PSA: Fellas, pull up your pants & put down the phone

I’m curious how you leapt from expressing your opinion on dicpics to calling them facts.

I’ve seen so many jerks generalizing this opinion over the past week and it’s REALLY starting to grate. A bunch of self-righteous bitches online who don’t like dick pics start telling the world that nobody does. But this bitch likes dick pics, as long as I like the guy in question. I’ve requested them in the past. How do you account for that?

I’m not sure how **requested **dick pics relates to *unsolicited *penis pics.

One explanation I’ve read recently for why some guys send dick pics: they are looking for the kind of woman who loves dick pics.

Which would be a man.

@PunditLisa

You realize you’ve just qualified your response to agree with us, right? See, the reason these rich and famous men got into trouble is because their recipients didn’t like the guy in question. And I have ZERO doubt that either of them imagined that that was the case when they sent it.

Rule of thumb: If you’re not 100% certain that it’ll be welcomed without laughter (or worse), then keep your penis in your pants.

Now that’s not so hard, is it?

Yeah, sorry, that was bad.

Ummm, you guys can stop slut shaming now, ok? Why do you hate women??? :mad:

I thought I saw an interview with one of the Weiner woman who stated that Weiner asked her if she wanted to see his Johnson.

Assuming she wasn’t lying (that the picture was not unsolicited), apparently there are women who don’t mind these pics.

[bup]

Women still really like unsolicited SURPRISE! dick pics on facebook, though, right?

[DiosaBellissima]

Let’s see . . . an ELECTED OFFICIAL texts me and asks me if I want to see his dick.

You’re right, I’d definitely say no to that because I think penis pictures are funny.

. . . jk, I would definitely say I wanted to see that. It’s a politician’s dick! (And yes, I’d then laugh at it. Then laugh that a politician was stupid enough to send me dick pics).

Good point.

But it’s stuff like that that might have encouraged the belief in Weiner that women wanted to see his junk. Obviously, the man wasn’t thinking clearly.

I am too bashfull and insecure to conduct this sort of study myself.

[boytyperanma]

Sheesh women, what the fuck is wrong with them. I never turn down free penis pics.

@tumbleddown

For me, the simple truth is, if you wouldn’t walk into my house with your dick hanging out of your pants and waggle it in my face, …

I don’t think you should have written that out loud. Has your doorbell started ringing yet?

@DiosaBellissima

Oh jeez, calm down. “Thems the facts” is a joking saying, obviously not intended to be serious. Sorry it upset you so much that you decided to resort to name-calling.

Since it’s obviously too late for me to go back and edit my posts (which I thought were obviously being read as my own, personal experiences and perceptions, not the law I’ve written as god/president of the world), let me be clear for anyone like our sweet rachelellogram who is misunderstanding my intent: anything I posted is written based on my own personal opinion, not fact, law or statute (moral or governmental). In fact, perhaps I was being too silly, too light hearted and joking in my tone, so I apologize for not taking the matter of unsolicited cock pictures with the gravity they out to be.

And slut shaming? Come on. If you like dick pictures: more power to you. I don’t for sexual purposes. A lot of women I know don’t. You can diddle yourself to as many pictures of penises as you’d like without judgement from me, but come on- suggesting we’re “slut shaming” because. . . we think pictures of cocks are funny? You’re accusing a self professed slut of that. Idgi.

I think I covered all that in my answer.

Oh sure. And I mean, I’m sure the guys that send me their dicks and I say, “Wow. Nice” and change the subject are thinking, “YES! SHE SAID WOW! SHE’S IMPRESSED BY MY MANLY GIRTH!!!” But I mean, I’m not going to be mean about it, even if it is funny. Instead, I’m just going to giggle about it to my friends IRL and on a message board :D.

[Autolycus]

What if it was like, a massive monster dong? Like a submarine sandwich! Would you ladies be impressed then?

Impressed? Yes. Interested? No.

I was always a little astonished when I was doing the on-line dating thing at the sheer number of dick pics that would get sent to me. No text, no name, nothing but a phone number and a picture of an erect penis. And it wasn’t like my ad said anything about an intense need to touch a dick either, it was about my non-sexual interests. Apparently there are sheer numbers of men who come across a personal ad and say, “She likes theater, opera, and retro 80’s music? I’d bet she’d love to see my dick!” I went out with a lot of different men (and eventually married one of them) that I met from those on-line ads, not one of which was dumb enough to send me a picture of his penis.

[miss_elizabeth]

Unsolicited dick pics are funny at best, downright disturbing at worst. I have never been turned on by one (and I have seen many, because TONS of guys send them).

BUT, I have asked for (and received) dick pics that I liked. So, this woman at least can be turned on by a picture of a penis.

That said, take the time to take a good picture. Some penises aren’t that photogenic. Some are quite nice looking though. If your penis isn’t that great, try the “hard on in the underwear” shot, like Weiner did. I actually thought that was a pretty well done photo.

@PunditLisa

Listen up, men. We know you love your penises. Despite the fact that we may find them pleasurable from time to time, our adoration rarely extends beyond the bedroom. So unless explicitly requested, resist the temptation to photograph your penis and send it to us, no matter how awesome you think it, or he, is. Trust me, its awesomeness just doesn’t translate. To be brutally honest, even the most impressive penis, which I’m sure yours is, is rather ridiculous looking out of context.

I agree. Guys shouldn’t be sending pictures of their penis to you, it’s wrong and tasteless. You should only have pictures of MY penis, delete the others!

Heh. How can they tell which one is yours?

Does it come with a bar code?

It’s the one named LongJohnDong69.jpg.

All the others are gross.

[Anaamika]

Thankfully I can’t receive pictures on my phone. But, I admit, the only time I have ever received unsolicited dick pics were on a sexual-themed message board (PM box).

I never, ever got one unasked over e-mail. I feel kind of left out.

(This is still not a request for dick pics.)

[Little_Nemo]

Gentlemen, it’s time to face the facts. If they didn’t want penis pictures from an NFL quarterback or a United States congressman, they don’t want a penis picture from you or me. So stop.

But not you, ladies. It’s completely different with us. Don’t think we don’t sincerely appreciate any nude pictures of yourselves you sent to us. Or that we obtained by hacking into your cellphone.
