Why do ppl use hot women as their profile picture when It's not them.

Closed

I am simply asking cus It's been on my mind for some time now and obviously also because I have no clue as to why people do this.
So just out of curiousity, why do people do this?, help me understand this better if you know the answer or think you know the answer.

I would understand if a person had a poster of a gorgeous model or some celebrity or someone else in their room but not as a profile pic.

Here's why I think they do this.

A woman who's either afraid to show herself or not good looking that wants compliments from other guys/girls.
A gay guy who wants straight men to talk to him thinking It's a girl.
A guy who just wants to fool (being a troll or just to joke) people thinking It's a hot girl but really It's not.
Someone who just likes a picture of a woman so much that they chose to have it as their profile picture.

Number 4 is probably the highest reason as to why people do this but I don't get the point anyway.

So true though. And for some it's the closest that they get to female genitalia..... aside from the day that they were born =P

It could also happen to just be a hot woman, they do exist.

But most of the time, when I see a hot girl as a pic I just assume it's a guy doing it in the hopes that he'll get some free gifts from horny guys.

Welcome to the Internet, if it's not cats or boobs, you're doing it wrong.

but you are a girl though right? i am confused by straight guys who post pictures of women as their avatar. i've been gaming with people on steam for weeks thinking they were a different gender (based on their profile pic).

Swag community, people see hot womens as "cool, awesome and attractive" it usually means that person really loves hot womens and points it to others
