Pics or no pics?

[swan]

What was his reasoning for not showing you a pic Margo?

I once had a profile wihtout a pic and the types of messages I got were very different to the ones I get with a pic. I think a pic helps connect you with someone because a pic says way more than just what they look like. While I'm not wary of men with no pics I do prefer to see who they are, not for the looks but to get an idea of who they are inside.

Yanno? I could care less about whether someone has a pic up. This is forums, not a dating site. This is not a beauty pageant.

You're not wrong there.

But, the OP was talking about POF and not here. On there I was always very reluctant to communicate with anyone who didn't have a picture. This place isn't the same at all as I'm not here to try and knob anyone.

Exactly. If I want to bang someone and they want to bang me then sure. I share.

Yes, I think I would be taken more seriously on the forums there, if I didn't have a picture..
Particularly that one ---->

I also think I would be taken more seriously on the Dating side of the site....
( I only put it up to give the women there, something to 'fud' themselves to...
It seemed only fair, as that's what all us blokes do, with theirs.....)

I knew I should have lied about my age,
but it's too late now, I am a "Nanna-magnet"

Why won't anyone take me seriously...?

How do you know you want to bang without seeing pics?

That's one of those catch 22s isn't it?

Some sexual energy starts without pics.
Then they add to it
If not oh well

That sounds like a recipe for disappointment to me.

It's not as if you can get a refund for time wasted once you discover they're a munter.

Not in my book...

Thats because they are not internet dating

Do you feel that you would get taken more seriously if you didn't have a picture up?

Funnily enough,no.

If you don't have a picture up, why not?

I do sometimes but get fed up looking at myself .
