Not shaming anyone or judging, but just asking the question, how safe is it really to post photos and videos including your faces? We don’t do it and won’t and it’s totally people’s choices, but doesn’t this backfire on people? Neighbours, family, employers, children, friends? Genuinely curious. |

I see why people don't and that's totally there choice and understandable.
I always think if people recognise me in the real world and have a problem, it's just that, there problem, and quite frankly I don't give a dam. |

I mean we post enough pics so someone could probably do a crime watch type photo fit of us 
We wouldn’t post full face pics on here as it’s the least safest site we use. People can take a screenshot whereas all other sites we use they can’t, so we’d be more inclined to share our face on those.

Would say for straight single guys it’s probably a must as indicates they are not afraid to be seen on here. For bisexual and gay single guys not posting their face would probably be safer, as sadly we still have some people in our society who are not open to all secualities. And if they are not openly gay/bi with their friends then probably don’t want to be outed by being on here.
For couples it’s more about discretion. We know there are a lot of anonymous photo gatherers on here or people who would not be discrete in a vanilla setting. And also some that could cause issues for us elsewhere in life. So choose not to show faces.
As for single ladies I think from a safety point of view no face is pics are understandable
That may seem a bit sexist but it probably depends what |

We think it largely depends on where people are at in their lives as to whether they wish to have maximum confidentiality or are happy to post videos including faces. For example if they are retired they might be less worried about being ‘outed’. We don’t publicly post our face videos / photos on here but are happy to share videos/ photos including our faces with couples we have built up trust with. Always go with what you’re comfortable with though. Couples/ individuals should never allow themselves to be pressured into posting/sharing images they’d rather keep private for whatever justifiable reasons. |

Why is it a must for single men but a matter of discretion for you and safety for single ladies? Aren’t single men allowed to be discreet and/or safe? From my personal experience the single male profiles on here are the most genuine and honest ones, most of the ‘couples’ profiles I’ve spoken to have obviously just been single men so I struggle to trust any of them. |

Because there are a lot of guys that say they are single but clearly are not.
As with everything verifications go a long way to ease those concerns but if you are a new single guy to the scene and looking for meets and don’t want to attend clubs or socials and haven’t got any verifications then a face pic is probably going to improve chances of getting a meet or coming across as trustworthy/reliable etc. |

Great question, I dont post my face but im happy to send in a private chat setting.
Im just conscious that my job is very public and I wouldn't want someone I work with recognising me and bringing it up at work |

I have wondered the same op and I've also seen lots of people who say they're cheating, with full face pics.
It's not something I'd be comfortable with, I wouldn't want approaching away from here when I'm out and about or at work.
My partner is here too, so I don't have anything to hide, but think it's unwise to put an explicit pic out there, with an identifiable face shot. |
