Why do some women feel the need to plaster the internet with half naked/naked pics of themselves?

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Anyways, but then they'll get upset if men see them or use them as just sex...
Don't get me wrong, I don't like when some men say/act like women have nothing to offer other than sex, but if women themselves put it out there like that, aren't they giving the impression that's all they have to offer?
And for those that "claim" it's because they're proud of their body, there's ways to show that off without showing all your t*tties and a$$... I know I'm just an old fashioned old fuddy duddy, but to me if you really think your body is that special, why wouldn't you save it/share it with the one special man in your life? 🤷🏼‍♀️
There's a reason my username is what it is, not because I was trying to come off like I'm so intelligent, more because I want to be seen as/for more than just a woman with boobs/butt, etc..

First, this post wasn't about women in bikinis... It was about women exposing their ass and boobs and everything else (although some women wear dental floss and call it a bikini🤣)

Second, I find it funny that one women said women don't try to shame women who cover up more, yet there's been many who have replied I'm just jealous, have low self-esteem or old and ugly, etc., etc So then aren't they doing just that? Difference is I don't get caught up by what internet strangers think about me, cuz I don't need validation from strangers to know/appreciate who/what I am, nor do petty insults from strangers bother me, but hey they can keep thinking so🤣

[Finchie40]

Low self esteem and pretty much seeking validation, , most the time they are insecure within themselves so they love the attention , they want to feel beautiful, the sad thing is most of those girls already have a man that tells her she is beautiful every day, but that isn’t enough for her , she needs to hear it from others, then she wonders why she ends up single , People that need validation from others are usually the ones you can’t trust in a relationship , They are looking for attention and to be accepted by someone else , Sadly no guy wants a girl that poses like that all over social media , he might want to fuck her but he won’t commit to her , unless she is a model and that’s her job but if she isn’t making money from it and it isn’t her career then she is best to stop doing it if she wants her relationship to last , I have been in relationships with girls that I thought were beautiful to my eyes but they felt like they were just average , complaining about their weight and talking down on themselves then they would work out and regain confidence in themselves being thin and feeling beautiful about themselves while I stood by them no matter what through their ups and downs , thinking she was beautiful to me no matter what , but the second she gained confidence and feeling better about herself and receiving attention from others , is the second I didn’t matter To her anymore , her seeking validation from others was more important then my love to her , telling her she was beautiful and that I loved her no matter what didn’t mean shit anymore , but her hearing it from someone else and getting validation and attention from other guys that just wanted to fuck her is what mattered to her most. People that do that are selfish people and only really care about themselves the have very low self esteem and are very insecure about themselves , they don’t know what it actually means to be in a relationship , cuz they are only thinking of themselves and the attention they seek from others, Low self Esteem guys do this as well , don’t get me wrong, it’s good to feel good about yourself, but you shouldn’t need validation from others when you already have someone that loves and values you no matter what. , but those are the people that will never experience true love cuz they are selfish only thinking of themselves, when the person that actually loved them walks away they don’t look back.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Sorry you went through that🤗🤗
And I agree, proof have become so selfish, me me me culture and don't stop to think how their actions can hurt or negatively affect others

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

*people not proof🤦🏼‍♀️

[ChrisMaster69]

There can be a multitude of reasons.

if it’s this platform, I would take it with a pink of salt if it’s a pink posting exposing photos, especially if it’s an anon.

There will be genuine girls doing it.

The reasons as I said will be numerous, from coping with previous abuse and trauma (it’s a vicious circle which unless you have dealt with it is hard to understand).

to body positivity issues, say from weight loss or working hard at the gym etc, not actually being able to show off what they have actually accomplished, they then post photos with face hidden on a random internet site and have others saying how hot they look.

I know a girl that does it, as where she lives her family would kick her out for even a simple bikini photograph, culture etc.

A good friend had boiling water spilled on her as a child, it took about 6 years for her to be comfortable with going fully naked on the beach. Part of that process included her posting risqué and topless photos, some public, some shared privately with strangers.

Culture and backgrounds of people definitely play a part, for example the ‘half naked’ comment, on here I’ve seen that used to shame someone wearing a short skirt and a top, oh and those dreaded tattoos, all that brings out the righteous to condemn the girl for showing leg about the knee and her bare shoulders.

Yes some do it for attention, however it’s important to understand the reason behind that attention may actually be fairly dark, a coping strategy from historical abuse, from bullying and a bunch of other reasons.

