Profile pictures

Hunt Valley, MD, Us

Oh gosh. Don’t get me started on this topic.

Here’s what I don’t get. I get a message actually complimenting me on my photos and/or profile. But, yet, they have no photos (or just a torso and/or dick) and a few sentences in their profile.

Now, one would assume that if I had no photos, and/or no detailed profile, that they wouldn’t have sent a message.

So the obvious irony is that the very thing that’s missing from theirs, was the catalyst for them contacting me in the first place. Oh and you better believe they get defensive when I point it out. Because I just can’t help myself. If I have no patience, they get blocked immediately. If I’m feeling particularly snarky that day, I play with them a bit. And then I block them.

I actually see this more on Fet than here. But it’s still prevalent here, as well.

Townhouse-
I agree about the old profile photos.
When I first started on here I asked for advice on some of my photos and was told I looked a lot younger in one of them, so I took that photo down. It wasn't that old, but I didn't want anyone to meet me and think I intentionally used a very old profile photo.
I intend to post new photos at least once a year with time and date stamps.

Oh yeah they can easily shared but that's their right. It is also their right to protect their job and their family.. My personal opinion is the regulars here on forum have the same old pictures for many years and I don't understand this that is my dilemma.

I would be more worried about that then someone not showing their face. Because they're hiding behind the same old picture. We all have cell phones now back in my day we used to use them and would call each other prior to the first meet and we would exchange updated photos.. And prior to cell phones we weren't lazy and our photos were stamped with dates and times to prove that they were updated with digital cameras. This is just my two cents.

Some people choose to be incognito and that's their right. Some people also have high end jobs such as a teacher a doctor or a nurse some are lawyers police or any kind of medical field supervisors management Etc. Some people don't want to lose their jobs and that should be understandable.

I have even meet a plastic surgeon that caters to the rich and famous actors at a hotel party in Miami Beach this couple is always in cognito.
Most of us have cell phones and when you talk to someone for the first time people usually send face pics and full body pics on the 1st text. Personally I prefer to meet people at House Parties face to face.

Not exchanging face pics is the default setting in most of Asia. The funny part comes when they insist on seeing our faces, but cannot show their own. It is a big reason we don't meet many locals when abroad. There are still meet and greets that can allow you to easily scan the room full of real folks.

But... but, you're SO shallow for wanting face photos! Real beauty is on the inside! WAAAAAAAAH!

Yeah, I've had that conversation before, and it's a hard no. I'm not exactly a Brad Pittesque come hither beauty myself, but I know that couples will want to see who I am, and I'm not so desperate that I wouldn't provide photos to try to entice them into meeting. That's actually a subtle bit of coercion, to rely on people being polite to try to keep them hooked long enough to get nekkid.

How about those who only post multiple pictures of just the wife's cleavage from different angles, or with different types of clothing?

Or the ones who only post multiple pictures of the wife's ass in different settings, or wearing different outfits?

Yeah, we know the wife has tits and an ass, so we really don't need 10 pictures of the same thing.

The "I'm angry at the world" look with no smile is not something we venture after.

It goes to show people don't pay attention to their photos when there's dates stamped on them. Have you ever gone to meet someone and found out their picture was 10 years old and they didn't bother to update their profile this situation is very uncomfortable. That's when you go to the bathroom and you head out the door and you disappear..

To build on what RonKathy said earlier: One pic with a pleasant smile is worth umpteen of any other pictures.

I am surprised at how many profiles have pictures that have the date stamped on them, and are 10 years or more old.

Or look like a thug and mad at the world.. Not happening!

Also stop with the bathroom selfies.. dont you have any friends, neighbors or co workers!

I have a feeling you talking about single men and don't want to point them out.. however single men are on top of their photos and freshening their profile more then I would say couples. They have to work harder to be noticed. At least in my area and what I've seen here on forum. I have come across profiles that have the same old picture for many years. There is no excuse for this we all have cell phones with cameras. you are here to impress and to find potential play partners and how can you do that with Old pictures. And then the other complaint is going to be some people don't like selfies but selfies are better than the same old picture that you've had posted for 10 years.

Sorry for getting off the topic
