Why are people so hateful?
A few minutes ago I posted to my local town's "Real Talk" page on Facebook. It's a page where the locals typically talk BS about whatever.
I posted asking if anyone was interested in modeling because I'm fairly new to photography and would like to learn with a model. I asked that they be 18+, just so I don't have to worry about parental consent, and posted a link to my art page (which includes the photo below), just to show what I am doing. The response I received was horrific.
I received two GTFO memes, one WTF is this S meme, a picture of a guy in super-short shorts dressing effeminately (which I suppose was supposed to offend me) and one post of someone saying "Oh boy! I'll tell my daughter.....ummmm NO!".
I can understand people not being interested. I can understand people thinking it's odd that I've only photographed a mannequin and questioning my sanity. But the response I received was nothing but hate, and that I just don't understand.
They made me feel ashamed for even asking, and I don't like this feeling.
Can anyone explain the responses I received?
