Re: Why does a lady hide her face?

If a lady chooses not to advertise her face, and reviews and other photos attract me I will often ask her to e-mail a G rated pic of her face.

If she's already got my references etc, there should be some level of trust established, both ways.

Meetings are often more about the fantasy, and small things can make a difference. What one person finds beautiful, others may think is simply ok.

For the same reason I don't like airbrushed photos, and often pass over ads where the photos look "too professional".

I would like to hear your opinions, and I mean your real thoughts on the subject. I hide my face; others do not. What are your thoughts on the subject? Would you prefer to see her face before you meet, or are you willing to wait?

Does seeing her face (providing it is beautiful, or at least attractive) make you more inclined to see her over that of a companion who does not show her face?

Oh, and what do you think of air-brushed photos?

I will only meet with providers that either show their face, or I read or speak with another hobbiest that vouches for their beauty. I have experienced "fright night" on too many occasions to go in blind.

I generally will not see someone who hides their face, unless someone I know in the biz says she is OK. I understand the reasoning used by people to do it but that is my preference, I like to spend time with a pretty girl (face and body) and like to know what I am getting before walking in and spending that kind of money.

Just my $0.02 tho...

who did not have face pics on their sites or ads, and so far, I have not been disappointed. I would rather see face pics, but if the reviews are good, and the guys say that she looks good, I'm okay with that.

Air-brushed pics...I'm more partial to candid shots than shots that make a lady look like she's in pain from posing all day in totally un-natural positions. I'd much rather just see a nice smile than a lady trying to give me that sexy look that doesn't seem to work most of the time. Just smile, ladies. A pretty smile goes a long way.

So I have to ask.
why is it that you require/request a lady to show her face yet we never ask for a picture of your face, body or otherwise.
we accept you as you are and go with what you tell us and what we percieve to be the real truth based upon a conversation or email with you and a previous provider if we are lucky and do the leg work. ( which takes time and energy by the way)

You have the very same right, when you
get to an appointment and then decide that maybe it was not who or what you thought it would be. You can be graceful about it and move on or make the best of it. I often read these boards and get the impression there are many gentlemen out there that think we should be grateful that you  have come to see us and should accept you as you are.. NOT TRUE.. it is about mutual companionship.. NOT A ONE WAY STREET. ( after thinking about it. not a street corner)

Would it be approiate for you to post a picture of your face on the net for your family, boss
and kids to see? I think not.. Do you deserve more respect then the lady? I think not either..

It has been my experience if you do you homework. check reviews and most importantly SPEAK TO THAT PERSON. you can get a feel for someone. Sometimes there is a surprise.

I think it shows a tremendous lack of respect for the lady if you expect her to put more on the line then you are willing to do yourself..

I have said this a million times.
you are twice my size, twice my strength, I allow you into my place and based upon a short interaction prior to our meeting I trust you. The least you could do is.. give to me some of the same general trust and respect...

Where the hell did you find any disrespect in my post? I said that I have seen ladies without face pics, and have never been disappointed. In fact, you can ask any lady about just how respectful I am. I did say that I would prefer to see a face pic, but nowhere in my post did I say that I require/request it. You might consider re-reading before you jump.

As for pictures of me, I did have one lady ask to see a picture one time, so I sent her one. She told me that I looked like Charles Manson. Didn't bother me at all, we had a wonderful date.

Have a sparkling day.

No dis respect and I am sorry..

That was not the message I meant to convey to you. My response was from many, many phone and email conversations.. with gentlemen who require me to send face pics and I refuse.. you can usually get a feel for someone based upon an ad and or how they speak, spell or present themselves in a picture or otherwise. Sometimes that is not the case. but, in keeping an open mind you still have to have some elament of trust from both parties..

my point is just that it is a two way street.

oops. I am sorry

please forgive me for sounding off and coming accross as an *itch..

Jessica, you have nothing to worry about. Any man, that has seen you, lets everyone know how good looking you are.
There are some instances where a guy spoke of how attractive a girl was, and she turned out to not be particularly attractive to me.

WOW! Ok for starters if I cannot tell by the pics I can see if I would like to visit a woman then just for me I am in the wrong hobby! Maybe need to skip to chess or something!

I respect women do not share face pics for whatever reason they have.

One reason is they could have a butta-face! They could also have a banging-bod so who cares! LOL

Plus, just for me, it is the second portion of the reviews I write that are the most important to me anyways! Can she bang!!!!!! hehe
And with enthusiasm dammit!!!!!!

