I personally think it is a persons right to decide what they are comfortable showing on cam.
It boils down to the persons comfort level and generosity in showing what they do.
Watching another persons cam is a privilege not a right.[/QUOTE]

Perfectly stated, I believe that just about answers the question :clap:

Oh yeah, that seems like a great solution, except if that were the case every girl would have 3/4 of the room on "ignore" because they will persistently badger you. and then say "I'm shy..I don't want to show my face".

Chat is supposed to be fun, it's supposed to be mutual, it's not a side show and it's not free porn. Nobody is saying that everyone should be on cam, but we are saying that if you choose not to, then don't impose yourself on those who do.

I understand how it can be annoying if someone is asking for something that they themselves aren't willing to give. Guys get it too. Many times in chat I was asked for pictures or to cyber by men and women with no profile whatsoever.

But it could be said that it cuts both ways. Because you choose to show your face on cam, don't impose your will on those that don't. Accept it or move on.

...

I have seen LEX'S face even!! ....

Yes, but I did not show the entire room. :p I have been stalked, remember?

good points ALL!!
I would love to chat with the faceless man!!! HA HA!!!

I show my face all of the time.." I am NOT shy!! Why should I be.? The closet I came to showing was hard NIPS in my shirt and a few slips of showing my undies!!:eek:! I am never NUDE..EVER!! Only docs's and hubby will see that. :redface:

You never seem to complain when I am showing a cam shot of my chest, shoulders and arms... :p

I wonder if guys know how it feels though, for a woman to be sitting there fully showing their face on cam while theyre hiding behind a blank profile with no cam. Obviously if youre jerking off you might not want the face in the same shot, but if you're just sitting there chatting, what's the big deal?
If you want to be anonymous then do not DARE be asking me to strip for you, or asking me how big my boobs are or getting personal with me in any shape or form. It would be exactly like walking into a cocktail party with a mask on your head and trying to hit on girls. We want to know who we are talking to...period.
If you don't want anyone to see you then maybe video chat is not for you. I know the majority of females who like to chat are tired of being hit on, harassed, or heckled by these faceless people.
Some will choose to be totally anonymous, some will only cam occasionally which is fine, (I just saw Joll for the first time in last week -what a cutie!) but...
Show something...make an effort, be who you claim to be, or if you don't want to play just lurk and don't get obnoxious with those who DO show themselves.

PS All of the above is especially annoying when these namelsss, faceless people want to private chat or ask you to Yahoo with them...the answer 99.9% of the time will be NO!

I agree. If someone tries to order me around and refuses to turn a cam on or stop, I prohibit their viewing me. This also goes for people wanting to private chat--if I deny it, I do NOT want to chat with you. These idiots can only be stopped by adding them to your BLOCKED list in the chat room.

I'd love to show my face & body on cam, but the few times I tried it the woman didn't want to put their cam on. Not even to show their face and fully clothed. It kind of took my motivation away from wanting to cam.

So it's not just guys. Women are the same way.
I have been chatting in LPSG Chat rooms since the day I joined. The REAL women all have cams and DO show. I've seen them all. I am betting that was really a man (like that Amanda who kept trying to talk and flirt with me after I kept telling "her" I was gay).

I would like to have a career in academia some day, and the last thing I would want barring me from that is participation on this site -- camming or otherwise.

Employers are also more likely now to hunt you down via the Internet just to make sure they know what they're getting. I enjoy beer, but it's the same reason why I don't tag pictures of me stripping and going apeshit. People balance the joys of participating in different sites on the Web with the responsibility of revealing enough about themselves to keep up a veil of privacy.

See their is a solution to this. Show your face and close out your cam and come back and show your cock...
Lex, if I seen your face already, I won't keep asking. I just get PISSED off that these FOOLS want me to flash ( which will never happen) and they are not wanting to show me their MUG. I don't mind if your not HOT..." Just let me see you at least ONCE.

I get what your saying it is kind of scary for a female. But, so NOT scary for a male..."

As a person who doesn't show face, I completely disagree with this point, DGirl.

First of all, let's consider the reasons why people don't show face.

1) Perhaps they have a career that could be jeopardized if their face was exposed. (ie, celebrity, doctor, teacher, etc) I know it sounds silly but with technology being what it is, screen caps, and webcam feed "catchers", you'll have to forgive me if I only show my cock to some random person online that I've only spoken to a few times.

2) Perhaps they don't look like their avatar (as mentioned by cigarbabe, in her own way)

3) Perhaps they are havng a bad day (look fat, acne, etc)

4) Some people just like to keep the world of the internet seperate from their real life. It's two worlds to them and they can't meet. It's a personal preference, and while I don't always udnerstand it, I do respect it.

I'm sure there are others, but I'm drawing a blank at the moment.

Having said all this, I tend to agree most with number 1. I love seeing faces on cam, just like you do, Dgirl, but I'd never risk my identity unless I knew you well.

However, if I can be honest, I suspect most of the people in here are either 2 or 4.

Oh a fair point, and if the guy isn't a c-word, he'd understand if you DIDN'T show your face.
