There are cons to putting up a picture on a small relatively civilised forum in a realistic scenario?

cons outweigh the pros for putting up a picture to be honest
Pros:
-People have an idea of who they're talking to
-You can show off how sexy your are
-Gain thirsty fans
Cons:
None except maybe "OMG THEY KNOW WHAT I LOOK LIKE, THEY KNOW MY NAME IS BRANDON AND THEY KNOW I LIVE IN NEW YORK CITY WHICH HAS LIKE 8.5 MILLION PEOPLE IT'S LIKE INVITING MYSELF TO BE MURDERED IN MY SLEEP"

I consider that a con. I wouldn't want people to treat me differently, even if they treat me better or worse, just because of how I look. I want people to hate me because I'm a douche or like me because I'm a good person, not change how they talk to me because of how I look. That's the main reason I am hesitant to post in these kind of threads.

I have literally never heard of that happening on here, normally it's like sometimes people won't approach you irl because of how you look but once you've established a name for yourself in a community like this people don't give a fuck.
I'm a fat fuck but get treated no differently, same with my luscious plump sista Taycat. I think that's low self-esteem talking.

This is exactly how I feel when giving away my picture or something like my name. You never know if someone will slander you or people will treat you worse just because of how you look.

It's low self-esteem yeah but I'd rather stay in my bubble and be safe than potentially being ridiculed. It's never happened but it doesn't mean that it never will. Plus I'm pretty sure that people talk in little groups slandering some people in secret.

everyone makes fun of someone when they find out how they look, whether it be out loud or in private. honestly after awhile you understand you can't hide from it and what others say won't get to you, or at least i hope that happens to those who are afraid of being made fun of about their appearance

I personally have had high self esteem for most of the latter half of my life, but it is not just a question of people not liking how you look and treating you worse because of it. I also don't want the inverse to happen. I probably sound like a douche right now but from experience on another website, I hated this a-hole and it was mutual. She took every opportunity to troll me or attempt to contradict me every time I posted, until I posted a picture of myself in a similar thread to this. Then she started complimenting and agreeing with me until I got a disturbing PM. . . That's not the kind of attention I want, I consider that worse than what people usually have in their minds of a pervert. If you're going to like me, like me for who I am, not how I look. If you're going to think I'm an idiot, do so for who I am, not how I look.
I'd be lying if I say I'm exempt of judgement people based on appearance (despite my trying not to), so don't say you are please.