Besides the 2nd most physically attractive gal I have hobbied with was absolutely my worst experience. My ATF is the most gorgeous woman I have ever seen which even if it makes me shallow is one of the reasons I adore her so much! She is Gorgeous, but she is GREAT too!

The 2nd most physically attractive gal is a personal trainer and she is truly gifted physically, OMG, but the most unresponsive woman I have ever been with period, end of story! I was wondering if she took a ruffi or something!!

Ok back on point, Jessica, got to share my opinion with you(not attacking mind you, but respectfully, completely disagree).

The Hobby is NOT Ashley Madison! This is not E-Harmony or Match.com. What I am getting at is I am 100% all for mutual pleasure and hope the ladies I have spent time with would tell you I am telling the truth.

There is one main difference in this supposed mutual companionship scenerio! If this is accomplished and I promise I give it EVERYTHING I got everytime, ok ok so lets say we both enjoy one anothers company to the max and we both leave with big ole smiles on our faces!

GREAT! Mission Accomplished! What is the difference though Jessica? The difference is I got a smile on my face and you got a smile on your face PLUS my donation!!!!!!!!!

So if this is not a one way street where the pleasure is concerned could you please take the time to explain to me when it comes to the donation why the fellas are leaving without their Benjamins?

Call me crazy but donating just to give a woman some pleasure doesn't really sound like a fair deal to me. That sounds more like marriage!

I mean if you PAY to go get a massage at a spa would you expect the guy or gal giving the massage to tell you this is about mutual companionship? If both happen to enjoy the experience great I suppose, but bottom line you are paying for a massage, right?

Not too sure you meant it exactly how it came across and like I said I am not trying to pick on you or pick a fight. Just as much as sometimes we might all like to forget it the hobby really does boil down to one person paying for a service and one person providing said service! If it is not do not ask for or accept donations and enjoy all the mutual companionship you can stand.

Shifterp OUT!

Why compensate then?

Actually the "rights" (wrong word for this discussion) are not the same. Yes it's important that there is mutual respect, but where one is compensating another for a service, the playing field becomes unbalanced. If it's about mutual companionship then there should be no compensation exchanged. If mutual companionship is achieved, then the lady gets a two for one bonus and good for her.

It's not a lack of respect to expect the lady to put "more" on the line than the man is willing to. Your comment about trust is true, but leaves out that there is a compensation component that motivates the lady to do that trusting.

All that being said, the lady should only do what's comfortable to her and can ask for whatever she chooses when pre screening. that's her business. Reality is that I doubt a lady will ask for photos of a client and such as it will reduce the folks that are willing to see her.

I agree with you about research and doing one's Homework (takes time as well), but doesn't discount one's desire to see the whole package before making a final call.

My $0.02

A lot of gal dont show their face because their privacy and safety which I truly respected..

But..They give us clue how they look like...EX: Blurred their face or side pic or something..Also, some of lady absolutely covered their face..But, shows amazing body...LOL

Well...I've seen some quality mature women who doesnt show their face on public. However..I never had dissapointed and actually I kinda like to see "SURPRISE" stuff..LOL

JMO..

If a lady chooses not to advertise her face, and reviews and other photos attract me I will often ask her to e-mail a G rated pic of her face.

If she's already got my references etc, there should be some level of trust established, both ways.

For the same reason I don't like airbrushed photos, and often pass over ads where the photos look "too professional".

I THINK men want to see our face- and i use to show mine being that i visit here. BUT THE RISK OF GETTING KNOWN IS NOT WORTH IT TO ME anymore. yes calls came in faster but not worth risk of family n friends seeing. airbrush everything but your smile or just crop head off pic.

After reading all of this...I think there is a simple solution.  I choose not to show my face because I have an active "real" life.  My life will never revolve around sitting in a hotel waiting for "the next one."  So naturally, I am not going to risk it.

I've done this several times: once a gentleman is screened properly and he's requested to see a photo of me, it's not a problem.  Sometimes it is fun to exchange photos anyway once you have that comfort and safety established- although I would never ask for one from my client.

Plus, I think that in some ways from the way a woman carries herself on boards, on her site, the quality of her photos, etc...you can get an idea of whether she will be hideous or not!  Of course- I haven't been on the other end! :)

Ah...and as far as airbrushed- I'm against it.  I have a great photographer luckily...but I wouldn't want to mislead anyone about my body/looks either!

I would hide mine; the internet is forever. Pattern-matching programs are good and getting better.

But, to me, the most important body part is the gray matter between the ears.
