When a woman posts one or two pictures of herself, there are usually at least one or two men who make it known that they think the female is beautiful "inside and out."

I have yet to see the same evidence of super-sensory power in the women who comment on men's picture threads. Why is that?

Are the differences between genders so great that modern men have evolved a sixth sense when it comes to knowing a woman's character merely by looking at a few headless images of her semi-nude torso? Why don't women exhibit this trait? And if they do, why don't they share it on this site?

Also, the women seem to be aware of this male ability because they so readily accept the accolades of the gifted men instead of questioning their veracity. Being a male, I'm able to differentiate between truth and fiction. Perhaps woman have not only not developed the aptitude for sensing a man's mental and social qualities based on a still photo, but they also lost the innate capacity to tell the difference between honest feedback and utter bullshit.

Discuss.
 
I've said this before. I rarely comment on pictures. I do say the occasional compliments, because I know how hard it is to post a picture, throw yourself out there and hope for something nice to be said. I know that when I do comment, it doesn't take long for my nice, simple compliment to get swallowed up by the sluttier comments that follow. 90% of guys will reply to the suggestive comments before the simple compliment. So I have gotten to where I don't bother much anymore. I don't feel that I should have to tell some guy that I'd love to suck his cock, just to get a thank you for my "compliment" I'd rather say nothing at all.

Same goes for me if I post a picture . I try and thank everyone who comments to my pictures, cause they took the time to reply. But I'm also not stupid enough to believe that I am anymore different then the 100 other girls they said the same thing to. So do they mean it? Sure, they probably do, but I'm also smart enough to know if it's genuine vs not. If I take the time to reply, I mean it. So I give them the benefit of the doubt.

But that is also part of why I don't have my own picture thread. I don't want to feel I have to keep taking pictures to keep people interested. I also don't want to feel like I should comment when those sluttier comments come out. Mine that I do post now, don't get a lot of comments, so I've been safe so far.

as for the comments about a woman looking good inside and out.. No one knows a persons insides unless they've taken time to get to know them. So if a random person is commenting on how beautiful she is inside, he's full of shit, since he doesn't even know her.

There are only a handful of people on this site, that I've truly let know me, so if they comment, it means much more to me then someone who's never even said hi, but I still appreciate all comments.

So they're not psychic, as he has suggested?

I've noticed some of those "inside and out" comments, too. I wanted to ask how he knew so much about her simply based on 2 pics that really don't say anything beyond the fact that she's got a nice body... but then I figure most women are smart enough to see through the bull shit and are just being polite with their shows of gratitude on the "compliments", so it's not my place to call the guys on their apparent displays of super-empathic abilities.
 
These men who claim a woman is beautiful inside and out based on a few still shots are just lining her. As someone who used to have a pic thread, I always replied politely to every compliment/comment. To buy into such transparent compliments is foolish.
 
I can't respond directly to the original question.
However, 1. In my near 1500 posts most have been meant as complements(taken as such or not)
2. A good 1/4 to 1/3 have not been responded to.
3. Most of my posts I think I could have written better - so thanks to those who have responded.
4. Sometimes I do tease , sometimes I do say things a little spicier.
5. I have no thread, but I sometimes don't respond to "out of the blue" p.ms.
6. Only about 4 or 5 posters do I feel I know a little. They may still be evil - I don't know.
7. I am sure I sure I recall my posting more favorable to me.
 
I am not sure we would ever know what the reasoning is for those comments. Maybe they feel if they are encouraging, they will get to seem more pics? This is one reason I don't want to post pics in a forum thread. Although, the comments might be sincere, I prefer to hear that I am beautiful for the entire package, intelligence, wit, bitchiness, whatever....Not just the tits and ass I show off.
 
Not everyone has a soul, for example, the thread OP. ;)




Just messing with you, Ekserb.
 
hmmm

interesting - your soul maybe reflected in the pictures you take more thanpictures taken of you

Are you suggesting the men of Lit are able to see the spirit of the photographer in the shared images, and since the photos are self-shot, that they are able to get a sense of the photographer as the model?
 
Ehhhh mayyyybe they are just hoping to 'get their rocks off' but are trying to do it in an 'oh so sensitive and emotional way' by playing on the said laydees emotions. Telling someone they are beautiful inside and out from a few photo's is silly. You can only know that over time.....you know, actually getting to know someone :eek: shock horror. Not just notching up another cyber fuck to your bed post :rolleyes:

Oh my I'm turning sooo cynical soooo young bwahaha

Agreed. Plus, come on, to truly "know" someone would mean actually being with them for a long period of time.
 
I very much doubt that any man claiming to have a knowledge of a woman's emotional/psychological state from a handful of pictures is serious. It's just impossible. Intimate knowledge of a person comes only from a long history of swapped secrets and shared experiences. 2 tits and ass pics? Not so much.

But that said, I think there are some guys out there that are trying to be nice, but they're going about it the completely wrong way. Complimenting a woman on her physical beauty is a very easy thing to do, but it means precisely jack shit. Usually. And while some guys go a little deeper just to edge their way into chat requests, those guys out there that think they're being sincere often come off as extra sleazy.

So perhaps those guys are trying to be extra nice. Really bloody stupid way to go about it, but hey... To each his own.
 
I think some of you are reading far too much into a person posting a complement to someone based on pictures. For instance, when a woman is willing to put herself out there, showing something or not, I see no harm in telling that person that I find their PICTURES attractive, therefore they are attractive. I am not making any kind of assertion on their character, searching their soul, sexual morality, intelligence, or anything else. I am simply stating a fact. That the image depicted on the photo has attraction to me.

When someone is willing to post something personal about themselves, like a photo. I find that as a viewer, I comment on what I see. And make no other assumptions about them. Nor do I comment on their post to "get a cleaver response." Also I never seek any sexual come back from them. It is simply my way of telling them I appreciate their courage and their attributes. I have a lot of respect for those that post. I have not the courage or the body to do so. But that does not mean I can not appreciate others that do.
