So I recently added some face pictures to my profile. However I am dressed up too. Heavily made up, filtered and with a wig. I feel like this doesn't look like me. Kate and real life me are kind of different. This creates plausible deniability & who is running around with facial recognition software in their pocket anyway. However I have a job working with children and some of my more risque content may cause issue.

I was feeling okay about it but someone on another site messaged me with the following message. "Just looking at some of your new photos, I thought you were not going to share pictures they can identify you, are you taking too big a risk? ". To put this into context - only 2 people have seen both pictures of actual me and pictures of Kate - my SO and another close friend. My accounts are not linked in anyway. Though this person does know what my profession is.

You all must have jobs, lives and risk. How do you deal with it in a healthy way? Should I delete my photos? There seems to be a common thread that if someone were to out you - you could ask why are they there? Also that you don't look like masculine self - but my two are both femme? Should I delete (I don't really want to - is this what purging is like but more intense)?
