An outraged father of three enjoying a day out with his young sons in a U.K. park was branded a "pervert" by other parkgoers after he snapped photos of his own kids, the Daily Mail reported Tuesday.

"What is the world coming to when anybody seen with a camera is assumed to be doing things that they should not?" Crutchley asked in an interview with the Daily Mail. "This parental paranoia is getting completely out of hand. I was so shocked."

Photography does not equal pornography.

Somewhere there exists a pic of my now 19 year old daughter fully naked except for a Russian fur hat that I got in Germany. She was being kooky and her mother snapped a pic.
Since we are now divorced, maybe I should inform the authorities.

The UK is now the place where they arrest you if you are the victim of a crime, or if you photograph members of your family.

Too bad he didn’t take a picture of the dirty minded old bag that accused him and given it to one of the tabloids.

But if you’re a swarthy 23 yo male taking pictures of a bridge or a stadium you’re assumed to be A-okay-—or else.

Don't worry about it..... Here in Oz they have naked 6yo preteens on our art magazines and the laws here are so F.U.ed that they arrest people downloading pedophila on the net.(That how stupid our laws are.)
Our idiotic state government tried to foist a new law on us to stop us from annoying catholics attending our world youth day.Lucky for us the law was booted out and restored our freedom of speech.(Thank God!)

I would find that “cute”.
Not “sexy”.
That’s the difference that is lost on so many people.

I have pictures of my kids in the tub. I also have pictures of them getting their diapers changed. Probably considered porn now.

I am an amateur photographer and frequently have my camera with me. I am always concerned when I take a shot with strangers in it, especially if there are kids around. I’m afraid people will think I’m trying to take shots of their kids. It would have never occurred to me that I might have an issue taking pictures of kids I knew!
