ORIGINAL: GeekyGirl quote:
My advice is for someone 5'11 and 225 is don't show your photo I am 8inches shorter than him and only about 20lbs lighter, so I disagree with your statement. I wouldn't go so far as to ridicule him for his size. I think what's he's doing is despicable but I'm a good 90lbs overweight myself, and it ain't gonna keep me from showing my bod! Bringing weight into it is hitting below the belt, even when dealing with a sleazeball. I'd be pretty hurt if someone told me I shouldn't show any sexy pics of me unless I lose weight. For the record, I find larger men quite attractive and I think if I was a domme, his size wouldn't bother me. What bothers me more is that the picture is poor quality and taken from an unflattering angle, indicating that he is not taking special pride in presenting himself to his prospective domme. What I'm speaking of is in terms of "marketing." The market for a sub-male is far less than a sub-female, and to show one's shape in that kind of photo is simply "poor marketing." Of course even for a woman here in CM-land what sells well is a bit different than what goes over well in vanilla-land, which is likely why more BBW are here than the averages out there. Better marketing for bigger and self-confident woman works better here. So we are speaking of apples versus oranges and his "product" has a variety of reasons for not going over well, and his photo is just one key one of many. As the ONLY photo he shows it is cheap and slezy looking, and matches his profile in general. No wonder few or no takers. BTW, I have been a bit bigger in the past and in general the takers are far more then I am at the size I am today, or I would not be able to wear what I do in my own photos. The fact that I could weigh more than I do (143 lbs at 5'9", size 11/12) shows I value my own appearance and health, and both are better for it. Again, it comes down to marketing and I market myself in various ways, all with due respect of course. And the best to any others that are successful in their own presentation choices, but if one comes here and bitches about how no one is turned on to their profiles then ALL parts of it comes into some due consideration....photos included. BTW, it's not his weight per sec but that it doesn't look good on him and just comes across as a middle aged guy looking to get a few cheap thrills while cheating on his wife. A dime a dozen in my book. chirssy
