Yeah but you would be able to send a face pic to a prospective meet wouldn't you? The OP is talking about people who don't have them to send.

Im really not sure, there is an option to keep them hidden even from private viewing and send with message. Ive had so many guys say they will email me them, one im not giving out my email and two what is the difference from putting it on here and emailing it. If i was going to do something sinister with it i could do it from email.

I understand descretion but surely they dont expect you to turn up to a meet blindfolded so you cant see them

It doesn't bother me showing my pic, as i have nothing to hide. I know i'm not everyones 'cup of tea', but i'd rather let them decide that from the off, rather than halfway through a conversation. Thats why i have one as my profile pic. (maybe thats why my messages get deleted) lol.

We have all our photo's fully public. To be honest, you can find us on all manner of porn sites around the net too, so what's the worry? We don't care about people seeing us ... in fact, we like it :P But to each their own

It is relatively common on some of the sites aimed at gay / bi men to see guys advertising things such as

'front door open. i am on bed blindfolded. just come in, fuck me and go. nothing expected in return'

People building glory holes in their own home for bi / married guys is also a quite common thing designed to retain some degree of anonymity.

Both scenarios are not for me, but I can see why they might be attractive to guys who struggle with their sexuality or are afraid that expressing it in an open manner may come back to haunt them.

Maybe because they're using images from Google? :D I have the safari plugin installed to google reverse people's images ... if they're images from years ago on a billion sites, I simply ignore those people as they're clearly using fake images. Especially if they tell you it's a new image. Our images are all over the web for sure, but almost all of the sites you can find them on, be it blogs, porn sites etc ... almost all of them can be traced back to the origin ... ie: us :D

I don't understand, why people hide their faces or even entire profiles but I guess it is a matter of free choice so good luck to one and all.

I don't understand why that would be a problem if the connection is made on here.

I show enough of my face that anyone who knows me would be able to identify me but I keep the full face picture to send when I choose.

This is true. A body pic isn't a worry, but a face pic, even one thatd totally normal and innocent looking with fabswingers and your user name stamped across it can, in the wrong hands, cause a problem for some people with certain jobs.

You could always easily set up an email address just for Fab.

It's not a problem to me as I will always send mine. But I can understand why some would be reluctant. I find that more understandable than withholding an email address which can easily be a disposable one.

Given you have to sign in to see anything but a blurry pic on someone's profile, I can't see the defense 'I can't because of work, etc.' ever holding water, as the only way your boss will find out is if he/she is a member too??

Exactly. I don't mind if they don't want to send me a pic via here, because I just won't meet them. I'm not giving out my number or private email just to see a pic.

It is a risk we all take - and, how would they get access to his profile unless he allows it. As someone has said - this is not blind date.

If I am going to meet someone I base that partly on the face I see. I see no face, I see no point in showing mine. Or in arranging a meet.

Most on here do the same thing - send face pics on request. If you can't do that then it is going to be very hard for you to get a meet - be prepared for a lot of disappointment.

I dont have a face pic on here and dont intend to ....I have nothing 'to hide' either but if Im going to meet someone with a view to getting intimate then I would always exchange phone numbers as many many on here have advised prior to a meet taking place so pics can be exchanged there. I don't put one on here because even when 'private' it shows on your updates to those on your friends list and I don't want everyone to see me only those I choose to. As with everything else, people will accuse those like me of 'being fake', 'having something to hide' etc etc etc but at the end of the day it is my choice how I manage my profile as it is other's so don't always assume there is an underhanded reason behind not showing a face pic on a site like this.

Possibly we should all accept that everyone has different parameters and because one person's is at odds with another's does not automatically mean either is wrong nor mean anyone is looking out for more than their own idea of security. If a person won't meet anyone who has no pic on here then so be it, their choice surely, personally I wouldn't meet anyone who demanded one so it's a catch 22 but there are all sorts on here and the secret is finding those of a like mind to yourself I imagine.

Not necessarily- if your face is known as someone who works in a school an anonymous tip off to that school can cause some grief. Not necessarily sacking. Especially in a church school!

Personally I wouldn't like to have to discuss my sex life with management and our Vicar!
