Is that picture really you?

Posted by kevingoodman • 1/15/08 • Subscribe to this Discussion [RSS] • Report This Topic

I have seen a few profiles with hot sexy women showing on the image only to turn out to be boys. I never trust pictures anyways and I’m happily married and loyal so I don’t really care what you look like. But I am curious if that picture is really you and if not why you are using it?

BassDem

This picture is of me, but it's shaded just enough so that you can't really tell who it is. The pic actually turned out that way when I took it, but I intentionally use it as an avatar because I like the level of uncertainty. It's actually a safety precaution on my part. I have to seriously consider that my blog could put me in harm's way living so close to so many gun toting conservative southerners, especially this close to Texas. I'm not exactly holding back in my Blogger profile or on Myspace you see. I've already been threatened physically elsewhere on the net by a few people, so there is some legitimacy to my concerns. How's that for a story behind an avatar?
