You guys are cracking me up. I haven't spent much time on OKC, as I prefer the lower class of lonely heart on POF myself. After a few years experience with it and other dating sites, there are a few things that seem to be universal truths. First, nobody ever looks like their picture and its usually a waste of time to put one up. Second, our appearance changes ever so slightly daily. Not a big deal unless five years worth of days have passed since the picture was taken. Then it's a very noticeable difference and can be quite a big deal Third, if there is no picture, there's usually a reason. Many are married and some are just butt ugly. Lets face it, does it really doesn't matter how great somebody's profile is? If they're ugly, then they're just ugly. There's not much they can do about it except show a picture of their shaved torso, butt, boat, car, horses... fill in the blank.

For the record, not all body builders are grotesquely ripped and pumped. There really are some people who just work out to look and feel good without deep underlying motivation or being an "athlete". I'm one of them. Do I enjoy looking good? Of course I do, but that's secondary to feeling good. Or at least it is to me. I don't find it necessary to spend hours in the gym or shave myself, but that's just me. Forty five minutes a day, three days a week and I'm good to go. To be completely honest, I don't remember anyone ever complaining because I looked nice. But I have had more than one tell me I looked better in person. Its always better to be a pleasant surprise than a dissappointment.

Thank you for posting all of this. It has been most entertaining.
