Well you shouldn't succumb to those requests just because they insist, it's irrelevant what you look like. Part of the charm is the mystery.

Any more than I already am?

Hey, what can you do, nobody's perfect.
I definitely get what you're saying and it's nothing unreasonable to think about, but I wouldn't just send pictures of myself to people online just because they want to, either...I'm doing it because I want to.
I'm the kind of person that thinks that 90% of staying safe online is the responsibility of the person posting pics/logging in/talking to people/whatever (which in this instance would be me)...I mean, shit has happened to me before that involved online safety that I thought I had but truly didn't (my mom married a guy that married her only to get to me because she posted pictures of me at 13 to him, so really it didn't have to do with me directly, but it did involve my safety), but really most of being safe online for me is my responsibility.
So far I haven't yet come across anyone that I've found creepy, but after posting, if I receive any really inappropriate comments or whatever, then I'll remove them, but hopefully that shouldn't be a problem here...at least not as far as I've seen
