FabSwingers.com forum: Observations....

My observation of the day is:

When you have a single profile, why do some folks feel the need to put photos on their profile of other people?

Is it the action shot thing? So people know you can suck a cock or lick a lady garden? Surely a profile is advertising the person whom it belongs to? Don't people want to see that person rather than randoms they've played with in the past?

Perhaps (read more than likely) it's just me but when I see a profile with graphic photos of people doing naughties with faces blurred and bad angles it just makes me want to laugh/cringe/shudder* and I don't really get what's appealing about it? I'm sure the fact that we're all on a swinging site, mostly for sex, it's a given that we're actually sexual people and really when you're advertising yourself as a single, is it necessary to provide proof that you can actually take part in sexual activity with visuals?

I understand that (total generalisation) men are more visual than women but when I see a profile of a single bloke with the cock making pokey (more often than not without a hat!) with a girlie, all the while the blurb says "safe sex... blah blah blah" there's not a chance in hell I'm going to engage in anything sexual with them. Yeah, yeah, that was my ex-girlfriend - really? So why the hell do you have a pic of your ex on a swinging site when you're trying to find new people to swing/have sex with?

I realise I'm incredibly picky... but it's a total turn off for me. Tasteful! I like tasteful!

So there you go... that's my observation of the day! Do you have anything to add or an observation of your own?!

*sometimes all three!

We're of the same opinion. Our profile (when active) shows us as we want other people to see us, not us in action with other people as that is a private matter between us and the people we play with.

absolutely agree with you on the action shot thing..... actually while we are at it, can i add one bugbear of mine... unless you have multiple cocks, do you really need multiple cock pics.. from every conceivable angle...

I'm torn, as I believe people should have what they please on their own profiles, and who am I to criticise.

That said, personally, I find it off putting seeing multiple female faces chomping on some blokes knob on his profile, or his head burined between some woman's crutch. The bareback shots with him and his "girlfriend" do make me shudder. I won't even go there with the multiple cock shots with cum dripping from the end. Yuk!

I totally agree... people can have whatever they like on their profile. It was merely an observation as the thread title states.

I'm curious why others think that having third parties on a profile would make them more/less appealing to others.

Sometimes it's cool to make conversation and get other people's views on things that I notice... tis what makes forums go round!

Im with sassy on this one, im also torn.

However two single guys on here that i regularly meet (who have 'action shots as both avatar and multiple pics) get an amazing amount of meets, so i guess it doesnt put all women/couples off??

We have them on our profile and like to see them on others, maybe we are just perves

We have found though we have never had a "no show" from someone that does have a few shots from other meets on there profile.

I think that's a fair observation DirtyGirl, but it is surprising how many people ask for an action picture or a cock shot (at least as many as those asking for a face picture). This suggests that there are a lot of people out there that base some of their selection decisions on such pictures.

Of course... that's why I said it's probably just me!

I can totally get the perving over pics thing... it's not a surprise that others are of the view that action shots are great. I think (read know!) that I'm fairly odd in the visual things that get me off. I generally don't find looking at pics of people I don't know doing naughties does it for me. I guess it's a bit like porn... I'm never looking at the actual people... it's more about what they're doing (although I do confess to being a background looker!) - we're all different, I just wondered whether there were any others like me out there!

I understand totallty Dirty.

Nothing makes me puke more than opening a message to see a cum covered anything.

What is fantastic in real time isn't so good to linger on ....

Essentially I want to see / hear the PERSON I am meeting. Cock is secondary.

I have NO interest what so ever in the females they send to my inbox ...all ugly with straggly hair , spotty fannies and that God I wish I wasn't fucking him look in their eyes.

Don't give me the bullshit that women don't like visuals...... we do. We just like good visuals. FFS will you all leave the bath n bog out of the pics.....hideous.

Tasteful, always tasteful, for me! I absolutely do not want to see any man I might meet having sex with someone else! Yuk!

And as to the man who insisted on posting (what I THOUGHT was a private picture) of me chomping on his cock .... words fail me! Thank feck he has left the site!

No it's not just you. I just think like most things on here, for everyone that likes something there's someone that dislikes it.

My wifes not a big fan of graphic pics either, it puts her off a guy if his previous experience is obvious to see, I guess part of that is not thinking of herself as just another notch on a bed post. A couple of well rounded verifications, some dressed and torso pics on the profile and a decent message will peek her interest more than lots of cock and copulation images

Im not keen on action shots particularly, they dont interest me. My eyes focus on the light shining on a blokes bald spot, or spots and redness from a too close shave etc. Thats not to say there arent any good ones out there, but Id be more interested in an arty type shot like everyone covered in gold body paint, than the pics Ive seen on people's living room floors.

I think a lot of the time its guys advertising the fact that women have actually met them.

We may meet a guy who has action shots, if hes a nice, friendly sort that I wish to play with, but I wouldnt look at his action shots, wouldnt bother clicking onto them, I never do. It doesnt turn me on, or make me really excited about playing with a guy cos ive seen him licking a woman whilst anothers sucked his cock.

If you have action shots then at least have other pictures just of yourself. And another turn off and I think worse, is if a guy has only other woman in a picture and nothing of himself, maybe a brief glimpse of index finger. Why do that?

One type of photo that puts me off are the 'creampie' shots.

They have me heaving immediately and reaching for the 'Back' button.

Not keen on action shots, and close up of open pussies!

I have pussy pics, however, they are hidden, and are only ever sent out to those I am likely to meet. I would not dream of having them on open display, eeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwww!

My view (Mrs R) is that I want to see the whole body, not just a few inches worth! Just checked our profile and realised Mr R has somehow managed to avoid the camera... not good as I've just been moaning to him that most couples have lots of photos of the female, but none or just a cock shot of the male. Come on guys, I'm not saying put a face pic on your profile but a full length body shot would be nice...

Action shots just don't do anything for me, pictures that leave a bit to the imagination are great... but hey, that s just me
