To not get why guys send dick pics?

[Emboo19]

My very lovely single friend is spending the day with me and my DD.
She's trying online dating at the moment and is messaging a few people. She's been showing me some messages etc today, and almost every other message is a intimate photo mostly of the guys dick. She hasn't lead up to this, no sexting or anything, although most have asked for a return picture sending.
Is it supposed to be a turn on? Do any women actually think it is?

I love my boyfriend, all parts of him. But a pic of that wouldn't get me turned on or anything.

Yes any man who sends a dick pic, it would be a no from me.

I've not really done 'dating' been with my bf since 16, but my friends say this is pretty standard in the dating scene. She's been chatting to some of them, but nothing to lead to that! And some are literally the first message she's received.
It's gross! And no they really aren't attractive on their own.
I wonder if it's a hopeful, I've shown mine, now you show yours, kinda thing.

Laurie I was fucking HORRIFIED for a second there, until you got to the monkey bit. Still slightly tbh....

Having said that, it is genius...

put it in a little brown box in a small drawer in my dresser
Bit stuck if you go back to hers!!

If we ALL agree it would knock that shit on the head in a year

It could be our new feminist cause

Ha, I'm going to get her to send the monkey picture back!!!

And to the person asking if they were floppy or firm! I'd say firm or at least a bit so! I'm not really looking too closely tbh.

It's homoerotic

They are turned on by cocks, so think everyone else is too

Homoerotic in the same way that groups of men watching strippers is, in the same way that men who look on while their mate gets a lap dance is. It's not even about the women. It's male sexual display and their own love of cocks.

It is standard now sadly (certainly is in the under 40's 'dating' scene)

They send them hoping for nice pics in return. Many girls do.

@Laurie

That monkey fanny bum whatever is hilarious!

Would be so funny to send that and have him jerking off over a monkey's bits!

It's just them revealing their true self. .
A dick. .

As with anything surely what matters is whether it is solicited or not?

In the OP's friend situation, unsolicited as some sort of enticement to relationship = odd.

In a relationship as a consensual and mutal part of a relationship = totally fine

I don't get it! As if your going to think 'oh yeah fancy a bit of that' just looks disgusting

These made me laugh quietly to myself. But in answer to your question... ¯\(ツ)/¯

Male confidence is the most abundant natural resource.

They seem to think penises are the male equivalent of breasts.

They like and get turned on by breasts, ergo they think women will be turned on by photos of ... 🤢

Personally, I'd rather look at the female form naked than the male. And I'm heterosexual.

I guess the best response is some sort of concern, whether that's regarding size or health. As they must be after advice??

I've not tried OLD in quite some time.

If and when I decide to get back in the saddle, I must remember to update my profile with a NO COCK PHOTOS PLEASE warning.

Who said romance was dead?? ❤️

Do girls really reply in kind?
That won't help
I agree with PP - It's low level sex offence

It does seem to be standard in online dating and women do reciprocate. Mainly under 30s it seems.

I agree with the poster who said that its homierotic and it turns men on and thats why they do it. Theyre hoping youll send your own but they still get off on showing off their dick even if you dont.

I dont agree with the posters who say theyre ugly. I dont think they are but Id be horrified to receive one from someone I'd never met and this has happened to me in WhatsApp with someone who was trying to get me to go on a date. It really put me off. Ive had them from boyfriends (2) and Ive liked them so I think it drpends. I'd never reciprocate.

I online dated last year and it never happened to me. Did get one person suggesting a shag in a car as a first date, though. I think I must have a forbidding appearance.

DP rather thinks his penis is a bit annoying when not having sex (like pp). Even then, it's nothing to photograph. It's nice as penises (peni?) go, but they all look like raw, inexpertly made, sausages with variable levels of hair attached to them.

You could reply. 'Ooh that looks like a penis, only smaller'. Can't remember which comedy show that was from.

Some women do reply in kind hence why they keep doing it! Blokes always share these pics too!

just get her to say "sorry, but I've had bigger"
