Has anyone ever actually been turned on by a dick pic?

Genuinely curious if this has ever worked outside of very specific, pre-arranged circumstances. Like is there a secret success rate no one talks about, or is this just the digital equivalent of throwing spaghetti at a wall and hoping it flirts back?

I have never found a dick pic arousing, other than one occassion where the person made slightly more effort for the photo than just a POV shot of their nob. Solicited or unsolicited it just feels like im looking at a penis, and so what

It feels like we’re watching the longest-running group project where no one wants to admit it’s failing. I feel like women typically put a bit more effort into nudes??

Have you ever been turned on by a dick pic?

Idc if im being unreasonable dick pics are just not it

Luckily I’ve only ever seen one, and it was posted on MN, I had to turn the picture round and round to work out what angle it was from. It was far from a turn on.

Such typical Mumsnet. “I don’t find dick pics sexy” “Have you never had a sexy conversation? Mumsnetters really hate sex!”

I think you need to read the conversation I was having with that poster because it wasn't about random unsolicited pics

I have just gone back and read it...your response to her was i think an OTT response to her description of penises in not flattering terms. Shetland nothing about not liking sex ..you made that jump.

Mumsnetters absolutely do not hate sex. I very much enjoy sex, but I don’t find a picture of a dick in isolation in any way attractive or a turn on. Sorry don’t know who initially suggested that so I’ve just replied to this comment! Such a jump

PeonyPatch · 20/07/2026 08:15

Also I think men are very visual when it comes to sexual attraction, whereas us women can be, we tend to find emotional connection much more appealing. Which is why a random (unsolicited) picture of a penis kinda ruins the mood.

Bertiebiscuit · 20/07/2026 09:10

Men are so in love with their trouser turkey gizzards they can't believe that women don't join in with the worship. - far from it for most of us.

EmeraldShamrock000 · 20/07/2026 09:16

Maybe someone should design some nice penis accessories for the lads to decorate their penis, a small tie bow, glittering top hat, edible jewellery, a gold crown 👑 you get the gist. Jazz them up a bit.

We are violently agreeing!

My girlfriend loves them. At least she says she does anyway 🤣🤣

ImthatBoleyngirl · 20/07/2026 09:49

Nope, they're ugly!

ImthatBoleyngirl · 20/07/2026 09:54

They look like naked mole-rats! 🤣

If anyone was guessing that about 8% of MN posters are men, then this is the thread to produce as proof

"I honestly don't think most women would get a thrill from staring at a man's crotch in the way that so many men do from ogling cleavage etc."

No, and IRL there are numerous examples backing this up - men seem so hungry for a glimpse or a full-on ogle of a woman's body parts, looking down a top for a view of breast, staring at a leg disappearing into short-shorts, hoping to catch a flash of knickers - some of them are SO desperate, they put cams in women's bathrooms despite the risk - the one-time popularity of 'men's magazines' with open-crotch shots (they tried an equivalent showing naked dicks, on the face of it for women but bought mainly by gay men and girls for a giggle, and quickly went broke).

Women just don't do this stuff. Because they don't want to, they don't feel that desperate desire to glimpse a bit of underwear or to SEE private parts of a person they don't know.

I wonder also if men who do this imagine their own delight at being sent a 'naked pussy pic' from a random woman; many men would probably be thrilled and turned on? - and make the sort-of logical (but wrong) leap that if HE would love one, so would SHE....

But since reading this thread I feel it's more likely to be just the modern 'flashing' and that the imagined shock of the recipient is the thrill.

Many men are in thrall to their dicks, it seems. Whatever it demands, it must have.

EmeraldShamrock000 · 20/07/2026 11:24

I wouldn’t think dick pic from a partner is the equivalent to a flasher.
An immediate dick pic on a dating site or random dick pic is definitely a flasher.
I have never been sent one. I’m not missing anything.

In April! This is an old thread. I couldn't give a shit about sex atm tbh so my response now would probably be different

No, a dick pic just doesn't do it for me. I know what they look like.

Foreplay begins in my imagination, or with words or touch etc but dick pic nope.

A well worded suggestive message is far more effective.

Imho, the men who send dic pics just don't get it. They think that's sufficient effort to get results. Lazy ass effort, more likely to be lazy/selfish in bed.

Exactly not much of a catch are they. Basically they've got no idea.

If I want to look at the last chicken in the shop I’ll go to Tesco.

CatesandAle · 20/07/2026 13:50

Are the men who send them actually doing it to turn women on, though? Or to turn themselves on?

ForWiseRoseCat · 20/07/2026 14:12

I remember being told I was cold and hardwork because I didn't go all giddy over some guy's unwanted dick pic. It looked gross and slimy 🤢.
