A stable state is stagnation. You can't stay at the top forever. From that you need to move higher up or you will roll down.
Development: what is considered as perfect at one time is looked as daft upon at another. Just think how they cured some diseases once upon a time. By driving out demons, to mention just one "perfect cure".
If you really want to make an acquaintance from scratch - not at work or in the neighbourhood or at friend's wedding - but from very beginning and if you are not prepared to wait for a lucky strike for ever, then here are a few locations where to look for women and where you certainly will be noticed:
1. A meditation / yoga class: one man per a dozen women.
2. Aerobics: one man per twenty women, but you need to be reasonably fit.
3. Dance class and you can find any level of difficulty and aesthetic - from classic to native to Latino to rock-and-roll to swing. A chronic shortage of men in all ages and shapes. They will eat you alive at the entrance.
Yes, I absolutely agree with it. The cover matters - it's an introduction to one's world. A picture has a vibe that you might like or dislike. A blank square has nothing.
Well... once upon a time I had my photo with a hat as the main picture and the moderation changed it to some other from my gallery, informing that the hat picture cannot be main. No explanation why. So I chose the second one - in the kayak -, that I consider represents me well.
Actually, I chose all those pictures because I think that they say something about me. Not only about my appearance from different angles, but about my character and interests. It's a visual introduction.
Of course, people are free to choose whether to use this feature. And they are also free to choose whether to explain their choices.
And yes, I agree that it's easier to recognize a poster with a photo and decide whether to waist time on reading their post.
You are quite a cliff in our times full of "influencers" of all possible kinds. How do you manage? Doesn't it feel lonely at times? Or is there a club for intractable minds? I'd like to become a member :)
I am aware of female profiles without pictures, but I am not interested in them, hence, the exclusion.
Gentlemen without picture, do your really look like the phantom image: a square singular chin, a reliable neck, a head full of hair?
Or do you fancy a number of chins and a scull like a billiard ball? In that case, the phantom is too flattering, the absence of the real photo is misleading and, actually, is a sign of a cowardly soul.
So what GULAG survivors are your personal favourite coaches in terms of keeping information hygiene? Shalamov? Razgon? Zhzhenov? Lihachev? Someone else?
But that takes time, quite a lot, doesn't it? And then you have to sift through all that long "scientific" words and then, as a reward, it turns out to be inconclusive. Isn't it simpler to go after a catchy slogan one finds on Facebook, especially if it's written in large letters?
