" I'm not on DS enough anymore to know what all the issues are, however, in the past I have watched some on here, constantly post pictures of themselves (not naked), but some could say they were seductive all the while talking about their perception of themselves in a negative way....

To answer the question, yes, I think it is a symptom, they are looking for someone to tell them that they are not "fat", "ugly" or what ever....... "

" Don't dare try to tell someone that the half naked pics might get them some attention that they don't want. The DS "authorites" will be all over your ass. "
