Not face pics, either. Just a posting of me laying across my bed. I have a homemade headboard made to look like a picket fence. (I know -- so 80's) My wallpaper is pretty unique and yes, my daughter was online on AFF and spotted my headboard and wallpaper. It was a pretty awkward phone call when she called to confirm. Oh well -- Be honest and tell em the truth. She really did deserve at least that much!

I had a "boys' night out" with some of my co-workers. During the night's events, we ended up at the local "pick-up" pub. And, of course, I was flat out scouted by two different couples. And by "scouted", I mean a full-on "Cleavage in my face/wife blowing kisses at me whenever I walked away from my mates/free drinks arriving at my table, with the husband holding up his glass in response", scouting. And these guys were dumb, but they weren't stupid! So, for the next six months, I was the butt of a bunch of "BBC for LGW" jokes.

Posting pictures on AFF did us in. AFF in particular does a very impressive job of attracting "picture posters" and allowing anyone cruising the internet to view those pictures. A deadly combination for us. We had not published nudes, but the photo we did publish along with our "profile" flew around the family very quickly when one of our "adult" children "stumbled" upon our ad.

It still amazes us on the number of swinger site posters who express a strong desire for discretion, yet post very identifiable pictures and profiles. Hardly discreet!

edit: oops, forgot we had already posted on this thread! Safe to say, our position has not changed.
