Ok, so here's a thing. This is me at 14-years-old - my first professional photo shoot in Chicago. I obviously didn't look like that in "real life," per second photo taken at the same age. But that is NOT the whole point. No girl, woman, boy, man, transgender person, regardless of age or looks or dress or background should be subjected to sexual harassment, assault, rape, or other mistreatment. And no, by law, a 14-year-old can NOT consent. A year later, when I was 15, I didn't know I could say "no" to a photographer, who asked if I would take off my shirt. In pictures I looked MUCH older, but in my still-growing brain and body, I was a very young teenager, and definitely not a piece of "meat." #MeAt14
