Shortly after the intimate footage of the mother-of-two performing oral sex hit the Internet, Chyna’s lawyer Lisa Bloom called the sex tape “revenge porn” on social media.

Revenge porn -- posting explicit images without the consent of everyone in those images -- is a crime, a civil wrong, and a form of domestic abuse.
It's also a way to try to slut shame women for being sexual.
Girls have killed themselves over revenge porn.
It's not a joke.

According to TMZ, the man in the video who"pissed as she is about the leak and plans to go to cops, and wants the leaker found and prosecuted."

The former stripper turn reality star's defense team didn't stop there as her co-counselor, Walter Mosley followed Bloom's lead as he posted a speech on his Instagram publicly urging men to do better.

 

We have to change this culture of abuse and assault against women. Today’s post saddens me deeply as it is an attack not only against my client but my friend. Why do we think it’s acceptable to sell, or publish, or seek revenge, or blackmail women in this way and without their consent? It’s not. Men ... we have to do better. I’m tired of telling my clients to not make videos because the men will put them out later. It’s like I’m telling them not to wear short skirts because you’re going to entice a man to rape you. #smh And like most rapes, these betrayals often come from those most close to us. So today I’m saying, men we need to do better. We need to tell each other to do better. We need to stop sharing these videos with each other in the club, at the barbershop or (and especially) online. It is a morally corrupt action, which is (at least in California) criminal. Maybe it is time to set an example. #blacchyna

Sadly, during Chyna and Rob Kardashian's break up, the reality star took to social media as well to post explicit images and videos of the mother of his child, Dream Kardashian. The heated battle among the former lovers led to a legal situation with the entire Kardashian family. 

Though Chyna's team is still investigating the source who released the footage, this sex tape is a clear example abuse of power for all women. No woman should ever have to worry about her intimate moments being publicly ridiculed regardless.
