why should you have to put something like that on your profile?? That's ridiculous. People should just know better and be here for the right reason. That guy was a total jerk. He was the wrong one. Women don't have to publish an encyclopedia of unacceptable behavior on guys trolling the web site for hook ups. The guys like this are the wrong ones. Why the F&*k don't they put on their profile that all there here for is to hook up with women? That would solve it too, wouldn't it?
Oh my gosh this is classic! That's right *snaps in Z formation*0 -
Obviously some people in this thread have received the same attention that OP received and live for it and thrive on it. That's alright. Hopefully they don't run into any trouble with that kind of attention in the real world.
And the passive aggressive attacks against all who disagree begin...

Trying to dictate proper behavior to others on an internet site is futile. All you can do is change your own. If you refuse to change what you do, and instead cry "others must change to accommodate me" you are just complaining.
Then MFP should give users more privacy options if they are just going to let stuff like this happen.
Don't add friends and you can have all the privacy you want! Friends aren't a necessity to use this site.
Creepers can still send messages though. Doesn't matter if you friend someone or not. So actually, you don't!
Put your profile on private and stay out of any flirtatious threads and creepers will have no interest in you.
If you have inappropriate pm's report them to the mods.
Take control of your life, don't let others control it for you, and for peat's sake don't try to control others lives!
Not true, you don't have to post in those *kitten* threads to receive unwanted messages.
You must be quite desirable if you post nothing provocative, stay out of the BS threads and still get stalked.
Yes it must be tough; but for me Odes 1/4 eaten pecan pie has me thinking of PMing them. It looks really good- - -no I'm not saying it is a good or bad food. More yummy is a term I'll use to describe the pic. . . . .

But then what would provide the drama?
and how would you discreetly brag about how hot your profile pic is?
Seriously, there is a good reason for not posting photos if privacy is a concern for you.
Second part true. First part, I confused.
I just don't understand why it is necessary to start a thread about this --- ignore the creeper and move on --- but it is a subtle way to bring attention to one's self/selfie.

You might as well say anyone can contact you and comment on your weight, your looks, and ask for naked pictures or suggest anything they like! which can happen in public too....but really, why should that be allowed here??? Telling someone attractive "don't put up your picture then" is like the old "she was asking for it by dressing that way"…..and have you seen the naked body shots here..male and female? In our absorbed SELFIE NATION someone modest, or not willing to strip to show abs is told to like it or lump it. You don't have to be a "feminist" to expect courtesy and some level of manners.
I had a person 'friend' within 2 minutes when I got here, and all I saw was a his ID name, no photo, NO other info. period. So I had to write and ask who he was, etc. Turns out he offers a ton of great links and info, IS a person I want to know, but noway to tell…people here FORGET this after a while if they are not 'public' to anyone but their existing friends…. the POINT of MFP for many is the SUPPORT, so staying invisible removes that option.
'Don't let the CICO fascists dictate your diet program' I want to party with you. Wow. I hope I quoted this correctly. The site is what you make of it.....just avoid the fascists. . . . .heheheh .. . . . . . .

-- but it is a subtle way to bring attention to one's self/selfie.
My intentions were never to "bring attention to my selfie". Give me a break. That's ridiculous. Grow up please.

The only person to mention selfies...is a 65 YO woman. I mean, good luck with the whole 'grow up' aspect. I believe there have been many good points provided to you OP, best of luck.

I write them essays in response to their initial contact. One has been on phonoaesthetics, another on biosemiotics, and yet another on the ancient Greek practice of Orgia. Weirdly, I never receive a follow up.0

Thank you all for the support. I don't believe anything I said should have gotten me any attitude from anyone. I think that I will discontinue the support from this site. I do not need negativity in my life. Thank you good luck and God Bless.0
