Getting real sick of women on here saying they will not speak to someone, not reply to any messages, not anything, unless the guy first send a face photo.

Its so controlling.

Being on the end of such a demand is demeaning and belittling.

What do they think? That men are all ugly smelly awful people and 'they' are all perfect princesses?

Where all the normal people that can have a normal conversation with out completely controlling the other person?

I don't see it as an issue tbf, many of the single girls get hundreds of messages a day. And I think a level of mutual attraction is key to any meet.

Do what I do then, don't bother messaging and trying to strike up a conversation. Instead go to a swingers club and meet people that way, no need for a face pic then

You have to understand, here even obese women with missing teeth rule the roost simply because there are so many sad and desperate guys out there. So you either play to their rules or set your own rules and quite frankly ... the bar higher.

The worst thing is when the lady says you must send a face pic to get a reply but has zero photos on her profile herself. Don't get my wrong I have a face pic as my profile pic (granted it's a crap pic) but this site can be a bit of a hypocrisy

They’re not controlling you, as you don’t have to send a face picture, you have a choice. So those women also have a choice to respond to a message of a guy with a dick, body or blank picture on his profile.

I get messages, nowhere near as many women on here but to be honest I wouldn’t be interested in a guy who was hiding his face either.

You’re competing with a lot of guys for very few women on this site, all you’re doing is making it more difficult for yourself.

No one is forcing you to send one OP. Just message the profiles that don't ask that of people. It's not controlling either, it's called a preference.

You can choose to ignore the request and not message. I don't see it as controlling, more that they would rather see if there is a physical attraction, before engaging in ping pong messages. It helps cut through the red tape and allow for there not to be potential wounded egos further down the line, if they didn't fancy that person. Best get it out of the way from the off

Everyone should have either a face pic on their profile or some pic in general. Seems mostly from whenever I've been looking to meet people that it's the people with zero pics that demand the face pic for "verification purposes" even though the site has 2 types of verification

There are other ways to send pictures. And for this purpose, it whittles down the onslaught of messages. If you can't respect a simple request, can you respect their consent later?

I think you ladies would feel very different if all they guys on here demanded a photo of your cunt just to say hello...

In case they don't like it. I mean there has to be mutual attraction.

And if they don't like it and don't find it attractive... well not point in continuing.

How does that sound?

Make you feel good does it?

You are comparing a face picture to a crotch shot? To be fair, I'd prefer some men to do that. It would be great for the filtering process

I came on here expecting not to get far. If I hadn't liked it, I would have left.

Men message me every day demanding to see my face, genitals, action shots, and more, trying to control me in intricate detail. I laugh at them and block them.

If I got no attention, I can masturbate.

You could actually spin it around and see it as you being the one who is controlling, by trying to dictate what women should be allowed to put on their profile, then belittling them as not being normal, because their requests differs from what you think is an acceptable request

I still can't see the issue. Under these circumstances I'll negotiate with someone about possibly having sex with them.

If you don't like those circumstances, don't message me.

You have your own circumstances. You can decline too.

It seems a fair and reasonable request.

Why would you translate it to be some kind of demeaning ransom demand?

Would you have a comfortable conversation in everyday life with someone wearing a balaclava?

Of course not!!!!

No man on here ever says it to the ladies.

Many people on here are insecure or very private. The dialogue and the trust should come first. Then the photos and maybe meeting.

You have no idea what goes on in our inboxes. I get demeaning demands every day, sometimes many times a day.

"face pic or no reply" doesn't really compare to the elaborate demand scenarios I get sent.

You can choose not to message profiles like that. I can't filter out messages that make my skin crawl (short of closing my filters or my account). And it's different. I make it clear I don't like that, they're violating my wishes. Profiles that make demands aren't violating yours, you just don't like their conditions.

But now as part of a couple I get to see the other side. Loads of messages from guys.. 'how are you?' etc. This despite us showing as not looking for single men...

No men say it, because there are far more men on here than women. If the roles were reversed, I'm sure there would be quite a few men who would place demands also.

Given the nature of the site, attraction is paramount. Even on dating sites, people want to see who they are talking to. Imagine talking and getting to know someone, only to find you have zero attraction towards each other when, you see each other? It just seems like a waste of time was invested in that person. Unless they are both seeking friendship and nothing more.... That's when I believe attraction shouldn't play a part

I don't see it as controlling, I see it as they just want to know straight off if there is an attraction.

There's no point chatting if you don't like what you see. It saves wasting time.

I'll have a bit of a chat before asking if they have a face pic they can share. As long as they do, I'll send my pic when I ask for theirs.

I used to ask for a pic & send mine & then I'd get some replies saying they don't have a face pic on fab or that they're not single so won't send a pic

Even when I explain how to add one direct from their phone, they still sometimes avoid sending a pic. So I won't send mine or keep chatting unless I'm going to get one back

Imagine the scenario, you’re messaging a woman neither of you have sent face pictures, it’s gone on for quite sometime, plenty in common so much so a meeting is partially arranged. She sends a face picture, very nice you think, asks for one in return, which you then send, what if she then blocks you or messages you back and says she doesn’t find you attractive enough ?

Wouldn’t you feel a bit let down ? Surely it’s better for you that there is a mutual attraction, rather than spend time on a lost cause due to lack of attraction for both of you.

People whom I have had normal 'getting to know you conversation' with either found we did not 'click' and were not looking for the same thing ....or we did click. And we met.

That has never been my experience.

People whom I have had normal 'getting to know you conversation' with either found we did not 'click' and were not looking for the same thing ....or we did click. And we met.

