by the way, do you all vet the photos first? i was told there was a picture of a penis (are we allowed to use this word here?) posted on the site.

maybe i should start a topic on internet dating and such..

It's simply amazing how being in Singapore reverts some people back to being 1st-graders... ...

...so yes, you can say "penis", or "dick", or "cock", or "schlong", or any other word utilized by Austin Powers in any of his fine movies. You might want to avoid "wang" though, because there are too many Wangs and Wings in Singapore, so every time you wing you get the wong number.

The admins have better things to do than vet pictures, but anything sufficiently offensive will be taken down. I, personally, wouldn't draw the line before child porn though, because you're bound to see a penis if you date long enough. If some guy thinks that posting his family jewels on the internet is a good way to score chicks, then more power to him. (And we get to laugh at him too.)

No necessity to be sarcastic or insulting JP. I was trying to be courteous on this site, checking if certain words could be used or otherwise.

As for you all not having the time to check the site, if you can charge for it, you SHOULD vet it. Child porn or otherwise, those of us genuinely trying to meet people through dating sites, dont feel like seeing anybody's private parts. If I wanted porn, I would go to a porn site, not a dating site!

As for laughing at the guy, you know very well, they are unlikely to post pictures of their own bodies, probably picked up from another site and pasted here.

That picture was deleted at the shortest possible time.

If we allow uploading of pictures, there is bound to be abuse.

I hope the attachment below answers your question 8)

More seriously: I'm not attempting to be sarcastic or insulting here. I'm hoping that we would all behave like adults, which means we are allowed to say "penis" and even look at informative anatomical diagrams of reproductive organs. Now, if you are bothered by some freak slathering his balls all over the dating pages, then let the moderators know and we'll take care of it as needed.

Also note that, whenever I use the word "personally" in a sentence, it means I am expressing a personal opinion and not official site policy.
