Have profile pictures of them in their underwear?

I have only been here a little while, but already noticed lots of pictures of people in tiny underwear? Also I have seen some close ups of just their boobs?

Why cant you upload one of yourself in underwear on threads but you can in your profile?
Does anyone else find it weird too?

    I think it's the easiest way for people to show their progress. My photo is me in a bikini which really isn't any different than underwear :P It's because I'm proud of the progress I've made and it's kind of my motivation to keep going.

    As for the boob shots I don't really understand those either, I guess those people just like to show 'em off hahaha.

    Also even though it's technically against the rules to post underwear pics in the forums, people do it all the time and those threads very rarely get deleted.

    You can't upload any underwear pictures according to the rules, but thankfully they don't enforce that too much. Seriously, how is a bra and panties different than a tiny bikini? I don't think they should ban it anywhere. It's silly and accomplishes nothing.
    People like to post the photos because it makes progress clear. If I posted a photo of me in a t-shirt and shorts, honestly you wouldn't be able to tell I lost a pound. Take the shirt off and t becomes evident that I lost 30lbs. Most people want to lose weight and become more proud of their bodies, that's naturally going to result in people showing what they achieved.

    That being said, I don't see many boob shots and i don't see many underwear photos. Mostly bikinis and workout attire.
    Care to send me the links for the boob ones?

    Why do people set their profile pictures as pictures of their cars? Oh, yeah, because mine is sexy. I almost never question somebody's choice in profile picture. If it makes them happy, then that's all there is to it. People post pictures in their underwear because they're proud of how far they came, and dammit, they look good in their underwear.

    I seen the boobie one last night, sorry I didn't save the link for you haha!

    I have to agree though, I dont mind certain underwear and yes it does show off progress which is loads better and you should be proud of your body..but before I seen a picture of someone in lace underwear, and it just made me think like Eh? this isn't a sex site!

    I guess some just seem a lot more saucier than they are!

    I've seen people purposely post sexy pics just to screw with the moderators. I'm willing to post more revealing pics here than I am FB because this is a supportive community.

    Peoples pictures don't bother me. Their confidence regardless of their progress or size is sexy! Not to mention inspiring.

    Her point wasn't that she thought it was disgusting, just that there was a weird double standard of what you can upload and where.

    Personally, I think people should be allowed to upload underwear/bikini pics on the forums as long as they put "bikini" or "underwear" in the title so people know not to click on it if they'll be offended or just dont want to see it.

    Shows progress better than in clothes, especially when you're doing strength training.
