Guys: Take Better Dating Profile Pictures (Page 2)

[Anonymous]

or, maybe JUST MAYBE we can be ourselves? stop telling us how to look in pictures to please people like you, its patronizing. I dont need to ''dress up'' and I dont need to tell my friends to take a photo with me because you automatically correlate selfies with one person with creeps or basement dwellers. Any guy who isn't insecure and knows who they are doesn't need your advice you selfie guru

[Nyx_85]

Don't worry according to this take I'm a creep too because I don't have many photos with friends (or even that many selfies). I also must be hiding my pounds and pounds of fatness because I have no full body photos 😂

Thats all pointless to me since Im not 10/10 attractive. And I refuse to participate in online dating because women only respond to attractive men.

[CactusJuice]

So not true. Plenty of girls will reply. You gotta punch your weight though.

[spoopyscaryskeleton]

@CactusJuice
I did all I could do for two years doing online dating and it did not work. I'm a shy guy, i do lament about having a girlfriend but i never blame the girls or are bitter about it.

[BrittBratt2416]

That's the whole point, to respond to someone you find attractive. Do you respond to women you don't find attractive?

[Opinion Owner]

@BrittBratt2416
Then why do you women lie about "we care about personality"?

[BrittBratt2416]

So they don't seem shallow even though they know are being dishonest

[BrittBratt2416]

It's pretty much the same for women, be attractive or less/no hits.

[Opinion Owner]

@BrittBratt2416
So you agree that men like me will suffer and be alone for life because of your (all women) shallowness?

[Opinion Owner]

@BrittBratt2416
No it's not women can get laid regardless of their race, appearance etc. Women have it easy.

#FemalePrivilege

[BrittBratt2416]

Well damn man, why are you assuming that lol way to put a cloud over your head. Listen women who aren't usually at the top of the dating chain still have it hard, you have to remember that their will be men who will just go with any woman they can get. Otherwise if they had a shot with the 9 and 10s, they wouldn't bother going for women that are considered mediocre.

[Opinion Owner]

@BrittBratt2416
ikr thats why you see fat women with six pack ab husbands/boyfriends yet you will never see the opposite unless the guy is filthy rich.

Also I am not assuming I am stating facts and I am living proof of said fact.

[BrittBratt2416]

If that were true then most of my crushes would have liked me back but didn't.

[Opinion Owner]

@BrittBratt2416
You're a privileged pretty white girl you can get any man you please.

[BrittBratt2416]

... I see average women with average men all the time. None of them are model looking people, just everyday people. I'm not super thin and my boyfriend isn't ripped either..

[Opinion Owner]

@BrittBratt2416
Im below average. I am ugly physically and ugly racially because Indian = ugly.

[BrittBratt2416]

Lol I'm not a white girl. I didn't get my first boyfriend til 18 cause after high school cause guys didn't find me attractive growing up.. so if I can find someone I'm sure you can

[BrittBratt2416]

That's exactly how black women feel cause black=unattractive in America and global so you are not alone not feeling beautiful racially. I don't know what you look like but everyone finds someone attractive, it just takes time finding that person for you sometimes.

@BrittBratt2416
Are black women portrayed as ugly immigrants who drive a taxi and talk with a horrible accent?
This is what black women are portrayed:

And this is how Indian men are portrayed:

[BrittBratt2416]

Dude are serious? Using two popular celebrities doesn't change all the negativity that is hurled at them especially in America. Dark skin black women still don't get enough representation and often told their plight isn't that serious. Colorism is also a huge problem as well, the darker you are the more negative assumptions.

[Opinion Owner]

@BrittBratt2416
The above is the only representation my race has on tv/media yet black women have beyonce, and all the black female celebs.

Also you have BET, so much focus goes on blacks i. e black history month, black civil rights movements etc you have magazines celebrating black women like ebony.

[BrittBratt2416]

Black women for the most part aren't given lead roles in movies or tv shows, or even a main love interest but usually the friend. Bet/ ebony is the one channel/magazine that advocates for black people and women. Outside of bet how many black woman are stared on other channels and magazines? Very few. Black history month still gets backlash in America cause it's about black history and white people often complain about it and want to sweep it underneath the rug.

