Well... let's see... my most recent photos were taken for my mortuary college graduation. I had this idea, the funeral director post, very serious and educated - looking. It worked, maybe made me look a little older. All I know, is hiding a smile can be a gift... because if it's nice, and you show it unexpectedly... than it's a knockout. P.S.- Most people are on this site so they have more of a reason to smile.

i dont like to try and make myself something that im not for the camera.. the only way someone will see my smile is if they make me laugh or give me a reason to smile.. pictures are meant to capture the moment.. so i dont like having fake pics.. its not cause im so focused on looking "tough" or "bad ass" .. this is how i normally am..

I have some smile ones, some weird ones, and some really weird ones.

Why do most guys not smile? I have no idea. Maybe you are just imagining it...

Or maybe a great number of men feel they look better not smiling, maybe they are sad or lonely or some other way unfulfilled in life.

Maybe it just looks scary when some of us smile in the pictures.
I smiled once when they took a photo for my passport. Got frisked at every airport for 5 years after that.

The same reason every girl with a tongue piercing has a photo taken with her tongue sticking out. I just don't know.

Well mostly becasue the pix are taken by another guy for starters !!LOL
As for my pix that are in my profile yep they were taken by a guy also !!And very hard to smile and look sexy with another guy doing the picture taking !!LOL
Now I do have older pix's that were taken by ladies where I am smiling but then all you ladies would be upset as the pix wouldn't be a recent one !! So unless theres some pretty lady interested in takin my pix it's kinda hard to be looking at a guy who's snapin your pix &tryin too look sexy for you ladies !!

Smiling to a guy , is considered "Baring your teeth"

My beta male status shines through a lot more when I am smiling. I make that conscious effort to make sure I am not smiling and insure that my lower jaw is lowered and jutted out to make me look more alpha-maleish in photos... just as a favor for the ladies who would otherwise miss their chance to experience my studliness.

I have also been known to attach the prosthetic neanderthal forehead just for the sake of my art.

I dont like being in pictures let alone taking one of myself its not the tough image I want to portray but the smile is not as sincere as it would be if you were to make me laugh. I have decent teeth I just dont tendto show them in pictures I dont know why

My smiles are ugly. :( I'll only post pics of me smiling if it's far away enough to not really see it that well.

I sort of tried to smile a bit in my newest pics ( that I just took today ), but they look weird too...

some guys are not smiling because they tend to be ashame of thier smile showing thier teeth and if some have teeth missing that adds to it as well. I will state I have no teeth that are real in my head but the plates I wear are what I use. I just personally don't like having a picture taken. I never have even as a kid. And as a proir post stated it is different when you are caught laughing and smiling from a lovely lady doing the photo. When I do one of myself with a smile showing any teeth I feel the phony in it and it shows. Oh and I absolutely refuse to have one done with no teeth and laughing. See a lot of ladies want guys with all thier teeth so when I see that I just shun away from them. even tho when I had mine removed it was a matter of my life or. So I just tend to not smile for photos. And as like an earlier post the ones I do have are earlier and I prefer to use an up to date photo. Or the photo is with another person and I am not here to show any ex I may have had in the past.
