This Facebook page, called Bikini Jailbait, has sparked outrage within the social networking community for its suggestive images.
A shocking page called ‘Bikini Jailbait’ has been removed from Facebook after it caused outrage among users of the social network.
The site pictured many graphic pictures of seemingly under-aged young women in various states of dress. Some are bending over suggestively.
One person wrote on the page’s wall that the site was ‘wrong on so many levels,’ and begged other like-minded users to report the site.
It is unclear who created the page. A representative for Facebook told MailOnline that the page had been removed although would not comment on individual cases.
The link provided by Bikini Jailbait directs internet users to a hardcore porn page. Those wishing to enter have to prove they are over 18.
The social network says on its community page that it depends on its users to report abusive behavior.
‘If you see something that is inappropriate or makes you uncomfortable,’ the site reads, ‘speak up and let us know. We take reports from our community very seriously, and work hard to respond quickly.
Facebook also allows users to report disturbing content via ‘Social Reporting,’ which allows users to report screen shots of offensive material.
The Internet Watch Foundation, a British organization that works with police, found more than 12,000 instances of girls who had posted seductive pictures of themselves with their photos unwittingly ending up on pornography sites.
Time magazine questioned why these young girls are posting suggestive pictures of themselves in the first place, offering several theories.
One, they wrote, pointed a finger at society, which often pressures young girls to be overt in their sexuality. Another speculates that they are intimidated to take these pictures, either by boyfriends and crushes, or cyber-bullies.
Only weeks ago, Reddit troll Violentacrez was unmasked by Gawker. The user had posed pages entitled ‘Rapebait’ and ‘Creepshots,’ sparking outrage on the internet.
But when he was unmasked, the troll was a 49-year-old grandfather named Michael Brutsch.
He told CNN after he was ousted: ‘I am to some degree apologizing for what I did. I was playing to an audience of college kids.’
