I've been having some fun with a new digital camera, and eventually posted some, er, "intimate close-ups" on a amateur picture site I recently discovered.
This particular site allows for viewer comments to be posted and message-sending between all who are registered. It's kinda disappointing but not at all surprising that most of the comments I've gotten have been from other men. While that's not my thing, I just take a compliment as a compliment, and whatever floats somebody else's boat is just fine with me.
However, this morning I was on the site and found a message from some guy who asked about BUYING pictures from me!! I was like, "What-the-frigg?!?!" Then I looked up the guy's profile, and it turns out he's in his late 50s. I've certainly got nothing against anybody that age being on a nudie site, but it just automatically made me think of a dirty old man going around feeling up kids and creeped me out.
Maybe I'm off the mark, but to me, there's just a big difference between being on a site like that and simply telling somebody, "Hey, nice pics!" (heck, that's kinda the whole point) and making an out-and-out proposition involving money. Heck, one guy even asked if I'd ever been the "other man" in a threesome, and I just took it as an honest question. He didn't actually ASK for something.
I'll say it again: "Ewwwww!"

> And 50 isn't that old! ;)
I know! But 1) I did day "LATE 50s," ;) and 2) it's not the age itself, just that he's that much older than me and making such a proposition. It'd be like me wanting to buy pics of a high-schooler.
Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending upon one's perspective), that's an inevitability
So you're not looking for a daddy?
Yeah, I would see about restrictions, to maybe women only or younger people in general if you can, otherwise I would ignore the creepy ones. Don't blame you though, it's not really the age so much, but the way they talk that would give me the creepies. Though I can also see the age thing being gross. I personally would never post on a place like that, if only to avoid getting the creeps. LOL
So you honestly think it's gross for an older person to be interested in a younger person when everyone involved is an adult?
As for me myself I would not ever be involved with anyone older or younger more than ten years. Just my thing.
You got it! The age thing is secondary. The big thing is how it was just a blunt proposition.
Hey, if it was the same person just trying to start a conversation, I wouldn't give it a second thought. However, when I envision somebody offering to pay for favors over the internet without even a hint of tact, it just strikes me as a rather predatory approach, *especially* considering his age--not *because* of it.
P.S. Sorry for the late reply. I'm still having issues with my adware blocker stopping the pages from downloading completely.
