What is with men sending selfies with their phone completely blocking their faces ..... My profile states a selfie. Which means a FACE photo not a back of your phone photo hahaha

Anyone else want to try explain the logic behind this since it's in private mail and not asking to post on public page?

My issue is that no men seem to smile in their photos. Why does everyone have to look moody and miserable? I want to see a cheeky smile and glint in the eye

100% this. Discretion is key on this site but I'm not into fucking someone I'm not physically attracted too.... But iv noticed 95% of people on here dont get this. Clearly people don't read profiles.

Ah sure each to their own... I didn't mean to piss in anyone's cornflakes. The post was more about making people aware that a selfie is NOT a picture with your face blocked. Iv plenty of face pics upon request, but as practically everyone on here is hiding from someone (family friends work or even partners) we keep our faces private, until asked politely if they can see it

It's our prerogative to request what we want, have your own preferences and to assume that those who don't comply may not be as interested in our needs as those who do.

If they show disinterest in my needs early on, that's almost as much of a red flag as a time waster, failing to communicate to me.

I don't have success with the guys who send an obscured face pic, so I largely move on. For some it may be embarrassment, lack of confidence or fear of being caught cheating. I'd prefer honesty.

They can't operate a camera or read instructions. I wouldn't risk finding out if they know how to fuck.

I have teeth that I could eat an apple through a chain link fence with. They're straight and nice but just big.

Don't smile for vanilla pics much either but if I'm snapped on the sly I look ok

Just my opinion but I think it's a little unreasonable to expect a face pic with a first contact. I chat a little first and if theres an interest then I'd exchange face pics and only then.

I have messages females , couples on here. I have found often. That I will be asked for a face photo in first couple messages. My normal reply is send one first . I will send in reply. Have have females and couples say will only send once decide to meet.

So my thought to that is I send but have to wait for their face photo only if they decide to meet. ?

Now say no photos or all send.

Do you send your face pic out OP on a first message? Minus the huge purple emoji obviously.

I couldn't agree more. Also they need to get in the habit of taking lots at different angles then choosing the best one. My photos would look awful if I never smiled and took just a single shot. Present you best self.

It saves me time.... Why message someone for days when iv zero sexual attraction to them?? If I was to message first.... Then I send my face. But if I'm messaged first, why would I spend days getting to know someone I'm never going to meet? Makes zero sense to me!

No, it's just a waste of time to chat, then see a pic and not be attracted. It's a request, not a demand, people don't have to comply.

Here's the bit you're missing. Fab isn't like a dating site. Yeah people want to meet but privacy is a concern for many here.

Demanding a face pic at the outset shows a sense of entitlement and a disregard for the privacy of others. I would never send a face pic with the initial message nor would I expect it. If the conversation was progressing then face pics may be sent or exchanged.

But the idea of sending a face pic to someone that I probably have nothing in common with just doesn't work.

You say yourelf that you're only willing to send a face pic to the ' right person '. Why should you expect others not to have the same privilege?

She can ask for whatever she wants, though. Anyone can on their profile. Nobody has to comply if they don't want to. I've had guys send me a face pic (I don't ask) with a 1st message and then ask for one in reply. Er, nope. I will send one when I'm good and ready, ta. And he then has the CHOICE to stop talking to me. And vice versa.