Some will also do it for the money, in which case good on them, if it helps pay the bills, you make that cash work for you great.

As the weather warms up here and the nights lighten, I will no doubt go in to Newcastle for a night out, where girls have always pretty much worn belts for skirts, as it’s part of the fun and a way to relax and unwind from a week of working.

it’s also interesting what others consider to be half naked.

[Crazycookie23]

I usually never like to touch bases on this topic cause it's pretty controversial. But in all honesty it all boils down to one simple answer; they love the validation.
I don't care how many of them use that same line of "i do it for myself" because the thing is this, if you're a straight woman, you don't really care to have other women see you naked. As women, we all have the same thing so to impress one another is not something we'd necessarily just go out of our way to do.
As a woman myself with different social medias, I myself use to post some pictures that you would consider "hot", and yes when I did it made me feel good, but in all honesty, when I posted it, I honestly wanted the guys to see it because I use to crave validation from men.
I think as women, a lot of us have gotten so caught up in this whole "strong, independent woman who can be happy all by herself" thing and it makes us in denial and even contradicting in a lot of areas. Like when you mentioned in your question how we basically will complain about being objectified, yet will literally post ourselves in the most derogatory way possible on the internet and claim that "it's just for ourselves". It's bull crap.
If this world was full of nothing at all but women, I kid you not and nobody wants to admit this but it's the truth, the standards would be way different. A lot of things just wouldn't be because as I said before, as women we don't need to necessarily be validated by one another when it comes to physical appearance, because we all literally have the same thing.
Like it's not rocket science.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Exactly!!

[malwins]

Lol i dont pretend to be string independent i always said i love validation

[CrazyGirl2]

Obviously all women have their own reasons for posting Bikini pics on Insta timelines, or on any social media site, including GaG. Yes, sometimes it’s purely vanity, sometimes it’s an attempt at self promotion, and sometimes it is completely innocent. Maybe a friend died, and that is the last picture you had together. Maybe you finally lost that final 15lbs and you are at your ideal weight and celebrating… regardless! Obviously whenever one posts pic where they are wearing a bikini, there is always the possibility that some guy will jerk off to it, and frankly who cares? The main issue as to why a woman would be upset comes when “that guy” texts her to let you know that he is using her bikini image to masturbate! It is SO unbelievably disgusting and RUDE for anyone to ever mention that they masturbated to YOUR photo, especially when it’s not a porn site, and the image was never intended to “turn guys on” its also a sure-fire way for her to get that photo taken down (unless it’s on GaG were we have ZERO ability to change or edit posts once they are up).
However, regardless of the reason why a woman posts a picture of herself in beach attire, doesn’t she STILL have a right to be free from sexual harassment if she does? Good lord, porn actresses have a right to be free from sexual harassment. So certainly posting a picture of yourself on Waikiki beach, is not a valid reason to flood a girl with sexually harassing texts about how he “jerked off” looking at it!

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

This was about half nude/nude pics, not so much bikini pics, only used that pic cuz wasn't going to post inappropriate pics whether or not they weren't mine and sometime else's

[CrazyGirl2]

Ahhh, yeah, that’s where my confusion came from. But still, have you never had a “super religious” family tell you you are “almost naked” for wearing a bikini on the beach? I have! It sucks!
But thanks for the clarification sweetie.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

👍👍

[coolbreeze]

Because it's like a fashion trend. a lot of women do it on Instagram and other sites. It also gets people attention more.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Women should realize they shouldn't have to post nudes to get attention... Oh they'll get attention, but not the good attention

[coolbreeze]

Yes so true. But sadly so many girls and woman do it. I agree it's bad attention.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Agree 💯... It is sad

[coolbreeze]

Yes that is so true...

[Anonymous]

Some do it to record memories. Remember the beach. Remember what they looked like on the beach and what their friends looked like, since we can often lose some of our fondest memories with the erosion of time.

Some do it because they grew up their whole lives with constant attention to the point that they live only to milk constant confirmation from others because their independence muscle has atrophied down to a single fiber because they have never had to build it and consider even having to test it to be "so unfair", so instead of learning useful skills and building their own independence, they just try to flaunt their own bodies and thinking that is enough to be worthy of praise while those around them had to earn it for themselves, build their own self-esteem, and build the skills that they suddenly need to "find a boy" to do because they think guys are just naturally born with these skills.

