It is interesting that I saw this thread opened again today as my partner and I actually went to the beach today. He is quite ill and uses home and portable oxygen 24/7. He also uses a mobility scooter and decided to go to the end of the pier by himself to check if people were catching anything. When he returned he said he had taken some photos of some young girls and immediately my reaction was he needed to be careful taking photos of young girls due to him being a male.
It turned out the girls were taking photos of each other with their own camera and asked him to take one of them together. I feel sad that my reaction, before I knew the situation, was to immediately think that his taking a photo could be considered negatively (which it probably would have if it had been his camera) when in reality he was simply doing the girls a favour.
