Some people post really odd pictures of themselves on the forums. Why is this so? I will be the first to admit that the photo of me on this site is not a very good picture. I don't have a camera that links to the computer. I don't have recent photos of myself. So - I had to "cut" a photo of me out of a group photo - hence the poor quality. However, at least it gives someone an idea of to whom they are writing, when they write to me. Why do some people post odd photos? L.

The same way you were able to justify and explain your choice of picture...maybe they did the same...and that "odd" picture was the result???dunno

So Wikked - why did you post this new picture of yourself on the site? You were not lacking a computer friendly camera and you have recent photos of yourself. You are such an intelligent person and you seem to me to be a really nice woman. Why post such a picture of yourself?

Sincerely,

Lorraine.

Hi Lorraine...yes i have several different types of photo's that i post..i change them often...but of late i post more of this type of pic to prove a point...

Men can post any picture they want on here and it is not "censored" in any way...but from the minute a woman posts a picture she is immediately judged by that...

I thank you for the lovely compliments...but let me ask you do you think that my profile pic makes me any less intelligent or nice???
It is actually what i look like..all my pics are fairly recent and
I have even had the opportunity of meeting a wonderful group of CS friends this past summer from the States and Canada and they can tell you...that is what i look like...every day...but thankfully they were also able to see what lurks behind that appearance as they got to stay at my home with me for a period of time...
They are the ones who actually encouraged me to stop worrying about what other people think and just be myself...

I will be honest and say that yes sometimes there are certain pics that make me wonder and annoy me somewhat but I also respect their choices. It is their business what they do and what they post and present themselves as. Also we should remember to never judge a book by its cover.

If I don't like seing a certain picture I just don't look at it plain and simple. Just like if I see a thread or post that does not appeal to me then I do not answer.

Everyone has their own preferences and there is nothing wrong with that.

we all should post pics that reflect who we are... wikked to me seems very sensual and loves her body, therefore she posts pics that reflect that..

Yes Chuck I do...I like my body because its not "media perfect" to me it represents what women really are...

I've had four babies...and my stretch marks are my "badges" I earned them by being a mom and bringing a life into this world..

I'm rounded and curvy and cannot fit into a size 3...but i like the close i can fit into!

I'm 42 and what young women take for granted...I (along with many many women my age) had to work hard at...

So yeah...I like me!!applause

The pics I hate are the ones (usually of men) where they are frowning at the camera and look like mugshots. Seriously, who wants to respond to someone who looks like a creep, even if they have a great personality. mumbling