You know. Different folks, different strokes.

The likelihood of the second one over the first one is directly proportional to the amount of unironic duckface.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

This was more about the half naked) naked pics women be posting than bikini or beach pics

[Opinion Owner]

Yeah I just tweaked mine a bit to exaggerate the difference for comedic, or at least sarcastic, effect.

[D_Bone_Steak]

It's about attention. It's the easiest way to get what they perceive as positive attention. They don't realize it's just a bunch of lonely loner boners lusting after her. The ones that realize it either monetize it or recognize it for what it is and don't make that their main pursuit in life. The lonely loner boners willing to hand over attention to be a beta male orbiter and be an emotional tampon, and/or a provider without even getting what I pay for with a professional (hookers)... they're part of the problem, but then again so is the family that raised the girl. Guys can end up doing it too, but generally having all the looks takes a lot of hard work... dudes are not born with it like so many lucky females are.

The sad part about those that become attention dependent... the attention achieved with what you're born with will age like milk and not like fine wine. Things worked for age like wine and last longer. The attention for that 'born with' non-achievement will eventually go away and if no effort was put into anything else... once a thirst trap, now just a dried-up barren wasteland.

[TheSpaceGnome]

People overthink this.

Human women show off the way male peacocks show off.

Now anyone who is showing off their sexual benefits like that, is doing it to get a sexual partner. Any other reason is a load of bs.

The negative responses are exclusively for guys the woman simply doesn't want. A guy she wants can be pervy as hell and get away with it, every other guy is going to be called out for it.

Furthermore, when you advertize your body, but not also your brain, the guys who want both considered, won't answer your body only ad. So women who claim they want a guy to love their mind and not just their body, either post about both, or they just post skimpy pics with nothing about their hobbies or personality, because they are actually full of shit and only care about looks in a guy.

The woman in that pic has a nice body, but if she's not into my hobbies and way of thinking, than she's about as "fun" as a sex robot (ie just as boring, but more expensive than the robot)

[Jamie05rhs]

[Anonymous]

We want romance or to be treated with respect but everywhere you turn we are trying to profit of our beauty!
@subarugirl You have to understand men are so visual in terms of their sexual processes. It is different. And you don't have to be a man to see the validity in that.

I think women will be viewed as objects over the next 20 years MORE THAN EVER. The Bible is going to start to make sense in terms of pleasure. The internet has become a porn site. Everywhere you go. I mean even tiktok, guys are getting off to the stuff. I am not blaming guys. They cannot change their biology of getting turned on. They can have some more self control and courtesy of course but women need to grasp the power of their beauty and not use it responsibly. We're going to see a downfall of women. Mark my words. We want to be treated with respect but everywhere you turn we are trying to profit of our beauty! And there is a price we have to pay for doing that. And being viewed as sexual objects is the price. It's hard for a man to view you as more than your body when his brain is exploding with dopamine caused by your tight yoga pants.
@apple1996 and maybe there's not anything wrong with that but there is a price the be paid on the back end. That is obvious. It is natural to want to share something you are excited and enthusiastic about though. I just personally think it smells of egotism. Better said people value it too much.

We should value something that isn't given free at birth. We all have nice bodies (maybe not face). All you have to do is work out and eat decent and groom decently.

[Asad1ONE1]

Speak for yourself lol.

[dovendyret]

Honestly, I think people put way to much into it - so what if a woman posts a picture of herself in a bikini or underwear; which covers more than some bikinis out there. So what if she wants to be viewed as sexy & seeks validation through that. Not accounting the fact the often underlying issues for that want - which is where those women need help. Had the internet been more available to me growing up - I'm sure the internet would be plastered with child pornograpich pictures of me. Actually is one or two out there that someone else took of me & shared.

But none the less; majority of my pictures - is shit I've knitted, does that now mean all I have to offer is knitting? Or all I want to be seen as a knitter? Are the things you post online all you have have offer, so what you see what other posts - it must be all they've to offer?


& if the female body wasn't as heavily sexualized as it is, I'd be naked as soon as weather allowed it. I envy men, who can walk around shirtless - with giant ass man tits while I've to be uncomfortably strapped down in a bra and preferably clothes that cover me from neck to toe. Different people have different ideas of what is approriate before you're letting yourself be sexualized. I'm someone who dresses modestly as an adult & have been accused of sexualizing myself and I was asking to be sexually harrashed.

