"Because they can. It would be a really good feature on fab to put a limit on messages sent without reply. " This is genius. | |||

"Can't believe some of those messages/real life comments you got OP! I was reared with a fear of an Irish Mammy armed with a wooden spoon and teachers that would give you a good clip on the ear for cheekiness. I fully respect when someone says No. I do wonder if a lot of the disrespect comes from an under 30 crowd? Having said that, I don't want to generalise as I know that the sale of wooden spoons has decreased but I hear they're still in use in some stand up households " Definitely has nothing to do with age. I honestly think it's because we are a disposable society, everything at our fingers sort to say, "if I dont give it up the next one might so why bother making an effort." As for the question op asked I think its just cause they can with no repercussions doubt 99% of them would even think of speaking to you in person like that. I think a automatic block regarding messages would be great so you send me one and I don't reply and than you send a second one and I dont reply on the third attempt, system automatically replies to the sender "Computer Says No" | |||

And a general IP blocker would be good too. So you block one pushy dickhead and when he pops up under his second profile a week later and tries again, he’s automatically blocked. Also, nothing worse than seeing said men on their 3rd profile that month post the same smarm all over the forums. Over and over. Barf. | |||

"The guys who dont abuse are here. Were just being respectfully quiet" I know they are. I’ve made lifelong friends and lovers but seriously, it’s ridiculously hard work filtering them out. | |||

"OP, I can only imagine the volume of these messages. Filters help a lot but probably also blocked the right guys. Im lucky enough as no interest in men I am on fab around 6 months, and definitely younger men have more respect than 40+ The reason may vary but in my opinion most of the guys 40+ are married/ attached, and being rejected is not what they expected, so the anger won. I am pretty sure most of the lads would never say something abusive when.meeting us in the park, pub or on the steet. They think 'Iam anonymous, let's put her down' And for the men who are gents : its not about you, be yourself, have patience, and a lovely lady will meet you some day" Phew! Again Was getting ready for arant before I read the last paragraph. I think I might not be the intended audience | |||

"Why do (some ) men take it as a personal goal to push a woman’s boundaries? Why when women say “no” or even my favourite “Thanks but no thanks” do these men think that means “no really, ask and ask and ask again”? Why is No so universally disrespected on here. My boundaries are there because I’ve decided I don’t want to do something. I don’t have to explain this to ANYONE. I don’t have to justify them to ANYONE. So if anyone could possibly explain why when a woman clearly says No, her inbox will be subsequently filled with pleading, pathetic, abusive or repetitive messages. Why won’t you go bareback? You said you did it once with a lover, why not me? I’ll make you like anal. All women are really bi (a couples’ gem) Why can’t we fuck tonight? You only don’t like being fingered cos you’ve never had it done by me. You look like a hooker but I’d never pay you I’ll make you like me fucking your face. I know you said you weren’t interested but PLEASASEEEE reconsider. I could dominate you, you just think you don’t want it. And before the butt-hurt men and couples come on thinking I’m the only one that gets these messages? Think again. My block list is ridiculously long and added to daily, but OMG, a new profile or “a friend of mines profile” pops up every day!!! Why can’t women just say f**king NO and it be respected!? Any insight would be appreciated because I’m almost done with it. " I'm gunna go on a whim here but I have this feeling you have just recently been approached by this or these individuals But the answer to your question is quite simple the word 'no' is the trigger word for those that are a little unhinged and therefore probably needs to see a psychiatrist or something | |||

"It is really awful. I don't even bother reading messages these days because I don't want to deal with it. Even trying to convince me to meet during the pandemic even though I make it very clear I won't. And in my experience the 40+ men are the most entitled and least respectful demographic on fab. " Agreed 1000%. The young lads have way more respect. My advice to all Fab Females just don't reply... Sometimes you can get the jist of a msg before even opening it... So Don't Open It. Like who do some Males on here think us Females are... Stay Safe Girls | |||

"I genuinely can't answer the why. I'd hazard a guess that because the type of site we are on some people think everyone on it is a rabid Horndog with an insatiable desire to be fucked every which way by as many people as possible!! If its any consolation, men get them too(from other men) I've blocked a few that won't take no for an answer even though it says "straight" on my profile. I changed my filters now, but the ones who have mailed before I done that can still mail for some reason. Anyway, short answer is I don't know but I reckon my guess is fairly close to the mark." Once you have answered someone or winked at someone they can then message you outside your filters. | |||

