Girls that post cleave-shots with hooker make-up and complain about all the creepy messages they get from men
THIS!!!!0 -
Maybe I'm old...but to me there is a difference between a bikini and lacy unmentionables.
They are not unmentionables if you are creating a thread about them
First rule of the club....0 -
I agree with you. Pictures posted on the Internet live forever and can find themselves resurfacing in strange places. Would you want a future potential employer seeing that you posted a photo of yourself in your underwear on the Internet? ... Or a college admissions officer? Do you want to put yourself out there for online perverts to view? Underwear in our culture is considered private and has more of a sexual connotation than bathing suits.
What if the person in the scantily claid pictures is already college educated, self employed, and maybe an exhibitionist.
Ya never know...
The MAIN reason I put myself out there, is for online perverts to view, and then have them tell me I'm pretty.0 -
This made me go 'hmmm'
does that count?!
hahah boom!0 -
Underwear pictures?! On the Internet!?
I. AM. OUTRAGED.
THIS ^^^ LOL!! ...no kidding! Do you remember the song, "Strange things are happening" in Toy Story? Makes me think about that, in a rather loud and sarcastic way....lol0 -
My husband and I have actually discussed this and in his opinion there is a huge difference between a bikini and underwear. I worry that women may not realize that some men are taking advantage of the photos women post of themselves in their bra and panties.0

Take advantage such as?? Catfishing others or taking the picture for the spank bank?0 -

I love meta. Thank you for noticing.What baffles me the most are the ones where people are so worried about what other people are doing that they create call-outs on other people's behavior either to "vent," cryptically make fun of, or set some personal form of children's etiquette among adults on an all-adults website.

I agree Monica. Would you walk around in public or on our beaches in your underwear....not likely. It is for the reaction!
Oh ****e, here goes...ready for the flames to begin...was flipping through the topics to see where I could post something kind of important to every overweight person out there. Didn't know what section to post, came into this one for the 1st time, saw this thread and can't help myself.
A quick scroll through the posts shows the age range of people who are just fine with this and the few who find it lacking in good taste. It's the same trend that's been going on since, well.. forever. It's called a generation gap. I'm 51, pretty open minded i my advanced age, as I grew up in the 70s..sex and drugs and rock and roll era if you chose to partake.However, I wouldn't be caught dead posting a pic of myself in bra and panties. Not that anyone would actually want to see that anyway, hell I don't want to see that right now at my weight....but before you young 20 somethings go off on us old farts, give us a break. We were brought up differently. The guys were REALLY good looking, but they wouldn't have thought of buying their jeans 3 sizes too big and wear them around their knees with their jockeys hanging out. No teen girl I knew would ever get out of the house wearing thong underwear (something I still don't get...why anyone would actually want what amounts to dental floss between the butt cheeks all day long is beyond me anyway), halter tops, or skirts so short they almost showcased one's crotch when walking, let alone if you had to bend over, Hell, we weren't even allowed to wear makeup until high school. I remember walking into my son's jr. high school a few years back and was amazed at how scantily the girls were dressing and how much lipgloss, eyeshadow and eye liner they were sporting. These are just girls barely into puberty.
My parents generation basically hated our music, especially heavy metal, but even what is now known as classic rock was thought of as noise. They hated the long hair on the guys which was the style back then. They thought bell bottoms looked ridiculous, elephant pants even more so. But although they hated those sort of things, they let a lot slide...except the modesty issue. If a girl went around town dressed in a halter top and hot pants (yes, that's what they were called back then) with their butt cheeks hanging out they were labeled a slut. Period. (and yeah, I so wanted a certain halter top but parents said no dice) So you sure as hell didn't roam around your own home in a bra and panties, especially if you had "Dad" and brothers in the house. The thought of a woman posting a pic of themselves donning a bra and panties would have sent my poor folks over the edge for good.
So that's where us old farts are coming from. Just you wait....you will have your own kids someday and they will think you all are dinosaurs and so unreasonable in your thinking, although I don't know how much farther the envelope can be pushed. I'm sorry but I guess I have grown to be like the parents I used to rebel against. I don't get sexting, I don't get phone sex, why young girls don't believe oral sex is really sex and will freely give out that service for "fun". I don't get why you guys text each other a zillion times per day or why you have 2000 friends on Facebook, I don't even think I'm acquainted with 2000 people, let alone would I let 2000 people view all my family photos, hometown, where I'm living now, if I'm married, single or "it's complicated", and details of my daily life, complete with a GPS broadcasting my current location. I'll just leave my door unlocked for you for when you find out I'm out having drinks with friends 50 miles from my home. That way you won't have to break the door down when you come and steal my flat screen and laptop. As long as I am on my rant because you all ganged up on two people who my guess is are in my age group...why do you all post pictures of yourself trashed or post that you went out drinking with your buds and laugh about how wasted you were? My husband came up with a good point about posting pics of yourself in your underwear. You do know that this is the internet and nothing is ever deleted, even when it's deleted, correct? You do know that potential and current employers make it a practice to search for you on Facebook and any other public forums, right? Colleges do it when deciding if they want you as a student. Landlords do it to see if they want you as a tenant. Banks do it for credit cards, loans and mortgages. Google even has a nifty app that will find your pictures online, anywhere online. Right click and you will show up and people who look similar to you. So go on....keep posting this stuff. See what happens as you go through life.
OKay, I'm done. You youngin's can have a field day on me now. I'm ready for it.

