What's your biggest turn-on when it comes to dating profile pictures?

[ibwatson@mstdn.party]

@alice oh. My tired brain didn’t see the “wrong answers only part” ‍️

[nshr@hhsocial.de]

@alice MAGA caps are my biggest turn-on (not)

[aprazeth@mstdn.social]

@alice

Honestly, excluding the possibility you meant this ironically and I am missing the entire point I would have to say none of those turn me on.

Most also wouldn't turn me off either, depending the situations.

Except for the slop generated avatar, flaunting of wealth (like waving wads of cash)

The rest, ehh... There might be story behind why they posted it. That fish photo might be a trip they made with close friends, the dog/cat their pet, Smiley's on faces protecting others privacy.

@ibwatson it seemed by the answers that most folx missed the sarcasm, so I made it explicit

[flipper@mastodonapp.uk]

@alice i voted "all cleavage", but just to be clear I mean the "no belt, fixing a sink drain cleavage"

[alice@lgbtqia.space]

@Aprazeth you certainly missed the irony, but apparently so did like half the people answering.

[osteopenia_powers@newsie.social]

@alice
This list is so well thought out and nearly complete that I am surprised it is lacking "in a bar howling, holding a drink and dressed head to foot in licensed fan-wear for some pro-sports team"

[randomgeek@masto.hackers.town]

@alice dogs and cats is both the perfect wrong answer and the perfect right answer. It tells me nothing and everything about the person.

Besides I see “cat” I’m gonna click. Don’t care if the scientific method burns down as a result.

[aprazeth@mstdn.social]

@alice

Ah, well it is not the first time I missed the irony on something.

You could call me... (Yes I am going to make that pun!)

Irony-deficient

[alice@lgbtqia.space]

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".

[shnooflebear@curly.cat]

@alice What do you mean 'hate'?

[faraiwe@mstdn.social]

@jef @alice ...what's the sturgeon's name??

[alice@lgbtqia.space]

@Osteopenia_Powers sadly, I only had so many option slots, so several things didn't make the list.

[alice@lgbtqia.space]

@ShnoofleBear either you voted dog/cat because you like them—and therefore missed the sarcasm, or you got the sarcasm, and picked dog/cat because you don't like them.

[agturcz@circumstances.run]

@alice Lol. Just a mere thought of an AI generated avatar of a person with duck lips, while holding a gun, and my knees are getting weak.

*thud*

Sorry. I've fainted. It was too much.

[rupert@mastodon.nz]

@alice Damn, missed the wrong answers only instruction.
I couldn't bear a dating app where everyone was properly dressed.

[crowjane@mastodon.sdf.org]

@faraiwe @jef @alice

Virgin. Virgin B Sturgeon, not unlike his handler.

[eruonna@lgbtqia.space]

@alice hmm, I'm going to have to update my dating profile when this finished

[eruonna@lgbtqia.space]

@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

[shnooflebear@curly.cat]

@alice I believe missing the "wrong answers only" plays a big role here
