I've just made a face pic public which makes me really nervous! But I've done it to hopefully get some more attention. I was just wondering do people who have public face pics not mind who's sees them because they are open about being a "swinger"? |

Interesting approach.
We like to be discreet and are fiercely protective of our privacy. We would not be likely to meet people that have public face pics as they are unlikely to share our values.
Wish you luck though. Many prefer your approach. |

If you're uncomfortable having a face pic on show then take it down and keep it private to send with messages
People who show their faces don't put me off,I don't see that it means they'll show a lack of respect or indiscretion towards my privacy,its not something ive come across in 6 years of being on here
Im more put off by people keeping their faces covered but barely covering the faces of their meets |

I keep my face pictures in private. And i send it to whoever i may speak to.
..may be difficult to believe but the amount of abuse you get for a pic is surreal. Been getting it since i joined and these past few weeks have been worse too. Even with pictures that may not fully show my face. Tried a few different approaches to my profile but i for one have learnt my face pic causes more of an issue than anything else.
(Needed to get that rant off my chest - sorry OP)

"Giving someone grief for having face pics is just so naff.  "
Totally agree with that.
It would seem that you're dammed if you do and dammed if you don't.
Some people won't even consider meeting with you unless you have a face pic on display whereas others hold a different view.
Personally I don't have a problem with having my face on display here.
It's only visible to members of fab after all.
As for the comment about being someone who is unlikely to share the values of someone who chooses to keep their face pics hidden, i'm afraid I disagree, but if that's their opinion then so be it. |

I'm not criticising your view or post in anyway, but really curious about your point of view. As in, which values are you talking about exactly? Privacy? Genuinely curious. If it is privacy/discretion jist wondering how showing/hiding face pics makes you any more/less likely to offer discretion/privacy to a meet?
I appreciate single guys need to do what they can to draw a crowd here.

Are you serious? I don't understand that, some people are total ass wipes!
I have my face public but that's because I also like to see a face. I can't decide if I may be attracted to somebody by just seeing their body.
I understand that most people like to be more discrete but on the other side of the coin I do get put off by a lack of a face! Some people just won't part with it! |

Yes this is a slightly judgemental comment... |

I was not criticising the OP or anyone else that has visible face pics. We all have various points of view and preferences, and one of ours is that we won't be meeting people that are displaying their face on here.
To us that shows a casual approach to being recognised or perhaps too much openness about who they are. The values we seek are discretion, respect of privacy and the same level of desire to protect their identity as us.
We are happy to share pics with potential meets after we establish we don't work in the same industry or live too close.
Just personal preference, not judgement as someone else said  |

"No
I'm not breaking any laws and I have nothing to hide.
And if someone said to me I've seen you on fabs, I'd say, oh cool, didn't know you were on there, why didn't you say hello on there.
End of"
And if I were with you at the time, I'd be mortified. Hence our point of view.
We are all different and that's what makes fab interesting ??

My face is on show and I wouldn't dream of compromising anybody's privacy! That was the part I thought judgemental.
If somebody recognises me - they were here too but that's just my take. |

I have public face pictures I am not too worried about who sees them. Even with my job as if anyone who found me from my work what could they say as they have to be on here to see me. None of my family know other than my sister and certain friends I trust. If people think a person is less discreet then that's your opinion but what I receive is for my eyes only. Plus I was a regular on cam showing full face so I don't see much difference between there and my profile. If you choose too or not too show your face picture as public it's your choice but makes things easier for me. |

I think there's a difference between being totally comfortable with your lifestyle choice and being aware that others in society may be less comfortable with it and form opinions on you which you'd rather live without. That's the reason why we'd chose to be discreet at this point. It's not a major part of who we are... so we're happy making friends without wearing it on our sleeve... so face pics are private, despite being comfortable with our lifestyle choice 
Also private face pics don't put off public face pic people... whereas public face pics can put off private face pic people as it looks like you're a bit too free and easy with who you tell and, therefore, wouldn't be discreet about a meet |
