Ever thought about sending a Dick pic to someone? Here are some top tips and examples for getting it right and not offending people when you do.

These are the sort of pictures women in tech **want to see**, not the ugly and offensive things you have been sending them without asking!

If pictures of Dicks offend you then you should probably leave (but I have no idea why they would!).

## 1. Choose a good Dick picture
Look nobody wants a blurry picture of a Dick, we want to see Dicks in all of their glory. 

Here is a great picture of a Dick that would be welcomed in any DM.

Notice the long hard shaft in his hand, that is what people want to see!

## 2. Black Dicks are also welcomed
This Dick has to be one of my favourites in this list. If you have never come across this Dick, then you are in for a real treat!

I am sure you will watch many videos with this Dick in now, and I hope you share similar Dicks with others.

If you have never heard of Dick Gregory before you should go check out some of their stuff. A very articulate and entertaining speaker, as well as funny.

## 3. A bald Dick is not always best
Here is an example of a bald Dick that would not be welcomed in most DMs.

Be careful which Dick picks you share, some of them may still be offensive!

Dick Cheney, not the best example of a Dick.

## 4. Some people even enjoy pics that aren't human
Sometimes people want some non-human picks in their DMs.

Don't worry I have you covered there too.

The perfect guitar pick for someone named Dick.

## Yes this is satire!
The above are acceptable Dick pics to send people, and even then DMing people without them asking and without a good reason is not advised.

This article was originally prompted as I saw 3 tweets in the space of 4 days from women (assumed gender) who were complaining about receiving unsolicited pictures of penises.  

While this may be a silly post the message is important.

Don't send **unsolicited** pictures of your penis to anybody, end of discussion. 

**It is vile behaviour.**

So now you have a) know how to behave properly on tech Twitter, you should b) go do something productive and stop reading my silly articles!

## You are brave for releasing this
I wasn't going to, I wrote it in August and thought I may have crossed a line.

But in the back of my head I thought it might cheer some people up so was torn.

In the end I asked Twitter what to do:

![Twitter poll on whether to release this article, 45.5% "yes, it is hilarious", 36.4% "if you are feeling brave", 0% "No, you crossed the line" and 18.2% "make your own decisions"](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/ht1u5au57d4lwz90fl7m.png)

And obviously nothing ever went wrong listening to the Twitter crowd...so here we are!

Have a great weekend, I hope this article gave you a smile!
