Why is it that when people post pictures of themselves on here to ask...?

Question

.... Am I pretty, am I ugly, do you like my eyes, are my ears too big, do you like my eyebrows, etc....

and they provide the worst possible picture for us to judge?

Like in a lot of the 'am I pretty/attractive' pictures, they are pulling a stupid face instead of just showing a normal expression. Or 'do you like my eyebrows', and they give us a picture where only ONE eyebrow is shown and their eyebrow is really raised. Or some post super blurry pictures too.

Sorry, it's a rant of mine. It just drives me nuts when people seem serious in wanting answers but they give us dumb pictures to judge by.

Does anyone else feel the same way or has ever noticed?

Answer 1

I figure it's the 11 to 14 age group.  Some need reassurance that they are okay to others because they probably get teased a lot at school.

Answer 2

totally agree

Answer 3

People always post the picture that they think they look the best in.

Unfortunately, most people are ugly. So they have to deliberately take bad photos to hide their ugliness.

Basically, the worse the quality of the picture, the uglier they probably are in real life.

If you are pretty, you don't have to resort to creative photography. You can just take a normal picture and post it.

For example, if they are ugly, they have to post a picture that looks blurry because a clear picture makes them look ugly.

If they are fat, they have to post a picture where they are looking up at the camera to hide their double chin and fat body.

If they have bad skin, they have to post a black and white picture.

If they post a blurry, black and white, picture that is shot from above, then they are probably hideous beyond all reason.

Answer 8

You asked 2 questions here. 1st one would be because they are having fun and want to share it.

The 2nd one I'm sure someone else feels the same way and has noticed.

Answer 9

AMEN!  The pictures are usually 3 shades of terrible.  But I have often wondered if anybody but me realizes that.  Sometimes I think I might be super criticle of photos.  But shouldn't everyone be able to tell if the picture is fuzzy?
