We so much about how agencies and even providers use fake pictures, etc. to try and pull a fast one from time to time.

I was wondering if some guy ever described himself as an Adonis, or even sent a phony picture and then looked like Methussela when he showed up?

Maybe he thought this would increase his chances of getting to see a gal.

Older men tend do lie about silly shit, here are some of the things I hear almost in a daily basis:

(him) 'I'm hard like this all the time, since I was younger'
(me) smiling and thinking 'yeah, not before viagra was invented'

(him) 'I am my late 40s'
(me) smiling, looking at his dentures and thinking 'are you kidding me? more likely over 60'

Guys from certain ethnic groups lie or hide things from their background. An example:

(me) 'I do notice an accent in your voice, where are you from?'
(him) 'I am American, from Chicago'
(me) 'and your name is?'
(him) 'Richard'

I make the appointment and when I open the door I get guys who are clearly not Americans.

It happens a lot with Asians, Indians & Caribbeans.

Why lie about your heritage if you are not able to pull it off without looking like a fool to us?

I tell providers my real name because I don't want to keep up with an alias. I get tickled at how often in conversation a provider will say her real name as she relating a conversation or an event with friends.

I try to stay within the bounds of the hobby and continue to use her "stage name" because I know that is important. I for the most part simply tell the truth or choose not to tell something.

That way I won't entrap myself. Hell, I can hardly keep up with this conversation much less one I had several days or weeks ago.

...or his age other than some false ego gratification or trying to kid himself into thinking that it makes a difference to the lady that he is paying.

Some gals don't see foreign men so I can see why a guy would lie and simply hope that the lady doesn't slam the door in his face once she realizes that she has been deceived.

Good question!

In my experience, I have only had pictures sent to me a few times.  These were not to show off an exceptional body but rather to clue me into a disability without coming out and saying it.  One jumped out as soon as I read your post, I had a gentleman from Georgia sent me a photo to let me know he was in a wheelchair.  He turned out to be a true sweetheart and really great looking (and skilled!) guy.  I think it is wise to let the lady know what she’s working with, in that situation.  Also, sending a picture if you are of a differing race isn’t a bad idea either.  While I am an equal opportunity provider, lol- there are many who are not (and that’s rightfully their choice), and this probably would save time, energy and hurt feelings for all parties involved.

In my personal life, I have had men randomly find my personal email accounts and send all sorts of pictures.  To be frank, if a man sends a picture of his body or his Johnson, I am totally repulsed.  While many women are attracted to super-ripped men, I am not.  I like the ex-football types with a bit of meat on their bones.  A little belly and broad shoulders are much more my speed.  As I’m typing this I realized, I just like real men.  The gym rats and manikins don’t do much for me.  Also, skill level is not conveyed with a picture and my first reaction would be to assume the guy has only looks to offer and no more.  No thanks, as many of you have expressed- I’d take a 6/9 over a 9/6 any day.

One thing men do lie about habitually- marital status.

I tell people I'm french, but I have no fucking clue what I am...

lol

I get those kind of pics too.

For me, if I'd give up the awesome guys I meet on here for a real boyfriend I'd be faithful to, he has to at least have the body of an Adonis, the sexual prowess of a pornstar and high intelligence. Failing that, I'm content to hang with the sweeties I meet on here cuz I have a TON of fun with them!!!!

... but I've been mistaken for Italian and Polish (by the girls mother's who happened to be Italian (or Polish) and was hoping ...), Mexican (when I'm in Mexico), Hawaiian (at least it is close), as well as all the other close Asian nations.

It usually doesn't come up, but if asked, I will say American born Chinese. So, for Asians, if there is an issue, is it more likely to be a race preference issue (asian vs. european), or a culture issue (USA vs. foreign born)?

Until the providers pay us, how we look can hardly be called bait and switch. Unless of course a provider publishes minimum stats for hobbyists that she will see.

  I am a fairly large guy, 6'5" 245 and I have had a couple of ladies express concern, which on meeting turned out not to be an issue. But in my experience as long as we are clean, considerate and polite our appearance really doesn't matter. If those presidential portraits are in good shape it all just seems to work.

LOL some funny replies here
It does happen more so than not .. Why? IDK why anyone feels the needs to   portray  to others to be something or someone  or look one way when they are total opposite .

1-One thing that gets me is the men who enjoy playing  "dress up" and  "greek" (on them) and they will beat around the bush  prior to setting up a meeting because they are unsure of how to let the lady know these are things that interest them.
2- A 70 yo with more "natural" stamina than a  30 yo.
3- The one who wants multi pops who has significant health issues that require tons of meds that  then cause  you know what !!!
Hmmmm.. I will think on this one a little more . I am sure there is other  situations that urk me when it comes to  bait n switch  guys.

I almost always  get a photo from a new friend prior to meeting . I know other ladies that require a photo prior to making the decision to meet for the first time .
I think it is a great idea to know who may show up at the door .

No, but I had a guy say that he has all kinds of money and then when I get out there, he doesn't have anything.  Not even gas money for me to get back to where I traveled from.  Talk about a scam.  In fact, it happened to me yesterday, but I managed to finesse 100 out of them for wasting my time.  

I hope you meant, "out of him".

Being of mixed heritage myself (chinese/Italian) I am mistaken for all sorts af different races. Usually it's something like "I have a friend who is _______ are you _____ too? I quit really caring years ago.

It is funny though. To my American friends, I am Asian, to my Asian friends, I am American.

It used to matter a lot more to me, I used to be particulary offended by the term Asian-American. I am not Asian-American, I was born here and I resent the hyphen, but it's really a battle that isn't winnable, and really isn't worth fighting.

... and I still get mistaken for others.

I think it is because I was born and raised on an American diet, and have the frame of an American, and not a typical small Chinese.

No, it was a them.  It was 2 guys which I will do a session with, but not for free.  lol

That's even worse. I am glad you can still laugh about it.

but the fact that you're not five foot tall with an accent might have something to do with it. lol

...when doing online dating, I've had many lie about their height.  A few about age, but most men when "dating" fib about their height.  

Conclusion:

Women about weight
Men about height
