As a more romantically-oriented male who is in touch with his feminine side, it amuses me and slightly baffles me to see so many of my fellow males signing up for the new version of this site with dick pics as their profile pic. So I am curious to get some opinions from you guys, and insights into the male psyche. Why do you choose to visually represent yourself as a penis? I mean, obviously most of us probably don't want to reveal our faces here, unless we have really nice social lives with no friends/family who might be "ashamed" to discover us here. And this is a website about masturbation, so it makes sense to represent yourself as the tool you use to accomplish the deed!
Yet, for my sake, I find it hard to be attracted to floating body parts, unattached to anything that speaks of a person's personality and "soul". I don't find myself attracted to women who represent themselves as boob or vagina pics. In real life I'm attracted to someone's face first, whether or not they seem friendly and passionate and, most importantly, comfortable with themselves. On a forum, cartoon avatars and mini-mes help me get a better sense of who someone wants to portray themselves as. Or in my case, my avatar is a picture of a fictional character, that I feel accurately expresses who I am inside. I could have also chosen something that depicts something I love, such as a beautiful woman's face in the midst of an orgasm, and that would also tell something about me.
But what does my dick tell about me, other than that I have good or poor genetics? Presumably you are signing up to a social website because you want to interact with people and, to a certain extent, have them know who you are, have a recognizable identity. Is your identity, and more specifically relevant on a website like this, your sexual identity, based on the size and shape of your penis? If so, I am not attempting to suggest there's anything wrong with that. It's only natural, biologically speaking, to want to have the biggest penis, and show it off. I just find it ironic, on a website that is primarily about sharing stories in an anonymous but intimate way, to look at all the new members and see more penises than pictures that suggest a story.
So whether you're male or female, feel free to chime in with your own perspective on the male psyche as it relates to this subject. And the female psyche as well. Are you more drawn to read things written by members whose pictures suggest a story, or do you just like seeing lots of big dicks? I'm very curious.
