It's perfectly ok to think someone is attractive. It's less ok to take their picture without them knowing, but if you intend to only keep it for yourself, then I guess I can forgive you. If you take that picture and share it where potentially millions of people can see it? That's definitely NOT ok.

If you're at the dermatologist, I assume you have skin problems. How would you feel if he posted a picture of your skin to twitter saying, "Omg this is nasty"? I know not everyone of capable of thinking this way, but at least make an attempt.

Completely inappropriate on so many levels besides illegal.

I don't know if this crosses the line into sexual harassment. Maybe it does. but it's most definitely a tacky-assed thing to do, and I'd say the same thing if the guy was a custodian instead of a doctor.

My firsthought... had a man done this to a woman he met while she was working... the knee jerk reaction: he would be excoriated. That same standard should apply to the woman posting a man’s picture. Yet, the knee jerk reaction from women: woohoo!

The double standards pops up other places and times.

Aside from being a bit jealous, it does seem inappropriate and an invasion of privacy. It's nice that he has a good sense of humor about it but he might start to feel differently if strange women start showing up at his office or home, especially if he's married and with a family.

It is a private life intrusion, and as someone commented before, how about that was done to her?

The dermatologist explained it well..the reason he felt flattered by the admiration and attention was because, as a male, he'd never experienced fear from being stalked, threatened, or sexually harassed by women.
He said that you can't really compare/judge the reactions of the two genders, since their experiences are not the same.

I liked the dermatologist's reaction--not only is he pretty handsome, he's also smart & introspective. & something he said made me think again & vote "other" rather than with the majority--he was really not in much danger of being sexually assaulted, losing his job, having negative gossip spread about him, or anything else as a result of her admittedly inappropriate post.

I think it may violate some type of dr/patient terms, but it might be considered more harmful by which platform she posted in. This said I think the dr has to weigh in.

He thought it was okay and a chance for some sex role awareness. Harassment is in the eye of the receiver.

How would she feel if situation was reversed

Immature at best.

Odd.

Completely inappropriate to post a photograph of someone without his/her consent.
