It is the absolute worst thing. A girl’s nightmare! You’re simply minding your own when you open a very specific, unwanted message. Maybe it’s a text. Maybe it’s a Snapchat. Maybe it’s from your latest match on Tinder.
Anyway, it’s not what you were planning to see, and you have to swipe out of the screen before anyone around you notices that a certain, ahem, member has appeared. That’s right, it’s a “dick pic.”
For anyone not in with modern lingo, that is when someone (most often women, but they don’t discriminate) receives a message from a man that is a picture featuring his penis. We asked a dozen NYgals to tell us about their experiences with the illustrious dick pic, and they’re not pleasant.

My friend, who was a virgin at the time, got sent a Snapchat of a guy jerking off… He is one of her coworkers. It was not asked for and she was like what?! I think it was the first dick she saw. She was 19 he was 23. The worst part? She still works with him.

Play fire with fire. Most men can’t handle getting their own grossness handed back at them. If I get a dick pic, it’s only fair that I send one back to them. My favorite revenge is sending them back a dick pic I unhappily got from someone else. Payback is a bitch, so I’ve heard.

My high school ex-boyfriend dropped into my Snapchat with a dick pic. I couldn’t believe it. First, we haven’t spoken in about three years, but even more importantly, there wasn’t much to be showing off. Hello! Needless to say, no new love connection, no response.

Have you ever looked in your Facebook Messenger requests? Gross shit.

Just don’t respond. It’s amazing how pissed men get when you don’t respond to an unwanted pic of their dick. Who knew their penis was attached to their self-worth?

He asked me for nudes. I said “nah fam” before the screenshots, but he sent me his penis shortly after this.

I slept with a guy from Ireland last summer. When he went back home to Ireland, he sent me a picture of his dick via Snapchat in February at 4 am, no message. I didn’t respond and the next morning/night at 3 am he did it again, but this time captioning “coming to NY soon.” Like it made a difference and created a plot twist. Nope.
Lynne, 23
A guy I met at a party sent me a pic. I opened the message and didn’t hit him back. He sent me like, 30 texts, each one angrier and angrier. I had to just block him. Sending me your dick was your choice, this isn’t quid-pro-quo.

My cousin was drunk and let his friend use his phone. When I opened the Snap, I got an eyeful of what I thought was my blood relative’s cock. I thought I would have to burn my eyes with acid. The fucker showed his face in a later Snap, but it was easily the worst few moments of my life.