I'm 29 years old and I completely agree with this! This is also one of the reason I don't do face book or twitter or whatever else is out there. Pretty soon all those people will be twittfaced and I'll want to throw my book at them. My two daughters will be raised with character and integrity no questions about that!0 -
another one that gets me on this is why people care so much what other people are doing... and in the grand scheme of things... this isn't even close to bad
infact it's laughable that "unmentionables" are shocking and the only gripe in peoples lives
there are people killing each other all the time, drug dealers and much much worse to be worrying about someone posting a few pictures in underwear on a forum to show progress and maybe get a few positive comments from people
i applaude any woman that is that comfortable in her skin to do so
as for illict use of these pictures... you wouldn't believe how much porn is on the internet... like seriously free to view at any time sites the same as youtube but for porn and if you think some random lady posting underwear pictures is the highlight of the internet... you're very much misinformed0 -
It will never cease to amaze me how offended people are by the human body. Nakedness =/= sexuality. We should all walk around naked.
Hmmmm, frostbite in summer, sunburn in winter0 -
People do a lot of things for attention around here. And I don't think that people are necessarily "offended" by the human body, but there is an appropriate time and place to show skin. Some people have trouble figuring that out.0

My only request is if you do post underwear pics at least make sure they are nice ones!
No one wants to see your grungy grannie panties
Speak for yourself! At my age, old grannie panties are looking pretty hot!
Seriously though, I believe that it up to the poster on what they wear for their progress photos. If you do not condone what someone is wearing, simply solution, MOVE ON TO THE NEXT SUBJECT!0 -

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I am 27 and i COMPLETLY agree!!! These people need to learn to leave something to the imagination!0 -
Definitely way too many underwear pics and cleavage shots on here. I especially hate when women send them to me via private messaging. :noway:0

Nothing to do with age, it's down to your mentality. I'm older than you and have no problems with whatever people choose to photograph themselves in.0 -

Preach! You only attract the kind of guys you dress/act for! You want a good guy? Dress less like a hooker. Lady in the streets, hooker in the sheets! C'mon...
And if you want an age prospective...I'm 27 and have always felt this way!0 -
Unless you don't have a bikini....what the heck does it matter to you, if I'm in a bikini my panties or nothing at all!
Oh and by the way I'm 45..and I'm not to old to wear my panties in a pic
are you wearing pants in your display photo? *you go girl*0 -
the posts where I can't tell if it's a child hacker or a mod trying to see if people will mod bully really ridiculous questions...... but usually shortly after my "hmmmmmm..." the problem is solved, either the thread is deleted or some people are mob answering and taking it seriously.... and then I can move on with my negative energy and go back to logging venison steaks.0

Sweet! So how do I dress for a guy who realizes that the way a woman's dressed doesn't give him the right to be a creepy sexual predator? I know you obviously don't believe they exist (or else you wouldn't tout that one needs to dress a certain way lest all men suddenly lose their humanity and befall some scantily clad woman), but I'd like to give it a shot.0 -

I don't think I could possibly care less what people do in their display pictures.0

I think people have done a lot of hard work and want to show off their results.
Swim suit, underwear, strategically-placed Photoshop box, whatever best shows off the change, I really don't blame anyone for it.
If they are feeling shy, they can easily crop out their face, hide it with a flash, or blur it out.
I always thought MFP needed a slightly less restrictive policy on progress pics, even if it means a "mature enough to handle it" section.0 -

I am not having the same reaction to your display picture.