[CheeseMonster]

1. Why assume that it's a need? It's more likely a want. Just because you would only do it out of need, doesn't mean that other people can't do it for other reasons (like being proud of it).

2. Why assume that showing your body = saying that's all you have to offer? And why assume it's even an offer? People post pictures of their face, their cooking, their fashion, their hobbies, etc, and that never implies that those things are all they have to offer. It never even implies that they are offering those things. They just want to show them. So why is it different when it's your body?

3. Why assume that showing your body is disrespecting or devaluing it? (Why is it worse to show all of it?) You aren't damaging it. You aren't insulting it. Just because the way you respect your body is by keeping it covered doesn't mean that's how everybody else has to do it. Some people cover their hair as well, but that doesn't mean other people are disrespecting their hair by not covering it.

0. It's not hurting anyone; let people do what they want.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Funny you defending women that would call you a perv or creep for doing the same thing... If you were playing the internet with your dick pics or dming then dick pics... And there's a time and place.. There's 13 years old users on this site, that shouldn't be seeing that shit...

[CheeseMonster]

Bro dming is *very* different than posting publicly. Those aren't remotely in the same realm. And I certainly never said people should be breaking website guidelines or doing illegal stuff. Wow.

Can you reread what I said in the context that I actually said it: people posting pictures legally, within guidelines, publicly, online? Like YOU asked about? I talked to you like you had brains; use them. You should be able to stay on topic.

And please don't bring my body into it. Even if anything you said actually applied, how I am judged is irrelevant here. Just because there are double standards doesn't mean one side has to drag their own side down instead of trying to build the other side up.

[CheeseMonster]

Sorry, ignore the brains part. Even really smart people often go off topic if they are wrong about the actual topic.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

I'm not trying to drag anyone down, I'm trying to show women they can be sexy, attractive without getting naked for strangers... Talk about brains, if you had a daughter, would you really want her to feel the only way to feel good about herself or get attention was to bare all for anyone?

[CheeseMonster]

Yes, exactly, there are other ways! They do NOT HAVE TO show their body! That was 1. in my original comment. I said that.

And you're still assuming 2. So, summary: showing your body does not = saying or believing your body is all you have to offer. Just like posting a face selfie does not = saying or believing that your face is all you have to offer.

Obviously, I don't want anyone to think that their body is all they have to offer, or that the only way to offer their body is to bare it to people. **I never said that. I said things directly against that.**

I don't know what you're on about anymore and I don't think you even read my original comment at this point.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

What do you think? Am I worth $400 (dinner, drinks and pay for my outfit)? ↗
Enough said?

[CheeseMonster]

You really think that the image is the telling part of this question? The image? She could have had no image at all, described her outfit with words, and the question would mean the same thing.

People will go for what they want no matter what method they choose to get there. I never said that nobody can use pictures of their body in attention-seeking ways. But even in your example, you have to admit, she could have been wearing a jumpsuit and the same issue would be underlying it. These are not issues that only and all revealing pictures have.

These are their own issues, and revealing pictures is it's own thing. And you have yet to give any reasonable reason to think the two are so intrinsically connected as you keep acting like they are.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

You who accused me of not reading, why don't you read some of the replies from women, and then we can talk🤷🏼‍♀️🙂

[CheeseMonster]

Why? I'm trying to talk to you, about your question, so I gave my opinion with reasons for it, and asked several direct questions of you. You have just asked around the topic in response and given one example that adds nothing new.

If you think that showing your body does equate to saying that's all you have to offer—even though showing other things does not equate to saying they're all you have to offer—then would you tell me how these parts of the body might be different from everything else people post about to make it have these different meanings? I asked that initially, and you haven't answered.

I also asked why showing your body was disrespecting or devaluing it, which hasn't been addressed at all. If you do think it is bad to show more of your body than to show less, inherently, then please at least try to suggest some reasons for why that might be true?

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

There was a female that said she does it to feel loved... Come on, those guys don't love or care about her as a person, I'm talking, you just ain't listening, but okay then

[CheeseMonster]

That's just another example just like the last one! I already said, I know people CAN use it to get attention—just like how people can wear makeup for attention, or wear really crazy outfits for attention, or do really good at sports or smarts for attention—but all that stuff is not always done for only one reason, that's just one of many possible reasons. To just assume that showing your body is always done for only one reason is just as ridiculous as to assume it about anything else.

