after finally updating my avatar, I wonder why it is so hard to present a facial image on ones avatar? I suppose the inability to apply makeup, fear of observant wife seeing unremoved makeup-women are super astute on stuff like this when they already harbor 'suspicions', unwillingness to spend $50-100 for a professional to apply makeup so you don't look like a clown, maybe just not thrilled with your facial features-few have that sweet Oriental rounded face-, or fear of being exposed-as if 'normal' people scrutinize posts to 'find us'. For me, all of the above. If you are still 'shy' what is your reason?