[Opinion Owner]

@BrittBratt2416
And they are right. Why do you get a history month but everyone else can't? Where is Indian history month? Asian history month? European history month?

Also there are lots of movies where the main character is a black woman

[BrittBratt2416]

Listen this isn't the oppression Olympics man, people of color just have it hard in general and go through different experiences in life. Black women are usually stereotyped as ugly, loud, angry. Indian people get stereotyped as Apu from the Simpson's as your example.

[BrittBratt2416]

European history is learned all throughout our education system. So what's wrong with black people have one month talking about our history? That's all we get. You were just talking about how unfair it is to be Indian but now you're turning on black history month. Just goes to show you can be a person of color but still be anti black.

[Opinion Owner]

@BrittBratt2416
Im not being Anti-Black. I was born in Africa ffs. What I am saying is all races should be treated equally not one race given special treatment over others.

[BrittBratt2416]

Lol that's like when people say "I'm not racist, I have black friends". Dude living in Africa doesn't mean you can't be racist just so you know. Also remembering your people's history and how far they came is not getting equal treatment. People wanting to put my ancestors history in the shadows but talk about the great things Europeans did is special treatment. We have people talking about happy Christopher columbus day, but as soon as black history month comes around that's when they want to bitch and moan and say how remembering my people's history is only causing "more division". Oh but honoring and remembering a man who raped, stole, and killed the natives the lands is just fine and dandy right?

[Opinion Owner]

@BrittBratt2416
Im not racist whether you like it or not.

[BrittBratt2416]

k cool.. sure. Idc I was just saying.

[es20490446e]

Those seems logic in theory, but I had more luck with only one photo

It seems that the less photos and text you have, the less needy you appear.

[Kkaos]

I've had more luck with multiple photos, I find girls tend to instantly think you're fake if you only have one photo.

[es20490446e]

@Kkaos Except if you have a price on photography like me! :P

[SpoiledBrat22]

to be honest i don, think guys take better pics then women do.. Iv seen some womens pictures that look very nice. I think it depends on the person.

[FreedomByChoice]

you dont agree with yourself lol

[SpoiledBrat22]

@FreedomByChoice lol!! i do!

[Anitameme]

Yup, important to not just post selfies and to show a sense of humour and absolute no photos of your bloody car!

[Tony_1693]

Lmao I have a picture of my ass on tinder and still have over 1000 matches.

[Listening5]

Pretty good mytake, Im not online dating but gotta admit I liked what I read. I would like to read more of your mytakes.

[Anonymous]

Why do people always use very attractive models for these types of takes

[windknowsmyname]

They use pictures of 10/10 aka hot guys that look like they give a shit about girls presences.

That actually says something about her. Hmmmm.

[myTake Owner]

LOL, because Google Image Search. Try it. Look up photo of wo (man) and what comes up? Google images bases their images off of ones with a lot of hits and so that's what you get, and I'm sorry, not sorry, you and everyone else is contributing to what comes up on Google Images. If you have 3 hours to search for images, you are welcome to it, but I doubt it.

[savalisk]

Would you like my resume and cover letter with that?

[YHL6965]

Do you think it's ok to put shirtless pictures? Maybe a picture at the beach?

[myTake Owner]

If you're comfortable with that, it's up to you.

[YHL6965]

I mean, my face isn't all that great, but I have a decent body so I might as well make it a "selling point".

[DaTruth01]

cut the crap if he's rich or super hot you won't care if he was a loner, no one will

[Anonymous]

No. Girls, accept a guy for the pictures he places, he might be someone you would like to be with

[Anonymous]

Pictures are everything on dating apps!

[jokery56]

Very good take, I’ll take the advice

[lazermazer]

I like to bet on your strategies, you up?

[Wwwyzzerdd]

Online dating sucks, waste of time.

[manffchesfer2]

So useful. I learned a lot from. Thank you.

[Jimbob995]

Great article and some berry helpful tips

[Omar5881]

This is actually a good take

[Himig_Ng_Pag-ibig]