You're question was entirely disingenuous. You don't want to listen to or discuss answers; you just want people to agree with you and laugh at the subject. I really didn't think you were someone to enjoy something like this, but I guess everyone has their vices. Have fun..

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Dude get out of here with that🤣 question? Would you be okay with your wife or your daughter posting nudes online? Yeah of course you wouldn't🙄

[CheeseMonster]

I'm not going to have a wife or a daughter, and even if I did I don't see why my answer should be any different for them. If it's not illegal, if it's within guidelines, if it's not an intimate dm type thing, then I don't see why it should be automatically bad.

Even if it seemed like they were one of the ones doing it for attention, you know what I wouldn't do? Stop them from posting nudes and pretend like that fixed the problem. Cause the problem isn't nudes it's something else—insecurity, lack of affection, something—and if I don't address that then it's irrelevant what they do, they'll be doing it for a bad reason.

The only reason I would disallow an adult from posting photos of themself publicly is if they are too naive to realize the consequences, and I know they wouldn't be okay with those possible consequences.

There. I answered your question. Will you answer one of my original 3 now? No I bet you still won't.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

First off "feel the need" was just the way I phrased a question... And I wouldn't do it period! And again that's other ways to be proud of your body..
What message do these women send to young impressionable girls? Yeah noone thinks of that, do they..
Just because you don't have daughters, I do. And I wouldn't want them to ever think that's the way to get attention or show how proud they are of their bodies... My one daughter's a dance major and you can tell her said without her posting nudes, that's just a weak bs excuse

[CheeseMonster]

Thank you.

Okay so it's not a need, we agree.

You don't have to do it. Why would you have to do it?

Yes, there are other ways to be proud of your body. There's also other ways for someone to be proud of a piece of art they made, or their pet. But they can choose to post it online to show they're proud, and that's one perfectly fine way out of many. That's not sending a bad message to other artists or pet owners, is it?

Also, it doesn't just have to be they're proud of it either. That's just one other reason it could be. And again I don't think it being one of several alternatives for showing you're proud means it suddenly becomes disingenuous to use for that purpose. That just doesn't make sense.

What message does it send to young girls? Could send many. But the insecurity message usually comes when only "attractive" women post images, and they photoshop them heavily. That's a different issue which causes most of the bad messages that I think you may be referring to.

Great; I assume you would also not want your sons or husband doing it. You can parent however you want. That's none of my business. Do what is consistent with your beliefs.

[Ez-Bri-Z]

For some of them I'd imagine it's empowering and not meant to be seen as being a sexual object. Do we objectify men the same way when they post images of themselves without a shirt on especially if they are out of shape?

Some of us STRUGGLE with body image and when we do have a good day we want to share it, not to be objectified, but to celebrate a good day in our mental struggles.

Yes, there are some women who absolutely do it for the sexual attention and good on them if they feel comfortable with it. Yes, I realize this also can cause confusion for those who can't tell the difference between the two reasons.

Finally, the idea it has to be preserved for a special someone is traditional thinking, but in the end we shouldn't criticize those who are ok with it even if we aren't. The only time we should be saying anything is of the location they are putting them could be an issue. For example, someone posting nudes on this site would be against the rules.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Yet people still post pics of their ass on here so the time anyways.. and there's ways to show your body/figure without showing naked pics

[Ez-Bri-Z]

Is there? Sure. Is either really wrong? Depends on the situation.

We will remove nude photos on here, but whether it is for sexual attention or spiritual empowerment, a non nude one would probably end up staying.

[anon1903]

@ez-bri-z PREACH !!!

[DanaeAdam5]

Women who do that usually fall into two categories:

Women who feel extremely confident for themselves and their bodies (good for you girl!)

And women who are completely insecure about their bodies ( and need someone to tell them they look good) or/and personality (and in that case their body is something they deem as their only worthy aspect)


To be honest I don't really care about either of these. As long as you aren't a minor posting half naked pictures and are feeling confident of yourself, go you lol

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

I'm sorry, I think it's sad for anyone to feel the only way to show off their figure is to show naked tits and ass yet if guys show their penis, they're labeled pervs or creeps but we praise women who do it, 🙄

[Inbox]

It’s typical female thinking because most women tend to act on how they feel, unless you’re one of those logical types of girls (such as my current girlfriend).

Men must think in terms of emotion or how one would feel in that situation to understand women’s behaviors and women must think in logical terms to understand men’s behaviors.

