    DECONSTRUCTING THE STATUTORY LANDSCAPE OF ªREVENGE PORNº: AN EVALUATION OF THE ELEMENTS THAT MAKE AN EFFECTIVE NONCONSENSUAL PORNOGRAPHY STATUTE Jonathan S. Sales and Jessica A. Magaldi* INTRODUCTION Changes in social mores and technology have yielded the phenomenon of sext- ing, which includes the capturing and forwarding of intimate images through the Internet.1 Research reveals that nearly ®fty percent of adults in the United States have sent or received intimate digital content. 2 At the same time, the con¯uence of these changes has spawned new violations of privacy and predatory actions when these images are made available on the Internet without the subject's consent.3 The re-distribution or dissemination of these intimate images without the consent of the subject and without a legitimate purpose (such as a law enforcement investigation) is referred to as nonconsensual pornography (ªNCPº). 4 NCP has caused victims to suffer substantial harm.5 In some cases, NCP inci- dents have precipitated a victim's suicide.6 Prior generations might have concluded that a person who allowed such images to be captured and placed in the possession of another person assumed the risk of re-distribution; in essence, a negligence, recklessness, or constructive consent argument. In contrast, in the twenty-®rst cen- tury, capturing or sharing of intimate images is often regarded as an acceptable * Jonathan S.

Viewers may base their opinions concerning men's and women's roles on these stereotypes. Those who study television rhetorically also argue that viewers learn attitudes from the medium. Theories concerning women's traditional roles in society, women's financial statuses, and the changing roles of men and women have rarely been addressed on television. Six episodes of the situational comedy Grace Under Fire were dialogically examined, and these research questions were explored: How does Grace's role as a single mother compare with traditional roles? How does the program portray Grace's financial status as a single mother with three children? Does Grace encounter difficulties at work? The author concluded that characters on Grace Under Fire sent mixed messages to viewers.
