| | Decorum At Our Age...Page 2 of 3 (1, 2, 3) | | It seems no matter the photos you post, some people want to see more. Maybe those guys/girls are just cutting to the chase. Whatever works for them, good luck and they can sort out all the palaver after they meet. :) | |

I have to ask other posters - with all this breast enhancement, eight inches of cleavage on show, and hipster pants with short tops to display tattooed and navel ringed muffins, what are our young women wanting? Or am I just age-challenged jealous? | |

Posted: 12/7/2006 11:19:59 PM | In every picture I've ever posted of myself, I've always used a picture with my bust dressed in a shirt and NEVER with a bra of any kind.
Are people being just as judgmental about me?

Posted: 12/8/2006 7:55:19 AM | Hey, if you got it...flaunt it. I've always said that...not necessarily lived by it. I was much much shyer when I was younger.
To those who show skin and it looks good...well,  I like a little eye candy from time to time. I read in another post some guy admitted putting these "skin" pics on his fav list just so he could look...never intending to write as they are usually on 300+ fav lists (probably for the same reason). I still can't find one particular proud male who was "our" age and he looked FINE!
However, I must admit...I'd probably never ever write one of these guys (definetly not one of the gals...not my flavor). I agree with an earlier post...we can only imagine what they are seeking. Its funny when I hear the "Booby" girls complaining about being treated as sex objects. Silly boys...don't you know their advertising what great mothers they would be...your offspring will never go hungry | |

Posted: 12/8/2006 9:43:03 AM | | OP, perhaps to her this is erotic...while to others it might not be. While I agree with you that some pictures may send the wrong idea...who's really the one in the wrong, the woman posting the picture or the man perceiving them in a way that may not have been meant? Now, you have some tasteful pictures on your profile, and though one can see cleavage in one of them, they're not exploitative, at least IMO; but they still have a sensuous appearance to them, while also having a flirty, cute and sweet side to them. Some might take them in a way you didn't mean, while others may not...And aren't all of our pictures meant to convey who we are and attract (or not attract) people in one sense or another? | |

Posted: 12/8/2006 10:43:35 AM | Damselinnodistress makes a very good point: Maybe those guys/girls are just cutting to the chase … they can sort out all the players after they meet.
If a woman were to post two identical profiles, #1 with a provocative photo and #2 with a nice head shot, the difference could be quite enlightening. With the goal of finding a man who is interested in a serious relationship, here is what I think might happen:
#1 attracts the most attention. Only men who think “if she’s like this in public and with every man, she’s not my kind of woman” stay clear. She gets to choose from the greatest number of men. It’s a daunting, time consuming effort to sort though all the responses because her photo will draw a lower over-all percentage of the type of man she’s seeking. When she finds Mr. Right, she’s missed out on meeting a few interesting men who only respond to standard ads.
#2 attracts less attention. The pool of men she attracts contains a higher percentage of the type of men she hopes to find, leaving out players and men who have gone down the nice-girl path and found it didn’t’ have the excitement they were seeking. When she finds Mr. Right, she will have done so without the benefit of getting to meet lots of interesting men.
Despite my personal judgment and following the reasoning above, I think provocative post # 1 is not a bad way to go if you play it smart and can handle the adventure. | |

Posted: 12/8/2006 11:17:18 AM | When I was on here under the pseudo-nym Coogah, the only great pic I had was of me in Vegas, smiling away at the supper table.
I posted that one, thinking the smile would be a good quality.
Oh, the emails!
I realized shortly after that the following:
1. Coogah is another word for Cougar and that could mean I am a Mrs. Robinson;
and
2. The dress was low cut and did show my cleavage.
Therefore, I have changed everything and am now just ^^Batgirl^^ with decent clothing on.
Decorum? You bet!

<div class="quote"> He's a HUNK! But, his horse has seen better days. If I wasn't going away for awhile, I would definitely consider pursuing him. So, it's just as well because I'd probably get rejected.
Muskoka,
I don't care if you are 86, I hate Lima beans too so we have a starting point. The Kid wouldn't reject you, even if you don't like my horse. There's just one little thing: Where the heck is Muskoka?