A woman generally cannot sleep around without losing dating options and reputation if she is known to be a slut or whore. My theory is that women post or dress provocatively because the attention validates their insecurities and egos by saying “that’s right, I can get any man” or “I still got it.”

Ironically, I noticed women tend to do this more (in many cases very aggressively) to get attention from men while dating a man - aka teasers or attention whores. When diving deep into the process, the reality is that even the average looking girl has options and can get laid with a snap of her fingers, but getting men to commit is the challenge for most women.

How a woman uses that power is what tells me what kind of person she is and whether I should cut her off, ONS, or girlfriend material. Once a girl teases me, she’s cut off immediately or I give her living hell to annoy her back.

The problem with today’s society is that weak women and weak men have fallen for the BS narrative of women being both superior and victims (which makes zero sense). In other words, these women are taught to be free to express themselves, but when they experience any adverse consequences for any actions (there’s no free lunch in this world), they’re also the victims according to certain groups such as the Feminists.

[ohshee]

Well I agree with you I dont know why they would want to hey half naked when they could get a Quarter of the way naked . I think it's stupid. On your post question as I'm reading it my eyes go right to the girl as im walking past her.. saying this is a good question. Can you see this water this beach the sand.. omg this is hot. I want summer time to hurry up. I want to go to that beach
To answer your question I don't know
I don't understand why they do it because they have to understand that okay we're going to look at then. We're just going to keep walking on by because we're not going to be disrespectful so it really doesn't mean anything you've seen it a million times so it's just another person on the beach really. Or in a picture half naked. A quarter naked it doesn't really even matter if you don't give it another thought you have to respect him so you just keep on going it means nothing really but just think if they were fully dressed and had a hoodie on did you see that girl on the beach fully dressed with the hoodie on she has to be hot LOL see this is how much that picture pressed me all I can remember is her curly hair that's the only thing that caught my eye besides the water

[ShadezMcgee]

It is a matter of seeking attention, validation and being better than potential competition. I agree with you that women that do this don't promote themselves in the light to be taken seriously for relationships or offering nothing more than sex.

They want to be admired and receive more praise than their fellow women who do the same thing. All ego driven for the most part. Which is why men should remove their attention and not acknowledge women that do this behavior online.

This is also a trap for men. Men that fall for these thirst traps are not taken seriously by the women who do it and they are laughed at and detested in private when thos inboxes fill up with men that give them that validation they crave.

Best way to make it stop is if men don't give these women any attention.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Right!!

[Wraith_Cemetery]

I love it when they use the pathetic excuse "I'm proud of my body so I want to show it off" as if in order to be proud of yourself you have to strip down. As a martial artist and hockey athlete, I am proud of my muscle development as well but I don't need to go prancing around half naked online in order to receive compliments from strangers. Dressing nicely is all I need to do. I know what's underneath the clothes and the world doesn't need to see it.

It really aggravates me that "confidence" is equated with "showing off" and "self-consciousness" is equated with "covering up". I beg to differ. The most confident girls understand their worth without seeking attention online. The most confident girls dress in a classy manner.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

THANK YOU!!! MHO answer here 💯
And these will be the same women labeling men creeps or pervs if they were plastering the internet with dick pics🙄

[Wraith_Cemetery]

For sure!

I'm just glad that there are other women calling out this pathetic behavior. When a male does it, they're labelled sexist, misogynist et cetera.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Well I'm not one of them, I call out bullshit regardless of gender🤣

[Cynicaldreamer]

Simple: low self esteem and attention. They rely on random strangers for gratification, rather than looking for a self esteem boost in a healthier manner.

It's pathetic really.

And those same women will be the main ones complaining about stalkers, creeps, pervs, and not being taken seriously outside their looks.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

EXACTLY!!! You hit the nail on the head there...💯 Will be the same ones posting, We had sex, then he ghosted me🙄🤦🏼‍♀️

[Cynicaldreamer]

THIS! I see that crap all the time on here or on social media- then they're the main ones complaining when they get negative attention, a guy leaves them, or some other nonsense 🙄

... how about you cover yourself up instead of parading around for attention and you might not deal with that kind of negative attention?

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Exactly!!

I don't think that the reason women do this is all about attention, buy rather there's more going on under the service. I think woman want to feel wanted, they want confirmation that others find them beautiful and they seek validation from men. Nowadays this type of behavior is seen more and more. Women maybe like the way it feels when they're able to strip down and share the physical side of themselves.