"I suppose people can be assholes no matter what their age Genuinely believe its the way someone is raised at home as to whether they're respectful or not towards other people. People are not used to being told no anymore " This Just as in the real world, most assholes can be easily avoided. It's best to do your own searching around here. | |||

"And to prove the point, I’ve been called a useless fat bitch twice since breakfast. Oh and I’ve received 5 cock pics. The thing is that nearly all the guys I’ve gotten this sort of disrespect or absolutely bullshit off have been men I’ve either met on the forums, through a “game” or been guys I’ve chatted to for a while. It’s like a switch goes off and they turn into assholes. One guy with his 3 profiles is all over the forums... at least it’s well known he’s a scumbag. It’s proof in point that they ruin for everyone else as I’m pretty sure I won’t be chatting to anyone new for a while. " If it keeps happening you may have to name and shame him. Might make it stop. Can you report people on here? | |||

It seems to be if they have mailed you before you set the filter they can mail you again. For men, we don't get as inundated as women so the block button sorted it after stting filters. I can't understand why it happens and I'm embarrassed for those who do it. Also embarrassed as they are making men look bad. | |||

"There is always a certain minority of men or women that can't take a no or rejection and react like described above or worse. I think on Fab those levels are amplified and now during lockdown amplified even mmfurther. Its not acceptable at all but I assume the only way to reduce it is to block or ignore as many type of these people as possible unfortunately.." I agree that covid seems to be amplifying the issues that have always been part of fab. There's more people around out of boredom, and I'd hedge my bets most of them are just here looking for wank material or to troll. As frustrating as it is you have to just ignore and block. These type of people aren't going to change their ways. In fact some of them get off on stirring shit and seeing the various threads about it. I get fed up of it all too op, sometimes taking a break away is healthy and necessary. | |||

"I find really annoying that its us women who have to find strategies to avoid the abhorrent behaviour of men. I mean, Its their responsibility to learn the adequate ways to aproach a woman, specially on here. If any man values their health and looks to have at least a satisfactory sexual life. Wouldn't you consider to try to make a better effort. " You are of course right. Its the individuals responsibility to behave appropriately, And learn how they can do better The fundamental flaw in that as i see it, is you are giving them way too much credit, assuming they have the intelligence to realise they need to change or improve, and then actually doing something about it! Im still shocked on the most part that men dont just know how to behave. It shouldnt be hard to treat anyone with kindness? (I also give people too much credit. The world has some horrible people) | |||

They will not want to learn new behaviours or some may not even have capability to learn unfortunately. Fab is just an amplified representation of society and although it is not right that women especially are forced to come up with strategies to avoid this type of behaviour it is something that will unfortunately continue while some people on here can't control their emotions and behaviour when it comes to all things sex related. | |||

This concerns me about my own generation " I seem to be the odd one out here and don't actually get that much crap from the over 40s that's why my filters are set around that age .And I don't drop them anymore for games etc on here. But why would it concern you if you don't do it ? I really don't get the whole apologising for others behaviour. I don't apologise for some of the women on here who can be just as bad as the men for abuse . Like others have said farther up it's the internet it's going to happen anyhow no about of threads and posts will change that.People hide behind keyboards on here they give abuse because they know they can ,they want reactions off others .You can usually see the gist of a message before you open it so if it's anyway abusive just delete it unread and block .Same as the people who can't take no ,delete the message if you don't give a reaction they get bored pretty fast. | |||

And also judging a person by just one trait is not fair. Hurting people will always try to hurt. Obviously its not our responsibility to go healing everyone or stoically resist, but maybe if we all contributed with our 2 cents. Like this thread and others on the forums help to discuss this important topics and might help save a life in the fab world, not for us but just for the sake, as you say to be kind.

"When a poor randied up fellow joins Fab at first he is governed by the little brain found between his two testes just under the shaft of the penis. It is a known fact that this little brain is oblivious to all reason and common sense. In fact it's so bad that the world is jumbed upside down, where everything's meaning is the polar opposite! No means yes! Down means up! Take it out means push it in further! I would like to see you again means fuck this I'm outta there ASAP! Unfortunately, for males it is difficult, not impossible, but difficult to overrule this little demon, driven by one soul purpose of procreation! Said little demon is responsible for many man's tragedies throughout the annals of time. Here's some examples: When Caveman Ugh McGrrrowl first used a bone to club a love rival over the head, it was to gain the affection of a local cave hottie. The wheel was invented so man could get away faster in a post coital state! Christopher Columbus travelled the seas looking for Indian Poon only to stumble upon America. WW2 was borne from a cranky little Austrian being sexually frustrated as result of some Jewish cockblocking. And most recently, man traveled to the Moon in search of Moon Poon. Finding none there they're now searching Mars! So the next time a randy bugger persistes even though No was said a few times. Say "Hey fuckface, stop listening to your pecker and have some goddam manners and respect"! " | |||

