It is best to put you best foot forward. I look younger than my age of 58. I can say that in my profile, but she really wouldn’t know unless there are photos. So I switched to a face picture. If a lady is going to show her breasts, the least I can do is show my face! The real problems are geography and age.
You are lucky to be in NY.I really do not care if it is a face pic or an avatar. Dispute what people claim there are people that do not focus on appearance when searching for a nursing partner or otherwise.
@almondmilkownly You left off the scenario that applies to you. What if the guy is using someone else’s picture? Unless you’re Dave Chapelle.
A partial face pic is much preferable to a weird avatar It shows me he put some effort in and isn’t hiding something. I have a partial pic, I expect that at least. Of course that is no guarantee it will work out, but I’m more interested in responding if he at least has a partial pic rather than avatar, a good profile, and of course if we interact well. The profile and pic don’t indicate any result, but when sorting through a number of profiles those with something real in their pic stand out as more interesting.
But, fyi, if a guy has posted a profile pic with himself at another woman’s breast, I’m less interested. That’s just gross. He clearly isn’t looking if he’s advertising his current or prior relationship, he’s not considered that women don’t want to see a potential partner at another woman’s breast. They’re not serious.
I’ve always had a full face pic on here since Day 1 when I joined the ABF Heaven, I have no problem’s with that.
I would still contact a lady on here with an Avatar instead of a photo but as Water lily above said its a personal preference so whatever your comfortable with, Bazz.I agree with @flowrgardn I don’t think a face pic is necessary but partial or something other than the given avatar to show you’ve made an effort. The content of the profile is far more important to me though! If I’m messaged by someone with an avatar, a one line profile and something like “hi”, I’m not going to respond. Where is the effort?
I agree with @Karamel Latte that the profile is most important. A limited profile and a very short “hi” or something else is going to get an ignore. There is no point when a guy hasn’t put any effort in.
I don’t mind if a man uses an avatar that is not of his own face. However, in private messaging, I WILL want to see his face, as he will see mine if I want to meet.
Face picture,because if there is no attraction, no need to go further.
I’d need a face pic after a couple of messages or I wouldn’t bother continuing. There’s enough fake profiles on ordinary dating sites. We are clearly above all that nonsense 😂😂😂
Blackmail and extortion scams are a major problem on all dating-type apps and social media.
Reverse image search with facial recognition is easy these days, and scammers will quickly find you if you are also on Facebook or Linked-In, etc.
Sadly, even a lovely site like this is not immune. Therefore, I recommend using an avatar as well as being thoughtful about what you send to strangers on-line.
I think that’s only a problem if you use the same pic for everything. Just use a unique image for your sensitive accounts. Personally I think the avatars are a sign of an unserious account.
Now I may divide a few but I agree that having a picture shows that you’ve made an effort however, I really don’t like a profile picture when it’s of a guys lips 👄 Especially if it’s a pout 🫣 it just really turns me off! A mouth pic with a nice smile if you’re wanting anonymity is good!! The one eye pics aren’t my cup of tea either….sorry Ted!! But both eyes on the pic is nice!!
If anything…. Just a simple change from the avatar is cool for me 😊😊😊
Looks aren’t everything but it is important to feel that you’re attracted to a person that you’re going to be intimate with… if you put a profile pic of yourself then it will weed out folk who really arnt attracted to you…. May sound shallow but there’s definitely 1 person you’d take one look at n say “nope, not my type at all”….. I’ve had it happen after sending a pic of myself n then getting blocked!! Maybe if I’d had my mug up then it would have saved me time n effort 😉😊
Whatever happens… I wish you luck 🥰
