a photo is a photo...at least there is a photo. Can't understand why people go on dating sites without a photo.

But then again, everyone says looks are not important, so why do we need a photo?

Oh, my, this is getting confusing.

I am schizophrenic...and so am I

Not being mean at all, just a little mischievious. I just don't like people that mis-represent themselves on CS or any other dating site and these places are definitely not the right place for this type of behavior.

I think it's disgusting - especially with guys who attempt to camouflage thinning hair with obviously photoshopped wigs.

I feel you should put a true picture on your profile...don't try to misrepresent yourself. Not only are you deceiving others....you may be trying to deceive yourself also.

We are not all beautiful supermodels.....but we still have to live with ourselves. I am trying to learn to accept this and I'll admit it is not an easy thing to do. But why lie to myself and others?

I also like to see profiles with a picture rather than none. Not because I judge others by their looks....I just like to put a face with who I am talking to.

This is just my opinion and I am not being critical of others.....just for the record!!!!

I agree. I really don't care at all how people look as long as I find them beautiful.

I'm looking at one right now where an otherwise attractive lady has found it necessary to photoshop her face on a hard-body model's body, complete with cleavage.

Looks like she put some real work into it but she still didn't get the colors right. Should I email her and tell her it's an obvious fake?

I personally probably wouldn't bother ........ what would be the point besides to be critical?

Now on the other hand ..... if you are still attracted to her because of her face and her personality that she's revealed in her profile and have the realization that she's probably got a "real" body which is she is maybe in the process of changing - then I'd say go ahead.

Truly when you think of it ....... if someone is dedicated to changing their bodies ..... 6-12 months time will see some major changes ............................ so maybe she's a work in progress.

Just keep speaking your mind! Hell, I don't agree with everything you say either, but I don't hate you for it, I respect you for it.

There are a lot of of mental midgets out there and don't let them get to you!

Don't you just love the delete button, could be the best invention ever!
