here's a thought--to both ladies and gents

Every now and then, I get an email from a man who wants to see me, and he includes pictures of himself. got one today, and I must say, the picture was nice....nothing crude or Brett Favre'ish....just a nice face pic....a body shot would be nice, but not as important as just a facial shot.
I like this.
Just curious. How many ladies would appreciate a picture prior to meeting, AND how many gents would be willing to send a picture prior to meeting? You guys see us in all our glory....why not we see you? These pictures would be exchanged between 2 people only, not on any website, and I can't think of a good reason for you guys not to send us a picture! The peephole in my door at my incall distorts the face of the man waiting there,(almost fisheye lens) and personally, I would love to have the gents send a discreet picture to me.
So what do you all think? Ladies AND men chime in and tell me what you think. Reember, discretion goes both ways....so there should be no way a lady would share, just as you guys don't share.....you don't have to. We are all out there for the world to see!
just a thought tonight.....

always,
Natalie
I personally kind of like the thrill of not knowing who is coming to my door

Call me weird, but it's kind of a turn on, adrenaline rush and makes the sex a little bit hotter when it's with a stranger!

I also think that most guys value discretion and wouldn't want to send a picture prior to meeting. Not to say that ladies can't be trusted to keep the picture between the two of them, but in my opinion the gents don't feel comfortable with it and some might feel self conscious.

P411 has an option for clients to add their pictures if they want, but of the profiles I've seen, not too many guys have done that. Doesn't matter to me either way.

Equal Opportunity Provider right here

I do. My P411 profile has a picture. I won't be emailing any though.

First thought - discretion. Just because there "should be no way a lady would share" doesn't mean the same as "would be no way a lady would share".

Second thought - safety. I personally wouldn't care if some of the providers I've already seen had pics of me (not sure why they'd want them, but different strokes). Prior to that first meeting I'm supposed to know beyond a shadow of a doubt who is sending pm's or emails how? The provider I hope. Her friend? Manager? Other?

Yeah... I think I'll just surprise Jamie - I like how she thinks. (just not sure how well it works for repeat clients.)

Natalie,
I do like the idea of exchanging pics and have with several great gentlemen, but only after extensive screening! I did have one gentleman who sent me a pic with the first email and I was totally shocked! Couldn't understand why he would be so trusting! Thank goodness that I'm not the type to share it! Could have gotten in the wrong hands........my oh my!

So I guess my question is what does a generic headshot type photo prove? I've got hundreds of them at various places on the Internet. Work web sites, Facebook, etc.

A right click on one of those and someone can save the photo, send it wherever they want.

Does that tie me in to anything in particular though? Nah, it's just a picture. Could have come from anywhere.

Now, a picture more revealing? That would just be dumb

You're absolutely right, but if that person wanted to out another, a pic with the email could be damaging!

Oh absolutely, an email would be a very dumb thing to do
As long as my references check out, I'm clean, respectful, on time and bring the right donation, why should I have to worry about sending a lady a picture of myself?

I never have sent my pic. My references can describe me.

I've also met ladies who obscure their face. I've never been disappointed. However, many glam pic's are misleading. It's the lady's decision who to trust with private pic's.

Some ladies want all kinds of info from a guy. Their rw name, etc. Yet these same ladies won't reciprocate. I know ladies need to stay safe, but so do the guys. Just as some ladies are not comfortable posting or sending face pic's, some guys aren't either.
Never ever cared.. I like someone else said, kinda in a weird way like the suprise..like it being a complete stranger..makes it fun and hot..

that..and what does it matter what he looks like? im providing a service that i am excited about.. his looks don't and won't impact that for me

Hmmm ... wonder if they'd use a hobby handle instead of rw name on that cute little board.

I have a pic in my P411 profile and that is all anyone is going to get. Email is out of the question. Some providers do not check my profile after I give them my handle so they missed out on seeing the pic and that is on them.

I'm sure there are many independent ladies, but there are many who have management/pimps as well. I don't know how many men are wanting to send their pics to a girl's pimp.

A guy is risking his family (if married), his job (which he may have worked his entire life toward), etc. There are certainly good reasons for the client not to send pictures.
