I think what the OP was getting at is less about the claims that will obviously raise eyebrows and more about the concept of people demanding that others show pics as if they need to prove something to them. Why should men have to prove their size here if there aren't plans to meet up or interact in some other sexual manner (and this happens with guys in believably large size range as well, and since this is a forum about large penises, it seems unfair to act as though one should never mention one's size or that there won't be a conversation whe it's relevant). For that matter, why should women have to post pics to prove they're real women, again, if there's no plans to meet up or interact sexually?

I do understand and appreciate the concern that some responders have raised about getting involved in conversations and relationships with people to find out they're completely different or that they outright lie and I have definitely felt that frustration, but I think we can all agree that doesn't necessarily warrant treating people with hostility from the jump. I ever suspect anyone of being disingenuous, I simply stop associating with them. Likewise if someone pokes and prods for proof of my size or why I have no pics, I stop associating with them.

Also, I initially posted pics because I was insecure, then I was posting because I wanted the attention and to boost my ego. Now I only let my pics be viewed by people I'm following because I prefer to know who I'm sharing with because whether or not I have some connection with them determines whether or not I'll enjoy sharing. People post pics here for different reasons. it's definitely not because anyone's entitled to see them.

I've been watching, displaying photos and occasionally writing here for a number of months and something has begun to bother me... the 'necessity' of a male LPSG member proving his worth by proving his size.
A member posts mentioning his large penis and another member says "Where's your pics? I smell a fake. Fake fake fake... don't feed the trolls..."
How many times have you seen a post where the first reply is "You sound fake," and the original poster replies with, "Well I'm not, and by the way you haven't answered my original question or responded to the topic I'm actually trying to discuss..."
A recent example includes one of Trevor3's posts (in which the suspicious poster continued whining even after photographic 'evidence' was presented) and many others, from first-time posters for goodness' sake!
My own complaint is not against the suspicion itself, but the demands for evidence to sate said suspicions. What happened to the maxim, Don't feed the trolls? If a post is obviously a troll, why not ignore it, why even breathe hot air into the fakery? Instead, we have the penis police jumping at shadows, men who already have a third leg up on the 'competition' who still apparently have something to prove by demanding 'evidence' so that the precious attention from other LPSG members towards their own phallus will not be spread too thin.
Is it not enough to Just point out the truly obvious fakes, and give the rest the benefit of the doubt? This necessity of 'evidence' to prove the poster (often new to the board and in search of a Support Group) innocent, as if he is guilty until proven innocent. Some may say, "We've been fooled before." Of course, it's regrettable, but eventually unavoidable, and you'll be fooled again. Really, is it so important?
Not to mention that jumping the gun on a new member when acting the penis police, to my eyes and likely to others', makes you look like a dick.
I raise this complaint only because as I continue to notice this it interferes with my enjoyment of this community - and of course, obviously, interferes with the welcoming of new large members who are treated with suspicion until they prove their worth to the Napoleonic Penis Police.

(Did you notice that I am a photo-verified member? And why might you have checked for that?)

it's a camera trick they use basicly they stay perfectly still and take two photos one zoomed in and one zoomed out


then overlay the zoomed in photo onto the zoomed out photo that is how they make the photos look real

When I have been told or demanded that I show pics or else I am a liar, I just ignore it. You will never find a post from me where I brag about my size. I may mention it, but that is it. I went through hell when someone posted pics taken without my permission when I shared a hotel room with the offender. I nearly lost my job and had to go through a trial resulting in the offender being sentenced to prison for stalking and other items that were all related to me. I am a confident enough individual that I don't feel threatened when someone challenges me or orders me to post photos. It took me nearly a year to get pics of me off the web so I can assure you that a stranger demanding pics has absolutely no value or influence to me. When someone requests nudes politely, I explain my situation and most relent, but some beg and make promises not to share them if I just send them. I remain polite, but unrelenting. My job is very clear in this area, no nude or suggestive photos online. I do enjoy sharing my opinions, advice etc on LPSG, if that is not good enough for some, it just doesn't affect me.
