In reading the first link google returned (with much trepidation) the short answer is that the dudebros who send dick pic are mostly motivated by harassment/power tripping, with some added insanity, cluelessness, grossness, confusion caused by porn, and overall horribleness. One stated that his only value as a human was that he had genitals. One stated that his only value as a human was that he had genitals.
Iāll man up and google it and see ā itās just something thatās so foreign to me.
Boy I hope I didnāt come across as all high and mighty.
Well no, after all, saying that youāre a better man than those who send unsolicited dick pics isnāt a way of elevating yourself all THAT high above the rest of humanity.
Iād rather see men āman upā in such cases by pondering and then owning up to their own actions. Sure, they donāt send dick pics, but ASSERTING that they would never do that and that they just canāt understand why others would, seems to be, as I said, a way of actually saying something about themselves. If so, why do they want to assert soemthing about themselves at such moments? And really, how does that even benefit anyone but themselves?
Yeah I was just making a joke
I think most people when they say āI would never do Xā is a way of saying āI donāt get itā or a much longer way of saying āwtfā. But ā¦ I have three daughters so I guess should understand these trends Aside from that, next time I want to say āI would neverā Iāll just say nothing or say wtf.
Gaah!
You so Tricky.
Iām incorrigible.
I also lick the tears of these fucking harrassers.
May you be so forever more.
Hi, Iād like to add you to my professional network on LinkedIn.
I get dick pics on word games on my phone. If thereās the ability to upload a photo, some guys are absolutely certain that it needs to be their tallywhacker. My husband suggested theyāre trying to get opponents to forfeit the game (he says heād quit a game if his opponent had a dick pic). But when I donāt reply to their messages, Mr. DickyMcDickerson will forfeit the game 100% of the time.
So there are at least some men who really and truly seem to think that a random woman will want to talk about how much she likes their meat scepter. And theyāre gonna keep moving on until they find her.
I had no idea this could be a thing. Is there no āreport harassmentā thing in the game(s)? If there isnāt you should try to contact the developer to tell them they need to add this ASAP, and mention youāre being harassed with dick pics by creepers. Thatās just unconscionably horrible.
Itās all about ethics in penis journalism.
Yeah, you can block a player, but you canāt report them. So they just traipse off to show their womb warrior to someone else. I did end up emailing the developer - after a guy with a cartoon penis as his picture kept messaging me asking if I liked it - and they said a report function was āplanned for the futureā. I uninstalled it.
Iām a developer (though not a game dev.) - if I got a āusers are sending dick picsā ticket, there would be a P1 bug to figure out a way to hellban those users and an update with a fix ASAP. Iād really want to find a way to id those images and if confirmed post them to everyone in their social networks.
Damn, beat me to it!
I took this screenshot of one of the very few times I replied to a guyās messages. He actually posted the dick pic after I stopped replying, I guess in an attempt to rekindle my interest (Iād only replied in the first place because I was drunk, and at the movies waiting for it to start.)
He apparently thought I was āAsianā because there was a paper parasol behind me in the photo. So a side of fetishism to boot!
If we can train ārandom forest decision treesā to id pics of cats, we can do the same with dicks.
In fact, that could be a billion dollar business.
Of course then there would be the inevitable Dick Race, where users tried to circumvent the Classifiers. But if you integrated a āname and shameā component to validated classifications, you could really make a dent. (Similar to what the woman in this article is doing)
