Because they can?
Because they like the idea of people looking at them?
Because it is their profile and they can do what they want with it?
Because ...... Because ...... Because ......
The list is endless, but why worry about someone elses choices? |

If you dont like the pics you dont have to look at them..
People can put what they want on their profiles as long as its not breaking rules. |

As above, personal choice, we have over 60 pics and will be adding more until we have reached our max limit of 150, but don't worry we will block you so you don't have to view them by clicking on our profile not realising that we have more than you believe to be required. |

As for the wedding ones,I would have thought the honeymoon ones would be better

actually I answered your question without abuse nor malice and offered to help you by preventing you from viewing our profile accidently, I think your somewhat nasty comment about getting over ourselves says more about you than it does about us.
Have fun and enjoy the site the way you like it to be.

I think it's a poor do that you've been given a hard time for asking quite an inocuous question! The type and quantity of pics vary massively and as most people said, it's a question of choice. We personally tend to shy away from profiles that have close up shots of pussies etc but some people love them! We're all different! Z |

well as i said it was not my intent to offend. i just think that photos of your wedding and other very important occasions should be kept as something specail and not on a swingers site .just having a debate thats all.

for instance we need to remember that even after you have deleted your profile those pics are stored somewhere on here.im all for people having the freedom to do what they want put as many as you like.lol the funny thing is some people will send you a pic of themselves 3 yrs old and when you meet them they have changed soo much .lol |

I would agree with the OP that some pics like wedding photos are a bit of a strange thing to put, but would also agree with others that it is personal choice, perhaps those that use wedding pics have no others, perhaps it is because it was a special day and proves that they are married, perhaps other reasons.
Speaking for ourselves we love to show our pictures, we update them weekly sometimes daily so they are always a pretty true reflection of how we are now, our last update was this morning and having just been to Ann Summers (2 days in a row now) there will be more added later.
None of our pictures show us naked or boobs, cock, pussy or anything else that would even be suitable for "page 3", we like to think they are slightly erotic, sexy and artistic (for total amatuer camera operators lol)
We hope that some people will get some pleasure from them, we certainly enjoy taking them especially the outdoor ones.
Maybe we are just exhibitionists, but I don't see that as a problem on a swingers site. |

The way we look at it,in all honesty whether your a Gold,Silver or Free member,it should be a maximum of 20 pics to each profile.
Surely that should be more than enough to sell yourself.
Many of the multi pic's look very similar if not identical anyway,there are only so many ways to take a pic of a cock or a cleavage.

I agree and haven't added any pictures since yesterday, well apart from those I just added
I don't think people should be chastised for having pictures of choice.
Be it quantity
Lack of
Content (within the rules)
serving no purpose (close up of a cock going into a pussy)
None at all
It has to be personal choice |

had to giggle at this post as no matter how meny pics i have on profile guys always asking to see more or the private gallery ! a first for a guy to complain about too meny pics being on a profile lol !
ppls profiles are theirs to do with as they please . some have zero pics and maybe two words written , others have lots of pics and highly personalised. neither is right or wrong ,just what feels right for that indervidual . at end of the day ppls profiles are their introduction so if their profile is working for them why does it matter if it has zero pics or 100 ??? |

I love pics, but then for me I have an interest in photography. I particularly love arty but erotic pictures. Just a full on pussy shot doesnt overly do it for me. I have kinda got a pussy shot on my profile, but its a bit arty and not in your face (if you pardon the pun). I did take a pic of my pussy once whilst I was sat on a light up mirror and used a close up flash, result looked quite good, though it was explicit it looked interesting from a lighting perspective.
the other reason i like pics is that im a bigger girl and i feel empowered having underwear shots of me. Its just like saying, yeah im not a size 0 but i feel sexy. Our profiles are personal and all about us, so we can do as we like on there I think. |

Why does it matter what others do? If people want to put pictures up that will appeal to other people then they should be able to do so. That is what they are doing if you didn't get it. They are putting visual images up which will get people messaging them and they can sort through and see who they like.
Is it that difficult to understand? |

I think sometimes it is the way opening line of "why do some people" is worded.
It looks like a critisism straight away. |

I guess sometimes a question can intimidate folks, consider the question ‘why are you a swinger’ there would be a multitude of different answers but there will be those who might respond with “so you’re calling me a trollop with the morals of an ally cat!!!”
Personally I think its quite interesting to get an insight into why anyone does anything. I’ve no idea why one profile might have one photo of say a motorbike and another might have 100 of pictures of sex scenes that would make the Romans look like amateurs LOL.
When we first started out in this hobby it felt very naughty putting naughty pictures on public view so its fair to say it was part of the game as in sexually exciting. But in a short space of time it lost its buzz factor so now we just use a few pictures so prospective playmates have an idea of what we look like and what we like to get up too. |

"i said some people so as not to make it seem like gerneralisation."
I know you did. But it could still come across as a critisism and by the reponses it looks like some took it that way.
There are a lot of people who use the forums as a drive by whinge or to critisise people, so maybe people rightly or wrongly thought this was the same type of post as to how it was worded and responded rightly or wrongly how they did. |

Fair comment but often taking offence to something or not is simply a personal choice. Personally if I read something that in the first instant seems a bit off-hand the next thing I consider is… maybe not the best phraseology but I’ve no reason to assume this person is attacking me personally.
So are you suggesting the OP is being attacked for not having the best English comprehension skills, I would think there isn't enough rope on the planet to hang everyone guilty of that offence LOL.

