Hi Hobbyists,

"Please include a little information about yourself (age, race, pic would be great)"

I just saw this posted in an ad!! I would not personally send a pic, for I would need to blur it all! I don't want to be Blago's bunky @ this time!!! Hobbyist's would you send a pic?? Now, before the ladies jump all over me about this being a double standard, regarding my Password Protection photos thread, It is not!!! This is about hobbyist's protecting their Identity & not having a provider, who is new, getting mad & posting the pic on the Internet!!!

The woman in question is cute, but has discrimination issue!! It is her prerogative, but I only see women who are open to all who may be different!!

I have been conversing with a hobbyist and when I went to look his verification up I noticed that
he has his photograph in his profile. I told him it isn't a wise idea and he has not been back in touch.
Did I strike a nerve? I was only trying to protect him .

She was more of a "I showed you mine, now show me yours"  There were several reviews of her. So, not including the email chain, I sent an email with my pic, no other text. We hit it off and had a great time.  Yes, we all have filters and I appreciate people who tell you up front with what theirs are relative to the hobby.

Hi Angela,

On looking out for the hobbyist!!

BTW, I enjoyed the banter w/you in the other thread!!!

Hi,

This is why!!!

You have to email me for your password Charley!!! LOL!

XO

Hi Angela,

You're the second on my list!!

...you made me laugh today!

If this is indeed you, any French gal you see will soon be saying... "Its Twoo, its twoo!"

Thinking "Blazing Saddles"...

I sent a pic recently to a well known highly reviewed provider after much conversation.
This pic is one that can easily be found on my facebook
This was after verification so she had all the info to find me anyway!

I agree pics should NOT be sent, or required. You never know where they may end up. I have ppl who email me their picture and honestly it doesnt make a difference in whether I see them or not. I prefer great communication vs a picture.
