@eruonna both.

Wrong answers only.
Photo taken inside a car!
WTAF???
And, if this is your only private space, does that mean you are married and cheating?

@alice May I introduce you to Jonathan the Sturgeon Guy

@alice I remember two pictures from my now-spouse's OkCupid dating profile.
One was a sexy beach pic. Specifically, it was a windswept, overcast, PNW beach and she was wearing foul weather gear and looking at a collection of seal bones.
The other was a fuck pic. Or rather, a clothed picture of her grinning and extending her middle finger, saying "fuck you!" She told me later this was in the event one of her exes found her profile.

@alice Damn, missed the wrong answers only instruction.
I couldn't bear a dating app where everyone was properly dressed. -
@alice I tried, for years, to talk to the "guys holding fish" about if they would take me fishing as a date and it was always: "oh that was one time on my buddy's boat" or "oh, that was from a trip" or "we were on a charter boat"
They NEVER actually FISH!!!!
@pencilears @alice IDK I matched with a guy who was an actual fishing guide once
but I was like six inches taller than him and not Roman Catholic so it wasn't going to work, alas

When this is done, I should commission an artist¹ to make this scientifically accurate, world's hottest profile pic, using AI.
¹ Like a real one, not a "prompt engineer".

@alice honestly, if your picture were an AI-generated dog holding a gun doing duck lips with its dick out, I'd probably at least give you a second look
@alice or doing dick lips with its duck out?

Similar experience matching and chatting with women who have a picture of themselves river rafting/rock climbing/skydiving/outdoorsy-ing. I now subconsciously caption those photos "here's that one and only time ever I did [activity] that I have no intention of doing again but posted because I want you to think I am adventurous. Also, it was eight years ago."
I am betting that straight men do this constantly. Seems very much like a dude thing.

I know someone whose second marriage, late in life, was happy while they could both go bass fishing all the time and be silent together. Then they got too frail to do that and everything fell apart.