People. Not a meat product.

I'd understand if they were asking for cock pics. But they want face pics. Seeing you as a piece of meat would surely mean they only wanted your cock?

You know they aren't holding a gun to your head and you don't have to message these people but an early face pic if you make the first move is only polite and no time is wasted chatting if no attraction.

Yeah, that's the opposite of treating someone like meat. They care about your face!

I actually think your approach would put me off more, in all honesty. That you would consider meeting someone without knowing what they looked like. It feels too much like blind date

We don't have it on our profile (currently hidden as not looking to play) but if I am going to spend my time chatting to someone with the view of meeting then I have to feel a level of attraction to them, and for me that means liking how they look. I have to look at their face, want to kiss them, etc. What their cock looks like is secondary for me.

Sorry if that's shallow or anything but it's true.

If someone won't send me a face pic then that's up to them but I won't continue chatting without one. I'd send one in return and fully accept I'm not everyone's cup of tea either. Mutual attraction is important.

Everyone has a choice to reply to me and I don't demand it. But I can choose whether to carry on chatting or not. Tbh it's the same with the level of effort put into the messages as well. A simple "wanna shag" isn't going to get anywhere with me, I don't work that way. Effort = results for most people and that goes both ways.

"You could actually spin it around and see it as you being the one who is controlling,

No. You can't.

It is they who introduce the 'do this or else'. Period. Not the men.

No man on here ever says it to the ladies.

Many people on here are insecure or very private. The dialogue and the trust should come first. Then the photos and maybe meeting.

We have feelings and deserve respect.

For us if there isn’t an initial attraction then what’s the point in wasting ours and their time?? We get so many messages a day there simply isn’t time to get to know everyone on the site, we aren’t bothered whether the guy sends a face pic or not that’s up to them.. but we won’t reply without one

Don't you only have to click one button to attach a picture on messages? It is really that hard to do? If you want to talk to a woman it is really bothersome for that person to see whom they are talking to, they are not talking to your penis.

When you meet someone in a club or pub they are not faceless. Why would anyone in their right mind arrange to meet up with anyone who has no face photos on here is beyond me, if you intend to have sex there's a high chance that you will be looking at his or her cum face sooner or later

OP with an attitude like that you clearly need to go back to Fab school - people are entitled to ask for what the heck they like on here - no-one is forcing you to comply, in fact if you don't like something on a profile just move on to one that does appeal, no point getting worked up over those that don't.

To your point though, surely you can see it would be better to establish an attraction to someone early on than get chatting, build a rapport and then find that you don't find the person attractive? That's all anyone (men included) that asks for a face pic in their profile is doing.

So when you message a woman it’s only her Profile and not her pictures that you’re interested in ? If she hasn’t got any pictures to view, you would be happy to chat and if you get along just meet ?

Or do you look at her pictures if you like what you see message, isn’t that treating her like she’s a piece of meat ?

You have a choice: you do not have to comply. You (or anyone else) is not being controlled.

People run their profiles how they wish. They've already made their choice (to automatically not open or reply to messages without face pics) and they're advising Fab of this choice.

It's quite simple really.

Same with me, I get love your pictures, fancy a meet ? The majority comment on my pictures in messages. I have no doubt if I hid them all the messages would dry up.

I will admit, this thread has made me laugh a little.

Men becoming so indignant when a profile asks them to do something they can easily ignore and walk away from!

It seems men in society really don't like being the under dog for once, where as women have had to endure it for years, hilarious

I never ask for a face pic. I often don't even look at one sent to me, I read the message and profile and decide from that.

I also dont send them. Once I'm friendly with someone I will allow them to see my friends only pics which have my face in them......

Thank you everyone for posting.

I do wish to be true to myself and I am more of a private person than some others.

I am not happy sending my face pic out to everyone I say hello too before I have even had a reply.

It could be my next door neighbour or a work colleague for all I know or even my boss.

I prefer to talk to someone and get a feel for them before I trust.

But I do agree that on here a lot of women feel they are in a position to call the shots.

Its just disappointing that some women on here have become controlling and demanding. That will not work for me. I am not that desperate for sex.

I would like to meet just one discerning lady for a regular meet.

So I will start seeing this as an opportunity to cross some ladies off the list.

group hug.

If someone’s shady about sending a face pic, it just makes me think they are hiding something or that they must think they are unattractive.

Nothing will progress without a clear face pic swap, as others have said there has to be mutual attraction.

It's your call entirely who you send your face pic to OP, the way to look at it is if someone is asking for something that doesn't fit your own personal criteria then they're not a good match - no point bemoaning it, they're just as entitled to their criteria as you are yours - just move on to someone that does match.

Also what you see as demanding and controlling is not necessarily the case, and ask yourself this - which came first, the people who have strict criteria they use in their profiles to filter out people or the demanding and entitled people who have unrealistic expectations and bombard them with ridiculous messages? It's very much a chicken and egg, vicious circle kind of thing.

Perhaps if people (and lets face it, it is mostly men) started having a better attitude, approach and realistic expectations, maybe some of those you see as being demanding and controlling wouldn't see the need to stress their criteria in quite the same way.

How is this even remotely a problem?

God forbid someone wants to know if they are attracted to you.

Just last week I was flirting with a woman who immediatley blocked me after I sent a face pic, based on that impression alone, imagine if we'd met up having never seen my face, no doubt she would have run a mile

It makes it easier for everyone, and shows you're actually interested in saying something other than 'U wanna fuk'
