Do the questioners who have an avatar posted of a beautiful woman get more responses than those who dont have an avatar? Do pictures of beautiful woman generate more responses?

Try not seeing me. - Girl with whip
Very likely, especially so on the internet. Even the ones among us that realise how foolish it is cannot avoid having their attention drawn by pictures. It is all too easy to end up paying greater attention by responing to their posts because these are the posts that we have noticed. I would like to think that I am immune to this type of cosmetic furnishing, but I am probably not.

Whoa..I must be on the lower end of the scale if that's that's the case! I think I don't many responses becasue not mant topics I made are like others some but but not many.

It depends upon the person. As for myself, I respond to topics not pictures. I guess some people do respond according to the picture, but who takes the time to notice?

Its a ploy to get the most reponses and it does work it looks like. I'm not surprised by any means. I love Asylums pic! LOL!;) Human nature is such a trip.

I believe that the avatar that a person has, whether it is of a beautiful woman or something else that attracts the eyes, does affect how many responses a discussion gets. I changed mine yesterday and there is a big difference already.

I feel yes...as far as i have seen people with beautiful avatars esp with those of gals get more response than those with a good topic!! Many people play a money game rather than sharing their good knowledge!! The very purpose of the community is never followed...I guess mylot should take strict actions and give norms abt answering and starting discussions!!

Personally I only respond to questions that make sense to me. The content of the question and my understanding of the topic is more important than the avatar accompanying it.

I agree entirely that the topic is more important, but I also feel that the avatar could help the topic to be noticed.

I agree with this as well. More than likely the avatar is going to have no correlation with the topic at hand, so why would it sway me from reading/responding?

I am more attractive to the content of the topic rather than the avatar. I believe in the sayings," Don't judge the book by it's cover".

I have to agree that the content is the important factor, but an attractive or unusual avatar will draw your attention. This makes you more likely to notice the article. I saw that you had posted a picture of a sexy girl, which is why I noticed your response.

Wont see attract you. - Beautiful
Very true. though the topic has its significance but the avatar will always draw your attention to it.A beautiful picture will in most cases attract you even if you are unaware of it and this has been proven by my research overtime. These things are embeded in human nature and you cannot deny it or hide it. And this is just not limited to mylot only you can always look around and see beautiful people getting a clear advantage for the less mortals in wor, schools etc. it is more likely that you would pluck a beautiful flower than a good smelling one. I guess you understand what i am talking. Take care

contents are most important than the containers. Possibilities are there, but I do not have time to go and check, think about such things. I have enlisted you as my friend and I expect you to to respond one of my discussions everyday as I have done for yours.

I wouldn't say that is right because in here there are both women and men. I would say it depends on the quality of question, the number of people that are in and the mood everyone is into.

i dont realise that...i always look for the subject rather than avatar (unless it's my friends' avatars). i wont specifically respond to those with beautiful women or handsome men

if you are dumb enough to think they are the same attractive girls typing out all responses -if they are attractive what are they doing sitting alone with computer and I doubt if they are all girls too. For me discussion topics matter. No use wasting time on stupid topics as once mylot wipes them away you also lose your earnings.

i think they probably do for many reasons, one being that with a picture of a pretty girl women will aslo take a closer look whereas i dont think men would tend as much to even notice the pictures of hot guys and take a second look. its funny that when i take a closer look at someones profile thats posting a picture thats of someone famous or a model these are the people asking the yes or no and repeat questions in general i think they just dont care about getting to know people or being truthful but just here to make money, as all observations of this kind im not saying that this is the case for everyone who does this but a trend that i have noticed(i am not talking about someone putting a beautiful picture of themself or a loved one)

i saw that a somebody had a beautiful women in the avatar... and at a discussion with this subject: Am I ugly" got about 130 answers...... so my answer to your question is yes, the avatar influences responders.... to bad... they shouldn't do this....

Most probably because that's what the world we live in is like. As for my avatar it's a pretty but gothic doll. I like it but what others would class it is I don't know.

Pretty Woman - This is a photo of a decent,pretty woman.
That's a good one! Yea, I have been wondering why my friedn on mylot was going about with an avatar of a 'beautiful woman'As you said, a picture of a beautiful woman is alluring! At first I suspected that he was effiminate. Now I realize that he has good insight!

It makes no difference to me,I choose by the question.I can see how some of the younger guys might fall for it though.

I thnk somewhat they do. But more to men than to women. It's just natural, as men are visual, and like looking at pretty women.

I think they probably do get more responses because their avatar is very eye catching. I reply to a discussion because of the members topic not their avatar.

I dont think response depends on beautiful avtar.It only depends on quality of posting.I can frankly say that you like some guys had posted here some beautiful topics and I know this will continue.Its writing skill i always talking about it.
