Why do the majority of new profiles not include private pics. They usually have one pic posted. Are they afraid to post any? Do they not know in order to to get people to like them they need as many friend requests and views as possible? Are they just needing time to get some made? I really don't know just asking.
Maybe they are still setting up tbeir accounts and getting comfortable witb everything...
I think it can be somewhat scary posting not only non-private pics on swinger sites "at first" let alone private. I was for Me anyway. In a short matter of time I became more, then much more comfortable with the process ~
We live by the rule that if they're reluctant to share pictures on their profile, they're probably reluctant to go through with anything anyway, so we just ignore messages and friend requests from people like that. It usually never leads to anything anyway. That's an opinion that has been forged over several years of experience and it saves us well.

We'll take it a step further and say if there aren't pics of both him and her somewhere in the profile, we have no interest. Personality and a good sense of humor go a long way, but in this lifesryle physical attraction is important too


Agreed. We even note that in our profile and we still get tons of friend requests and messages from people without pics.
Everyone has their "good side" when taking photos (or a pic from years ago when they looked different). Those are fine to post but we find it somewhat disconcerting when there are no honest pictures as well. We try to post the "good ones" AND more normal pics so that when a couple meet us they aren't wondering if we are the same couple from the profile. So go ahead and post the pic from that angle that takes 10 pounds off but post others as well.
My policy is unless you have face pics in your private profile or are willing to share them with me, I will be hesitant to accept a request. I have face pics in my private album and I don't want them to be seen unless its with a potential (serious) playmate. If their profile has an explanation as to the lack of pics, I will be more understanding, but still hesitant to share my private photos with them until we chat and get a feel for each other.
It's all about comfort. Plus an attraction to what people want to share.
We never send friend requests we have plenty of pics but we're here to do this swing thing aren't we? So we have body pics in public but full pics in private because you wanna see what you're getting beforehand lol but nothing we care gets stolen (yes you can steal pics from site) but all our people know what we are so it's fine.
But there is alot of people who restrict because of jobs or social status.