Plenty of those who feign social graces are as dangerous as the obvious ones. A certain proportion of the human population have personality disorders which mean that they can't be "fixed", but they can certainly fake nice. Here, as in the world offline, we choose who to associate with. Report and block otherwise. | |||

" If it keeps happening you may have to name and shame him. Might make it stop. Can you report people on here?" I report frequently. I have zero shame in this. There’s even people who have replied to this specific post who have been reported LOL. Just shows how stupid they are. You can’t name and shame unforch, I have a list in my head of users with 2+ profiles, men who have stolen other users photos, men who insult women who say no. As for a lot of the other stuff, you can’t report people who are dickheads. People who you chat to for weeks who then turn on you when you say you don’t do anal/bareback/BDSM/dogging. My approach at this stage is to avoid couples (easily done judging by the caliber of comments on this thread) and really anyone who throws up the slightest red flag immediately. I refuse to turn into a “ dos and donts” list owner as I think they are pathetic. What very few peeps seem to understand is that these aren’t just blokes who message me twice and turn into shithead, these are guys who I’ve chatted to for weeks. Then suddenly my boundaries don’t count? That’s why filters don’t count. That’s why this is about an inherent issue with entitlement. | |||

The people who are abusing you on here via messages won't change their ways so it is up to the 'victim' to put in place a way to stop or reduce this type of behaviour. FAB has no way of dealing with it other than you reporting the profile and then banning people but there will always be an element of rude and abusive people wanting to treat woman badly on here which is shocking to say but also realistic. The suggestion above is a valid way of reducing these type of messages imo | |||

" Your opening post can easily be misread as the ever returning topic of not accepting a 'no, not interested' after an initial contact. But this makes it much clearer and I've come across this phenomenon too. I put it down to arrogance and ignorance of selfishly pushing their own sexual agenda or even having a sexual routine that will be applied every time. There's very little interest in a mutual shared experience of joy or customising to the individual you're meeting. There's very little you can do about it but to steer clear when you sense pushiness, refine your selection process and listen to your gut feeling. A give away is often that those peeps are normally rather bad listeners and have a crap short term memory. Interests listed can give you a hint sometimes too. | |||

"Because they can. It would be a really good feature on fab to put a limit on messages sent without reply. This is genius. " Oh my godddddd please let us have this!! | |||

" That’s why this is about an inherent issue with entitlement. " Couldn't agree more. I'm sick to death arguing with men on Fab and elsewhere about my very basic boundaries, like personal safety. If a woman says she wants to meet publicly and you can't be bothered or don't think she's worth that respect or effort, just move on. Don't debate with me about the reason for my boundaries and try to logic me out of them - it has the exact opposite effect. Even beyond that, there's a lot more to a good meet than simply fancying someone. Practicing discernment and paying attention to whose boundaries MATCH yours will actually be more successful than pushing someone who's already not interested. | |||

"Lots of human behaviour is unexplainable. I'm guilty of calling people out for their behaviour on fab but I know I'm pissing against the wind most of the time and I certainly won't apologise on behalf of anyone but myself. Nothing that is said on these forums makes a blind bit of difference. Arseholery and shithousery is everywhere so fab isn't unique. If I was a woman on here I'd be looking at other red flags apart from those already mentioned. Forum goldfish who agree with a comment but a short while later after a few circuits of the bowl they then agree with another comment offering the exact opposite opinion to the previous one. People who never offer an opinion of their own and spend their time just agreeing with others. Those "gentlemen" who misinterpret the meaning of that term and believe it only applies to their interaction with women and are incapable of talking civilly to those without a vagina. Fab is full of intelligent women who can hold their own in any conversation including on the forums and don't need white knights. Unfortunately it is also full of people who are more than capable of creating online personas and buoyed by the illusion of being "popular" think they can say and do what they want. In the last few days we've had another brilliant thread about body positivity where everyone was supportive but unfortunately it was quite obvious that not all the comments were sincere as some were made by people who are always the first to mock or belittle. Just like some of the comments on this very thread are insincere especially from people who have stolen pics from others and then been abusive when called out on it.
