      It is far more likely that women get get more unsolicited dick pics than men because the majority of dick-owners are attracted to women rather than men. This is a sexual thing. Men frequently hate other men but they don't demonstrate this by sending them pictures of their penis https://twitter.com/CriticalReader7/status/976959253893304321 …

      When men send photos of their dicks to each other it’s because they’d like to see the other guy’s equipment and interact with it physically.

      Yes, I get this. This is because they know this is acceptable tho. You have to be very young, very naive or supremely socially unskilled not to know women don't usually appreciate it.

          I suspect the rationale is like any mass marketing. Among the many rejections will be some few acceptances.

          That’s almost certainly it - and it fits in well with the less picky nature of male sexuality.

          If 1 in 40 women actually likes it or is desperate enough to interact, they still win.

          Tell a man with an erection that there’s a non-zero chance that doing something will lead to him getting laid and he’ll have done it before you finish talking.

          Who told you it was acceptable? I know a lot of guys for who a dick pic is an automatic block. It’s not a small minority - a huge number think it’s crass and annoying. But it happens anyway.

          Hell, my last profile read “if I see your dick before your face, you’re blocked.” - still got them, but they were courteous enough to throw a face in there at the start.
