You never know if a pic request will be genuine or a precursor to the D pic.

Thanks for all of you answering this question. Often you are having an interaction and you sense there is something off, but you are not sure why.

But having a better understanding of the issues that women are actually dealing with, gives me a better idea of some of the stuff women are likely to be bothered by.

My son just turned 18, he is out of high school, and he admitted not long ago that he'd sent D pics to girls in high school. I groaned and facepalmed and sighed...because I DID teach him not to do that, tried to at least. I explained to him when he got his first device capable of taking digital photos (a Nintendo game thingie, not even a phone yet) that he must not take pictures of his private parts because it is ILLEGAL for anyone to have photos of underage kids naked like that. He was about 9 years old, I think, then. I've reiterated over the years, not to take, send, receive, or keep any nude pictures of his own underage self or other underage people. He says "everyone does" and I'm like NO NO NO NO NOOOOOOOooooooOOO I don't care if everyone does!!!!! Agghhh! NO.


lol

But this recent admission came at a point where he's actually 18, and I said, "Dude, please don't be that guy. Nobody really needs or wants pictures of your junk. Seriously. Just don't." I don't even need or want images of famous wieners, so assuredly we don't appreciate your typical man's D pic as much as he wants us to.

And I've been in conversations with men who seem really desperate for some validation that their equipment is up to snuff. I tell them,

"You know what my favorite, my very most favorite tallywackers have been, in all my life experience with all the partners I have had, the very best ones of all?

They were attached to the body of a man I wanted to have fun with."

I think I also didnt report it because I gave him the benefit of the doubt, and doubted my own perception of the experience.

But if I hadnt invited him over, he wouldnt have had the opportunity, so I must accept some blame.
I am sorry this happened to you. It couldn't have happened to a nicer person.

You are accountable for everything that happens in your life, but you are not responsible for everything that happens in your life. What I mean by that is you have to learn from your past and you have to accept it and deal with, even the stuff you don't want to think about. But you aren't responsible for it.

I think most people are good, but some people are really messed up. I think its healthy to be in a relationship and to want to give and receive love. So I think its brave and positive that you want to restart dating. I wish you luck here.

Don't date any man unless he agrees to wear an explosive collar around his neck with you having the trigger. Make sure it has a timer and has to have a code that only YOU know inputted every hour. And just to be sure make him war a chastity device.

Just to let you know, a new trend I've been hearing about from .women is men post up pictures of themselves sitting on the toilet. (Yes you read that right) They think it's funny and they are ranging in age from 20's-40's. It's a total cess-pool, if you ask me.

This is what the women will see after they marry the man. I'd want to know.

I can actually partially explain this one.

I understand the genesis of this idea. Maybe your friend just broke up with his ex and reluctant to start reaching out to others, worried that he might just get rejected again. To get him to do something, you and your other friends tell him to do something stupid with the rational that once he has committed his biggest fear, got rejected and the world didn't blow up then he doesn't have to be so worried about the outcome going forward. There is no ego loss on that message because of course she is going to reject you. So there is no shame in that. But it gets him past sending out his big stumbling block sending out his first message.

I am betting that this is how this stuff starts.

This is the kinda stuff that people that don’t know online dating hear & they think *all guys* online are doing it....it’s so silly IMO....know the guy you’re dating......you don’t just close your eyes & say him....

E d i t: that’s not even allowed on dating websites......A N D...any guy that would do that kinda stupid stuff wouldn’t take his time to know you to meet anyways.....it’s serious registered daters that can be verified......not people that spend their days in a game or trying to get lots of clicks or trend & if they are, don’t meet them.....no amt of time would be enough....
