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.

Anecdoche. Or 'Is that it'?

Just tell her to reply with this.

You could say "what is it?"

"ooo you must have a flash car!!"

It really is just because they would like to see a similar photo of you and they assume you want to see one of them.

That, and sometimes it's aggressive.

Worst thing I was sent was a video of someone wanking. In slow motion. Slow. Motion. Complete with 'result'. In. Slow. Motion.

Modern equivalent of the flasher in the park for lazy bastards...don't think they expect it to impress...just a sexual peversion.

Yeah, I think that's the most likely explanation.

I mean, if they weren't raised by wolves, they are going to know it is not considered polite.

Though I guess it could double as a kind of boundary-testing ... the kind of woman who'd send a picture of herself in response to an unsolicited dick pick will be quite slow in recognizing other red flags.

@beebee7 That monkey fanny bum whatever is hilarious!

This just made me laugh so so hard!!! Monkey fanny bum!! Thanks for cheering up my evening!

It's disgusting and it just makes me block them for it.

It's all Freud's fault. 'Penis envy', my ass.

I did the whole dating thing a few years back - got lots of uninvited man-wands sent...

I requested different camera angles? Suggested a few 70's porn style shots - men don't seem to like that sort of response?

Wish I'd thought of the monkey foof

i wonder do they think we use it as part of a selection criteria? Love me love my dick kind of thinking....

i received a slow-mo wanking vid when i was fresh out of marriage and exceptionally vulnerable to idiocy and bullshit.

not any more. its disrespectful beyond belief imo.

I once got one texted to me by a man that had been flirting with me all evening, I have given no indication of reciprocating to this, my friend had used my
Phone earlier to call him so he had my number and shortly after I left I heard the text tone and shortly the offending image popped up in my screen... I deleted and ignored. About 10 mins later another text from him 'sorry about that! Not sure how it happened, it wasn't meant for you... out of interest though, like what you saw?'

I'm not sure what men expect? That we'll open the message and melt into an uncontrollable nymphomaniac that must have their penis at any cost?
The reality is, we open the message, turn it sideways, squint a bit and then delete with a non amused sigh.

JetBoyJetGirl That's what the WhatsApp bloke sent me. Awful.

OMG FishSlice that link, that woman is my new hero I'm crying with laughter.

Amen!

When asked to 'send nudes' I'm often tempted to send this back .... but I tend to ignore instead.

Just send this back.

Apparently, it's how teenage boys 'flirt' with girls they fancy, these days.
I didn't realise so many grown men were doing it. I would just reply 'Yuk'
Gross,....just gross.

Please don't lump all teenage boys together in this. Some are more mature than others.

She's such a wuss, she won't send any of suggested the replies!!

We are only young (19) but she's had a fair few messages from men who look suspiciously older than their supposed age, as well.

She's so lovely too and this is a definite no, no for her. For some reason though she always seems to attract dicks (not just photos of them!)

It's low level sex offending in my book. And should be treated as such.

Agreed and it is sad it has been semi normalised.

I really can't see the pride some men take in their cock and balls (and I say this as a gentleman mumsnetter) they have the asthetic appeal of a semi deflated set of bagpipes. I also can't imagine what response they're hopping for, do they fondly imagine that it will somehow swing opinion in their favour:

Friend: how was your date last night?

Female dater: well he was ugly as sin, his breath stunk, he holds all sort of unpalatable views, his.chat is awful, he's 41 and he still lives with his mum, who picks out his clothes for him.

Friend: So you won't be seeing him again?

Female dater: well I thought not, but when I got home I found he'd sent me an unsolicited and out of focus picture of his penis and that changed everything and I thought 'This is the man for me'.

i received a slow-mo wanking vid when i was fresh out of marriage and exceptionally vulnerable to idiocy and bullshit.

That's what the WhatsApp bloke sent me. Awful.

God, I had no idea it was A Thing! I thought he was just a bit deluded.

Seeing the precum oozing out slowly and then the full on ejaculation slowly...

The grossest, vilest thing I've ever seen. And I'm not shy.

Just that really

Please don't lump all teenage boys together in this. Some are more mature than others

I didn't realise anyone would think I meant every-single-teenage-boy-in-the-world.
