If the photo is a one of him fishing 50 yards away, I assume he’s being disingenuous. Did you mean to add that pic of you wearing ancient sweatpants, logo tshirt and flip flops to a dating site? Think again! We’re all selling each other a used car. Don’t think women only care about personality: ha and ha. Smiling is optional, I’ll tell you when you can take your shirt off!

Period. It’s one of the many photo tricks that can be done. This ‘pose’ is one of the many that is covered in most photography courses to appear thinner, hide body concerns, make breasts appear larger, etc.

I dig a woman who likes her data analysis. Let’s meet up to investigate our covariance matrix, and afterward I can test your null hypothesis.

Do gay women and men look at pictures like a straight woman or a straight man? Is there a completely different paradigm?

Those with a nice pair of breasts are more likely to show such a picture than someone where gravity has taken the victory. If you buy a used car, there are more things you may want to check than if you buy a new one. So I’m not surprised at the data.
