i do.... and the creepy strangers who add me as a contact. especially if all their other listed contacts are "hot girls" or sex-related icons..

Every single time. One creepy perv attracts like... pretty soon you've got a pervstorm on your hands. Best to eradicate all mode of connection.

@Jay: I think this may be a "different for girls" thing.
@lucy.bird: I recently had someone add an old photo of me as a favorite. It's not even remotely sexual, but the person who added it (and didn't add me as a contact) is all really ick amateur porn.

@slackmistress OMG those are the worst... because then you're scratching your head as to WHY??

@slackmistress Yeah, that's kinda what I was thinking.
I do, however, think about that sort of thing if I were to favorite one of my female friends' pictures.

I don't think anyone's done that... except once with a picture of my bruised and bleeding legs after a fall. I think I did block that one.

I get a lot of bears who like my pics. Beard and bald head seems to do the trick.

yeah. i've had a few man creepers on flickr. the only one i blocked was the guy who only had cock pix on his page.

@Khaaaan: Ha!
Altho the truth of it is that I am not DO NOT OBJECTIFY ME because let's face it, I twitter/blog/ustream/flickr/facebook. It's just when I KNOW they're creep that it freaks me out. That's probably horrible and sad, but there you are.

Usually if someone faves a pic and is creepy, I immediately make the picture friends only. That takes care of the problem.
The last stranger to friend me, though...god, I clicked on his page, and I got the warning, but I'm ...ehh whatever, what could it be?! IT COULD BE A PAGE FULL OF CLOSE-UPS OF COCKS IS WHAT IT COULD BE. He was very swiftly blocked because c'mon, I like dicks and all but that's just gross.

My favorite might have been the time I posted pics of the embroidered handkerchiefs that my grandmother left me, and I got the pics favorited by a hankie fetishist. Ewwwwwww..................
I rarely even notice.