No, not at all. I was trying to get people to see how it looks from every angle......sadly I don't think it worked lol
We are not all the same though, and some people will take it as a personal critisism or even defend the right of others to do what they want on their profile......and thats how things go downhill to be honest. |

Everybodies profile is their own. I think it's quite good that this site is many things to many people. For some it is a kind of facebook and why not. Their current status is a running commentry on their swinging life. They enjoy it and do others no harm. Others just use it as a straightforward contact classifieds section. Some even debate on the forums. Vive le difference!! |

Too right, totally agree with you and ‘why not’ use it as the individual sees fit? And lets face it, it is a ‘Face Book’ of a type is it not?
Now this is NOT a criticism just my observation, your post isn’t an answer to the question it’s a very good speculation/theory.

So to the OP… What’s your logic behind your profile photos? What do they tell me? Good fit body with a bit of a belly. Broad shoulders and muscular, body builder or a builder? Fair portion of cock, but not enough mates to take some quality pictures for you? What’s the point of the cock on bum shot, I don’t get that one. Once again, that’s not a criticism its just an observation that raises more questions than answers. |

You are complaining people have taken it personally when you are doing the same to what I was trying to explain.
I was trying to stop the rot and try and make everyone see it from every side....but every person seems to be on the defensive now so I doubt it will work.
I am also not defending anyone or their posts, as some were OTT.
It boils down to.......maybe the people who shout "everyone is entitled to their opinion" should actually mean what they say and let people have it without rubbishing them for having one.

I wasn’t personally asking for any ones opinion of our profile pictures but then it seems neither was the OP but I offered one anyway albeit with a very light hearted intent. There’s no offence taken by me, and it seems none taken by the OP.
I used to be a front-man, lead-singer guitarist in live rock bands. When I first ventured into it, it took a hell of a lot of courage and self-confidence to put myself in such an exposed position in front of perhaps just a few or a couple of hundred strangers. My conclusions from the feedback was… some people thought I was fantastic, most couldn’t give a toss, and some thought I was crap, and a dare say a few more thought I was crap but didn’t have the bollocks or were too polite to say so.
Now I think this pretty much applies to everything, your profile pictures for example (which I haven’t looked at) some will think they are fantastic, no doubt most won’t ‘think’ anything about them at all and some will think they are crap. The same applies to our profile pictures and everyone else’s too.
Profile pictures are the ‘worm’ or ‘worms on the hook’ to try and catch the fish (swing partners) it’ll work for some and not others.
Us as a couple, pictures are not our ‘worm’, we always read first and look after. We’re more interested in personality than looks so we fall into the ‘couldn’t give a toss about profile pictures’ group. After that if personality captures our attention then we’d want to see good mug-shots and a full body shot, typically on profiles we get neither LOL. |

"hahaha lollo thats funny .
Yes but we got to agree with you, most of your profile pictures are shit to be honest LOL, I'm just wondering…. Was it my mum who took them?
To be honest here too, your 2 pics on show are not that great either (in my opinion) and before I get the same back I know already my pic on display is rubbish but it was taken for a reason by someone so it stays on my profile and folk on the forums now know me as guiness pants!
Others may disagree and say your pics are great, but when you slag off other folks pics then expect people to be critics back on your own, your pics just don't do anything for me personally thats all!
No offence meant though!
I wasn’t personally asking for any ones opinion of our profile pictures but then it seems neither was the OP but I offered one anyway albeit with a very light hearted intent. There’s no offence taken by me, and it seems none taken by the OP.
I used to be a front-man, lead-singer guitarist in live rock bands. When I first ventured into it, it took a hell of a lot of courage and self-confidence to put myself in such an exposed position in front of perhaps just a few or a couple of hundred strangers. My conclusions from the feedback was… some people thought I was fantastic, most couldn’t give a toss, and some thought I was crap, and a dare say a few more thought I was crap but didn’t have the bollocks or were too polite to say so.
Now I think this pretty much applies to everything, your profile pictures for example (which I haven’t looked at) some will think they are fantastic, no doubt most won’t ‘think’ anything about them at all and some will think they are crap. The same applies to our profile pictures and everyone else’s too.
Profile pictures are the ‘worm’ or ‘worms on the hook’ to try and catch the fish (swing partners) it’ll work for some and not others.

Sort of along the lines of what I said in my post (albeit I didn't waffle on so much (waffle isn't a deregatory term by the way, just means you typed more than required to answer my post, in my opinion anyway)) bugger me I am now waffling on too much now too.
Right who is buying the first round? |

You’re buying the first round as you’re already stood at the bar and make sure you are there first so we can all give your arse a slap as we walk in.
… and who knows, given a bit more practice you might be able to learn to talk as much shit as I do... not that you need much help LOL LOL LOL |

Cheers on all accounts, I think!
Short and sweet answer from me this time. |

This seems to be a new trend, where people who post to the forum with something for general discussion get sarcastic comments rather than any topical comment.
Seems to be the same people too.
With regards to the original post... I'm sure it's just personal preference. Personally we like to see a good set of pics as it gives a better insight.
