How Many Of You Take Nude Photos?

Cosmo reports that in the midst of the hacked naked celebrity photos scandal, many have voiced the — horrible, no good, very bad — opinion that if you don't want your nudes leaked for the world to see, you shouldn't take nudes in the first place. These people are desperately out of touch.

This week, Cosmopolitan.com conducted a survey of 850 readers — 99 percent female, with an average age of 21 — about taking naked pics. Eighty-nine percent have taken nude photos of themselves at some point. And of those readers, only 14 percent regretted taking the pics, and 82 percent would do it again. (Then again, 91 percent of them had never had those nude photos leaked to a wider audience.)

Here's some fun tips from Nicety on taking nudes shots:

1. Don't show your face

2. Don't show any identifying markers (tattoos, piercings, birth marks)

3. Groom before you shoot (clean and oiled up)

4. Don't send your nudes out via text or the web, cause these hoes ain't loyal. Matter of fact its safer not to even take any nudes. *shrugs*
