      A pic where he is playing with kids might actually work in that primitive sort of way.

    Living in the Midwest, this is also super common on women’s dating profiles. I’d estimate probably more than 1 out of every 10 has a fish

        When do you have pics taken of you? Especially as a man it can be that you have a very limited selection of pics. Selfies are another matter.

            Look at this guy, with his friends!

            I’m joking, but of my friends I’m the only one who brings a camera to stuff and takes pictures, and everybody groans when I do it. If I weren’t there there’d be no pictures, and there are no pictures of me because I’m behind the camera!

            Most guys just don’t take pictures of each other.

              And a lot of guys don’t honestly have that many friends. Compoud those two and you won’t have much pics of you taken.

                  I saw a study from Finland that said that most men only have a few friends, a lot don’t have any. I guess I’m typical in the sense that I have a few friends and we don’t see that often. So not many photos of me taken by friends.

                  Of course there’s cultural aspect here, we Finns are what we are and also maybe other languages or cultures use the word more casually etc. But from what I’ve seen and read online, I don’t think having zero to only few friends is a Finnish peculiarity but rather pretty common at least in the West or maybe just Northern Europe and similar-ish cultures.

    The last time I made anything like a profile for tinder was when I made one for PoF back in the before times, in the long-long ago, the year 2007. I didn’t have fish pictures, but I did have a picture of me riding a unicycle.

    It was more effective than I expected.

    You gotta understand just how few pictures men have of themselves. Most of us aren’t randomly taking selfies; a lot of us don’t even have pictures of us with our friends.

      The point is the effort. Dating takes effort. If you can’t even make the effort to ensure you get a nice pic or two of yourself, how much effort are you going to put into a relationship?

      There are very easy ways to take pics of yourself without it being a selfie nowadays. Phone tripods with Bluetooth remotes exsist for $25 off Amazon.

      “We just don’t have pics of ourselves.” …so take some, instead I of just rolling over and saying “oh well.”

    It is customary among her people that the man bring a leg of a lingta to the first courtship dinner. Make sure it’s fresh, as if you had just killed it. Then use the leg to sweep aside everything on the table and declare in a loud voice, “I have brought you this! From this day, I wish to provide food for you and your House! All I ask is to share your company and do honor to your name!”

      It’s actually spelt LIngta’ but maybe closer to LIngt’a’ or to be specific a LIngt’a’ Haj’dob mev’obDeSna. Translated to English is roughly ‘I am certain that this Lingta leg will feed you’. But Klingons are lazy so it’s shortened to LIngta.

    I know a fair amount of girls from Minnesota and Oregon who would like that because they’re into fishing themselves. They grew up fishing with their fathers.

      Highly agree. I love fishkeeping, so finding a dude that likes it too would be great… as long as they semi-understand what they’re talking about. No tropical fish without heaters, or tanks that aren’t properly cycled for example…
