"I reckon there would be a lot of 'borrowed ' face pictures though
Verified too then I guess.
I actually wouldn't have a problem. She would though. "
I think most people with an ounce of common sense wouldn't want to.
It's fine to think oh everyone is on here for the same reason, but people are dicks. And this is the internet.

No. I like having mine on display when I choose to but mandatory wouldn't be for me.
I'd also hate being disappointed when I saw a forum user's face when it doesn't look as I'd imagine. How it is now is good, I can keep pretending people sound and look a certain way. |

I think that there's a possibility (albeit faint) of 'repercussions ' further down the line that people haven't even considered.

"Okay.. Okay. What if there was absolutely no alternative places of FAB. Would you prefer to leave the site and never come again than show your face? "
Yes. I would leave. Absolutely not worth it in my job.

Its half the reason I don't personally don't take explicit pics of myself and have them on the Internet. But if I was found out to be on a swinging site I wouldnt care. It's getting more popular for lots of people to be in this lifestyle |

Yeah it is funny how we can picture other people's faces and voices without seeing them |

You wouldn't care *now*. I'm indulging in whataboutery really but there are plenty of people who have lived to regret not being able to use plausible deniability. While swinging might seem to be getting more popular as someone who worked on a publication that used to carry swinging adverts in the eighties I reckon it only seems that way because it's more visible.
You'll be safe enough as long as you don't intend to stand for election |

Nope.
I've known people lose and nearly lose jobs when people have chosen to 'out' them to employers.
Not worth the risk.
If people are happy to then that's their choice and prerogative. |

Compulsory no way but every now and then happy to let people see who they are chatting to, let's face it the dick picture isn't going to excite anyone but some strange people appear to like a bit of beardage and also it feels a bit deceptive chatting in the forum as me with only pictures of us on the profile. |

At least it would out the CHEATERS, LIARS and FAKES!
I also get not everyone wants it public for one reason or another but
most of my friends know I'm a swinger. Those in relationships are the ones with something to hide. |

It would definitely reduce cheats with fear of being caught out |

Your point is well presented - face pics put back in friends - the forumites will have to just believe I exist. |

They would, but I'd still have plausible deniability without a face pic. With a face pic, even those that don't know me would recognise me.
For me, I just don't see the need.
Does a face prove I'm not fake? Not a time waster? No.

This, for me. Growing up I thought I was moving into a world where a lot of the stigma and rigid thinking about sex, and specifically around sex solely for pleasure, had fallen away.
As I've got older however, I see now how a lot of that good old fashioned group-think and social shaming still remains (and if anything has been positively reinforced by the rise of social media). I'm saying this with a focus on employers, people's livelihoods, etc. |

The thing that these type of threads show is that many people who do have facepics public are of the opinion that those who don't are ashamed or have something to hide.
Some like to shout from the rooftops that they are swingers and claim they don't give a fuck who knows.
The problem with that approach is that they struggle to understand why others don't do likewise.
I've never once had a conversation with a friend or colleague about my sex life or theirs so I'm hardly going to plaster my face all over my profile.
Therefore to answer the original question I would leave and never return for as long as the mandatory rule was in place. |

Honestly, undecided
I regularly have my face on show
I really need two profiles here
Men and women seemingly look for different things in a profile
In terms of getting to know someone and spend time cultivating a friendship, I think a face and a well worded profile helps
If I want a quick 'meet today' shag, it is much easier to meet a bloke - and they, invariably, react to cock pics rather than face pics
So, in a very long winded way...
If we can have two profiles, one with face pics and PG rated and one with naked pics and X rated, then yeah, I could go with showing my mush |

I hear ya. I would never have my face shown alongside anything explicit |

No, anyone can sign up, view a profile, message you, all for free - I don’t know any other site that allows that.
A couple of other sites we are on don’t allow you to take screen shots, message people and you have to be verified and paid members to have that privilege.
We love face pics - always nice to put a face to a body.

I love that no screenshot rule. Fab admin, please consider this a 'site suggestion'!
Not that anyone wants to screenshot my pics necessarily, but why not give people that protection if the tech's available. |

Unfortunately there are ways around it such as using a screen recorder then doing a screenshot of the recording. |
