So what is a Dick Pic aka Cock Shot? Ladies I think we have all gotten a few in our day. The man is sometimes completely naked, sometimes semi-clothed, but there it is…in all its glory….the main focus of the photo…an erect penis proudly displayed for all of the internet to see!
I can understand the general thinking of a man that might do this. He thinks,
“What would make me look twice at a profile?”
or
“What is my favorite part of a woman’s anatomy?”
And really bravo to men who like vaginas! We need more of them in this world and I am actually not being sarcastic! I know most straight men love them, and really it is a beautiful thing when men are excited about the wonderful universe that is female genitalia! But I digress.
Dick Pics, Cock Shots…you can always find them. I haven’t seen a dick pic of a small penis yet. I guess the more well endowed men just want you to know…in case you were wondering….I HAVE A MONSTER COCK! Although I have seen some average sized penises in dick pics!!! I almost want to email the guys and tell them “Look I don’t know how much porn you have watched but…you might not want to broadcast that member for all the world to see.
My favorite aspect of the Dick Pic is how the men who post the penis photos will then fill out the rest of the profile. The main photo is of themselves with their dick out, and then they go ahead and fill out the profile as if it is completely normal. I wish I was making this up, but I have seen at least half a dozen like this with things like…
“I just want to meet a nice girl who I can hang out with”
“My friends say I am one of the sweetest guys you’ll ever meet”
“I like to snuggle and cuddle and I am just looking for the right woman are you her?”
“I would love to hang out and watch my favorite TV show Modern Family with you!”
They can write whatever they want…all we see is PENIS!
Women aren’t as visually stimulated as men are sexually. I know I have admired many a penis in my day, but it was always after I really admired the man to whom the penis belonged. Most straight women are wired this way, otherwise we would just spend our days flipping through photo after photo of dick picks and cock shots. I am sure there are some women out there that might do just that, but speaking for my gender most of us do not. And bigger is not always better as every straight women knows, size isn’t everything. Just because something looks mighty and large doesn’t mean it’s going to be any fun. As in many skills in life, it is not so much the tool as it is the technique.
If the men who post cock shots and dick picks are just looking for a hook-up situation, I understand why they would want to show off their sex organ. But then their profiles should convey as much. For instance in the About Me section, they should just write.
I am looking to hook up with women who live near me, I live in Willamsburg and I love oral sex.
That kind of profile goes with a Dick Pic, but
“I am just looking for the right girl, are you out there?”
That doesn’t really go with LOOK AT MY ERECT PENIS!
But now I wonder, what is the equivalent of the female Dick Pic? And I honestly really want to know, because if I am doing it, I want to stop doing it now!
Typing long-winded descriptions of our perfect man?
Putting photos of our cats in our profile?
Writing about biological clocks ticking?
Talking about our therapist?
Writing about past relationships?
Posting a photo of yourself wearing sweats and eating ice cream?
Having men in all of your photographs?
Going on and on and on about our inner pain and struggles or your difficult childhood?
But maybe for someone the Dick Pic is exactly what they were searching for, after looking at photo after photo of faces…the penis emerges from the heap and they think to themselves…FINALLY! I kind of doubt it, but you never know.
You forgot the “I took a SHIRTLESS photo of myself in the bathroom mirror with my iphone” Mmm. Sexy.
I get that guys who have worked on their body want to show it off but have some dignity, wear a shirt that shows off your body.
But I have to say, at least these all give you an idea of A: What this dude looks like and B: What this dude *is* like. What I can’t understand is the blurry “No one could possibly identify me from this photo” or the blurry, ugly, double chinned “This is obviously the least flattering photo of me on earth” photo. I really want to tag these photos and say “Really? THIS is how you want to represent yourself to total strangers that you’re hitting on?”
And these are the photos that I see, like, 99% of the time. It cannot be THAT hard to take a flattering photo.
HA! Well of course, you are so right! The posed shirtless photo is so damn tacky. Like “Hey ladies….take a look at what I got” I almost have a rule, ANY posed shirtless semi-naked photos and you are disqualified. HA! If it is the look at me with my friends at the beach oh and I happen to not be wearing a shirt, that one I will allow. Because we have all been there right?
My other pet peeve and I am getting a lot of these because the guys don’t notice my age is this. A man aged 60 or more will put seeking women 20-35. Well I hate to break it to you buddy, but I am two years outside of your “box”. I am not exactly in their wheelhouse! What I really can’t stand though is the guy who is 38 who will put seeking women 20-35. I am like so you wouldn’t go out with a woman your age???? Or even a year younger than you? But you would go out with a woman 18 years younger than you..Classy! And good luck with the 20 year old. I sure you will have no drama or issues with a 20 year old. And I am also sure that 20 year old will be independent and take care of themselves…..oh wait…aren’t most 20 year olds still sort of living off their parents?! So if you want to “raise” your girlfriend or significant other, go for it. I would rather have an equal thank you very much!
dick pic is presenting behavior. that is, it’s is one of the variety of posture, gestures, and signals used for communication reproductive readiness. it’s routine among apes and there is quite a bit of literature on baboons and macaques describing this.
the female online dating analogs are pics emphasizing cleavage, buttocks, and pursed lips (all frequently done in front of a bathroom mirror.)
with both sexes the clearest message with presenting photos seems to be related to low self esteem. it is as if the subject has an inner voice telling him or her “you’re not good enough to be liked for your character – better show that chest (or butt or lips or…)”
if you feel compelled to reveal your presenting behavior i’d say it’s always a good idea to check the background prior to taking these kind of shots. just to be safe. http://monsterfail.com/2011/07/06/bathroom-pic-poop-in-toilet-girl-fail-lol/
