Online Posers

My wife likes to participate in these online picture exchange, e.g. HNT, where people can post pics of themselves in a semi-risque fashion. And they’re assured of some anonymity by not including their faces in the pics. I think it’s neat. You’ll never catch me doing of myself. But why shouldn’t people take some pride in themselves?

Anyway, the problem arises when people aren’t really that proud of themselves. Rather than post their own images, they like to post pics they find online. But because of the nature of these sites, the assumption is that the pics are theirs. See where I’m coming from? Basically, they’re online posers. It’s like taking the pic in the store bought frame and leaving it in there and showing everyone your “family”.

I’m all for being more genuine than this. That is why I always include my face with my pics. If I’m going to do something or take credit, then I want people to know it’s really me they’re dealing with. With that in mind, here is my contribution to the HNT world– face included.

Enjoy!

Don't I look great at 41?
