There's a Dick van Dyke joke in here somewhere.
Gotta be a Tricky Dick.
Wicked burn. Top tier domination. Would read again.
This genuinely made me laugh!
Send them a random dick pic back.
I can't understand the reasoning behind it. Do they think women like that? What's the success rate? Are women just scrolling when all of a sudden they see a dick pic and are like "wtf I'm so horny now".
Or they just think if they see tits it makes them horny so women MUST be the same way? If so I feel like it's been well established that isn't the case....
It's probably a mix of throwing shit at the fan, power dynamics, the thrill of the taboo and probably a little bit of a humiliation fetish. It's never about the receiver. It's an aggressive act.
the principle equivalent genital exchange.
they think if dick pic is send vag/boob pic will be the response

A picture is worth a thousand words
"Hi I am...I am looking for sex"
If you are using a dating website and actually trying. You'd look at a profile, read their bio, and then send a message that had something to do with their bio. (Could also comment on pictures)
But it is a numbers game to an extent and most messages sent will never see a reply.
So what is the least effort highest reward thing to send first? Private picture.
They are hoping that the person opens it and it catches their eye.
If their first thought is to send a private picture, they are not really looking for small talk. So it has the added bonus of weeding out non-sexual people.
It's no risk, high reward
Or they just think if they see tits it makes them horny so women MUST be the same way?
This one. The problem is that by the time 90% of the hetro cis male population of one generation has figured this out, a new generation of teen hetro cis males are right behind them. A better sex education class would cover this.

Got any DOIs to share? I'd like to read about some bioreactors and polymer physics.
