This question isn't for just you but anybody who would make either their name or real photo or both part of their profile.

Other than that, thanks everybody for the awesome answers so far!
Umm there are lots of Christina's in the world and my pic? Why not. It's one of the few pics of me I like lol. It's not like anyone is going waste time tracking and stalking me. Stigma? Sure there is but do I care? Nope.
