Have you noticed that the profiles that have face photos up on them or that are quick to send face photos to you or even to ask for them from you as an absolute prerequisite demonstrate the weirdest behaviours on here.
* What I haven't stated is that their agendas generally ARE VERY MUCH NOT to be trusted.
I'm speaking as a meets based type of profile.
There are face shown profiles that help run events and they if they do anything tend only to cam.
SO my advice is don't send your face photo out to anyone on here EVER!!!!!!

I'm happy to admit I weird behaviour. So maybe there is something in this ...
But your logic is wrong ... Even if weird people send face pics, not sending face pics won't save you from being weird. You will just be a faceless weirdo.
And that is the worst kind.

"What weird behaviour are you talking about?"
Let's just say what it says are the ingredients on the outside of the tin is not what's found to be inside the tin. |

It annoys me when people send face pics straight away then expect the same in return.
Personally my profile is clear on my feelings on showing my face and people asking for my face pic straight away are an automatic block for me.
If they cant respect my wishes online, i doubt theyd respect me on a meet. Huge red flag for me personally |

How can you tell by a face photo what a personality is like? |

OP not really understanding what you are going on about. We have yet to get contacted by any profile which appears to be upto nefarious practices.
Might be easier to understand if you just came out and said what they are supposedly doing rather than being all vague about it. |

There’s a lot of pic collectors on here. I think it’s about trying to avoid them!
I have no issues sending a face pic if the person has some legitimate looking verifications from others who are equally well verified and they’ve got a good selection of body pictures to view (to establish if there’s likely to be mutual attraction).
My rule is if they’ve messaged our profile I expect them to send a picture first and if I like it I’ll reciprocate. But equally if I had been the one to initiate contact I’d send first!
Not necessarily on first messages but I think it needs to be done relatively quickly to make sure that compatibility is there! |

What a absolutely bullshit post. I have a face pic on my profile which is my choice. To accuse everyone that chooses to have a face pic as being weird and not to be trusted is so far from the truth and frankly quite hurtful |

We accept the risks by being on here.
We like to keep our fab life and vanilla life separate but we also know that should it come out that we are swingers, aside from a bit of embarrassment nothing else will come of it. We didn't start swinging until Mr Tyne changed jobs for the specific reason that it would have harmed his career if outed.
We knew the risks and planned accordingly. |

Face pics aren't a concrete way to demonstrate authenticity, but neither are green verification ticks or anything else.
I'd expect to see what someone looks like in the whole before meeting them, I don't think that's unreasonable.

Are you saying these people have filtered or old photos? Or their profiles state curvy and they are obese? |

"I'm totally lost on this thread OP, seems like you have a beef with someone or something but won't just say what it is...." I'm learning along the way how people view things and it's a good learning curve.
Some people are comfy with 'exposure' others are more private.
People also make career adjustments if need be and THAT is dedication!
There may be other things that have come up about how others see their face photo.
I put out an OP and my consideration is that the showing of face photos on here is overated.

"No. It’s an early filter for people to decide if they’re attracted or not. I used to show my face, now I don’t. My behaviour is no different. Such a weird statement OP." Yes, there are people like you and by the sound of it genuine whether you show your face or not.
I SEE there are MANY profiles that remain open.
No verifications, update regularly (often moaning) IS there even ANY real substance behind their moans?
These are almost guaranteed to have a face on their profiles.
To the genuine newbie, or beginner what would that say and add to that those profiles very often asking for others face pics? |

I've tried the 'blind' approach before. It just becomes more awkward to reject someone or be rejected when you finally see who you are talking to, the longer it goes on. Get the face pics out early I say. |

Eh? You’re quite right - let’s have a perpetual blind date!
Signed - a weirdo who shows her face on here so obviously never meets. |

"Thanks for that OP The word generally may suit you as stated in OP "
I was more focused on the weirdest behaviours part. Hell of a generalisation and not actually true.
My weirdness has nothing to do with the fact that I stick my face up for anyone to see. It's more about not wanting that rejection when sending a face picture. |

I think it also depends on what you are looking for, I'd rather someone message me having seen my face than my cock and I'm sure several ladies want to be more than just a body. |

I ask for face pics, as I like to see if I'm attracted to the person I'm speaking to. As if not then I may be wasting their time, if we chat for ages and then I dont fancy them. You see for me to play with someone and get turned on I have to fancy the pants off them. |

Of course it can. Most of us aren’t here to find ‘the one’ ergo we tend to value looks at least as much as personality.
However - I’d consider total objectification as being where one aspect of a person - be that penis size, abs - or big breasts on a woman - is of the greatest importance to the person looking - rather than the other person as a whole.
Hope that makes sense. |

No it can be anything, for some is feet, others boobs, bum, cock. It comes down to personal opinion and beliefs. I'm looking for a FWB and believe I am more likely to achieve that with face and no cock pics. Other might think they can achieve that with cock and no face pics. Life and FAB are full of opinions |

I'm more leaning to the idea of recognising a trend.
A pattern of behaviour in many 'profiles' that use face photos.

