Anarchy99 asked in Arts & HumanitiesPhilosophy · 1 decade ago

are most people on here exhibitionists who seek attention by the risqueness of the questions they write?

I ask this because of the anonimity of the yahoo ID.

Also-Please explain why you feel that way

    Of course. The question seems irrelevant because of it's obviousness. We are all voyeurs in our own way. The Internet has let out introverts, thus creating more anti-social behavior at the same time. It is truly amazing how you can "reveal yourself" and not tell anybody anything about you at the same time.

    Anonymity is freedom, especially from cowards. Go buy a CB radio these days, and listen to it and talk on it, then you will realize YahooAnswers is just childs play. Yahoo will soon shut down when it realizes there are too many questions that are too risque for them to handle, or reformat the whole thing just to boggle everyone, which usually makes people be nice at first in the new format. That is until the people find the loopholes in the new format, then it repeats itself, just like history.

    No just the oposite hier they can hide behind a false ID so they quite shy und would not ask questions and answer like they do now.Closet nazies and other weiredos but some good people too.

    Take care!

    Well, without such large words....

    They are 12 year olds who think they are acting older by asking questions about sex and their large 'members'. Really, its fine just to ignore them or report them. And really, all their looking for is attenton, a reaction, and twelve year olds of the opposite gender....

    Source(s): I was 12 once.

    I can see your point and besides that they're in for a laugh when they get the responses they want and those they never expected.

    I think some people are - there is no age restriction and you can tell some are young and very immature!
