What makes a good profile?

Hi

I've been on and off this and have had a chat or two with people but the conversation dies or they just stop replying. Not a complaint, I understand this is a spare time sort of thing

I was wondering if my profile needs something extra.

Feel free to be critical of it, just trying to make some new friends etc

Thanks for taking the time

My only comment would be the photos are off putting. The only body shot in the bathroom mirror isn't great and all the others are extreme close ups of your cock which most women find a turn off.

Ok. Thanks. What sort of variety do you think I should have up?

I obviously cannot speak for everyone but I personally like classy pics that leave a little to the imagination. Nice torso, bum pics, in boxers etc so we can see a little of your body.

Only other comment might be to try using self timer shots if you don't have a friend to help. Well edited 'from a distance' pictures look 10 times better than any selfies.

Showing your body - not your cock - is far better. My wife likes to see erect cock pictures - but not the low quality pictures you have posted and most of the body should be in the shot with the cock.

Try not to have lots of clutter in the background of pics.

Well i haven't followed any of the advice yet. I was going to see the general feedback people were kind enough to give.

My intention was to take the feedback and when I get some free time (because I don't spend my every waking moment in here) I would follow whichever advice I felt might improve my profile.

It's advice, you know a suggestion. I am under no obligation to follow any of the suggestion

But thank you for reminding me I'm a worthless male.

But I had a look at yours. I'll do my best not to come across like that.

Realistically: you can post whatever you want. There will always be people liking what you write or post whilst others will just be skipping to the next one.

I don't mean to say this in a negative way; it's just a matter of taste. What some people might like will probably turn off others and that's the beauty of it.

Just be honest, straight forward but not arrogant.

I need to agree on cock pics: if those are the only ones available on a profile it's likely you'll be overseen.

Still, there's space for everybody. It just takes time, especially for single men, due to the pushy nature of some people who clearly doesn't know what boundaries are.

Best of luck.

For me, a good profile is one that is well written, shows the person's sense of humour and personality and tells me exactly what it is they are looking for and can offer. As for the photos, cock pics, as others have said, are a turn off. Tasteful body shots and face pics are always good. The profile pic is important, yours is a little difficult to make out. Nice torso or smiley face photos attract me to look further.

Your current photos are a total turn off and show little of you.

Ouch! I think he may just be wanting to get people to look at his Willy?

OP.. If you really want help.. Look at old posts on this stuff.. lots of good advice.. plus you don't get yours destroyed by others for shits n giggles. There is no perfect profile. it's how you feel at the time.

But listen to people if they're dishing out advice for free.

True it was good advice.. no man wants to hear his winky is a huge turn off though.

I think the general feeling is cock pics are a turn off, I don't see her saying his cock is a turn off. Women want to see more than a cock on a profile.
