When your friends post hot pictures on Facebook

[castleview]

I have a few friends in their 30s and 40s who are always putting sexy pictures of themselves on Facebook. Nothing porn-ish, just sensual supermodel types of poses and it looks as if they've been professionally photographed. They are single moms and my husband just assumes they are advertising for a date. While that makes total sense, I thought they were smart enough to not make it obvious. Anyone else get this?

 

[superme80]

Yes! My cousin and my friend do this. Both are single moms. Sadly I think most of the pics look more trashy than pretty. It is just the look they go for. I can't change it. I just ignore the pic and I don't comment on it.

Yes, I have a friend like this.

I can choose to not go to their Facebook page. What bothers me are the people who come to work looking like that.

They come up on my news feed….your coworkers come to work in bikinis and lingerie?

Link?

Link?

LOL. I couldn't do that. Maybe it's just that the last one reached a new point (not sure if it would be high or low). It involved a headshot, candle light and a bra strap.

Wow. Is this what it's come to, to get a date? So glad I'm not in that pool anymore!

I am FB friends with a woman who does that. She is married and has a baby girl, but 90%of the pictures she posts are of her in modeling poses. She's very lovely, but it's kind of weird. She posts them over and over, clogging up my wall. Just once I'd love to comment, "somebody needs a little attention, huh?"

I'm fine with all of that. the problem I have is everybody seems to need to pose for every picture on facebook with an alcoholic beverage in their hand...wine, cosmos, beer. Just looks so immature to me. Especially when it's a 40 year old. The only thing worse is duck face.

Oh my I know we get to make our own decisions as adults, but apparently some adults loose all good judgement.

I have many teacher friends and a few refuse to have FB pages because of their privacy. I had to tell two of them to watch who is taking pictures at parties because there is a picture of them doing ice luge shots on FB.

My niece's mom does this. It's the combo head down but eyes up and duck face with camera held by her over her head look. She is married though, not sure what that's about. She should just post a pic of my niece, she's a lot prettier!

 

[DisneyJunkie4]

When I see that, I try not to judge but part of me thinks it reeks a bit of desperation. People try way too hard on facebook to be liked. Whatever happened to being your authentic self?

 

[WowLookAtThat]

I usually ignore the attention pics what gets me is when the profile pic is of their kids or a baby and the post is "Party tonight! Going to get wasted"
This isn't from my friends my age (that bugs me too) but from an aunt of mine. I mean...really? You are going to post that while your picture is your grandson at a baseball game?!

Wow, three strikes with just one pitch

That's how it seems to me, too. And it doesn't matter the age, gender, or sexual orientation. It always looks sad, pitiful, and desperate.

Almost all self-taken photos do, too, unless the location is the main reason for posting (like on vacation with some kind of location icon in the background), or if someone else is in the photo with the person where it just looks like fun photo booth type pictures.

i used to have a FB friend who did this. VERY provocative poses of her in lingerie, usually on a bed. i got a job in a church about 18 months ago, and i had to delete her (i'd wanted to do it for months, and just didn't have the heart). wasn't a big loss, we were never really friends-she actually hit on my DH (before we got married) once while he and i were out on a date. i almost made a greasy spot out of her. i'm not really sure why i accepted her friend request in the first place. temporary insanity, i guess.

And even worse someone in their 30s or 40s doing the duckface. I got on FB partially to meet new people so I have a lot of people I don't really know in my friends list. I have several professional models, some only post real classy super model legit shots, not really porn ish. But some do. I think if you're in your 20s for me anyway it seems to not be a big deal. I think either just a legit model promoting, or an immature girl trying to get attention.

Now I have a few in their late 30s or 40s posting really almost porn type pics, although I love women, it really does make them look skanky IMO and sad. A woman in their 40s still trying to act 20 to me is just

This same woman that was the worst at it, who wasn't pretty enough to look like a model even if she was in her 20s just got married to some kid that was like 15 or 20 years or more younger than she is I wanted to post, yeah good luck with that cougar marriage babe. I'm sure when your 65 and look like the crypt keeper from all of your over tanning and he's like 45 (if you make it that far) he's going to bolt faster than a colt at the Kentucky Derby (Not that there's anything wrong with that.)

Oh and I love the sexy girls that post sexy pics and just watch the loser guys line up with the over the top compliments, I've literally seen stuff like this:

"You are the most gorgeous woman on earth"

"Breathtaking"

"You are an angel sent from God"

On and on and on. I'm thinking wow, these girls egos must be off the chart. I rarely if ever post a compliment on these pics simply because I don't want to blend in with the tools that do. So its like, I can't even give someone a compliment because its just ridiculous at that point. You are 1 in 50 other losers and I don't want to be "that guy." Unless its a close real friend then that's different.

There is this one legit super model I have in my friends list. She is actually a really sweet down to earth girl, we've talked several times because we have several things in common. She is always posting professional pics, not very many at all that are sexy, just really great pro shots. But the guys still line up one after the other with the super cheesy over the top compliments which prevents me from saying anything at all. As sweet as that girl is, I'm sure her ego is off the charts. In her defense she is the most gorgeous girl on earth
