Hello,
I have a question that I would like to be answered. Yes, I know I am quite early on in my transition, however, my mother has posted stupendous amounts of photos of me as a male (most of which make me look quite ugly and unpleasant) and I don't feel comfortable with them. I am young, and yes, my mother understands but is somewhat unsupporting and believes they serve a memorable value (which is fair enough, but couldn't you keep the memorable photos for yourself somewhere private not for the world to display?) and it hurts. It was taken all against my consent and I really do not want these pictures being left online. I really dislike that when people would add my mother on Facebook, they would see all those glorious "before" photos and make fun of what I looked like.
This may have been asked before, but I think this would serve as a good recent board reminder. Is there any legal advice or anything I can do to have the pictures forcibly removed? I really would not like to force that onto my mother and compromise, but I'm afraid that she probably will not do so willingly. I understand the first few replies will tell me "discuss with her to remove them" but that's quite frankly just not going to happen realistically. Is there a legal option that anyone on this forum knows about or has information on this sort of situation?
