The next photo I received was a pantless photo! Needless to say the "relationship" ended right there.

No witty rejoinder?

If a guy is truly fit, then I really like the shirtless photos. In fact, after I'm done with P90X I would even consider posting a photos of myself in a bathing suit. It's so difficult to find people these days who take fitness seriously (even if they are a bit vain about it). What bothers me more is when guys say they work out regularly or do kick-boxing or something that sounds great, but they look chubby in their photos or in person. I hate to say it...but cardiovascular health does not necessarily come through in photos.

Also, in my opinion, someone who is physically fit has shown me that he is disciplined enough to stick to a healthy diet and workout regimen. That type of discipline can carry over into many other areas of life.

Ladies, they may be his pictures, but that doesn't mean he's in them.

I always laugh when women get offended or turned off by a man who shows off his body. It tells me one of two things.

One, the woman lacks self-esteem about her own body and fear a man who may think she isn't very attractive or out of shape.

Two, the woman is narcissistic and wants the man to only be thinking about her body and not his own.

It's funny because any guy that sees a woman in a bikini or showing off her body in her profile is most likely going to LIKE IT.

I think that just goes to show how things work in a relationship. Women demand all the attention and men are willing to give it. Women like to be seen, men like to see.

So I can only guess women aren't interested unless it's about them.
Wow, kinda bitter

I prefer they keep their shirts on until I get them home.

Seriously, unless their pic is taken at the beach, on a boat, during a sporting activity, etc. it just seems a little weird. For both men's and women's pics.

I recently was reading a profile on match.com that seemed really cool and good besides the somewhat creepy looking semi-shirtless photo (he was totally shirtless it was just cut off in the mid-chestal area, so who knows he might have been pantsless too, and he looked to be lying down).

I thought...weird, just doesn't seem consistent with his seemingly normal and nice personality in this profile.

Hilarious, I got to the end and he was like - I am really not meaning to be shirtless in that photo, or creepy, I keep trying to crop out my head but match wont let me do it!

you could detect the frustration, or maybe it was sarcasm and humor, I dont know but it was pretty funny.

The answer to this is simple: If the person looks good shirtless, it's ok. If they don't, then it isn't. The same thing goes with women who wear revealing clothes.

How do ladies feel about pantless photos?
there is really only one rule about shirtless photos ....its okay if you are Fabio. I don't mean someone that looks like Fabio. I mean, you ARE Fabio. So, you are okay.

As for pantsless, again, its okay if you are Fabio, and maybe wearing a kilt instead, or a loincloth or something. Obviously.
