    Hi megee, thank you for sharing. I agree many people know beforehand or have a good sense if there is genuine interest to put forth the necessary effort to physically meet someone before the request of a photo.

    I love picture connections,definaly like to know who I’m talking to before we go on but sometimes thats not the case and will wait down the road if we keep on going with the conversation. Everyone is different thats for sure.

    Hi Candee, I was just mentioning some counter examples where women do this too, so your mileage may vary depending on whom you bump into on this site, or other sites. For me it’s important to put a face to the name when I chat with someone, makes it feel more “real”, so to speak.
    As for what I do with the photos, I never save them somewhere in my device, I just leave them in the chat of whatever app I’m using at that moment (Telegram, WhatsApp, etc), and eventually delete the chat if I’m no longer in touch with that person.
    I don’t keep any “souvenirs” if that’s what you’re asking 😄
    Nowadays most apps allow you to send photos that expire or allow you to unsend photos if you have privacy concerns, but it’s still good to be careful what you send and to whom.
    Personally I would never abuse someone’s trust and store photos of them without permission.

    I risk hijacking this thread but… Does no one use dating apps and trade pics through them either? There is really no need to feel paranoid or worried about sharing a face pic.

    If you are paranoid about people saving your pics then use an app like Snapchat or Telegram which gives you an option to automatically delete pics after they’ve been seen. They also tell you if someone attempts to save or screenshot them.

    Anyway, to answer your question. I prefer pics because you’re able to present your best self. You’ve a better idea of what someone looks like through multiple pics at different angles.

    It’s not shallow or vain to want to have physical attraction to my opinion.

    Good morning Candee! I prefer face to face conversation. Having a photo when texting puts a face to the person generating the words messaged.
    FaceTime, zoom, et al, really isn’t an option in rural areas without internet connection. I make do.

    It’s curious that you post a picture of your breasts, and question why people ask for pictures. Is that you in the picture, or someone else’s that you are using?

    Dear all,

    I don’t think there is a right or wrong answer to this question. I have to say that after conversing for a while, asking for a picture might be helpful. It says a lot about a person that you sometimes cannot judge by chat or voice. More than pictures or words, I think actions speak louder. I have learnt a lot by looking at a person’s actions in response to something or just by observing what they do. Again it is not about judging but more about looking for a match – which is what anyone wants. So in my humble/limited opinion, it needs to be a sum all of everything that you discern about someone that should make up the ‘big picture’ of the person.

    Thanks for reading this.

    Doesn’t have to be a nude. Just something to get an idea of what you look like so I know whether it’d be a good fit. Like others have said, no point meeting someone that doesn’t appeal to you physically. We all got our own tastes.

    I ask for a picture because I want to see a woman’s face.
    It’s a sea of cleavage pictures as a profile pic.
    Do you want a man contacting you because he’s attracted to your breasts or because you look like someone he would be compatible with?
    Of course not having a face pic adds the security; but I think it’s natural to see what a person’s face looks like.

    Thought number two, if a man just wants more tit picks tell direct him to a porn site, block, delete.