The problem is that when they she'd their clothes people are not necessarily seeing who they are inside, but they're focusing on her body and many times having lustful thoughts or feelings. If It's on a basis of wanting attention or wanting to feel wanted than sadly the way they're going about things won't always lead them to being necessarily happier.

Exactly

It might seem odd but I like when things are left to my imagination. If I see a pictures of a woman showing all her goods on the internet I'm bored and less likely to ask her on a date. Because I'm less mentally engaged due to things not being left up to my imagination. Sure some guys really like nudes and women posting pictures like your example. But the mind can be a sex organ as well and for me mental engagement is a big thing. So nudes and pictures like that are like receiving a gift when you all ready know what it is. It takes a lot of fun out of it.

It's not odd, I've heard a lot of men say the same thing... And I agree 💯 you can be sexy without showing tits and ass, there's classy and trashy🤷🏼‍♀️

I think it depends on what is 'normal' in your friend group/ media feed/ geographic location etc.

Girls near beach towns are probably much more used to bikini photos being the norms than say, someone from Vermont where it's winter for 6 months of the year.

Some girls who are into working out follow a lot of fitness models who also flood their feeds with sports bra and spandex shorts, so girls think this is normal day to day attire.

Some people do it purely because they are insecure and want attention.

Because they can and they want to. They might call it empowerment while either neglecting or forgetting that the internet never forgets and even people they might know or work with could see that pics.
From a guy´s point of you that´s just self-objectification because showing your breasts and nipples never make a guy angry but horny.
It´s not helpful in case of getting taken serious because even if guys are good/traditional/reasonable/mature... guys they are still guys and therefore they have the same thoughts after sometimes like all the other guys have. (maybe not in the same though)

It's for validation. A person who refuse to truly love themselves make others responsible for their self-worth. Since most men reward women for their appearances (compliments, attention, gifts, etc), it's easier to temporarily boost your self-esteem with them.

Yeah, but why half naked/naked? That's what most men like to see. Everything we do is based on what the majority likes. If men started liking the homeless-women look, guess what you're going to see? Girls rubbing brown dye on their pants to make it look like dirt or shit, and homeless make up tutorials on Youtube with girls saying, "The magic is to look dirty without actually being dirty ladies oooookay!"

They simply want attention, mostly from men but also envy and/or competition from other women. There are the occasional chicks I will hit Like to on some of their Insta photos from time to time, but for the most part I generally despise them because you can clearly see they want nothing but attention and don't have a whole lot going on in their brains. Real women have real interests and are doing something with their lives other than just giving us 1,000 selfies a month.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

We actually agree here, did I just feel the earth tilt🤣🤣

[ManOnFire]

Lol. I don't mind you disagreeing with me or my posts, that doesn't bother me :D

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Wasn't trying to imply it did, just we're usually on different sides of the page lolol

@Brainsbeforebeauty "Just because you "personally believe" something, don't make it true" - Your words. Why are women proud of cheating? ↗

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

With out even clicking on that, why are men proud of cheating? Why are people proud of cheating, why do people condone/justify when people cheat?

[ManOnFire]

@Brainsbeforebeauty You need to be honest and stop running from what I said.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

What am I running from? 🤣 Nothing.. I believe in that thread I said just because you believe women cheat more, doesn't make it true..
People confuse opinions with facts
People also confuse personal beliefs, with what they believe about others, and it was personal beliefs I was referring to in the other thread...
How all this applies to your take on expecting to pay versus, expecting sex or this post though, I Don't get. I actually agreed with your opinion here and you still trying to argue with me because of what another user started... A user who's salty because me and another user called him on saying it's okay to 100% lie to women and he's been harassing all her threads and mine... But hey, he's more believable because he's a guy, 🤷🏼‍♀️ why don't you look at his profile, you'd see he argues, insults just women's threads and then using that same women can't handle others POV, when apparently it's him that can't...

[ManOnFire]

@Brainsbeforebeauty I'm fine with you agreeing with me here, but I'm talking about you saying you believe what you think is true but think I'm wrong to believe what I think. I also think you deleted my comment on the other thread where I pointed out your words on my question about cheating.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Okay I never said that.. Please don't twist my words... And I never deleted a comment from you, only from the other user... But I'm done now, thanks

[ManOnFire]

I'm not twisting, but okay.
