AIBU?

To have never sent or received a "sexy pic"

Do people really do this a lot? What does it involve? I can't imagine willingly taking a naked picture of myself (pouting??) and sending it to my husband/partner/random off Tinder. I've also never opened a text to find a flaccid penis sitting there. Or erect I suppose. It really worries me that in the future my small children will think photographing your bits (I can't actually believe sane grown ups do this) and texting them to someone is normal social interaction. I feel like a dinosaur sometimes. I'm pretty sure nobody I know does this. But then again, I've never actually asked...maybe they're all at it? It just seems so dangerous - and nasty. AIBU?

Neither have I. I don’t feel like I’m missing anything!

YANBU.
I'd hate to be in the dating game nowadays.
I think it's horrible.
But I'm also an auld yin so perhaps I just don't get it.

I can't see the point personally. I have discussed it with my two DSs who don't understand it either. It's actually quite foolish.

Fair enough if you don't want to and don't enjoy it.

Some people do. Both sending and receiving.

I've never done it either and never received a dick pic.
However I've seen a few naked pics of mens gf and /or wives. I've never asked to see them just been thrust before my eyes mid conversation, I never worked out why I was shown them tbh. But it does mean ny husband is never getting a naked pic of me.

I can't think of anything less erotic. Fortunately my phone doesn't take pictures, so DW is not going to be getting any dick pics from me.

Similarly, can't receive photos either.

So - one less thing for us both to worry about. Could send this emoji I suppose.

I never do this and nobody sends me nude/ rude pics either. It would freak me out and it says a lot about the person who does this kinda infantile shit.
I much rather prefer the real thing in front of me.

I think it's gross and thank my lucky stars that when I was young enough to even think about doing it - mobiles were yet to be invented for some decades, by which time I would have been old and wrinkly Grin

Why would anyone want to see a picture of a willy on their phone?

My best friend and I send each other pictures of rude shaped vegetables or cuddly toys doing rude things. It helps us get through the working day. Does that count?

Why does anyone like anything sexual ?

Why do some people like being tied up and humiliated ?

Why do some enjoy a good spanking ?

Why do some like being pissed on ?

Why do some like dressing up in furry costumes ?

Why do some like to swing ?

They just do.

As long as it's consensual between adults I don't judge. It mighty not be for me but I don't judge.

"Sexy" doesn't always mean dick pic does it?

Sending an "arty" shot can be titillating I'm sure. Personally, I'd not, except to my partner as part of a good sexual relaruonship with a lot of trust involved - and a weather eye on "would I mind if this appeared on the internet one day".

As for our kids... they're growing up in a different world than we did - just like we grew up in a different world than our parents did. Our experiences are not really the same thing.

I've never done it and I'm late 20s. Honestly I just wouldn't ever trust anyone enough to be honest, a friend of mine had pictures she sent her boyfriend posted on social media. I know it's a crime to do that now but it doesn't seem to deter people and once they're out there that's it.

Men’s bits are really not that great to look at at the best of times, so would prefer to go about my daily business minus the dick pics.

Do people really need a constant reminder of what their love interests genitals look like, don’t we have imaginations anymore.

The equivalent in the 80s would have been taking a picture of your genitals and taking them to Boots to get them developed then sending them off in the post to the person you were trying to impress.. except IIRC they wouldn't have let you have any rude ones back. V sensible.

I've sent dh the odd rude pic.
He's my husband and partner of 10 years though, I don't think it's a good idea if there's any risk of it being broadcast.

I had someone send these to me (pics of his todger, not BoJo *shudders) I never understood it and it left me cold.

Even with trust, people lose their phones and get them stolen all the time.
That picture of your genitals could end up being seen by anyone and everyone.
