join immediately to 'see more enticing content.'
Previews of Gentle Nude on TikTok.
Only after joining do you realize that the content of this group is truly diverse and rich. It's just nude photos, but there are 5-7 different display styles: some choose beach backgrounds, while others opt for a bed for quickness. As for clothing, some choose delicate lingerie, barely enough fabric; some opt for unbuttoned blazers revealing cleavage; the bold ones go for 100% nudity, covering up with a scant pillow...
Beneath these provocative photos, you can come across thousands of similar comments, derogatory remarks about women's bodies, and even public sexual harassment.
'Draw back the curtain to see it better,' 'Gentlemen, come and rate,' 'Let me give you a massage,' 'Whiter than laundry detergent,' 'Too curvy,' 'Looks delicious'...
You might be wondering, how can you avoid lewd comments when posting such revealing photos? But why not ask yourself: Do I want to be the person leaving such vulgar comments on the internet?
These 18+ photo groups are essentially traps, using suggestive and provocative imagery to stimulate the rebellious side of viewers. In fact, those who haven't achieved true satisfaction in real life tend to seek out such dirty content groups to express their rebellious selves, believing that speaking out on inappropriate matters is an achievement to boast about. In reality, those who engage in commenting below such revealing content are only wasting their valuable time and who knows, one day they might fall into a trap.
What traps? Let's find out more!
Are provocative photos just trailers for illicit business activities behind the scenes?
With a membership reaching hundreds of thousands, from its inception to date, Gentle Nude has only published a mere 45 posts. This figure is considered quite low compared to the daily content output of groups like Gentle No Bra, Handsome Boys, or other sensitive groups. Most notably, the photo captions in this group are quite simple - just a line mentioning the Instagram handle of the beautiful women. No solicitation, no invitations, no recruitment for companionship, or anything else.
The photo captions in the group all follow the same pattern, providing only information leading to the Instagram profiles of the beautiful women.
Many think this is just a ploy to attract followers and engagement from beautiful women. However, all these simple things turn out to be a clever trailer for other illicit content and cultural products for sale. Because even in the bio of these Instagram accounts mentioned, the links lead to paid websites for viewing 18+ content like O.F, A. The main character is none other than the girl in the photo posted in the group. This is truly the 'enticement' that the promotional videos on TikTok aim for.
And the trap that the girls post seductive photos in the group lay out for the 'prey' is: THE DESIRE TO SEE MORE than just 18+ images, not only stopping at semi-nude photos but also including 100% uncensored nude videos, nude photos, or even other activities that we can imagine.
That simplicity is a whole calculated plan for trafficking in illicit cultural products.
Alongside the girls looking for 'prey' to watch paid sex clips/photos, the 'mastermind' behind all these girls is the truly fearsome one.
None other than the admin of the Gentle Nude group. This person also simultaneously stands behind a series of other sexy groups, with offensive content under the 'Gentle' label - under the name N.K.N.
On his personal page, N admits to being an agency specializing in booking beautiful women from the Gentle group chain and openly provides phone numbers, email for 'work.' This system is so meticulous that the beautiful women are even given an email extension '[email protected]' - as a clear identification mark.
N - the mastermind behind the series of Gentle groups with sensitive content.
To build a solid 'backyard' for the trade of illicit cultural products, N has a dedicated team managing the various similar Gentle groups. N's income doesn't just come from managing bookings for beautiful women but also from PR activities, content approval for those who want to promote themselves, gain followers, engagement, and profit from 18+ links. Most notably, N's network operates openly, blatantly in front of the public eye.
Commitment
Being a girl, who doesn't enjoy posting cute photos and receiving praise from those around them? There's nothing wrong with that if the photos stay within certain limits instead of exposing oneself like in Gentle Nude. Posting sensitive, easily identifiable photos on social media is like a double-edged sword hanging over the heads of these girls, ready to harm them at any time.
Moreover, to date, websites that publish or trade 18+ content are completely illegal in Vietnam. Joining such networks, organizations promoting themselves under the guise of a 'fleshy' group is illegal behavior and deserves condemnation. Therefore, using social media wisely, civilized, and being conscious of preserving one's privacy image is essential to avoid being exploited by malicious individuals and is also a way to protect oneself.
