ha! Just changed my profile pic. The hamster's happy though.


I used to have a hamster called Basil (Fawlty Towers fans will understand this).

I loved that little fella :)

I swear he used to smile at me!

And really on a site like this that can make some peope feel bad. I get a lot of comments about how I would look better if I smiled. But the truth is I know my picture is being taken and unless someone screams smile(which normally looks fake) I just don't feel the urge. Besides I'm a mean, pushy, controling bitch....honesty in advertizing don't you know.

On the other side though, since it is a dating website, doesn't it make sense to have a flattering picture? That would be true on a vanilla website, I think it is equally true here. If your first thought on looking at a picture is " I wouldn't want to meet that guy in a dark alley", then you are probably not going to be interested in meeting the person. Especially if you are nervous about dating, let alone BDSM. No wonder so many people complain that they never meet anyone here.

Why do some people look so unhappy in their profile photos? After looking though profiles...I don't think I want to try this lifestyle any more...it looks boring and depressing.



You obviously haven't browsed any of the profiles of the 22 year old financial Dommes holding a fist full of cash.  They all look very happy. 

But seriously, there is an extreme variety of photos on this site.  Some people have cartoons for their avatars.  Others have animals.  Some (like yourself) only show one part of their body.  Others have photos that are not even of themselves.  So I wouldn't draw any conclusions based on the profile pictures.  Remember, the very nature of this site makes many people reluctant to post face shots.

Lastly, would you really give up on the lifestyle because peoples' pictures look depressing?  Really?  If you went to a sex website like AdultFriendFinder, and saw faces that didn't look happy, would you give up sex?  Or if you went to a culinary website and saw pictures that didn't look happy, would you give up eating?

Those may sound like extreme examples, but hopefully they help you see how silly your comment sounds.  Hopefully, you aren't really so easily swayed in your decisions.

Talk about a depressing dinner!

Seriously op, if you're feeling more depressed now than a few months ago, I would suggest you be evaluated for Seasonal Affectiveness Disorder. It sneaks up on us as the amount of sunlight dwindles.

Or just start taking one Vitamin D III pill (5,000 IU) daily and see if it helps.

You know, I was going to say that based on seeing that culinary delight referred to a few times in the forums, but didn't think I was well enough aquainted with the lady in question to errrr poke fun. So Mom's muffins it was!

At least my feet look a lot happyier than some of these profiles have seen. I've been thinking of changing it actually after reading message after message of "OMG FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTT <entire message>".
Hmm...what should I put in it?

Ok, small stupid question:

Why do some people look so unhappy in their profile photos? After looking though profiles...I don't think I want to try this lifestyle any more...it looks boring and depressing. :(
...
in fact, all my experiences with it has been boring and depressing...



If they smiled .. it might reveal that they havent brushed or flossed their teeth in 10+ years.

Hmm, that hasn't been my experience.  My experience has been more along the lines of::

But there are dozens of us worldwide that suffer from this terrible affliction, and we will not be ignored! Unite!

As I said I get told I should smile a lot, but(think about this for a second) this isn't a normal dating site(vomits at the thought of "dating") I am domme, hear me roar...meow...guys talk to me because they want to know if I have an edge to me. I do so I figure it might as well show in my pictures. Besides this isn't high school and my parents aren't paying for my pictures. I'm not smiling just because some guy said I should*does a little dance*

*oh* and no one asked but who would rather see stalker cry than smile? My vote is for bawling baby boy.
