Questions for the Men

[Lowlander]

I also dont think its that common.

I'm not so sure about that....

Sometimes it might even be someone you know that does it. I've seen / noticed it happen before.

Not that I wanted it, but still, you think 'OMG, never thought [person] would do that'.

Kek.

Difference is in some cases is whether or not the other person asked for it mhmm. 

Kek. I dunno man. I don't need nudes from strangers. I got a girlfriend.

 

[kamya]

Im truly happy for ya. You deserve each other.

I changed my mind. I think it might be more common than I originally thought. On social media sites like reddit or places like twitter it seems to be more common. It's probably the same shotgun approach that pickup artists use in bars. Send enough and you're bound to get someone interested eventually. Only other explanation other than what I mentioned before.

Do people actually send such pictures?

Do people actually send such pictures?

  I have received 3 in the last month.  All from groups on facebook, one from one group and two from another.

It is so weird, because never having conversed with these men, then suddenly get a pic via messenger.  Then seeing these men posting normally in group.  Bizzare.  

I think I need to change who can message me settings.

Maybe these men see these facebook groups as another place to pick up women. Who knows. I haven't asked, because I just don't want to engage with them.

That sounds like trolling. The content on these fb group pages is often quite offensive as well.

 You should report it.

I never really thought about it as trolling that is a good point.  I am going to report it, I bet they have sent to all the other women too.  So the more reported, more likely to be dealt with.

The facebook groups are quite friendly and in one case really helpful and informative.  One is about Slow Cooking and the other is about a medical condition I have.  So it is strange reading their contributions and then a dick pic, especially one who gushes about his wife and how amazing and supportive with his medical condition.

That is strange. I assumed they were groups full of edgy laddish borderline pornographic humour.

The most sensible to do would be to report it to facebook. 

...Of course you could threaten inform his wife.

I was thinking the exact same. I laughed when I read "edgy laddish borderline pornographic humour"

"...Of course you could threaten inform his wife"  ha.

Many of those pictures come from automated bots. There are a billion members on Facebook, if you get three pictures of a random dick every month, that still means that about 3 out of 1/2 billion men are doing it. I'd venture to say it's not that common when you consider the amount of people that Facebook exposes (no pun intended) you to.

 

[kamya]

What is the motivation of dick pic bots? Just trolls?

 

[bleed_the_freak]

To create societal trends. Facebook is now the social conditioning wing of government.

 

[Serenia]

I don't think these are bots, because of the interaction of the users in the group. I can understand bots in dating sites.

I have always wondered this.

Why do guys on dating sites comment on messages? Specifically, how many messages they think the woman is getting.

* I'm sure you've been flooded by messages by now...

* Thanks for responding, I'm sure your inbox is flooded...

* I doubt you'll see this as your inbox must be flooded...

* Sorry to add to your inbox flooding...

What kind of response are they seeking?

It's because men know that there is a huge imbalance in the number of messages females receive vs. males. Those sorts of messages probably intend to show the person as sympathetic towards the woman receiving so many messages, which their own message is contributing to.

It's basically saying "I know you probably get a thousand messages a day, so here's mine".

I'd say it's a form of flattery, everyone would like to receive lots of messages wouldn't they?  if the guy says that then they are probably hoping it makes you feel good, that you must be popular, then you may be more likely to respond as they have boosted your ego, made you feel better about yourself?

 

[ardour]

They know your inbox probably is flooded and maybe want to stand out by coming across as more 'aware'.

I disagree. I think it's just the person in question not being confident. "I'm just one among thousands, don't mind me please."

Self pity. Need affection/attention/response but feel not good enough since they think that the girl might already be talking to 100s better guys than him. And by sending this message he subconsciously wants you to show affection/attention/response to him.
