"  The benefits of using a selfie for your profile picture are manifold: No awkward cropped ex-boyfriend whose disembodied arm hangs over your shoulder like a bad metaphor. No accurate bad angles or double chin. Good pose, good lighting, the hottest version of you, and the best option overall, no? Maybe. Zoosk.com polled over 6,000 single online daters and discovered that 84 percent preferred selfies over a more formal profile picture in other people&amp;#039;s profiles. As for their own personal pages, 75 percent of women and 62 percent of men have used selfies in their profiles. (And 110 percent of men list Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind as one of their favorite movies. Seriously. All of them.) However, there are strict rules involved in dating-website selfie use. 33 percent of singles say avoid duckface, sparrow face, or any other come-hither look that could also pass for a small neurological event. 32 percent say do not include your dirty laundry and ambivalent cat in the photo. 22 percent say avoid the bathroom mirror-selfie. 13 percent are freaked out by your wanton side-boob and want you to put more clothes on, you extraordinary sideboobed hussy. Maybe the disembodied ex-arm is better after all? Follow Anna on Twitter. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
