Question Question for the girls!!!!

Hello,
as some known I'm actually in Ibiza.
Yesterday when clubbing in a not famous club in an hard house night... Therefore went there with my UV stuff, etc...
I was the only one with the official dancer(a girl) dress like that...
Within 3-4 min on the podium (I like podium! lol), 6 english girls, just came with me, play a bit as slappers... and then where all happy to take them in picture with me...

Therefore now is my question
Girls, do you often ask people that you don't know to take picture of them with you, just to show your friend when you come back? Or is it only an english stuff??? I found this weird...
Anyway would like to have some comments or point of view about that topic which is definetely another topic than emails...

See Ya
Ludo

I've never encountered that, unless the person is a celebrity or was memorable in some way. Maybe you were just memorable?

lol I don't think that I was memorable!
There was having much more handsome guy than me I think ...
And I was not off my face... just a very common guy on a podium...
Ok my trousers can be a bit memorable for some people, but they didn't take a picture of it! lol

Anyway, I'm quite happy to see that it is not a common thing for girls to do so

Yeah munchkin, I'm having a good time out there

And I will definetely think now that these girls were perhaps a bit drunk or was thinking that I was famous!
As long as I don't looks like Rowan Atkinson (Mr Bean) or the prince Charles.... That's allright for me

P.S: Munchkin if you want a postcard, pv me your address and I will post you one. For thanking you to have answer all my questions that I had ask you in pv msg!

I don't know if we have any female members left on the forum. Most forums have a gender icon (which is optional on most forums), but here this is not the case.

I don't mind being photographed, but I'm a man. It is of course more polite to ask first, but generally I wouldn't mind.

I think a lot depends on context. I perform my arts on stage, so it would be odd to then refuse being photographed. If I choose to be on a stage in front of an audience, being photographed is part of the deal. Usually even the organiser takes photos of all performers during the night.




I'm curious now what the sex ratio would be on this forum. It seems some active female members of the past have left or only post sporadically.

This site is approximately 26 years old, so I guess some of the original members must have passed away, as we all will when our time comes.
However I guess most of those that don't come here anymore just lost interest.

Maybe the forum needs to make some advertisement again for itself, because I truly value the information that I find on this forum. I also still believe a real theme-specific forum is much nicer than a Facebook group about a certain subject.

So I think this forum, after all these years, is still fantastic and offers truly valuable information. Maybe some effort has to be made to attract some new members. Although without exagerating, to avoid an overflow of people with little to no knowledge about email.

I joined in 2004 when I was 22 years old. 22 years later (and older) I still post and read here regularly.



Ad for female members: SusanUKF used to post here very frequently, I haven't seen her in ages.
I would assume though that some people simply lost interest (for example because they found the email provider that matches all their needs and no longer search for alternatives) ; there will be members who have passed away but let's just be positive and assume the majority has just lost interest in the forum.

I still see newly registered users now and then, so this shows the forum is still relevant.