Posted: 12/9/2006 7:08:05 AM | | It's really just advertising isn't it? Imagine the scenario. I click on "my matches" and what happens, instantaneously 36 profiles pop up. Which one do you think I'm going to click on first? The one well written? The one about the puppies? Heck no, it's all about the cleavage. Men like cleavage, I haven't done the research but I'm confident that statement is correct. Now if other guys are like me they are going to actually read the profile. If it's well written and I think I'm compatible then I just might send her a message. Of course the caveat is that all of her profile photos are revealing then I would take a pass, that's sending out a completely different message in my mind. | |

If someone chooses to feature another part of the body besides the face,
which is what we usually accept as identification, they certainly give the immpression of being one dimensional.
Have wondered how the first meeting would go,
some guy wandering around Tim's, drooling over the picture of cleavage in his hand,
sizing up every bump in the establishment,
as he looked for the mammaries of his dreams.
when they do meet, the only thing she would learn about him would be,
whether or not he had a full head of hair.. | |

thanks for being so honest....when a man wants to get laid, he looks for T&A, when he wants a LTR, he looks for something else. The good-ole Madonna-Whore Complex!  | |

Posted: 12/9/2006 12:33:21 PM | I've seen various pictures which only show body parts.. legs, etc.
I wonder if these women have low self-esteem?
I'm a man, and yes, I like cleavage.. but I prefer a woman who has a personality and intelligence... Yes, it's great if she has a bit of cleavage as well.
But I'll take the personality, smile, intelligence, over the body parts. | |

Posted: 12/9/2006 4:29:59 PM | What's wrong with that is she doesn't feel she is attractive from the neck up..
She thinks her boobs will get her the attention she desires, once the door is open, they will be so enthralled by her tattas that they wont notice the sagging skin, or the wrinkles.. ~sigh~ | |

What's wrong with having it all in one person?
Maybe I'm too simple...or greedy....but wouldn't it be nice to have both T&A and a long-term relationship with the same person?
It doesn't have to be just one or the other, does it? Maybe the Madonna and whore are more compatible than we think.

Posted: 12/10/2006 6:05:53 AM | | First is that there is not a guy around that dosn`t take a second look. Sure its an eye catcher or more to the point advertising. Every horny hung-up and desperate guy will reply to it as fast as he can. If thats what they want to attract, its a free site and in todays day and age you see that everywhere,TV, billboards, excetera.. I think that if you want to advertise to the world thats your right, but if your looking for that right person it should be done on a much more personal venue. You can sell the world sex anytime, but an honest relationship is built privately. | |

Being overly devepoled myself, thats the last thing I want to do is draw attention to my chest.
AGREED!!!.... Altho I have a partner now, my profile pics are the same now as they have ever been.... and the most common one that I use as a primary pic is where I am in a coat, leaning over.... on purpose, as I got tired of men contacting me because of my chest. The most common comment I get is that my pics don't do me justice.... and I am fine with that, as I wanted someone who was willing to go the distance to get to know the person on the inside.... and it worked!

Posted: 12/10/2006 2:42:50 PM | it may just be me but if i'm looking for someone for a long term, i don't think it will be with someone who figures that one of her important attributes to draw a partner is the size of her breasts. (not that i wouldn't look and drool abit....)
i have one picture posted, it is me on the day i joined or the day after, if i shave my fur i'll post another. but anything else no point. | |

Posted: 12/10/2006 3:31:46 PM | LOl...luv the comments so far, all good tee hee...
see this pic?, this was taken a couple of years ago when my daughters wanted to make MaMa sexy, omg...I did it, had fun dressing up etc. and goofing off but as embarrassing as this pic is, it is what it is and it's exactly who I am.
When I first joined POF I only had my headshots to place on my profile, again, my daughter took them (she talked me into joining and is a very active member hmmmm...lol) and they came out aok...but truth be known all I had on was my jammies and after she snapped the first couple of shots (yuck) I decided to throw my leather jacket on for 'Decorum' lol...but who would know if I didn't tell them right? This one here and the couple others I have were placed on a little bit later and yuppers they are a little 'old', not alot but they are all I have...funny thing is almost as soon as I put it as my Main Image I got 'mail', 2 funny and answered, I was accussed of perhaps being deceptive cuz of it being a pic of me a few years back, so what?, I know it's goofy, tiz the season so the background is right ...it's all in good fun I figure but when and if a person is seriously using their photos to attract the opposite sex and submit some revealing shots of themselves then complain cuz of the bad attention they are receiving well...I don't think it takes a rocket scientist to be able to be your own critic and we are our 'worst'...lol...I know I am, especially at this age.
I definitely have a good idea of the type man I am seeking but that doesn't guarantee that I am going to get exactly what I want rofl...I think it's ok to have some suggestive shots on your profile but let's be real, you need to have your net ready for anything that you may catch.
p.s. I think it drives a man nutso when you whisper exactly what you have or don't have under your dress...this pic here is your guess lol...at my age teasing, getting teased and compliments are all good for I'm not dead and buried yet.
Keep em shaking and do what makes you feel good girls! we only go around once. | |
