Rate this level of douche-baggery

If a guy has pics of his kids on his online dating profile:
Douchebag or just clueless
What say you?

I think usually it's just cluelessness. Most men are not as aware as we are of the potential danger that could entail, plus they aren't as big on picture-taking as women so the majority of recent pics of them could be with their kids.

I vote clueless.

Clueless maybe. But then, if he is serious about dating, I would see it as a positive thing. Like he is upfront about his situation and his kids are important to him.

Agreed. L had one pic of him with his DD on his profile. I don't think it makes them a DB.

I think it doesn't necessarily mean they're a douche, but it's not a good sign and I wouldn't contact someone or respond if they had their kids in their pics.

I guess I'm clueless on this one. It never even dawned on me to consider having kids in the picture a problem.

I think it depends on the guy. Some, they may be clueless. Others could try to use the pics as a ploy.

Haines, how are you and L doing btw? Just curious, as you don't post so much anymore, or if you do I miss it.

We're doing fine, thanks for asking

clueless. i don't really see why this would be bad?

To me it shows they aren't very protective of their kids. I am way more protective of my son than to plaster his face on a dating website. I also feel like people should have a choice as to where their picture is posted online. I think it's disrespectful to post group pictures too... I wouldn't want one of my friends to post a pic of the two of us together on their dating profile.

I don't think it makes the guy a douche, but it's not exactly smart. Now, a guy posting pics of himself with kids that aren't his (like neices and nephews) is definitely a DB.
