      I know it is quite common to ask in gay dating apps. Many people in there have a full set of naked photos that they send out to others on request.

      I’m not so sure about women.

        oh yeah, I’m a woman so I forgot about gays. But women usually don’t like it nor ask for it

      I have a friend who solicits deck pics in her dating apps. Unfortunately the only men I meet who meet my standards for dating her end up being either gay or super gay.

      Presumably, like spam, one would guess that it works sufficiently often to make it worth the attempt? 🤢🙃😅

        I would guess that, for the people sending them unsolicited, it’s like the fastest way to get a smash/pass answer. It’s saying “I want to sex you, here’s what I got,” in two seconds rather than the colossal effort to type out two complete sentences. There’s also some unique psychology learning/behavior math that makes the stimulus (dick pic in this case) and its lower successes more likely to continue.

      I remember a news story about a woman who was collecting dick pics. She worked for some dating app I believe and had to review reported messages.

      She had about 30 000. So it might be solicited to her.
