This thread topic has the same logic as women who wear almost nothing to the gym/beach/grocery store etc. Then get offended when guys notice their tits, ass, and dignity falling out all over the palce. If you don't want to attract attention, then don't adorn yourself with attention grabbing attire...in this case, a pic of a cute woman. (In real life, shorts with "juicy" written across the ass and then you're upset when you catch me checking out your butt)
In my opinion, if you don't want attention, you probably shouldn't purposefully attract it.
Also, a FR is just a way of reaching out to people. If you don't want to accept, it's your choice. Some people do not like to friend someone unless they have chatted and gotten to know each other. Some don't like to chat unless you're already on their friend list. So, you can see this puts the person who is interested in you in kind of a catch 22...50/50 shot at getting it right.....FR first?...or chatbox?...or PM?...or chat window?....or...ah fuckit, her pic ain't that cute anyway....lol
Not worth much, but that's what I think.
