if someone from work found me on here they couldnt do anything about it without revealing themself,

An anonymous e-mail or letter including a link to your profile would do the trick nicely. lol
If people are 100% ok with being found on this site there's no problem with an identifiable picture. If you're not 100% then it would be best to think carefully about what you show in public. Assuming that anyone who finds you will be discreet is a dangerous assumption - they may not know the meaning of the word. A lot of people are going to find Facebook biting their arses in years to come. Once it's out there it stays out there.
but whoever reads the email will still have to check this site out to confirm the suspicion. then if i did get fired i would sue the company, you cant fire someone for what they do in their personal time (obviously excluding illegal activities). this is only a dating site after all.
no its a swinging site and linked to sex.
its not just about my bosss finding out, but the stereotypical connection swingers face. i deal with vulnerable people and my Private activities could be viewed as wrong. no they probally couldnt get me sacked but i wouldnt want to upset. more so i do not want horny little 14 year olds hunting the internet then exposing me to me daughter.
its not just about me but the effect my life has on others.
people can expose people without opening them selves up and like i said some may not care about other knowing what they do.

i have a face pic on my profile tis the same one as my avatar, the reason i have it is that i'm quite proud of it...I had it done about 2 yrs ago an a pro shoot. However after reading the comments on this post I'm seriously considering removing it, I'm not bothered about people recognising me or anything like that as i have no time for people who feel they can comment on my lifestyle with prior stereotypical judgements.. tis jus that a few of the comments have made me think that perhaps i should move into private.
Hmmm

It would be a shame if you did whiplash as it is a great pic, but like you say, it would be there for people to see on your request if you are really worried.
Some times I really wish I could put my face pic on. I'd much rather guys new what I looked like when deciding to message me, but it's not arisk i'm willing to take. Maybe one day if my business ever takes off enough for me to be self supporting and my son has all grown up. Will review in 5 years time smile
We have no worries -
look at it this way:
1. This is not an illegal activity
2. If someone did use the pics they will reveal their identity on here
3. See 2 - they would be open to litigation
4. blackmail or threats of any kind constitutes a crime
5. Swinging is not a crime - it is a lifestyle
6. We dont give a crap lol - my boss would piss himself laughing and say 'fair play - how does he join?' lol
7. We would be famous for 15 minutes - see Warhol-A
So no need to be paranoid - be a proud swinger!! :happy:
There are still a hell of a lot of closed minds in this world and I for one do not wish to put my children through any kind of termoil because someone wishes to be vindictive...
Anyone wishing to "out" a member here can do so without revealing their own identity quite easily so the notion that they are here for the same thing therefore wont bother me doesn't really work...

thats why i wont have a face pic on (havnt any pics on at the moment anyway but used to)
then i would most likely lose my job ... they would find a way to sack me !

:thumbup: I agree .. I do have a face pic in my pics but it's so blurry it looks nothing like the real me and I have a tattoo on display that anyone close to me would recognise so I've taken the risk!
Depends on your own personal comfort at the end of it.
Facebook biting me or any other place is not a problem for us
Frankly - we take every day as it comes - we used to worry about what others think but really its not worth it if it causes you anxiety. Choose the way you reveal yourself in a way you are comfortable - always remember its your choice and not that of others. A photo is a photo and really people who judge are narrow minded if not shallow :P
With reference to the kids thing - mine is grown up so maybe that is why i am not worried so fair comment
We did have some face pics on our profile, but we got recognised. It didn't really cause us any major probs as the guy that saw them was one of my mates. But it was an eye opener... But Jon, if you're reading this, i know you're glad you found the pics.. ha. And for anyone else who's wondering, yes we did all meet up...
But looking back, we got off lucky... So the face pics are off now. Although we do still share and trade pics and movies any stuff on a one to one level...

Bugger, and I'm only just down the road too! :twisted:
I think its really down to personal choice. I know that most people would rather see a face pic before responding to an advert, and its just a shame that our world is so judgemental of the lifestyles of other. I do occasionally send face pics, but having one on a public profile is a brave step that I don't think I'd be comfortable in taking, though i fully respect those who do.
we have our face pics on only cause i keep forgettin to put them into private lol but also couldn't care who saw um let them judge if they wanna makes no odds to me been in mags b4 and like i said to my hubby when he asked what i would do if some1 came up to me and said they saw me in a wank mag i repleyed that i would say "did u enjoy wankin over them then"
if peeps r on ere lookin at our pics then they r upto the same as us so how can they judge
although fully respect those that don't all about freedom of choice

Can certainly see why he was glad he found them :P
Ha. he was glad... And I have to say, sharing your face pics does give you a better response too...

moved here bit more than a year ago, the company I work for is in Italy..family is mostly there too..and my parents both know what I'm upto even if I didn't need to go into details.
in this time I've made precious little friends and most of them through this sort of websites.
I'm single, have no children...so all in all it's still pretty safe for me to put my ugly mug out there.
when things will start rolling, socially, and if I find myself a girlfriend..things may change..untill then, I ain't bovvered.

Yes we have face pics in both of our profiles and have the same outlook as Crashnnix. However it is a personal choice and just because we do have face pics, doesn't mean that we expect the same from others or that it is a sign of being genuine or not.

Here's a good reason to keep your faces off the internet if you are in any sort of employment that has 'disrepute' clauses.
I have my face pics on here - I'm not ashamed of the things I do - life is too short for regrets. If other people can't handle it - sod em I aint bovvered!
lol :lol: :lol: :lol:

I miss his little avatar wink lol
I take the precaution of always wearing this fake 'tache even when I go to work so no-one ever recognises me.

I have face pics. I can't imagine any situation where I would feel threatened by exposure.
My son is an adult. My partner is on here and my work can stuff themselves if they think they get to judge my non-work activities. (Luckilly I don't work with the public or anything.) I'm a 'publish and be damned person'. But I fully appreciate that other people are in a very different position.

Oh we have the same attitude - I found out my Director is on here - what a hoot....I don't give a damn - neither does Nix.....why hide - this is the 21st century and this is a lifestyle choice.
Much respect for thos who choose not to for career reasons or privacy concerns - there is no right or wrong issue with face pics
After a lot of deliberation, I decided to make my face pic public. I figured that most people are on here for the same reasons as myself, and it wouldn't really bother me anyway, if someone I knew discovered me.
I believe that it's a big time saver too ~ people can see what I look like without having to message me and request a pic :shock:
You've all made some very good points about this, but I don't think there's a right or wrong answer. Ultimately, it all depends on each individuals circumstances whether or not any identifying piccies are made public.
this is really me..... rolleyes

And what if you have a clause in your terms and conditions about bringing disrupte to your employers? or if you're in a job that requires CRB checks? - great deal to be paranoid about.
You can be a proud swinger without having to display your face picture.

Not quite! sad
There are a number of occupations particularly in health, education and social sevices, where an employee can be disciplined or even dismissed for being a member of this site. This is not paranoia, it is a reality for a number of people on here.