Call me stupid here but to me those of us who don't mind showing our faces in public profile pics are surly showing a greater level of honesty..?
I appreciate its a personal thing whether to show your face or not but to me I've never understood why unless your in a sensitive job?
Perhaps faces don't matter to you OP or you prefer the anonymous thing? I'd say for most though an honest face pic is way more important.
Your not very clear what this threads about which is showing a bigger lack of honesty than a profile with a face... its a little confusing at best

Same here. I show my face, I send face pics with messages so people can decide if they’re physically attracted to me. I also chat, and happy to do phone calls, so my personality is shown too. Inked’s job means he has to be more discreet, so we send them privately. Totally genuine, I’m probably weird to some people- but maybe they are to me as well.
I am, however, really confused about what the OP is trying to say. Is proving you’re genuine by sending face pics weird? Don’t get me wrong, I am one of the weirdos, lol x Viv x |

The weirdest behaviour here is yours! You appear totally opposed to making a clear, open statement about what you actually want to say.
Lots of different profiles, lots of different ways of advertising themselves. No pattern apart from no veris, more likely to to suspect.

Forgot to say, being weird on here is completely fine! Each to their own. If something on a profile doesn't work for you, ignore and fish elsewhere. We all have our preferences |

To your first paragraph...yes some here are showing an extra level of presentation wherein honesty is discovered or not."
Just seems a bit pretentious to me. All this failing to give a clear answer.
Why are people who show their face less honest than someone who only shows their body or genitalia?
The whole, I don’t show face pics so I don’t trust anyone else who does, as anyone genuine wouldn’t feel the need to see if someone was attracted to them is ludicrous! Genuine people don’t cam. It’s all very confusing. Lots of people send face pics, cam and actually meet, based on the pics/cam.
I would never meet anyone if I didn’t know what they looked like. You can have the body of an Adonis/Goddess, but if I’m not attracted to you facially, then as awful as it sounds, you would just be a glorified sex toy to me, as I don’t need a meet for that, I can just reach into my drawer. Definitely less hassle! x

"There’s a lot of pic collectors on here. I think it’s about trying to avoid them!
I have no issues sending a face pic if the person has some legitimate looking verifications from others who are equally well verified and they’ve got a good selection of body pictures to view (to establish if there’s likely to be mutual attraction).
My rule is if they’ve messaged our profile I expect them to send a picture first and if I like it I’ll reciprocate. But equally if I had been the one to initiate contact I’d send first!
Not necessarily on first messages but I think it needs to be done relatively quickly to make sure that compatibility is there! " How to handle face photos on fab if your going to go that route. |

I prefer people, but having to face the prospect of telling someone, on meeting them, that they’re not for me, as I don’t find them attractive (facially) so potentially face hostility etc, or forcing myself to have a sexual encounter with them, to avoid any unpleasantness- I’d rather have my toys x
I’m aware I’ve avoided your question about my enjoyment, but find skirting the issue and being vague to be preferable- how ironic of me! Haha x Viv |

Controversy? Now I’m even more confused. Can you please just state plainly what you are trying to imply on this very confusing thread that you’ve started.
I’m not meaning to be confrontational, and apologies if it comes across as that, but where have you got the idea that I see something controversial in what you’ve said about face pics not being shown? x |

That's your possible premise/controversy." Though what you have written about people meeting especially based on cam usage is informative.
I know people meet based on face sharing as a confirming factor because I have previously had it done so to myself....I kind of sensed it..possibly.
Although the face to me is an extension of the body...If I like their body then I'm sure they will not have a 'gargoyle head'.

"It annoys me when people send face pics straight away then expect the same in return.
Personally my profile is clear on my feelings on showing my face and people asking for my face pic straight away are an automatic block for me.
If they cant respect my wishes online, i doubt theyd respect me on a meet. Huge red flag for me personally" |
