Actually some persons feel that chicks avatar attract more profile views. To have that they might be doing this. For me profile views dont matter much. For me quality of the answer is more important. Give such answer that it motivates the reader to know more about u. If ur answer motivates the reader this way, he/she will certainly go to ur profile to know about the answerer. I am using a secular avatar which includes symbols of mostly all the religions of the world. I would have used my real picture also but I have experienced that real picture on the net is sometimes misused so I avoided using my real picture here in this forum. This is what I feel. I hope it satisfies you.

Thanks. This is pretty much what I figured. It was weird to me at first. I like your avatar. I'm wondering if any of the dudes-as-chics will respond themselves. I want to hear it from the horses' mouth. :)

I posted a discussion this yesterday and basically got the same answer that it's just to get attention. I think it's pathetic. I see the majority of the ones that do it are from certain countries as well.
My thinking is if you are judging a forum by a picture, those people are extremely shallow.

Yes, I see what you are saying. It is interesting to see this global community and the similarities and differences. yeah, I noticed after I had posted mine that there was another one--sorry! I think it is just a different mindset. Either protecting privacy or just thinking that is what everyone does so it is normal.
