| That's what social media is for pal. Bodybuilding forums use their gains for profile pics and anime forums use, wait for it, anime for profile pics. Shocking, I know. |

| Because I’m an underage girl in a site full of middle aged men who constantly talk about their sexual preferences on underage fictional characters |
Nubiellee said: LOLOL oh my god. And this is why all my social media with my real name linked to it is PRIVATE.For me it's the same reason I don't have social media since forever. I want my online privacy. Reading this kind of stuff is both funny and horrifying. https://www.twitter.com/kmlefranc/status/1221869659139366912 |
| I don't really use pictures of myself anywhere online. In fact, I purposely avoid getting pictures of myself taken as much as possible. |
| I think the simple reason is that you can find Friends on MAL with same taste in anime way easier with an anime pfp |
| Anonymity. Honestly, I would like for you to know me for who I am, and not what I look like. By not using my own photo, it's an attempt to project my innate personality to people who may be practicing something similar. |
| To use one’s self-chosen picture tells a lot on their self-perception, or the way they were shaped by society and life. I feel every given picture tells a great deal on every one. Though that would require to dabble in psycho-analysitics or the likes. To me, Love Live! both means much and few, and I could go on without this series, but I do regard its characters as propositions of an ideal to become. Also, the fact I generally theme my profile to suit a trend once every while might as well mean its own thing. To not get side-tracked anymore, let us go back: Why don’t I use my face as profile picture? The answer follows the precedent bit: I do not perceive myself as my face. A face grows, is generic, but generally stable, and the fusion of a series of beings that existed back then. Freedom makes us proud; faces are mostly determined; hence it feels empowering to exempt your consciousness of any determination, and to replace it with something gaining the illusion of free choice. |

| tried it once but i feel like an alien doing it here so back to anime pictures lol |

| This is basically what I look like irl anyways just imagine some heavy eye bags and frizzier hair. |
| I don't need my family and my entire community to know that I watch anime and that I hang around on MAL. |
| I already see my fcking face all the time when I wake up to wash my face, take a shower, toothbrush after eating and doing it again before sleeping. Plus anime girls are cute to look at, nice to look at and it removes my stress when I see Mei's(Rosa) face! |
  |
| i'll take one for the team and use my real life profile picture so i can falsify this thread and itll stop surfacing |

| I've gotten messages asking for naked pictures; that's why. >_> People are gross. but I like seeing chibi Zack swing his scythe more too lol |
  |
| Personally, I'm in the middle term, because I use a photo of myself, but with effect... Also, I wouldn't know which character to put ¯\_(ใ)_/¯ |
A meta é não droppar nenhum anime/mangá |
| Uhhh because you're supposed to be anonymous on internet? |
| ุฎ |
| idk this isn't facebook. this is a forum for discussing art, so it is only fitting to be represented by a character |
| Well I mean this isn't Facebook. Also the majority of people on this site is extremely introverted and insecure ab their appearance. Personally, I just think that the given anonymousness on this site is a bliss and I don't know why I wouldn't take advantage of it. For instance, my age on this site is 12 and people often get pissed off just by looking at it and it's actually quite great. That along with a bunch of shit pointless info is pretty nice too. |
| . . . |
| bcs most people here are ugly fucks including me, and it just feels weird to chat with someone ugly, you know, negative halo effect and shit |
| I mean I could do it but then it's an anime site and it make sense to use anime pictures as profile pictures plus hardly anyone ever puts their own face as their profile picture on here so anyone doing so would stand out a bit I think |
 |
| I cannot be held responsible for constant erections and moist caused by none other than my phenomenal looks. |

That's youtube and their line of work is different.They don't say controversial stuff and have their audience around them It's MAL here, unless you say controversial stuff yeah it's safe to show face Also I'm...incredibly unattractive |
| ุฎ |
| Because this is an anime site. I don't care about seeing what people look like LMAO |
My question is where are you getting these fine ass beats? I need recommendations 'cuz this shit's fire. |
 |
| There is such thing as privacy. I prefer not to use this site like it’s Facebook. |
 |
| Not taking privacy into account, it just creates this weird clash against the aesthetics of the website. You could be attractive and still look weird and out of place. |

 If you're having crippling depression, hopefully our videos will send you to another world and have you reborn as an isekai protagonist https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc8rSgYdcdZUSXXqVJhNwLw |
| Well I sometimes do but then again I see almost the 98% of the users do not upload their own photos so I decide to put anime pictures instead. |
 |
| Because they just like the privacy and anonymity of it? For my own perspective, it's kinda strange to share your face with a bunch of strangers online unless it's relatives and friends irl. |
 |
| I have a baby face and people will quickly confuse me with a teen, plus I don't like to go around showing my face to everyone cuz most people of my age are going to be jealous. And no, im not joking, it happens to me in real life. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Because I'm 1.71 (5'7) and if I take a photo of mine and resize it to MAL standards I would look like a gremlin. |
| Location: Turin, Italy |
| Because I like having anonymity on the internet. It's part of why I prefer discussion boards like this rather than social media. |
 |
 THESE BE THE ONLY 'NOODS' YOU GET FROM ME :D (my family and I refer to noodles as noods) |
